Corporate Uniforms Australia
Corporate uniforms that fit your team, carry your brand and match from the first order to the hundredth.
Crest Promos supplies corporate uniforms and branded workwear to Australian businesses, from a single cafe to teams spread across every state. We help you choose garments that suit each role and the climate they work in, collect sizes with fitting kits, embroider your logo to your brand colours and deliver each uniform packed by name. One account manager looks after your range, so new starters and reorders always match what the rest of the team is wearing.
Corporate uniforms and corporate shirts for every role
Create a cohesive team image with a range that stays consistent from first order to reorder. We help businesses build corporate uniforms that fit each role, support their brand identity and suit the conditions people work in. We favour core styles that stay in makers' ranges for years, so a consistent uniform program can bring your brand to life and build a stronger sense of belonging across the team.
| Role | Garments | What matters |
|---|---|---|
| Office and corporate | Corporate shirts, blouses, polos, knitwear, blazers | A sharp fit, easy-care fabrics and colours that suit your palette and workplace |
| Customer-facing and retail | Polos, shirts, aprons, caps, name badges | Looking consistent and approachable for client-facing teams, all day |
| Hospitality and cafes | Aprons, chef jackets, polos, caps | Durable, washable fabrics that cope with heat and stains |
| Trades and field staff | Work shirts, drill pants, softshell jackets, caps, wide-brim hats | Hard-wearing fabric, sun protection and room to move |
| Site and industrial | Hi-vis shirts and jackets, cargo pants, beanies | Compliance with hi-vis standards, plus comfort over long shifts |
| Health and allied health | Scrubs, polos, tunics, jackets | Comfortable, washable and professional in front of patients |
| Events and volunteers | Tees, polos, caps, lanyards | Easy to recognise and affordable in larger numbers |
Most businesses need only a short core range of corporate clothing, such as a polo, a long-sleeve shirt, a jacket and a cap or beanie, plus role-specific work uniforms. Keeping it short makes sizing, stock and reorders simpler, and keeps your presence consistent across roles and sites.
Getting the fit right
Sizing is where most uniform orders go wrong. Sizes vary between brands, people guess, and the result is a pile of exchanges in the first week.
Fitting kits
We send a fitting kit with one of each garment in every size, so your team can try on the actual uniform before you order. For businesses with several sites, kits can travel between sites or go to every location at once.
One simple size form
We give you a size form or spreadsheet for each site, with columns for name, role, garment and size, plus notes such as a longer length or a women's cut. Your site contacts fill it in, and we check it for gaps before the order is placed.
Inclusive sizing and cuts
We source ranges with men's, women's and unisex cuts, with sizes from XS to 5XL and beyond on most lines. That includes tailored trousers, skirts and dresses for office teams, so everyone gets a uniform that suits them while the team still looks consistent.
A buffer for the first few weeks
We recommend a small buffer of common sizes at each site, or held with us, to cover new starters and any size swaps without waiting on a new order.
Branding your uniforms for brand consistency
Embroidery is the standard for corporate uniforms because it usually lasts as long as the garment and looks sharp through hundreds of washes. Branded uniforms also give your team a credible, professional image in the workplace and in public, where they work as mobile advertising. We match each colour in your logo to the closest thread and show the thread codes on your proof, so you can check them against your brand guidelines before anything is stitched.
| Method | Best for | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Embroidery | Polos, shirts, jackets, caps, knitwear | Durable and professional, the usual choice for logos on the chest |
| Screen printing | Tees, large back prints, event wear | Inks mixed to your Pantone references, cost-effective in larger runs |
| Heat transfers | Hi-vis, technical fabrics, names and numbers | Works on fabrics that can't be embroidered or printed directly, and won't perforate reflective tape |
| Woven patches and badges | Caps, jackets, beanies | Holds fine detail that embroidery can't |
Every proof shows the logo size and position on each garment, such as a left-chest logo or a larger print across the back. We can also add names, role titles or site names under the logo, which helps customers know who they're speaking to and makes staff easier to identify on site.
