Polartec® Alpha®
Polartec® Alpha® is a material created in the USA. It is made of 100% recycled and biodegradable polyester fibers woven from recycled plastic bottles. Thanks to the hollow fibers, Polartec® Alpha® provides thermal insulation and maintains a constant body temperature, but at the same time allows freer breathing, constant air exchange and comfort. Polartec® Alpha® is essentially a hydrophobic fabric (absorbs less than 1% water), making it ideal for outdoor use, does not retain moisture and dries incredibly quickly.
Polartec® Alpha® supports the following standards:
- Oeko-Tex
- Bluesign Standard Fabric Certifications
- Compliance Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC)
- Higg Index (Complete the Environmental and Social/Labor Modules)
- RSL (Restricted Substances Lists)
- CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission)
- Lead Certification & Flammable Fabrics Act
