performance fabrics
powering next generation workwear
why alsico performance fabrics?
We are driven by our brand promise. In order to protect the world to ensure our garments reflect that promise, we must use fabrics that meet our demanding criteria and performance levels. This is why our performance fabrics, developed through our alsico academy, exist.
Our team of experts works tirelessly to create the most innovative, sustainable, and high-performing fabrics possible for the environments we serve. Ensuring the garments we create always adhere to our exacting standards.
Humans have utilised fabrics and skins to protect their bodies for thousands of years. Protection from the cold, heat and the environments they found themselves in. From prehistoric early man using hardened animal hides and woven reeds to protect against predators, to the middle ages where blacksmiths forged molten metal into spears and armour. Protection is the most natural human instinct we possess, it’s programmed into our DNA.

our process
Is it the best it can be? What can we do to make it better?
What are the wearers wishing could be changed?
We are a garment making business. But that doesn't go far enough to explain our obsession. Our obsession with needing to create better. Our design teams first ask deep rooted questions, speaking to workers around the world about their experiences, does your garment protect? Do you feel safe? Is it comfortable, does it allow you to do your job to the best of your abilities?
Once we have the answers we can then begin researching and experimenting. Everything we do in garment creation is done in house, ensuring we control the entire journey from concept to delivery.
Technologies
Starting at the makeup of fabrics, we explore the science behind anti static, anti bacterial, stretch, softness, fire retardency and high visibility.
Fabrics
We take our technologies and implement into our performance fabrics, creating sustainable and highly effective fabrics for hundreds of workplace environments.
Garments
Our design team take the fabric and create garments designed from our user research, trials and historical insights. Garments that perfrom and react in the way the worker expects, day in, day out.
