The city and the suburbs just north of it run on presentation. Front-desk staff in a George Street tower, bar crew on Caxton Street, event staff at the racecourses in Ascot, ground crew out at the airport: they all need to look like they belong to the same business, and they need the gear to survive a lot of washing.
That's the work we do. We digitise your logo in-house, stitch or print it onto the right garment, and keep the setup on file so next year's new starters match this year's team.
Embroidery in the Brisbane CBD for corporate teams
Offices in Brisbane City and Spring Hill mostly want something understated. A small, clean logo on the chest of a business shirt or knit polo looks sharp in a meeting and doesn't shout. Embroidery suits that brief because thread has a slight texture and sheen that reads as quality up close.
We stock business shirts in a range of cuts and colours from Biz Corporates and Biz Collection, plus knitwear and soft-shell jackets for the cooler months. Most CBD orders we see look something like this:
- Business shirts and blouses with a chest logo for client-facing staff
- Polos for IT, facilities and support teams
- Soft-shell and puffer jackets for staff who work outdoors or travel
- Caps and beanies for promo days and conferences
If you're outfitting a whole floor, our corporate uniforms page covers ranges, sizing and how we handle a rollout across several departments.
Hospitality and venue uniforms
Fortitude Valley, New Farm, Teneriffe and Petrie Terrace are packed with bars, restaurants and cafes. Hospitality gear works harder than office wear. It gets splashed, scrubbed and washed hot most days, so we steer venues towards darker colours, poly-cotton blends and embroidery rather than a print that will wear off at the cuffs.
- Aprons with an embroidered logo for baristas and floor staff
- Black tees or polos for bar crew, printed or stitched
- Chef jackets and caps for kitchen teams
- Hoodies for security and door staff on cold nights
Staff turnover in hospitality is quick, which is exactly why we keep your artwork on file. A single new apron or shirt matches the rest of the team, and there's no minimum, so you're not forced to order a box of ten to replace one.
T-shirt, screen and DTF printing for events
Event season around Hamilton, Ascot and the Valley keeps our printers busy. Race days at Eagle Farm and Doomben, launches along Racecourse Road, product activations and charity runs all need printed shirts, often on a tight deadline.
For larger runs of one design, screen printing is the cheapest way to go per shirt. For short runs, full-colour logos or a list of different names, DTF printing is quicker to set up and handles gradients well. We'll tell you which method suits the job once we see the artwork and the quantity. You can also read more about our t-shirt printing in Brisbane.
Uniforms and hi-vis around the airport
The Brisbane Airport precinct is its own world of freight, logistics, maintenance and ground handling businesses. Those teams need workwear that's tough, easy to spot and branded so staff can be identified on the apron or in the warehouse.
We supply hi-vis shirts, jackets and pants from Hard Yakka, King Gee and Syzmik, and add your logo with embroidery or a print that's placed clear of the reflective tape. Albion, Windsor and Lutwyche also have plenty of trades and small workshops that order the same kind of gear. See custom uniforms in Brisbane for the full range.
Sublimated kit for social sport and corporate teams
Plenty of CBD offices run a social touch, netball or futsal team, and inner-north suburbs like Wooloowin, Kalinga and Lutwyche have local clubs too. Sublimation suits that work. The design is dyed into polyester under heat, so it doesn't crack or peel and you can use as many colours as you like.
- Corporate challenge shirts in full colour
- Social sport jerseys with names and numbers at no extra cost
- Running singlets for charity events
- Club polos and training tops for local teams
On stock polyester garments there's no real minimum, so a seven-person office team is fine. Full cut-and-sew kit has a minimum and a longer lead time. Our sublimation page explains both options.
