Support from Preens Apparelmaster
For over 10 years Preens Apparelmaster have been providing a range of workwear solutions for Tecpak. White and blue overalls are one of the most important. The white overalls are used in the production facility and workers are unable to go past the demarcation line without their ‘whites’ on.
“Our workwear solutions are business critical – we simply can’t operate without them.” Geoff Racz, Production Manager at Tecpak
The blue overalls, however, are for the servicing team. This is because grease shows up excessively on white – the blue overalls being much more forgiving. Embroidery is also provided by Preens Apparelmaster, personalising each team members workwear. Too add to this, with Tecpak often having temporary staff on site, casual overalls are also required. Because the staff are only temporary, Preens Apparelmaster provides a range of sets in different sizes to cater to this.
Not only do they provide workwear and embroidery, but Preens Apparealmaster also supply Tecpak with mops, mats and towels. Assorted mop heads are provided by Preens Apparelmaster to clean specific areas of the facility. Mats are also provided for the reception and café areas, keeping those areas safer and minimizing slip zone issues. And towels are supplied as Roller Cabinet Towel Systems in the washrooms and tea towels in the café.
“Everything works like clockwork – Preens Apparelmaster make it really easy.” Geoff Racz, Production Manager at Tecpak

Being able to provide a company like Tecpak with all the workwear solutions as well as mops, tea towels, mats, and personalized embroidery solutions for staff, makes it all so easy.

Over 25 Years Great Service
Tecpac has been a customer of Preens Apparelmaster for over 25 Years. In that time, the team at Preens Apparelmaster have tweaked the garments and brought them up to modern standards as time went on. Originally the Tecpak team were in standard polycotton overalls but these proved to be too hot, so Preens Apparelmaster changed to the lightest weight polycotton for the sake of keeping the Tecpak team comfortable.
