Why do housekeeping uniforms wear out faster?

Daily hot washing and tumble drying fade colour and weaken seams faster than office wear. That is why counts per person are higher and the programme file is kept for regular reorders.

Can staff choose between a dress and trousers?

Yes. Both can be specified for the same role, in the same colour and fabric family.

How quickly can we reorder?

Reorders are made from the programme file. The reorder plan is USD 120 per reorder, or included above an agreed annual value; your reorder quote gives the date.

Hospitality role

Housekeeping uniforms for hot washes and long shifts

Room attendants bend, lift and push carts for eight hours, and their uniforms go through the hotel laundry every day. The spec starts from movement and washing, then the look.

Hot-wash colours
Dress or trousers

Role spec

Housekeeping: garment by garment

The spec our team writes for this role. Your samples confirm each line, and the final spec stays in your programme file.

Garment	Usual spec	Details to decide	Per person
Tunic or dress	Poly-cotton with stretch, colour-fast for hot washes	Length, sleeves, side vents, modest cut	3 to 4
Trousers	Poly-cotton with stretch waist	Straight or relaxed leg	3
Tabard or apron	Poly-cotton twill	Pocket layout for cloths and keys	3
Laundry and public-area wear	Polo or shirt with trousers	Darker colours for heavy work	3 to 4
Supervisor look	Same fabric family, different colour or jacket	Shows rank at a glance	3

Counts are a common starting point. Hot industrial washes shorten garment life, so the reorder plan matters most for this role.

Built for the laundry

Fabric that survives the hotel laundry

Housekeeping uniforms are washed far more than any other hotel garment. We ask how your laundry runs (in-house or outside, temperature, tumble drying) before choosing fabric and colour, and the answer goes into the spec.

Questions to settle before samples

Roles: room attendants, public areas, laundry, supervisors
Laundry: in-house or outside service, wash temperature
Cuts: tunic, dress or trousers, modest lengths
Colours that hide wear from daily washing
Pockets for master keys and phones
