“Our core business over the years has been providing safe and durable workwear that comply with all the safety standards required to go to work safely,” Jack said.
“Each item of clothing, especially if it is high-visibility, has to meet the Australian safety standards.
“The companies that supply us with products have had the items rigorously tested to Australian safety standards so that they comply with all the requirements, such as brightness for day-night wear and durability.
“The same is true for footwear, as all the footwear we sell complies with Australian safety standards.”
Hip Pocket Workwear Echuca has a full range of high-visibility clothes, including items embossed with reflective tape for people working at night.
The business works with a wide range of businesses, including schools, hospitals, councils and light and heavy industry, to supply workwear and occupational health and safety products.
In addition to supplying high-quality clothing that meets Australian safety standards, Hip Pocket Workwear Echuca has a large embroidery business.
This means it carries out a lot of corporate and promotional work around town for businesses, health services, sporting and community groups.
“All corporate logos can be embroidered on to every garment that we sell, and in this day and age, most companies want corporate branding on their apparel,” Jack said.
“Hip Pocket Workwear Echuca supports many fundraising organisations that are trying to develop their community profiles with wearable merchandise.
“We do a fair bit of embroidery work in the horse industry, with lightweight horse rugs and similar items popular for embroidery.
“It is amazing what industries we work in.”
