HexTex Halo™
For the head that never quite switches off
A single panel that slips inside your pillowcase. It sits closest to the place that matters most at night — the base of your skull and the back of your neck.
Made in America · Medical-grade textileBetter days begin
Better days begin
in your brainwaves.
Calm, steady brainwaves shape how your whole mind works — and how every hour that follows actually feels. HexTex™ is a soft, American-made organic cotton fabric with a specially designed hexagonal, nano-graphene weave that gently transforms your own waste heat energy into beneficial far infrared light. Sleep with it, take it to events, or wear it while you work. Nothing to plug in and completely washable.

What is it
Fabric that helps you feel like yourself again.
Proudly made in the USAHexTex is a single, soft layer of organic cotton with a graphene weave built right into it. It doesn't plug in, it never needs charging, and you'll never feel it doing anything. What you notice is how you feel after living with it for a while.
Use it however fits your life. It works while you sleep, while you relax in the sauna, or while it's wrapped over your shoulders in the middle of an ordinary afternoon. The point was never to change your bedroom. It was to give you deeper rest and a steadier mind, so the rest of your day has more room in it.
Made in America, start to finish
Grown, woven, and sewn in the United States.
Every HexTex panel travels through three American states and the hands of American workers before it reaches your home. Nothing is imported and relabeled — the whole thing is made here.
- 01
Grown in
Georgia
It begins in Georgia soil, where the organic cotton is grown and picked — unbleached, natural fiber with nothing sprayed onto it.
- 02
Woven in
North Carolina
The cotton travels to a North Carolina mill, where the graphene is woven into the fabric on the loom, becoming part of its structure.
- 03
Sewn in
Pennsylvania
Finished panels are cut, stitched, and sewn in Pennsylvania by American hands, then inspected before they ever reach you.
Wherever you need it
One fabric, all the ways you actually live.
In your bed
Slip it into your pillowcase or lay it under your fitted sheet and let it work through the whole night while you sleep.
In the sauna
Take it into an infrared or traditional sauna and drape it over your shoulders while you unwind and let the day melt off.
Worn through the day
Wrap it around your shoulders at your desk, on the couch, or in a quiet moment whenever you want to settle your mind.
Actual HexTex fabric — cotton face and graphene side
The fabric
Soft on both sides, engineered all the way through.
Both sides of HexTex are gentle enough to wear right against your skin. The organic cotton face is a touch plusher, so it's the side most people rest against the body, but there's no wrong way to use it and nothing scratchy or stiff to work around.
The material itself comes from a class of textile built for hospitals and cleanrooms, held to AAMI Level 3 standards. We took that foundation and wove an AI-designed graphene pattern directly into it, so the technology lives in the threads rather than in a coating that could flake, fade, or wash away.
The idea behind the name
Your body is always giving off warmth. HexTex sends it back.
Your skin quietly radiates far-infrared energy all day and all night, strongest at around 9.4 microns. With most fabrics that energy just drifts off into the room and is gone.
The graphene in HexTex is arranged in a hexagonal pattern that catches that infrared warmth and gently returns it to you. It's a slow, steady exchange that runs entirely on your own energy — no battery, no heat setting, no maintenance. That hexagonal weave is where the name comes from.
Hexagonal textile. HexTex.
Who it's for
For anyone trying to feel a little more human.
Restless sleepers
For anyone who lies awake, wakes up foggy, or never quite feels caught up on rest.
Students
For the ones studying late who want a calmer mind and sharper focus the next morning.
Aging minds
For older adults who care about staying clear, steady, and sharp as the years go on.
Anyone worn thin
For people carrying more than their share of stress who simply need a way to decompress.
Over a few weeks you simply start sleeping deeper, thinking clearer, and waking up to mornings that feel like they belong to you again.
The science
A quiet mind, measured in a lab.
In 2022, a team led by Lu and colleagues wove a thin layer of carbon into ordinary fabric, draped it loosely around the necks of healthy adults, and recorded their brainwaves. Within minutes, the two rhythms most tied to calm and sleep surged.

Why you'd want more alpha and theta.
These aren't abstract numbers. Alpha and theta are the two brainwave states your body naturally moves through as it winds down and repairs. Encouraging more of them is, in effect, helping your mind do what it already wants to at night.
Alpha: the doorway to rest
Alpha waves rise when the mind goes quiet — eyes closed, body still, the nervous system shifting out of fight-or-flight. More alpha is associated with lower stress, easier relaxation, and a smoother hand-off into sleep.
Theta: memory and deep sleep
Theta waves dominate the drowsy edge of sleep and the stages where the brain consolidates memory and clears the day. Stronger theta activity is linked to creativity, emotional processing, and the restorative depth of a good night.
Why it matters
Together, more alpha and theta point toward the state your body works hardest to reach at night: calm on the way down, and deep, consolidating rest once you are there — without a device, a drug, or a routine to maintain.
From the lab to the clinic · BMC Geriatrics, 2024
Tested on the people who need rest most.
Researchers at the Chinese Academy of Sciences took graphene far-infrared out of the lab and into a clinical population. Older adults living with cognitive impairment wore a graphene far-infrared cap for just thirty minutes a day, over four weeks.
Published in BMC Geriatrics in 2024, the team concluded that graphene far-infrared intervention is a promising approach for cognitive and mood disorders in older adults — reporting short-term effects on anxiety and sustained effects on cognition.

measured effects
No electricity. No stimulation. Just resonance.
The fabric emits far-infrared light in the 7–14 micrometer band — the same band of light your own body radiates as thermal energy. Because the wavelengths match, the energy resonates with living tissue, encouraging blood microcirculation rather than forcing heat into the skin.
That is the thread connecting both studies: the same passive, body-matched far-infrared, whether it's nudging brainwaves in healthy adults or supporting cognition and calm in a clinical group.

How it works
Not all carbon fabric is the same.
The difference is in the weave — and in where it happens. Print carbon onto fabric and it washes away. Build it into the structure, on a loom in North Carolina, and it stays for the life of the textile while keeping an American mill at work.
- 01
Where it starts
Engineered for clean rooms
HexTex begins with a fabric class built for medical isolation and clean room environments — then goes further, weaving carbon into the textile at a tighter density than the industry standard.
- 02
How it is made
Woven, never printed
The carbon is part of the fabric’s structure, interlaced into the weave itself. It cannot flake, fade, or wash out — because it was never sitting on top to begin with.
- 03
Where it is made
Manufactured in the USA
The cotton travels to a North Carolina mill, where the specially configured graphene is woven into the fabric on the loom, becoming part of its structure. Grown in Georgia and sewn in Pennsylvania — American-made end to end.
The collection
Three ways to bring it to bed.
Start small at the pillow, or cover the whole surface. Every panel is the same fabric — you're only choosing how much of the night it reaches.
HexTex Core™
Torso-width coverage where you rest
Lays beneath your fitted sheet, centered where your body spends the night. Full torso coverage without changing how the bed looks or feels.
HexTex Core+™
The whole bed, edge to edge
Full-body coverage for a queen bed. One layer beneath the sheet, working the entire night, every night — nothing to switch on and nothing to remember.
