Covering all work-related garments, fabrics and systems the Workwear and Corporate Clothing show is an essential event for everyone in the corporate clothing world, from textile manufacturers to end-users.

Incorporatewear co-founder Jeff Banks was on hand to welcome existing and prospective clients to the stand where the uniforms on show included Virgin Atlantic Airways and Beaverbrooks The Jewellers.

A showcase of stunning Beaverbrooks jewellery added extra sparkle, in addition, the display featured a mouth-watering selection of cupcakes from Incorporatewear’s “cutting the cake a different way” campaign.

Paula Cannon, Incorporatewear’s Design and Technical manager created a mesmerizing catwalk show which featured garments from Coventry Building Society, Virgin Club House and Stagecoach. The pièce de résistance, a stunning wedding dress made totally from recycled pilots shirts.

Garment Reuse and Recycling

Tuesday, March 8th, 2011

Incorporatewear, the UK’s premier corporate clothing supplier, set out to provide an outstanding level of service and recently one of their longest-serving clients took the opportunity to record their experience.

Nationwide Building Society, which has around 750 branches in the UK, is the largest building society in the world and has been a client of Incorporatewear for over a decade.

During this time corporatewear colour and design has evolved considerably and Incorporatewear has been at the forefront of meeting Nationwide’s branding and wearer needs.

But nowadays the environmental life-cycle clothing needs to be considered in addition to elements of style, fit and performance.

Incorporatewear is not only an expert in meeting design needs, but also instrumental in ensuring that end-of-life garments are destroyed or recycled appropriately and securely.

Nationwide were so impressed with Incorporatewear that they recently filmed part of the company’s design operations as a part of their corporate PR activities and have kindly shared this with us.

Showing Up

Monday, February 28th, 2011

This year’s Workwear and Corporate Clothing Show will be again held at the Ricoh Arena, Coventry on 5-6 April 2011.

As you would expect Incorporatewear, as the UK’s premier corporate clothing, uniform and workwear supplier will be exhibiting and can be found at Stand WD34.

“The last year has seen some significant structural changes in the corporatewear sector,” observes Chris Wood, Incorporatewear’s acting Managing Director, “and we’ve seen unprecedented cost increases in raw materials, labour rates and logistics costs across the board, particularly from the Far East. Nevertheless Incorporatewear has risen ably to the challenge, adapted its business model and attracted a number of prestigious new clients. As such we’re very optimistic for 2011.”

Incorporatewear recognises that service and quality remain of paramount importance to its client base and the Workwear and Corporate Clothing Show provides an ideal showcase.

In particular, Incorporatewear will be showing off its latest collections on the catwalk and making the most of what always proves to be a tremendous networking event.

We hope to see you there.
