At Uniformal we work with a variety of high-quality unique materials. When selecting a choice for your company apron, it’s important to take into consideration the purpose of your apron. Some useful questions to ask yourself are:
What tasks will be carried out whilst wearing the apron?
Who will be wearing the apron?
How long will the apron be worn for?
All of these are factors to consider which can help to inform your decision and to get the best fit for you and your business.
Materials we work with:
Waxed canvas
Waxed canvas is a unique material with not commonly used within the fashion industry. The fabric is lightweight and pliable which makes it comfortable to wear (which is great for busy shifts). As the material ages a marbling effect is developed further increasing the uniqueness of the material. This material is vegan friendly, waterproof, and very well lasting which is always good for your business.
Bovine Leather
We source our Bovine leather from Italy, the best quality bovine leather, which is durable and completely stain-resistant with minimal maintenance with a wipe-clean surface. The leather is sourced sustainably from the meat industry. The thick durable design is completely stain-resistant and water repellent, making it the perfect choice for the food and drinks industry.
Canvas
A breathable fabric which works to transmit moisture away from the fabric, while the fabric is not waterproof it still makes a comfortable fabric as it is absorbs moisture directing it away from the skin. The overall durability of the fabric makes it a suitable contender for longevity, as it washes well an on a regular cycle. In addition, depending on the manufacturing process, cotton is often hypoallergenic, making it suitable for any allergy sufferer.
Vintage denim
Our Vintage denim is a heavy-duty, long-lasting fabric that can withstand tough conditions. The material is naturally stylish and functional, making it easy to design. Which is perfect for more casual spaces, such as coffee shops.
Irish linen
Linen is a yarn or fabric made from flex and is well-known for its antibacterial properties. Due to its ability to wicks moisture and absorbs much quicker than cotton, linen is one of the strongest natural fibers known to man. As its completely lint free you don’t have to worry about your clothes being covered in fluff.
