We sent a team of our industrial designers and a fabric technician to meet the APO Business Centre crew at Nambour, QLD to get an insight into how the team’s uniforms performed.

Understanding client's uniform needs through 'Day in the Life' program

Understanding your uniform needs means we can innovate and develop a uniform that your team members will not only be proud of, but enjoy wearing.

Our best way to do that is to spend time with your team, do a days work in their shoes to get to know their different functions and needs.  It gives us the chance to listen, observe, touch and experience. That’s one of the things that is unique about Workwear Group Uniforms and how we go about designing your uniform.

Gaining Uniform Insights

•	What do you do in your day?

•	Tell us the good, the bad and the ugly?

•	Show me how you do that?

When you choose a bespoke uniform, we send a team of designers and fabric technicians to meet onsite with your team to gain an insight into how your current uniform performs, what you need and any challenges.  

We will identify the key factors for them, which then arms us with knowledge we need about you and the uniform program we can provide uniquely for you. Just as we did for Australia Post.
