We Didn’t Come Here to Make Another Heat Press.

There are already plenty of those. Alien Press was created because apparel decorators deserved a stronger alternative to disposable, underbuilt equipment.

We are serious about machinery, but we do not believe serious has to mean boring. Alien Press combines commercial equipment with a visual identity inspired by spacecraft, engineered systems and a mechanical alien that looks right at home on the shop floor.
