FR: Our Core CompetencyWhen you do only one thing, you can give it all your attention. So every employee, resource and process at Workrite is dedicated to manufacturing flame-resistant garments that measure up to key customer values: extended wear life, performance and protection.

That means providing a variety of fabric choices to meet your specific hazards, designing garments intended to make life on the job more comfortable, and o�ering a broad product line to fit the diverse needs of industries requiring flame-resistant apparel.

It’s been the Workrite way since 1973. It will stay the Workrite way.

Sewn-In QualityImagine looking at 10,000 brand new garments all at once.And just think how insignificant two garments would look in comparison. That’s our current defect rate: .19, an extremely low number envied throughout the FR apparel industry.

Operating under the prominent ISO 9001 banner, Workrite’s business practices interweave measurable production controls, raw goods requirements, employee training and a stringent quality policy to help achieve our goal of complete customer satisfaction.

Never using seconds, we hold our raw materials to exacting specifications to ensure finished-garment integrity. We exclusively use branded fabrics from proven suppliers who adhere to the highest standards, so you can trust where your Workrite apparel originated and from whom.

Workrite durability results from purposely over-constructing apparel. Various techniques – like triple feld-lock pant seams that prevent tearing, and bar-tacks to reinforce pocket corners and zipper bottoms – enable your garments to withstand the rigors of the toughest industrial jobs.

Plus, we regard our thorough multi-step inspections for each garment as a vital investment in long-lasting apparel – apparel in which you can have complete confidence, backed by our one-year workmanship guarantee.*

Unequaled SelectionOn top of our experience and quality, Workrite o�ers the broadest product mix with more styles, colors and sizes than anyone in the industry.

It’s no wonder that 75 percent of our customers choose Workrite for at least 90 percent of their FR needs – proof positive that our comprehensive selection serves as a sole source for clientele in a variety of industries.

Knowledgeable ServiceWith online ordering capabilities, a national sales force and distribution centers to efficiently service the country, Workrite makes it easy for customers to purchase FR apparel.

We also make it easy to get help with sizing along with garment evaluations that include free wear trials. Our experienced customer service and sales sta� can help you with the logistical aspects of an FR program, including recommended number of garments per person, shipping specifics, name tags and laundering instructions.

And Workrite can set up and manage an employee clothing allowance program for you in a way that makes sense for your company, keeping track of authorized purchases by garment, cost, location and employee.

Tailored FlexibilityIn addition to o�shore facilities, Workrite has an owned and operated manufacturing site in the United States.

This gives us the flexible capabilities of a smaller regional manufacturer as well as the volume capacity of the biggest suppliers in the industry.

So whether you field 50 or 5,000 employees, our manufacturing process provides garments quickly and efficiently to accommodate all FR needs including special orders, customization desires, and non-stock requests.

Enterprising LeadershipWith a full-time technical sta�, our participation in industry standards organizations ensures we stay keenly aware of pertinent safety requirements, because oftentimes we help develop them.

Having been a leader in flame-resistant apparel for over 35 years, we have forged long-term strategic relationships with key industry suppliers. They work closely with us, sharing the newest in FR fiber and fabric technologies. In many cases, we are involved at the ground-floor level of the development process, ensuring our customers remain at the forefront of FR garment innovation and performance.

Welcome to flame-resistant leadership ®

* Guarantee covers all workmanship defects resulting from normal wear within one year of purchase, for garments laundered per our instructions. Workrite will determine whether a returned garment is to be repaired or replaced. Apparel color shifting or fading is excluded.

3 “Life Cost” refers to the expected expenditures for FR clothing over the life of a program. For example, if a garment has a high up-front cost but a long wear life, the actual program cost is low.4 Actual garment life varies greatly and depends on conditions of use. Workrite makes no warranty regarding the wear life of flame-resistant fabrics. “Wear Life” estimates are based on following the manufacturer’s recommended handling procedures.
