Claimed by organisers to be the UK’s only workwear exhibition, The Workwear and Corporate Clothes Show is being launched in April 2008 by Ocean Events.
Lorne Cheetham, managing director of Ocean Events said: “Nearly half the UK’s working population wears some form of uniform to their place of work, it is therefore essential for buyers and suppliers to have a visual platform to showcase their innovations in design, textile technology and new product development.
“The show will illustrate how diverse the industry is. We hope to represent every spectrum of workwear suitable for every walk of life, from corporate tailored suits, to high-vis reflective gear, to nursing uniforms, protective equipment, boiler suits, hard hats, or chef’s whites. It is therefore going to be a highly colourful and interesting show which we aim to be the definitive event for the industry.”
Ocean Events said that there will be around 100 exhibition stands at the inaugural event, alongside catwalk fashion shows and demonstrations.
