Product Overview
The Result Genuine Recycled Compass Beanie represents a thoughtful balance between environmental responsibility and practical site wear. This heavyweight headwear solution is crafted from a blend containing 50% recycled materials, repurposing the equivalent of a one-litre plastic bottle into a functional piece of uniform. Designed to complement the Black Compass range, it offers a professional aesthetic while providing the thermal protection required for the British winter.
Key Features
- Recycled Fabric Composition: Utilising 50% recycled acrylic, this beanie reduces plastic waste without compromising on the durability needed for daily use.
- Double Thickness Construction: The dual-layered knit provides an effective thermal barrier, retaining heat in demanding outdoor conditions.
- Soft-Feel Knit: The blend ensures a soft texture against the skin, avoiding the irritation often associated with traditional industrial headwear.
- Contrast Colour Deep Cuff: The deep, fold-over cuff adds an extra layer of warmth over the ears while offering a distinct, professional look.
Design & Performance
Engineered for longevity, this beanie features a dense, soft-feel knit that maintains its structure even after repeated wear. The double-thickness design is not merely for comfort; it serves a technical purpose by trapping air between the layers to provide superior insulation. Despite its heavyweight feel, the fabric remains breathable enough to prevent overheating during physical exertion. The inclusion of a tear-out label also ensures a clean finish, preventing any discomfort from internal tags during long shifts.
Customisation: Embroidery Only
For the Compass Beanie, we recommend embroidery as the exclusive customisation method. Knitwear possesses a natural stretch and a textured surface that makes traditional printing unsuitable, as prints can crack or fail to adhere correctly over time. Embroidery, however, allows your branding to be stitched directly into the fabric. Our in-house team in Telford, established in 1976, uses high-quality threads that flex with the knit, ensuring your company logo remains sharp, vibrant, and professional throughout the life of the garment.
Use Cases
This beanie is an essential accessory for any professional working in exposed environments. It is particularly suited for construction site staff, delivery drivers, and warehouse operatives who transition between cold loading bays and exterior spaces. Its understated design also makes it appropriate for site managers and surveyors who require a professional appearance while braving the elements.

Practical Advice
The Compass Beanie is supplied in a one-size-fits-all style, featuring a generous amount of stretch to accommodate various head sizes comfortably. To maximise thermal efficiency, ensure the deep cuff is folded correctly to provide double coverage over the ears and temples, which are key areas for heat loss.
Caring for your product
To maintain the thermal performance and appearance of your beanie, proper care is essential. We recommend a machine wash at 40°C on a permanent press cycle. This temperature is sufficient to remove dirt and oils while protecting the integrity of the recycled acrylic fibres.
Avoid the use of bleach, as harsh chemicals will degrade the synthetic fibres and cause the colours to fade prematurely. This item should not be tumble dried or dry cleaned; high heat and chemical solvents can cause the knit to lose its elasticity and shrink. Similarly, do not iron the beanie, as direct heat can melt the acrylic fibres and flatten the soft-feel knit.
Finally, always reshape the beanie while it is damp to ensure it returns to its original dimensions. This simple step prevents the fabric from becoming distorted during the drying process, ensuring a consistent fit every time you put it on.
