Started in 1993 out of a desire to produce environmentally friendly t-shirts, it has grown to become an internationally known brand and we are soon celebrating our 20 year anniversary! Not only is TEC a family run business, the goal has always been to have a personal relation to everyone we work with, whether that be the factory owners, our partners in China, our clients and distributors, shop owners and of course our employees.
