When it comes to projecting a positive image for your business, company uniforms represent far more than just how they look, especially, technical workwear. It is a type of uniform that protects the wearer from some of the hazards involved in his/her work. Thus, there are many things to think through before putting your money into such an investment. Everything from health and safety to fabric selection and supply management must be considered. Here are some of the things you need to consider when choosing technical workwear for your company.
Fabric
It's critical to analyze your technical workwear’s fabric to ensure that they not only appear professional but are also appropriate for the job. Consider the chef's uniform worn in hotels and restaurants. There may be health and safety protocols that you must consider while selecting technical workwear, depending on the nature of your business. You may need to consider fabrics that protect your employees from harm when working in particular settings, such as cold temperatures, low visibility, hot surfaces, areas with flammable substances and more.
Colours
Most of the time, custom-made workwear uses the company’s brand colour for brand awareness purposes. While it can be very helpful to make your brand easily identifiable, it may not work with technical uniforms. These garments must prioritize safety and appropriateness than branding. Thus, some may not follow the company’s colour but uses specialized materials instead, a reflector film, for example.
Logo Placing
It is your prerogative to decide whether your company’s technical workwear would bear the logo or not. Most companies do like to place a logo in this type of uniform. The frequent placing of the logo is on either left or right chest, on the sleeves near the shoulder, on the nape area, on the back or on the side of the pants.
Sizes
Ensuring the right size for any type of uniform is necessary to allow comfortable mobility. When opting for the right sizes of your custom-made uniforms, always run a survey and inventory with your employees. Make a list of your employee’s clothes sizes and give it to your workwear supplier. This method will also lessen the pieces that are being wasted and stocked.