Uniform rules we help you get right
Corporate uniforms come with obligations that are easy to miss. We'll raise them while we plan your range, so they're built in from the start.
Hi-vis and protective workwear
For staff who work near traffic, machinery or on site, high-visibility clothing counts as personal protective equipment, which employers must provide. Our hi-vis is certified to AS 4602.1:2024 or the earlier AS/NZS 4602.1:2011, and we place your logo so it doesn't cover the reflective tape or reduce the visible area. Our guide to hi-vis workwear standards explains the requirements.
Award uniform and laundry allowances
If your uniform is compulsory, many modern awards require you to supply it or reimburse the cost, and some include a laundry allowance. Check the uniform clause in the award or enterprise agreement that covers your staff before you set your budget.
Tax-claimable uniforms
If part of your uniform is optional and you'd like staff to be able to claim it at tax time, the design needs to be on the AusIndustry Register of Approved Occupational Clothing. It's best to apply before production starts.
Sun protection
For outdoor workers, Cancer Council Australia recommends broad-brimmed or legionnaire hats rather than caps, along with long-sleeved, collared shirts. We'll suggest sun-safe options for outdoor roles alongside the rest of the range.
This is general information. For advice on your obligations, check with your HR, safety or legal advisers.
Rollouts, stock and reorders
New uniform rollouts
Launching a new uniform across several sites takes planning, and it matters even more for businesses with high staff turnover, where sizes, starters and site deliveries need constant coordination. We work back from your go-live date, send fitting kits to each site, collect and check sizes, approve proofs and samples, then pack every uniform by person and every carton by site. Deliveries arrive ahead of go-live, so there's time to swap sizes before the day. Our guide to managing a uniform rollout across multiple locations covers the process step by step.
Stock held for you
Once your range is set, we can hold decorated stock of the core garments in common sizes and send them out as you need them. New starters get their uniform in days rather than waiting for a new production run, and you avoid cupboards full of sizes nobody wears.
Reorders that match
We keep your logo files, thread colours, garment codes and size history on record. Whether a site manager reorders next week or in two years, the new garments match the ones already being worn. If a garment is being discontinued, we'll tell you early and suggest the closest replacement before it runs out.
National teams
For businesses with sites in several states, we set up an approved range, allowances by role and one ordering channel. Each site orders what it needs, while head office keeps control of the brand, the budget and a consistent company image. Our guide to coordinating branded workwear for a national team explains how it works.

Corporate uniforms FAQ
What's the minimum order for corporate uniforms?
Embroidered garments start at 10 units per style, and you can mix sizes and colours within the same garment. Smaller top-ups for new starters can be drawn from held stock. Custom-made garments in your own colours need much larger quantities.
How long do corporate uniforms take?
Standard turnaround is 10 to 14 business days from proof approval, with rush jobs quoted on request. A full rollout across several sites takes longer, because fitting kits and size collection come first, and custom fabrics or colours can take two months or more. Tell us your go-live date at the start and we'll plan back from it.
Can you match our brand colours?
We match each logo colour to the closest embroidery thread and show the thread codes on your proof. Garment colours come from each maker's range, so we'll show you the closest options to your brand palette, including core professional colours such as navy. Printed logos use inks mixed to your Pantone references.
Can staff order their own uniforms?
Yes. We can set up an approved range with allowances by role and one ordering channel, so site managers or staff order within the rules you set.
Do you supply hi-vis workwear?
Yes. Our hi-vis is certified to AS 4602.1:2024 or the earlier AS/NZS 4602.1:2011, and we place your logo so it doesn't reduce the visible area or cover the reflective tape.
Can we try the uniforms before we order?
Yes. We send fitting kits with every size of each garment so your team can try them on, and for larger orders we can supply a pre-production sample of the decorated garment.
What should we do with our old uniforms?
Plan for it before the new range arrives. Branded clothing left in circulation can be a security risk and can affect how your company is seen, so decide how old garments will be collected from staff at go-live. Ask us when we plan your range and we'll talk through the options.
