Facility management teams keep offices, malls, hospitals and campuses running. Their uniforms have to handle physical work, frequent washing and long shifts, while still looking neat to clients and visitors.
Common garments
- Tunics, polos or shirts for housekeeping staff
- Durable trousers with practical pockets
- Aprons for cleaning and pantry teams
- Jackets or coveralls for technical and maintenance staff
See our facility management uniforms.
What the fabric must handle
- Frequent washing: poly-cotton blends hold shape and colour well.
- Movement: bending, lifting and reaching all day.
- Heat: breathable fabrics for staff in non-air-conditioned areas.
- Stains and chemicals: darker colours and sturdy fabrics hide wear better.
Colour coding by role
Many FM companies use different colours for housekeeping, technical, pantry and supervisory staff. This helps clients identify the right person quickly and makes supervision easier.
Managing multi-site contracts
- Standardise core designs across sites
- Add client branding with patches or embroidery where required
- Pack uniforms by site and employee for faster distribution
- Keep buffer stock for new staff and replacements
