Top Uniform Brands Offering Customization for Businesses
When it comes to uniform brands, one size doesn’t fit all—especially when you’re in an industry that requires clothing that is tough and comfortable but still on-brand.
At Unitec, we partner with some of the most trusted uniform brands on the market, offering customization options that extend far beyond just slapping on a logo. Below, we’ll explore the best uniform brands by industry and how our in-house services help you make them your own.
Why Does Uniform Customization Matter?
Most business owners invest significant time and resources into their logos, websites, and other conventional marketing materials but cut corners when it comes to their uniform programs. This is a missed opportunity.
A sharp, on-brand uniform builds trust, improves employee morale, keeps team members safe in demanding environments, and separates you from competitors. Investing in a quality uniform brand benefits everyone—and the benefits only grow when you take it a step further and invest in customization.

The Best Uniform Brands Deserve the Right Customization
Finding the best uniform brand is only the first step. To truly nail your image, we offer several customization options for your uniform brands:
- Fabric & logo placement: Where do you want your logo? Left chest, right sleeve, full back? You pick the spot; we’ll make sure it pops on the fabric that fits the job and the brand.
- Embroidery: Need that clean, classic look? We’ll stitch your logo in a way that holds its luster—long after the job (and the spin cycle) are done.
- Emblems: Want to make it official? Whether it’s a name tag, patch, or logo, we’ve got your uniform brand covered—literally.
- Tailoring: If it doesn’t fit, it doesn’t work. Hand over your hemming and clothing repairs to us.
- Screen printing: Big, bold, cost-effective. Our screen printing makes your uniform brand stand out across teams, departments, and job sites.
- Heat sealing: To keep it sharp, you’ve got to turn up the heat. Our heat-sealing tech locks in your logo. No more fading or cracking.
