How to choose the right workwear for the job

Everybody likes being comfortable at work. So if your staff need to wear industrial safety gear or personal protective equipment (PPE) as part of their role, it's important you provide workwear that keeps them well protected, feels comfy and looks good, all at the same time.

Is there more to Workwear than retail styling?

When making your choice, garments vary in price, quality and brand. But it's important to remember that value for money doesn't come from buying the cheapest, or even from relying on expensive brands, but by choosing workwear that's most fit for purpose.

Choose reputable workwear brands

You won't see them on the catwalks of Milan, but reputable workwear manufacturers are where the real value for money lies.
Specialist brands like Beeswift for safety footwear, Portwest for outdoor workwear and Premier for hospitality uniforms offer the most robust, top quality fabrics. And while they don't come cheap, they're guaranteed to last well.

Whether it's a relevant EN ISO international standard to prove to the health and safety officer the garment is suitable for the task, or workwear that simply fits your needs and lasts well, we'll help.

Don't be swayed by fashion brands

They may have the marketing budget to pay for fancy adverts, but fashion workwear retailers rarely offer the best garments for the job.

While they're attractive at first glance, fashion brands hardly ever carry certificates to prove important features like breathability and waterproofing have been tested to a recognised standard for use in the workplace.
