Fabric type
Checks & Yarn-Dyed for Uniforms
Woven-in checks and stripes with a structural pattern that never washes out.
Checks and stripes are woven from pre-dyed yarns, so the pattern is built into the cloth rather than printed on top. That makes it structural: the colour runs right through, edges stay sharp and the design never fades, bleeds or washes out over a uniform's working life.
We weave checks and stripes across plain and twill constructions, from fine kitchen checks to hard-wearing school-uniform patterns, tuned to the durability and laundering each end use demands.
