Product Overview
The Premier Kids Waterproof Apron is an essential protective garment designed specifically for younger users engaged in creative or liquid-based activities. Whether in a nursery, primary school, or a supervised play environment, this bib apron serves as a robust barrier against spills, paints, and water. Constructed with safety as a primary concern, it addresses the unique needs of children with a design that is as functional as it is durable, ensuring that school uniforms and clothing remain pristine during messy play sessions.
Key Features
- Waterproof Polyurethane Coating: The polyester fabric is treated with a PU coating to ensure liquids bead off the surface, preventing moisture from seeping through to the wearer's clothing.
- Integrated Safety Release Mechanism: The neckband features a snap-release safety mechanism designed to break away under strain, mitigating the risk of accidental injury or entanglement.
- Adjustable Neckband: An integrated adjuster allows the bib height to be modified, ensuring an ergonomic fit for children of various sizes within the age brackets.
- Secure Self-Fabric Ties: Equipped with 50cm ties, the apron can be securely fastened at the waist to remain stable during active use.
Design & Performance
Engineered from 100% polyester, this apron is exceptionally lightweight while maintaining high levels of durability. The fabric choice is deliberate, offering a flexible feel that does not restrict a child's movement, which is crucial for development during play. The polyurethane coating provides a resilient shield against fluids without adding unnecessary bulk. Available in both Infant (3/6 years) and Junior (7/10 years) sizing, the garment is designed to provide maximum coverage from the chest to the knee, depending on the child's height.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
Despite its waterproof coating, this apron is fully compatible with our customisation services. Embroidery is an excellent choice for a professional and permanent finish, ideal for displaying school crests or nursery names with high-definition thread work. For those seeking larger, more vibrant designs or individual names, our printing process offers a bold and durable alternative. Every garment is handled by our expert in-house team in Telford, who have been perfecting workwear decoration since 1976. We ensure that any customisation maintains the integrity of the safety features while providing a superior professional appearance.
Use Cases
This garment is perfectly suited for educational environments, including nurseries and primary schools, specifically for art classes and "wet-play" sessions. It is also an ideal choice for children's cooking workshops or hospitality businesses that offer "mini-chef" experiences. Its professional construction also makes it suitable for community craft groups and home use where high-level clothing protection is required.

Practical Advice
To ensure the best protection, we recommend selecting the size based on the child's age and height. If the apron is to be worn over thick winter jumpers or outdoor coats, the Junior size may provide better coverage for children at the upper end of the Infant age range. Ensure the safety neckband is adjusted so the bib sits comfortably at the top of the chest for optimal spill protection.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the performance of the waterproof barrier requires adherence to specific laundering instructions. This apron is safe for a domestic wash at 60°C, which is necessary for removing common school-day stains and ensuring the garment is hygienically clean for the next use.
For high-turnover environments such as commercial nurseries, the fabric is also suitable for industrial laundering at temperatures up to 85°C. This high-temperature tolerance is vital for thorough sanitisation but should be used in accordance with the fabric's limits to prevent premature wear.
We advise against the use of bleach or aggressive chemical cleaners, as these can strip the polyurethane coating and compromise the waterproof properties. Proper care ensures that both the garment and your custom branding remain in excellent condition for the duration of the apron's life.
