  2. 02

    Function

    Knee pad pockets, tool pockets, hammer loops and phone pockets where they are needed.

  3. 03

    Visibility

    Fluorescent fabric and reflective tape laid out to the standard your site requires.

    Professional branding

    Company logos that survive the job and present your crew well to clients.

Hi-vis workwear

Choosing a workwear manufacturer

Workwear is judged on site, not on a hanger. Ask how seams are stitched, where bar tacks go and which fabric weight is used for knees and pockets. Then have someone who does the job wear the sample for a week.

For hi-vis, tell your manufacturer which standard your site or sector requires before anything is designed. The fabric colour, tape width and layout all follow from it.

Branding matters more than many trade companies expect. Clean, consistent workwear tells clients your crew is organised, and it turns every van and site into advertising.

Questions to ask any manufacturer

  • How are seams and pockets reinforced?
  • Can my crew field-test a sample?
  • Which hi-vis standard can you build to?
  • Do you make women's fits?
  • Can you pack orders by site or crew?

Workwear and trades: questions

Do you make hi-vis to a safety standard?

Tell us the standard your site or sector requires. We build the spec around it and choose fabric and reflective tape to suit.

What is the most durable workwear fabric?

Drill and canvas for trousers and jackets. Poly-cotton is easier to care for in shirts washed often.

Can you add our company logo?

Yes. Embroidered logos and patches are the most durable on workwear.

Do you make women's workwear?

Yes. Women's fits are graded separately.

Can you make a full crew kit?

Yes. Coveralls, shirts, trousers, jackets, fleeces, tees and hi-vis can all be made under one spec.

Can we reorder for new starters?

Yes. Your spec and gold sample are kept on file.
