Automotive Uniforms

The Science of Uniform^® is our research-led methodology for designing and managing uniform programmes that improve colleague wellbeing, strengthen brand identity and perform operationally across large organisations.

Our research has identified more than 240 factors that influence whether a uniform programme succeeds. For automotive, they include:

• durability and movement for technicians and manufacturing teams
• safety and compliance across plants and workshops
• front-of-house presentation for service advisors and sales teams
• role-tiered ranges for multi-site dealer networks
• stock control and replenishment across every site

For Jaguar Land Rover, the new programme reached 98.8% wearer satisfaction and a 33% increase in garment longevity.

Our 2026 research with Coventry University and World Retail Congress, Before a Word Is Spoken, surveyed 2,500 consumers and 2,573 uniform-wearing employees. For automotive, it found:

• 60% of consumers are more likely to approach a uniformed employee than one without.
• 50% say an employee's uniform affects how much they trust their advice.
• 89% of manufacturing employees say comfortable workwear is important to doing their job.

For manufacturers and dealer networks across many sites, uniform needs more than supply. It needs a structured system for consistency, compliance and cost control across every plant and dealership.
