4 Advantages of Using Cotton for
Your Company Uniforms
Since it's getting so hot outside, it's worth
it to find some
fabrics that will breathe. Wool and polyester,
although they have their own advantages, might not be able to match the
benefits of cotton. Let's have a look at why this is.
It's Soft
Cotton starts off as soft, and the more it is
washed, the softer is will get. Softness is one of the elements of comfort, and
when uniforms are softer, they are much more comfortable to where. Think about
how long your employees need to wear their uniforms - at least eight hours a
day. That softness can make more of a difference than you might think. Because
the cotton is so comfortable, it is often used for other company-issued items
that don't count as true uniforms but are special items for outings to baseball
games or other events, especially during the summer.
It Breathes
Also, cotton is a material that breathes. This
means that it helps keep the wearer cool. With summer temperatures getting
increasingly hotter, even the workers who are inside for the majority of the
day need to stay comfy and cool. That's why choosing cotton for your uniforms
is so important. Plus, the heat inside your body is vented out more quickly
which also keeps everyone cool and dry which helps for anyone who needs to
complete strenuous tasks outside. A
sweaty appearance can make customers uncomfortable or even drive away potential
business. Don't let that happen to you - if you don't have cotton in your
uniforms, then it's past time to do so.
Natural
Cotton is also a natural fiber. Unlike synthetic fibers, cotton typically is not
coated with chemicals. Synthetic materials can bother the skin of anyone that
wears them. One of the other benefits of
cotton is that it naturally won't bother the skin, which is great for people
who have sensitive skin. By avoiding skin allergies, you can also continue to
keep your employees comfortable when they need to wear company-issued uniforms.
Versatile
Lastly, cotton is also a immensely versatile
fabric. Some examples of fabric include denim, gingham, oxford, and twill. It
also accepts colors and dyes. This means that you can change the colors of the
clothing items associated with the uniforms.
