Product Overview
The TriDri Ion-Charge recycled textured tee (TR503) represents a sophisticated approach to sustainable performance wear. Engineered for the modern professional who demands both environmental responsibility and technical excellence, this garment is constructed from a blend of recycled polyester. As part of the specialised Ion-Charge range, it utilises advanced cationic dyeing processes to ensure that colours remain deep and vibrant, even after rigorous use and repeated laundering.
Key Features
- Wicking Technology: The fabric is designed to actively pull moisture away from the skin, ensuring the wearer remains dry and comfortable during physically demanding shifts.
- UPF 40+ Protection: Integrated solar protection provides an essential barrier against ultraviolet rays, making this an ideal choice for those working outdoors.
- Cationic Dyed Fabric: This specific dyeing method eliminates the risk of dye migration and provides high resistance to fading and staining, ensuring your company colours stay sharp.
- Twin-Needle Stitching: Reinforced stitching on the hem and arms provides structural integrity, ensuring the garment can withstand the daily rigours of a busy work environment.
- Tagless Design: The absence of a branded neck label, combined with removable internal tags, prevents skin irritation and allows for a clean, professional feel.
Design & Performance
The performance of the TR503 is rooted in its lightweight, textured fabric. The blend of 83% recycled polyester and 17% polyester (with a modified ratio for the melange variants) offers a natural stretch that facilitates a full range of movement without the garment losing its shape. The textured finish adds a professional aesthetic that distinguishes it from standard flat-knit t-shirts.
Furthermore, the cationic dyeing is a critical technical feature for workwear. By bonding the dye deeply into the fibres, the fabric becomes exceptionally resistant to bleeding. This is particularly important for active individuals or those working in high-temperature environments where perspiration might otherwise cause lesser fabrics to lose their colour or stain.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This garment is an excellent candidate for both print and embroidery, and our in-house team in Telford—where we have been perfecting our craft since 1976—is ready to apply your branding with precision. Because of the cationic dyeing process, there is zero risk of dye migration, which means your printed logos will remain crisp and clear without the base colour of the shirt 'bleeding' through the ink.
For a traditional, highly professional appearance, we recommend embroidery for chest logos or staff names. If you require a larger, more impactful design on the back, our high-quality printing techniques will take full advantage of the smooth, stable surface provided by this well-engineered t-shirt.
Use Cases
The TR503 is versatile enough for a variety of sectors. It is particularly well-suited for the fitness and leisure industry, as well as for outdoor trades where moisture management and UV protection are paramount. It also serves as a superior choice for corporate events or promotional merchandise where a sustainable, high-quality garment reflects positively on the brand.

Practical Advice
This t-shirt features a generous size range from S to 5XL, catering to a wide variety of body types. The inclusion of removable 'Kimble' tags and a cut-away brand label makes it an excellent choice for businesses looking to create their own branded range without the irritation of bulky internal labels. We recommend sizing according to our chest measurements to ensure the best fit for performance activities.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance characteristics and the integrity of your custom branding, we recommend a domestic wash at 40°C. Washing at this temperature effectively removes dirt and sweat while protecting the technical fibres from heat damage.
Avoid the use of biological detergents or fabric softeners where possible, as these can sometimes coat the wicking fibres and reduce the garment's ability to manage moisture effectively. Always iron on the reverse of any printed or embroidered areas to prevent damage to the customisation.
