Product Overview
The Premier PR110 Striped Bib Apron is a foundational garment for the catering and hospitality industry. Known colloquially as the 'Butcher's' style apron, this traditional piece provides extensive coverage and a professional aesthetic that has remained a favourite among culinary professionals for decades. Measuring a generous 101cm in length, it offers substantial protection against the inevitable splashes and spills of a busy kitchen or service environment.
Key Features
- Traditional 'Butcher's' style vertical stripes provide a classic, authoritative look for kitchen and front-of-house staff.
- The full bib design ensures maximum chest-to-knee protection, preserving the underlying uniform from stains.
- Self-fabric neckband and ties offer a cohesive design and consistent feel, avoiding the irritation sometimes caused by synthetic webbed straps.
- Generous dimensions (72cm width by 101cm length) ensure a comfortable fit for most adult body types.
Design & Performance
Material choice is paramount in professional kitchens. The Navy/White and Black/White variants are constructed from 100% cotton, offering a medium-weight, breathable feel that is ideal for high-temperature environments where natural fibres are preferred for comfort. The Black/Grey option features a durable polycotton blend (65% Polyester, 35% Cotton) with woven stripes, providing enhanced crease resistance and longevity for high-turnover service roles.
The fabric is resilient and designed to withstand the physical demands of food preparation, from the heat of the pass to the mechanical stress of constant movement. The stripes are either printed or woven into the fabric, ensuring they remain distinct and professional after repeated use.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Premier PR110 is an excellent canvas for brand identity. At MyWorkwear, our Telford-based team has been perfecting garment customisation since 1976. For this apron, we recommend embroidery for company logos and staff names, as the textured stitching provides a professional appearance that complements the traditional stripe pattern.
If you require larger-scale branding or high-impact visuals, our print services are equally effective. Because we handle all customisation in-house, we can ensure that your designs are positioned precisely to remain visible even when the apron is in use. Both methods are designed to withstand the rigorous laundering required for catering workwear.
Use Cases
This apron is ideally suited for butchers, chefs, and kitchen porters who require a robust barrier against food waste and fluids. It is also a popular choice for front-of-house staff in bistros and traditional cafes, where a heritage aesthetic is desired to enhance the customer experience.
Why MyWorkwear
With a heritage stretching back to 1976, MyWorkwear understands that workwear is more than just clothing; it is essential equipment. Operating from our technical facility in Telford, we combine decades of expertise with modern machinery to ensure every apron leaving our doors meets our high standards for quality and durability.
Practical Advice
This is a one-size garment, making it a practical choice for businesses with high staff turnover or varied team sizes. When tying the apron, ensure the ties are secure but allow for ease of movement; the self-fabric ties are designed to stay knotted even during active shifts. For those working in particularly hot environments, the 100% cotton variants offer the best moisture management.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and professional appearance of your apron, follow the specific temperature guidelines provided. This garment is designed for industrial laundering at up to 85°C, which is necessary to effectively break down heavy fats and organic matter that accumulate in commercial kitchens.
For domestic cleaning, a wash at 60°C is recommended. Using a lower temperature may fail to fully sanitise the garment or remove stubborn food stains, which can lead to permanent discolouration and a decline in hygiene standards. Avoid using bleach on coloured or striped sections to prevent fading and damage to the custom embroidery or print.
