How to choose the right Aprons
- Match apron style to role: full bib aprons for kitchen and prep, waist or bistro aprons for waiting staff, bar and coffee service.
- Consider length and coverage based on your work area, from short waist aprons for mobility to extra long bib aprons for maximum protection.
- Select fabric to suit workload and laundry setup, choosing polycotton or canvas for durability and frequent commercial washing.
- Use colours and patterns such as butcher stripe or solid shades to align with your brand and clearly identify different teams or sections.
- Decide on pocket layout for pens, order pads, thermometers and payment devices to keep essential tools close at hand.
- Check tie style and neck design for comfort during long shifts, especially in hot kitchens or busy bar environments.
Care and maintenance
- Wash aprons regularly at the temperatures recommended by the manufacturer to remove food residues and maintain hygiene standards.
- Pre treat heavy stains such as grease, wine and sauces before washing to extend the life and appearance of the fabric.
- Avoid harsh bleach or overly aggressive detergents on coloured aprons to prevent fading and fabric damage.
- Dry aprons thoroughly before storage to reduce odours and minimise the risk of mildew in busy commercial laundries.
- Inspect ties, seams and pockets for wear and repair or replace damaged aprons promptly to maintain a professional image.
- Store clean aprons in a dry, designated area away from food preparation surfaces to keep them ready for service.
