ur revolutionary Ultimate Fabric (formerly Pontella) was the fi rst of its kind and is still unrivalled to this day. Specifi cally designed to withstand the industrial laundering process, including the harsh tunnel drying technique, it is comfortable, yet durable and hardwearing. The Ultimate range offers excellent colour retention with exceptional size and shape stability. The Ultimate Polo Shirt is the unsurpassed garment to include in any laundry rental contract and should last the lifetime of the contract, eliminating the need to implement expensive uniform refreshers.
As a division of J & A International Ltd, the team at ID Workwear serves as a driving force behind our sustainability goals, encouraging a commitment towards creating a greener future together. In our continued efforts to achieve sustainability, we are immensely proud to announce that our Ultimate Polo Shirts are now being manufactured using Recycled Ultimate Polyester threads whilst retaining all the original attributes.

So, along with the recycled polyester threads, we have also ensured that the back neck label, garment care label and swing tags are all crafted from recycled materials.
commonplace, through inadequate recycling, incineration, and improper landfi ll disposal. Sadly, the impact of this mismanagement extends beyond landfi lls with an astonishing one to two million tonnes of plastic entering our oceans each year, resulting in harmful consequences for marine wildlife and ecosystems. Our research underscored the urgency of addressing this issue to minimise environmental harm and propelled us to develop what has now become the Ultimate Recycled Polo Shirt. Following an extensive three-year project, we can now proudly say that ID Workwear’s Ultimate Polyester threads are produced from the process of recycling plastic bottles. This process begins with the collection of plastic bottles (PET), which are then crushed, washed, and transformed
This marks another positive step for our company, whose collective focus is on reducing our impact on the environment, wherever possible.
Following this successful launch, ID Workwear remains committed to our mission. We are actively engaged in multiple ongoing projects aimed at improving sustainability across our products and services and we will have further exciting announcements in the near future.
