In today’s times, self expression is an important aspect which is being advocated all over the world. While uniforms stand exactly opposite to this right, certain industries require uniforms even today to make things easy and safe for the wearers, as well as the customers.
Apart from the brand awareness that custom made work wears can bring about to your customers, there are other benefits such as trust, identity, equality which uniforms can bestow upon the wearer. Not every industry or corporate company requires work wears, but here are a few sectors which must have uniforms in our opinion.
Education industry
Highly prevalent to impart equality among the students, schools and other educational institutes are a must in this list. Children from different diversity come to school and it is important that they understand that everyone is equal in the eyes of education and no one if different. Some schools and colleges even introduce uniforms to teachers and professors with custom branded logos embroidered in their work wears. With high reputation institutes, wearing these uniforms is matter of pride to the staff and gives the confidence.
Home delivery personnels'
We don’t simply open our doors to every stranger who rings our door bell. There’s an apprehension that is always attached to this act. Introducing uniforms communicates trust on the resident to open their doors to the total stranger who is on the other end. This can be any industry – courier services, food delivery or even online shopping company. While delivery partners for food business introduce full on uniforms, online shopping staffs choose bags with custom designs to represent their company. Our branding promotional products like bags, caps with custom logo imprinted on them can help your customers recognize your staff.
Healthcare industry
Another important industry where uniforms are a must is the healthcare industry. Hospitals staffs need uniforms not only to identify themselves to the patients as a hospital staff, but also to impose trust in the patients. Uniforms in healthcare industry don’t just end with the uniforms for doctors, nurses and visitor scrubs. Even spas, gyms, healthcare outlets like pharmacies, cosmetics outlets etc require uniforms to give them their identity.
Food industry
Ask any chef and they’d say that their best ally in their everyday chaos is their crisp, clean chef’s coat and their well fitted pants. Surrounded by heat all day long, their uniform needs to be made out of fabrics which are well absorbent and easy to clean. With their white uniforms, it is easy to identify any spills and stay clean. The same goes for front desk personnel and waiters in a restaurant, whom the customers can recognize easily with their custom made, branded uniforms. Fast food outlets are also included and even if it’s not the entire uniform like KFC staffs, one look at the apron of Starbucks and you can still identify them.
Hospitality sector
Hotels and flight crew staff must have uniforms to make them stand apart. Also, uniforms based on different designations are also important in these industries. In hotels, managers and janitors have different uniforms while still, represented by the same brand through custom made logos embroidered in their uniforms. In airlines, it is important to show the difference between the Pilots, cabin crew, ground staff and security to make sure the passengers know who to contact for their query.
Customer/people facing sectors.
Apart from the above mentioned, places like supermarkets, shopping mall security personnels’, volunteers at an event all require uniforms to display their identity.
Formula pit staff / sports team
Time to show some team spirit by wearing your team’s colour on your sleeves. When racing at a high speed and making a pit stop, it boost so much confidence in the rider when he recognizes his team members. A uniform in this case promotes trust that is much needed in team sports.
Heavy duty / hazardous environment sectors
Industries with heavy duty machines require their staff to be wearing well fitted uniforms which doesn’t dangle around and put their lives in danger. Overalls are the most sought after uniforms in this case. Also, safety suits are important in chemical plants and other drug manufacturing industries where the fabrics are chosen properly to make sure, it provides the wearers safety as well as comfort.
