Let's bond over chemistry. Alta™ is not toxic to humans or the environment. In fact, coffee is more toxic than Alta™.

environmental impact

At Applied Textiles, we think it is important to know chemistry and understand safe chemistry. Alta™ utilizes a customized formula that is human and environmentally compliant.

Alta™ passes EPA, Cal Prop 65, AB 2998, and EU Reach standards for safer chemistry. Specify Alta™ to increase the life cycle of fabrics and furniture, make fabric easy to clean, eliminate harsh cleaning products and enjoy permanent water and oil-based stain repellency.

let’s bond over chemistry

Alta™ is made of 95% water and 5% custom solution

After treatment, there is 0.01% of an ounce of chemistry across 1 yard of fabric.

Alta™ = less chemistry + more performance

Most unbranded soil and stain resistant (SR) finishes WILL NOT repel oil and WILL NOT be permanent.
