Ordering and Production Custom Uniform FAQs
Do you provide samples before production?
Yes. You approve a physical sample and your artwork before we produce the full order, so there are no surprises when your uniforms arrive.
Can you match our brand colors?
We match garment, thread and ink colors to your brand as closely as each product allows and confirm them on your approval sample.
Can you add employee names or numbers?
Yes. Names, titles and numbers can be embroidered or printed on individual garments, and personalization is included in your quote.
Do you keep our logo and specs on file?
Yes. We keep your logo files, garment styles, colors and placements on file so reorders and new-hire kits match your original order.
What file format should our logo be in?
Vector files such as AI, EPS or PDF work best. If you only have a different file type, send it anyway and we will review it before production.

Use our quote form or call (855) 608-6468. Share your team size, garments, logo and deadline, and we will reply within one business day.
Sizing and Fit FAQs

Do you offer different fits?
Many garment styles are available in multiple fits and an extended size range. We will recommend options that work for your whole team.
What if a garment does not fit after delivery?
Contact us right away. We will review the issue and help you find the best solution for exchanges or replacements.
Care and Reorder FAQs
How should we wash our uniforms?
Follow the care label on each garment. Washing in cold water and turning decorated garments inside out helps logos last longer.
How do reorders work?
Because your specs are on file, reorders are quick. Tell us the garments and sizes you need and we confirm pricing and timing.
Pricing and Payment FAQs
Do you offer volume pricing?
Yes. The price per piece drops as your order quantity grows, and your quote shows how pricing changes at different quantities.
Are there extra costs for multiple logo locations?
Each additional logo location adds to the cost per garment. Your itemized quote lists every decoration so you can decide what to include.
Can we get a quote for a future order?
Yes. Many businesses request pricing while planning budgets, openings or new hiring waves. We are happy to prepare a quote in advance.
Do quotes include personalization?
Yes. If you need names, titles or numbers, we include personalization in the quote so you know the total before you commit.
Timeline FAQs
Can you meet a hard deadline?
Often, yes. Share your date when you first contact us and we will build the schedule backward from it. Rush production is available in some cases.
What slows an order down?
Missing sizes, artwork changes after approval and out-of-stock garments are the most common causes of delay. Sending complete details up front keeps your order on track.
Do you deliver to multiple locations?
Yes. We can split deliveries by location so each site receives its own garments.
Decoration and Garment FAQs
Which lasts longer, stitched or printed logos?
Stitched logos generally last the longest, especially through industrial laundering. Quality prints also hold up well when garments are washed inside out in cold water.
Can you decorate hats and outerwear?
Many hats, jackets and vests can be decorated. Share the items you have in mind and we will confirm the best decoration method for each one.
Do you offer eco-friendly garment options?
Yes. Ask about garments made with recycled or sustainable materials, and we will include options in your quote where they are available.
Can we see garment colors before ordering?
Yes. We can share color swatches or samples so you can confirm shades before production.

Call (855) 608-6468 or send us your question. We reply within one business day.
Working With Uniforex Global
Do I need to know exactly what I want before contacting you?
No. Many clients start with a general idea, such as “we need our team to look more professional.” We ask a few questions about your roles, work environment and budget, then recommend specific garments and decoration options.
Will I have one contact for my account?
Yes. One team manages your program from the first quote through every reorder, so you never have to explain your needs twice.
Can you help with a rebrand?
Yes. If your logo or colors are changing, we can plan a phased or complete switch so every employee moves to the new look on schedule.
Can you supply uniforms for seasonal or temporary staff?
Yes. We can set up a simple kit for seasonal workers and keep extra sizes ready for busy periods.
Industry Uniform FAQs
What should restaurant uniforms include?
Most restaurants outfit kitchen staff in durable, easy-care chef coats or shirts and aprons, and front-of-house staff in branded polos or button-downs. Names on shirts help guests connect with servers, and stain-resistant fabrics keep everyone looking clean through long shifts.
What do healthcare teams usually wear?
Clinics and care teams often combine scrubs for clinical roles with branded polos or jackets for front-desk and administrative staff. Fabrics that tolerate frequent, hot washing and logos that will not fade are essential.
What do oil and gas crews need?
Field crews typically need flame-resistant shirts and pants, hi-vis outer layers for work near traffic or equipment, and durable outerwear. Requirements vary by site, so we match garments to the protection each role needs.
What works best on a manufacturing floor?
Manufacturing teams benefit from durable work shirts and pants with reinforced seams, comfortable fits for movement and clear branding so visitors and auditors can identify staff and departments.
What should corporate teams wear?
Office and sales teams usually start with embroidered polos and button-down shirts, then add quarter-zips, vests and soft-shell jackets for layering, travel and client visits.
Do you outfit schools, nonprofits and events?
Yes. We produce printed shirts for events, volunteers, fundraisers and teams, as well as branded items for giveaways.
Uniform Buying Guide in Brief
If you only remember a few things from these uniform FAQs, make them these:
- Start with the work. Choose garments for the environment, safety requirements and climate your team works in.
- Match decoration to the garment. Stitch polos and jackets; print t-shirts and large designs.
- Collect real sizes. Guessing causes most returns and delays.
- Approve a sample. Seeing your logo on the real garment prevents surprises.
- Plan for reorders. Keep specs on file so new hires match the rest of the team.
- Use one vendor. One partner keeps colors, logos and quality consistent.

Uniform Program Management FAQs
How many uniforms should each employee get?
A common starting point is three to five shirts per employee for daily wear, so everyone has clean garments between wash days, plus one outer layer. Roles with heavy soiling or strict hygiene standards may need more.
How often should uniforms be replaced?
Most daily-wear garments are replaced every one to two years, depending on fabric, laundering and how hard the work is. Replace anything that is torn, badly stained, faded or no longer meets safety requirements sooner.
Should employees pay for their own uniforms?
Policies vary by business and by state and federal rules. Many companies provide an initial set at no cost and set clear rules for replacements. Check with your HR or legal advisor about the policy that fits your company.
How do we handle uniforms when employees leave?
Many businesses collect garments at exit, especially branded outerwear and safety gear. A simple checklist during offboarding keeps your brand from being worn by people who no longer represent you.
Can you help us budget for a full year?
Yes. Tell us your headcount, expected hiring and replacement cycle, and we will estimate an annual program cost so you can plan ahead.
How do we keep multiple locations consistent?
Use one approved style guide: the same garments, colors, logo files and placements for every site. We keep that guide on file and produce every location’s orders from it.
Safety and Compliance FAQs
Are you responsible for our safety compliance?
Your company decides what protection each role needs. We help you find garments that meet the standards you specify and provide product information for your records.
Can safety garments be personalized?
Yes, with care. We choose decoration methods that do not compromise flame resistance or reflective performance.
Do you supply cold-weather safety gear?
Yes. Ask about insulated hi-vis jackets and layering pieces for cooler months and early-morning shifts.
