Product Overview
The Bateleur EarthPro® GRS Fleece represents a refined choice for businesses seeking to align their professional image with environmental responsibility. As part of the EarthPro® range, this black fleece is constructed using Global Recycled Standard (GRS) certified polyester, offering a high-quality alternative to virgin fabrics without sacrificing performance. It serves as a versatile mid-layer, providing essential insulation during the colder months while maintaining a sharp, cohesive look for your team.
Key Features
- Global Recycled Standard (GRS) Fabric: The use of certified recycled polyester ensures your workwear has a reduced environmental footprint while remaining durable for daily use.
- Full-Length Zip Closure: The robust front zip allows for easy temperature regulation and quick changes in varying work environments.
- Secure Pocketing: Designed to keep essential items safe, the integrated pockets provide practical storage for mobile devices or small tools throughout the workday.
- Elasticated Cuffs and Hem: These help to trap heat and provide a secure fit, preventing drafts from compromising comfort during outdoor tasks.
Design & Performance
This fleece is engineered for the rigours of a professional environment. The medium-weight fabric offers an excellent warmth-to-weight ratio, ensuring that staff remain comfortable without the bulk of traditional heavy jackets. The black colourway is chosen for its practical ability to mask everyday dust and grime, maintaining a clean appearance between washes. The fabric is treated to resist pilling, ensuring the garment remains smooth and professional-looking even after repeated wear and industrial laundering.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The dense pile of the Bateleur EarthPro® fleece makes it an ideal canvas for customisation. We recommend embroidery for a truly professional and long-lasting finish; our high-quality threads sit perfectly on the fleece surface, making company logos and staff names stand out with clarity. For larger, more vibrant designs, modern printing techniques can also be applied. All customisation is performed in-house at our Telford facility by a team with expertise dating back to 1976, ensuring your branding is handled with the precision it deserves.
Use Cases
This garment is perfectly suited for a wide range of sectors, including logistics, facilities management, and the trades. It is equally effective as an outer layer during mild autumn days or as a dedicated insulating layer beneath a waterproof shell during the peak of winter. For client-facing roles, the EarthPro® GRS Fleece provides a smart, uniform look that signals both professionalism and corporate social responsibility.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, consider how the fleece will be worn. For those using it as a primary mid-layer over a thick shirt, you may find the standard fit appropriate. However, if you prefer a more streamlined profile for wearing under a fitted jacket, ensuring a snug fit will maximise the thermal efficiency of the recycled fibres. The black colour is particularly effective for teams who work in environments where contact with machinery or materials is frequent.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the structural integrity of recycled polyester is straightforward but requires attention to detail to ensure the garment lasts for years rather than months. We recommend a regular wash at moderate temperatures to remove oils and dirt that can degrade the fibres over time.
Avoid the use of bleach or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can break down the recycled polyester strands and lead to premature thinning of the fabric. Similarly, high-heat tumble drying should be avoided to prevent the fleece from losing its soft texture or shrinking.
Ironing is generally unnecessary for this material and should be avoided where possible. Excessive heat from an iron can damage the synthetic fibres, potentially causing permanent marks or altering the fleece's insulating properties. For the best results, hang the garment to air dry naturally, which helps maintain its shape and ensures your embroidered logo remains crisp.
