ARE YOU LOSING MONEY ON UNIFORMS? Every year businesses loose $$$ by not retrieving uniforms from staff who leave. If your company has a high staff turnover, this becomes a cost.

3 ARE YOU LOSING MONEY ON UNIFORMS? Every year businesses loose $$$ by not retrieving uniforms from staff who leave. If your company has a high staff turnover, this becomes a cost. That could be reduced with tighter uniform issuing, management and retrieval process upon termination. Often it can be seen as a hassle, staff leave things at home and they have lost items. But, it ultimately could be costing your company $$$. Simple steps to recover uniforms from departing staff could save quite a bit of money. While we probably think most workers are conscientious, implementing a simple uniform policy and issuing process perhaps tied to their final pay is a small investment that will pay off in the long run. Simple steps to recover uniforms from departing staff could save quite a bit of money. Typically larger companies with a number of sites geographically can save $$$ by adopting Arrow Uniforms UNIFORM RECYCLE Programme. Effectively this combines the uniform cupboards at each site into one central location and garments still suitable for use can be dry-cleaned and reissued as new elsewhere for a fraction of the cost. You may not be a multinational, but you too can talk to us about implementing a simple staff uniform policy to reduce your ongoing uniform expenditure, with appropriate control documentation that is designed to help manage uniform costs, ensuring that presentation is kept up and that your garments don t end up on Trade Me. We can help you with this when you buy your uniforms from us. Arrow Uniforms has an innovative programme called UNIFORM RECYCLE which can help larger companies retrieve value.

4 BLOCKBUSTER UNIFORM INVENTIONS Over the years, there have been many advances in uniform design and manufacture. The biggest ever? Here s our pick, Velcro and Teflon. VELCRO Velcro, a portmanteau word combining velour and crochet, is a system of tiny hooks and hairy loop fasteners. It was invented in 1948 by a Swiss electrical engineer inspired by the prickly burrs that lodged in his clothes and his dog s fur after a walk in the woods. The idea wasn t taken seriously until an American columnist described it as a zipperless zip. TEFLON Teflon, a fluorinated plastic, is so slippery even insects can t walk across it. It was discovered by accident in 1938 by an American research chemist working for DuPont (one of the world s largest chemical companies, also responsible for inventing Lycra, Kevlar, nylon and neoprene). Velcro was then adopted by the aerospace industry to help astronauts get in and out of their bulky space suits. Skiers were the next to use Velcro fastenings, followed by scuba divers, and the manufacturers of children s clothing. Now Velcro is also widely used in clothing for the elderly and physically disabled who struggle to dress themselves. Velcro has been used in lots of weird and wonderful ways: holding together a human heart during the first artificial heart operation, attaching torches to the walls of nuclear power plants and army tanks, on orthopaedic braces, disposable nappies, backpacks, surfboard leashes, and far more. NASA used 250+ metres in every space shuttle, not just for the astronauts suits (including a nose scratcher inside their helmets), but also to anchor equipment so it didn t float around. And guess what? Arrow Uniforms uses velcro too. In many garments we make, if it s the best option, we ll use velcro. NASA used 250+ metres in every space shuttle Teflon was used to coat the valves and seals in the atomic bombs used in Japan in WWII. Teflon is widely used in industry because it reduces wear and energy consumption in machinery. It s used as an insulator for cables, circuit boards and fuel lines, anywhere sliding parts are used and as a grafting material in surgery. Teflon is widely used in industry because it reduces wear and energy consumption in machinery. It s also known as Tefal, used in non-stick cookware and Gor-Tex, used in clothing. At Arrow Clothing, Teflon is used as a fabric protector, fending off stains and spills without affecting the fabric s weight, look, feel, colour or breathing properties. This makes it easier for your Arrow uniforms to keep looking fresh and clean. It also helps seal in the colour, preserving their new look for longer.
