Workwear manufacturer Ballyclare has introduced new hi vis range of polycotton garments after consultation with wearers from across the UK, expanding the range of female fit garments which it supplies to several industrial sectors including rail, utilities, construction and engineering. The new range is supported by a new section on the Ballyclare website.
“Our aim was to find out exactly what female wearers wanted from our workwear and expand the range we offer them accordingly,” explains sales and marketing director, Roger Foster. “We wanted to provide a range of well-fitting, comfortable and protective garments. We worked with female wearers in a number of live trials and used their feedback to design garments that actually offer real benefits to the end user. The result is that we’ve introduced new hi vis female fit workwear that’s ideal for women in many different industries.”Workwear manufacturer Ballyclare has introduced new hi vis range of polycotton garments after consultation with wearers from across the UK, expanding the range of female fit garments which it supplies to several industrial sectors including rail, utilities, construction and engineering.

The Ballyclare female fit range already included waterproof jackets and trousers using GORE-TEX fabrics and the new hi vis polycotton workwear offers the perfect complement to these. These garments have already been specified and approved for use by Network Rail but are equally suited to many different industrial sectors.
The new polycotton garments – which include polo shirts, softshell jackets and cargo trousers - are designed to be both comfortable and durable, and are industrially launderable. They are available in sizes from 8 – 20, and with four leg length options. Individual made-to-measure garments, made in the UK, are also available.
“The fit of a garment is a crucial aspect of any workwear,” adds Roger. “Our aim with the sizes of the new polycotton garments was to eliminate the need for female wearers to fold or cut their workwear in order to make it fit properly, which is both bad practice and potentially dangerous. We gathered a series of base measurements from female wearers and then carried out live trials with female workers using fully certified kit. Their feedback helped us arrive at the most appropriate range of sizes and meant we were confident our designs offered the best solution to women in industry.” (SV)
