Police & Prisons

We design and develop specialist workwear, PPE and technical solutions for all aspects of Police and Prison officers’ roles.

Our vast experience working with this sector over many decades has given us invaluable, unique insight into all aspects of the operational and administrative requirements.

This sector demonstrates the transition in workwear, from standard uniforms to truly specialist solutions.

We can deliver everything from full ceremonial dress uniforms, officer uniforms, and protective clothing alongside the more technical that both these services require.

Our UK R&D and manufacturing facility allows us to work closely in collaboration with UK Police and Prison services to develop the solutions they wish to use now and in future.
