About us

The market demands respect for the environment, the use of less aggressive techniques and materials and a constant optimisation of resources.

Pura Alternativa was founded in 2000 in the city of Barcelos, in the north of Portugal.
In addition to producing for other brands, it owns the Skulka brand specializing in street wear.

Orlando Marco Maciel, the company's owner and administrator, is in charge. With more than 20 years ' experience working in the textile sector, he maintains an assertive and up-to-date vision of it, always with an eye on the future.

Technological innovation is constant, in an effort to increase production capacity as well as the variety of techniques and processes available.
The relationship with customers is long-lasting and based on constant support and assistance with their needs, from the first sketch of the piece to its delivery.

The company's main objective is to maintain growth, but always with respect for the environment and the community in which it operates, proving that environmental sustainability and social responsibility are not incompatible with economic viability.
