FAQs
What material is the Portwest Bib Apron made from?
The apron is made from Kingsmill Polycotton, which is 65% Polyester and 35% Cotton, featuring a Texpel™ Splash Eco finish.
What are the dimensions of the apron?
The dimensions are 70.5cm in width and 95cm in length.
Is the apron suitable for industrial washing machines?
Yes, it is designed for regular washing and can withstand a maximum wash temperature of 60°C. Professional dry cleaning is also an option.
How does the Texpel™ Splash Eco finish work?
This finish is designed to repel liquids such as water, oil, and grime, causing them to bead up on the fabric surface and preventing them from soaking through.
Can I adjust the fit of the apron?
Yes, the apron features an adjustable neck strap for a secure fit and long waist ties that can be fastened as needed.
Is this apron suitable for commercial kitchens?
Absolutely. Its durable, water-resistant, and stain-repellent properties, combined with its professional appearance, make it highly suitable for kitchen environments.
What does PFAS-free mean in relation to the finish?
PFAS-free means the fabric finish does not contain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, which are often used for waterproofing but can have environmental concerns. This apron uses an eco-friendlier alternative.
Troubleshooting
Apron feels too loose or too tight around the neck.
Adjust the neck strap using the slider mechanism until a comfortable and secure fit is achieved.
Waist ties are difficult to secure or keep coming undone.
Ensure the ties are crossed and tied securely in a double knot. Check that they are not excessively frayed.
Stains are difficult to remove after washing.
While the Texpel™ finish offers resistance, heavy or old stains may require pre-treatment. For stubborn stains, consult specific stain removal guides for polycotton blends, always testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Color appears faded after multiple washes.
Ensure you are washing according to the recommended maximum temperature (60°C) and avoid harsh detergents or excessive bleaching agents. Use color-safe detergents if possible.
