We are humbled every day by moving messages:
"Thank you! I just wanted to send y'all a message and let you know that I'm extremely grateful for your company. I needed to buy elastic but couldn't because it was all sold out, so I purchased from you. I needed to buy wicking Jersey, I couldn't because the normal place I ordered from shut down. I was able to order from you. I needed PUL and couldn't order but was able to order from you. Long story short, Wazoodle saved my business and I appreciate it! Life long customer here!" - A customer

We are trying our best to help. We want to remember all of you, please share your story at this link https://www.wazoodle.com/wall-of-heroes.html

The recent PPE shortage should be an eye-opener not only for the policy-makers but for the public also and the businesses that invest overseas only to supply the end product to USA while creating jobs overseas. Each part of the supply chain from fiber to fabric to PPE means more manufacturing jobs i

As social distancing becomes the norm, more and more requests are coming for Silvadur treated antimicrobial fabrics. Please help prevent spread and save lives by wearing masks and following safety protocols.

Antimicrobial products kill or slow the spread of microbes or microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, protozoans, and fungi such as mold and mildew. The antimicrobial effect of silver ions (Ag+) has been known for centuries.

AKAS Textiles

AKAS is a textile manufacturing and design company with over 100 years of experience in design, engineering, raw materials sourcing and fabrication. Our expertise in fibers, LEAN manufacturing, quality control, change management and supply chain, and our focus on sustainability have made us a global leader in Made in the USA fabrics that are safe for the environment, and for end users.

We design and produce high-performance fabrics imagined by entrepreneurs and industry giants alike. We also create our own fabrics and have engineered some of the top brands for absorbency, food safety, organics, athletic performance, protection and more. These are stocked as roll goods available for applications in a wide range of industries including apparel, automotive, food, furniture, industrial, healthcare, hospitality and the military.

Made from the best yarns available, our textiles have gone up in space with U.S. astronauts, they’ve been part of the Winter Olympics torch, and they are used in gear for America’s armed forces. They perform every day throughout the world, and they meet mil spec, food-safe, flame retardant and other U.S. certifications, the most exacting in the world.

We are one of the few textile manufacturers that both sources raw materials in the USA, and partners exclusively with American mills for production. That’s because when we came to the USA, we brought along a mission: to put American mills back to work, and to return pride and global leadership to this country’s textiles industry. In six years, we’ve added more than 650 jobs to the trade, and increased production at our mills from two to four days a week.
