Iyo tuvuze kuri "imyenda yumutekano" amahitamo arahariumwenda ugaragaza cyaneibyo bitezimbere kugaragara mumucyo mucye mugihe ugikomeza kugaragara neza kandi bigezweho. Byongeye kandi, hari imyenda yagenewe gutanga uburyo bwo kwirinda ingaruka mbi ziterwa nimirasire ya UV mugihe ikomeje kugumana imiterere yoroheje, ihumeka, kandi nziza. Hariho n'ibikoresho bihari bifite ubushobozi bwo kuba butarinda amazi, birwanya abrasion, na mikorobe. Ibi bifasha ibyo bikoresho gukoreshwa muburyo butandukanye, harimo ibikoresho byo kurinda umuntu ku giti cye, imyenda yo hanze, n'imyenda ya siporo. Inganda z’imyenda zateye intambwe igaragara mu myaka yashize, cyane cyane mu bijyanye n’imyambarire n’imyambaro y’umutekano. Iha abakiriya uburyo bwagutse bwo guhitamo muburyo bwimyambarire n'umutekano, gukora ibicuruzwa bifite akamaro kandi bishimishije muburyo bumwe.
