VISIBILITY
Do you have an important promotion or event coming up? Screen
print a design with information about it on the back of your team’
shirts. Consider changing up your employee’s uniforms based on
seasons, such as darker shades for winter and a brighter color and
logo for summer. Changing up uniforms can add interest to your
business and catch customer’s eyes. Think about your employee’
shirt uniforms as a support of choice for your business visibility.

DIMENSIONAL STABILITY
Here comes the nice part of the process, however, you’ll want to
make sure to keep the shirt uniform color as close to the company
branding as possible. From classic shades to brighter colours,
B&C Shirts offer the right colour range to fit any business
whether it is for a corporate sales team, a hospitality staff, a mass
retail staff, a beauty business crew…. When picking your logo
or embroidery, make sure to ensure high contrast between the
logo and garment. Whatever you decided to choose, make sure
the embroidery or logo is easily readable, especially from a distance.
Depending on how much physical activity your employees will be
doing or the temperature they are working in, consider the kind
of fabric that is the most suitable for their uniforms.
Are they outside? If they are and the weather gets warm, cotton
may be a more suitable fabric. Polyester/cotton blend may be
more durable and may be better for indoor, air-conditioned
environments. Elastane offer also added comfort to a more fitted
shirt cut. Also, consider your employees and their busy schedules;
make sure their shirts are easy to wash. All B&C Shirts are
easy care treated.
BRANDING
WHAT DECORATION TECHNIQUE?
Embroidery may look best for a small logo on the front of
the shirt. If you want a larger or all-over design, screen printing
will be the best option. One option is to embroider the employee’s
name on the front of the shirt and do a large, screen printed logo
on the back. An embroidered logo on the front looks nice as well.
In any case, B&C Shirts are designed to be decorated and will give
you enhanced printability thanks to their high quality fabrics.

In order to get a proper uniform fit, you sometimes need to increase
the “normal” size by one. B&C Shirts are true to size, you can order

professional in any business situation. We have designed our shirts
