Product Overview
The TriDri Ion-Charge performance vest (TR506) represents a significant advancement in sustainable activewear, engineered specifically for those who require high-performance apparel that does not compromise on environmental responsibility. As part of the innovative Ion-Charge range, this vest is constructed from a blend of recycled polyester, making it an excellent choice for businesses looking to enhance their corporate social responsibility profile while providing staff with superior equipment.

Key Features
- High-Performance Wicking Fabric: The advanced moisture-management properties pull sweat away from the skin, allowing it to evaporate quickly and keep the wearer dry during demanding tasks or training sessions.
- Cationic-Dyed Polyester: This specific dyeing technique prevents colour migration and resists fading, ensuring your brand colours remain vibrant and the fabric stays fresh even after multiple washes.
- Certified Recycled Materials: By utilizing GRS-certified recycled polyester, this garment provides a more sustainable choice without sacrificing the technical performance required of professional activewear.
- Ergonomic Design Details: Features such as a dropped hem for increased coverage and forward shoulder seams ensure a superior fit that moves with the body, preventing irritation during repetitive motions.
- Tagless Construction: The removal of traditional neck labels eliminates skin irritation, providing a more comfortable experience for the wearer throughout the day.
Design & Performance
This performance vest is crafted from a lightweight fabric that offers exceptional breathability and stretch. The 83% recycled polyester and 17% polyester blend provides the necessary elasticity for a full range of movement, which is essential for both athletic pursuits and active work roles. The smooth finish of the material is not merely for aesthetics; it provides an ideal surface for high-quality customisation, ensuring that logos and designs are rendered with precision.
Furthermore, the vest is accredited by WRAP, Amfori BSCI, and Oeko-Tex, providing peace of mind regarding the ethical and safe conditions under which the garment was manufactured. The inclusion of cationic dyes is a technical detail that professionals will appreciate, as it specifically targets the problem of bleeding and staining, keeping the garment looking newer for longer.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The TriDri Ion-Charge vest is highly versatile when it comes to branding. For those seeking a traditional, authoritative appearance, embroidery is recommended for chest logos or staff names. Our Telford-based team uses high-quality threads to ensure your logo is durable and professional.
Alternatively, the smooth finish of the cationic-dyed fabric is particularly well-suited for print. Large, bold designs on the back or front can be applied with excellent clarity, making this an ideal choice for team branding or event wear. Our in-house experts, established in 1976, will ensure that your chosen customisation method is executed to the highest standard, maintaining the integrity of the performance fabric.
Use Cases
This garment is perfectly suited for personal trainers, gym staff, and sports teams who require a professional uniform that can handle perspiration and movement. It is also an excellent choice for tradespeople working in high-temperature environments or for corporate wellness events where a lightweight, breathable layer is required.

Practical Advice
This vest is available in sizes ranging from Small (34") to 3XL (52"), catering to a wide variety of body types. Due to its lightweight nature and performance fit, it works exceptionally well as a primary layer in warm conditions or as a base layer under a lightweight jacket or sweatshirt during outdoor activities.
Caring for your product
To ensure your vest continues to perform at its peak and your branding remains intact, we recommend a machine wash at 40°C. Washing at this temperature effectively removes oils and perspiration without damaging the technical fibres of the recycled polyester.
Always wash the garment with similar colours to avoid any potential for cross-contamination of dyes. It is important to avoid the use of bleach, as harsh chemicals will break down the polyester fibres and significantly degrade the quality of both the fabric and any printed or embroidered logos.
Finally, do not dry clean this garment. The chemical solvents used in dry cleaning are unnecessary for this performance fabric and could damage the cationic dye and wicking properties that make this vest so effective.
