Custom Alpha Direct - now available!

Polartec’s Alpha Direct is a premier active insulation material. Makers and companies have been keen on this fabric for a few years, but until now it’s been difficult for anyone to get their hands on more than simple colors and predetermined patterns.


We’re leveraging our years of collected knowledge and experience printing on technical materials to offer DIYers and companies a world of opportunity for custom printed Alpha Direct. 


We’ve never been willing to settle for what others give us and we don’t plan on stopping. If big companies have custom colors then you should too. Continue your custom product lines or DIY exploits with printed Alpha Direct.
