We were approached by Walker Group to quote on several Hi-Vis items for their work force in the group as well as some smart office/management uniform.
They had been left feeling undervalued and disappointed with their previous supplier, so were looking for a company that had great communication and were responsive to their requirements.
While undergoing the process of samples and approvals, it was decided that the good old hi-vis vest could be better replaced with a hi-vis t-shirt, with breathable, wicking and SPF properties for warmer days and a hi-vis hoodie for cooler days.
While a hi-vis vest can be a cost-effective way for the team to conform to EN471 it is also deemed a little ‘throw away’ and we find that members of staff could often leave them behind or turn up without adequate PPE meaning that they would not be fit for the job. By investing in hi-vis as part of the core workwear, the wearers feel more comfortable and valued and are guaranteed to be wearing the right level of hi-visibility protection for the job.
As well as finding the right workwear and uniform for their team Walker Group also found the right fit in terms of a supplier that would meet their needs!
