DuPont is bringing the brand promise of the DuPont oval to consumers throughout the United States with a new line of consumer products made by DuPont. The current portfolio of products fall under three categories: Outdoor Living, Home Safety, Surface Solutions. “Innovation” to both retailers and consumers means several things: product improvements; better in-store merchandising so that “shopping” is easier; improved packaging and applications. We think about all these areas when developing products for the consumer space. The current consumer offerings are provided below.
