Designing your employees’ new workwear ? When it comes to choosing work wear, your choices will all depend on your sector, the day-to-day activities your teams undertake and the conditions in which they work. Do they work outdoors in an uncovered space? Do they regularly use heavy machinery? Would they need ample clothing because they make a lot of movements? If you said yes to all or most of these questions, why not opt for something made of canvas fabric? Here are a few reasons why you should consider it.
- Weather resistant: Canvas is often used to make outdoor clothing to adapt to weather conditions. And because canvas is a tightly woven fabric, very similar to duck fabric, it is a natural durable water-repellent as well. Common methods of rendering it even more water-resistant, for clothing that are regularly exposed to water, include waxing the surface of the canvas for a more durable water repellency effect. Canvas is also commonly blended with other synthetic fibers for better water impermeability. Canvas is also a relatively good breathable fabric. It is not too warm to wear during spring time, but it also prevents the heat produced by the body from escaping too much if you’re working outside during chilly weather.
- Durable: Canvas is made by tightly weaving cotton fibers together. The result of this weaving is a strong, resistant fabric, which in turn makes it a quality fabric of choice for work wear. Due to its resistant characteristic, any piece made of canvas will last a long time as it does not wear out so easily. You can never be disappointed with choosing garments made of canvas. Canvas jackets are one of a select few garments that can only age well as the time passes and gradually develop a new, charming look to their fabric.
- Comfortable: As you've seen, canvas fabric has many advantages to it. However, not only is it durable, resistant, and weather resistant, it is also comfortable to wear for long periods of time thanks to being so lightweight.
