Product Overview
The Henbury HB860 Recycled Polyester Microfleece Jacket represents a sophisticated approach to sustainable professional attire. Engineered for the modern workforce, this garment is constructed from high-quality microfleece derived entirely from post-consumer plastic bottles. This choice of material allows your business to maintain a professional appearance while actively contributing to the reduction of environmental waste. The jacket is designed as a versatile layering piece, providing warmth without the bulk often associated with traditional outdoor wear.
Key Features
- 100% Recycled Polyester: The use of post-consumer plastic bottles ensures a lower environmental impact without compromising on the fabric's soft handle and durability.
- Anti-Pill Finish: This technical treatment prevents the formation of small bobbles on the fabric surface, ensuring the jacket retains its professional, clean-cut appearance even after frequent laundering.
- Comprehensive Pocket Configuration: Features two single-welt zipped side pockets and a dedicated zipped chest pocket, providing secure storage for mobile devices and essential tools.
- Ergonomic Design Details: Set-in sleeves and reinforced shoulder panels provide a structured fit and improved range of motion for physical tasks.
- Integrated Zip Guard and Facing: The full-length front zip includes a guard to prevent skin irritation at the neck and a facing to block out draughts.
- Stretch Binding: The collar and cuffs are finished with stretch binding, which helps retain the jacket's shape and provides a secure, comfortable fit against the body.
Design & Performance
This medium-weight microfleece is built for longevity. The construction features a back neck tape for structural reinforcement and a convenient outer hanging loop for storage. The inclusion of non-slip zip pulls is a subtle yet practical addition for those working in colder conditions where gloves may be required. The fabric provides excellent thermal insulation while remaining breathable, making it suitable for both indoor warehouse environments and outdoor site visits. The tear-out label also allows for a completely smooth finish against the neck, removing the common nuisance of scratchy tags.
Customisation: Embroidery Only
Due to the specific pile and texture of microfleece, this garment is offered exclusively for embroidery. While the soft, raised surface of the fabric makes it unsuitable for standard print methods—which cannot bond effectively to the fibres—it serves as an ideal canvas for high-density stitching. Our Telford-based embroidery team, established in 1976, utilises precision machinery to ensure your logo sits proudly on the fabric. Embroidery provides a durable, premium finish that will not peel or fade, maintaining your brand's integrity throughout the life of the jacket.
Use Cases
The HB860 is an excellent choice for a wide variety of sectors. It is particularly well-suited for site managers, logistics personnel, and maintenance teams who require a professional appearance coupled with practical warmth. Its sustainable credentials also make it a preferred option for corporate environments looking to align their uniform choices with their Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) goals.

Practical Advice
This jacket is available in a broad size range from XS to 4XL. For the best fit, we recommend measuring across the chest and referring to the provided sizing guide. As a medium-weight layer, it functions best when worn over a moisture-wicking polo shirt or under a heavy-duty waterproof shell in extreme weather conditions. The stretch binding at the cuffs is designed to be snug, so consider this if you frequently wear bulky watches or wrist-mounted equipment.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and appearance of the microfleece, we recommend a synthetic wash at 30°C. Washing at this temperature is sufficient to remove daily grime while protecting the recycled fibres from heat damage, which can lead to premature wear or loss of softness.
Avoid the use of bleach, as harsh chemicals will degrade the recycled polyester and may cause discolouration of your embroidered logo. Do not tumble dry or dry clean this garment; instead, reshape it while damp and allow it to air dry naturally. Drying the jacket out of direct sunlight will prevent the fabric from becoming stiff and preserve the vibrancy of the colour.
Ironing is strictly prohibited for this product. High heat from an iron will melt the synthetic microfleece fibres, leading to permanent damage and a shiny, flattened appearance on the fabric surface. Following these instructions ensures your investment remains a core part of your uniform for seasons to come.
