Garments Division · Workwear & Flame Resistant

Industrial Workwear and Flame-Resistant Clothing, Made to Your Specification

We manufacture industrial workwear and protective clothing in our own garment setup in Lahore — fabric sourcing and inspection, pattern engineering, cutting, industrial stitching, reflective tape application, quality gates and export-ready packing, all under one roof.

About the Workwear Division

Protective clothing is a specification business

Workwear is bought against a document, not a photograph. The buyer has a fabric, a weight, a standard to meet, a set of pocket and closure details, and a delivery date — and the garment either matches that document or it does not.

Our workwear division is built around holding that document. Fabric is inspected on arrival, patterns are engineered for the specification rather than adapted from a nearby style, and construction is checked at defined gates rather than only at the end. Where flame resistance or high visibility is required, the material route and the evidence route are agreed in writing before anything is cut.

We work with distributors, industrial buyers and uniform suppliers who need a manufacturer able to repeat a specification order after order.

Core Specialisation

Four areas we build for

Each has its own material logic, its own construction discipline and its own evidence requirements.

Flame-Resistant Garments

Coveralls, pant-and-shirt sets, jackets and cargo trousers in both inherent and treated flame-resistant materials.

High-Visibility Safety Wear

Reflective vests, hi-vis jackets and supervisor and executive vests, with tape placement engineered to the class being targeted.

Industrial Workwear

Cargo trousers, technician uniforms and corporate uniforms for daily industrial wear, built for wash cycles and abrasion.

Cold Storage Apparel

Freezer jackets and trousers with flexible nylon outers and hypoallergenic linings, cut to allow unrestricted movement.

Where It Is Worn

Built for environments where failure is not an option

The end environment sets the specification. These are the sectors our workwear is made for.

Material Route

FR or IFR — the decision that sets your cost

Flame resistance is achieved in one of two ways, and the choice drives price, lifecycle and who the garment is suitable for. We offer both, and we will tell you plainly which one your risk profile actually needs.

Option A

Flame Resistant — treated

  • Chemically treated cotton fabrics
  • Lower cost per garment
  • Flame resistance reduces over the wash cycle, so lifecycle is limited
  • Suited to general industrial use
  • Sensible for shorter-term projects and lower-exposure roles
Option B

Inherent Flame Resistant — IFR

  • Protection built into the fibre itself
  • Does not wash out over the life of the garment
  • Higher durability and a longer service life, which can lower cost per wear
  • Used in oil and gas, utilities, military and firefighting
  • Appropriate for high-risk, daily exposure
A cheaper treated garment replaced three times is not cheaper than one inherent garment. Where you are buying for daily high-risk exposure, ask us to cost both routes over the expected service life before you decide.

Fabric Capability

The materials we work in

Treated FR fabrics. Pyrovatex® and Proban® treated cottons, and other FR chemical coatings, selected against the wash-cycle expectation for the role.

Inherent FR fabrics. Nomex®, Kevlar® blends, modacrylic blends, aramid-based fabrics and FR viscose blends, for permanent fibre-level protection.

Everyday industrial fabrics. Twill cotton, poly-cotton blends, cotton canvas and knit hi-vis fabrics, mercerized, sanforized and pre-shrunk where the specification calls for it.

On brand names. Nomex®, Kevlar®, Pyrovatex® and Proban® are the registered trade marks of their respective owners. We name them because buyers specify them; the mill and the certificate covering any given order are confirmed in writing before production.

Standards

Standards we manufacture to

These are the standards buyers most often specify for the garments we build. They describe what the product must achieve — not a certification that Innovatex Hub itself holds.

EN ISO 11612Protection against heat and flame
EN ISO 11611Protection during welding and allied processes
EN ISO 14116Limited flame spread
EN ISO 20471High-visibility clothing
EN 343Protection against rain
CE Category I / IIPPE categories under the EU framework
Who holds what. Where an order must be supplied as certified protective equipment, production runs at a certified partner facility, and the certificate is issued to the certificate holder named on it. Innovatex Hub does not hold these certifications in its own name. The applicable standard, the testing route and the covering certificate are confirmed in writing before production begins, and copies are available on request.

Working Process

Nine controlled steps from fabric to shipment

Each step produces something that has to be signed off before the next one starts.

1

Fabric Sourcing & Inspection

Fabric is sourced against the specification and inspected on arrival for weight, width, shade and faults.

2

FR Treatment & Certification

Where a treated route is used, treatment and its supporting documentation are arranged before cutting.

3

Pattern Development & Sampling

Patterns are engineered to the specification and a sample is produced for approval.

4

Cutting & Industrial Stitching

Bulk cutting and stitching against the approved sample on dedicated industrial lines.

5

Reinforcement

Bartack and reinforced seaming at the stress points that decide how long the garment lasts.

6

Reflective Tape Application

Heat-applied reflective tape positioned to the class and layout agreed for the order.

7

Quality Inspection

Inline and final inspection against a written checklist, with the record kept for the order.

8

Finishing & Packaging

Pressing, folding, labelling and packing to the buyer's packing specification.

9

Export Documentation

Shipping and export documentation prepared and issued with the consignment.

In-House Capability

What we can hold on our own floor

Industrial Stitching Lines

Dedicated lines for workwear construction, with reinforced seaming and bartack stitching at stress points.

Reflective Tape Application

Heat application of reflective tape, positioned and pressed for adhesion through repeated wash cycles.

Embroidery & Logo Branding

Company logo embroidery, name patches and badge application to the buyer's artwork.

Heat Transfer Printing

Transfer printing and heat pressing for marking, sizing and branding.

Bulk Production Handling

Capacity to run repeat bulk orders without development work queueing behind production.

Export-Grade Packaging

Packing, cartoning and palletising to export standard, with barcode and RFID labelling where required.

Quality Control

Seven checks, written down

  • Fabric GSM verification — weight confirmed against the specification before cutting
  • Shrinkage and wash testing — so sizing holds after the customer's first wash
  • Colour fastness testing — particularly where hi-vis or dual-colour fabrics are used
  • Seam strength testing — on the seams that carry load in wear
  • FR durability testing — where a flame-resistant route has been specified
  • Reflective tape adhesion — checked after wash, not just after application
  • Final inspection before shipment — against the written checklist for that order

What We Manufacture

Garment families and the constructions we build in them

These are the constructions we produce regularly. Each is a starting point: fabric, weight, closures, pocketing, tape layout and branding are all set by your specification.

Coveralls

Full-body, full-shift

The workhorse of industrial protection. Construction changes considerably depending on whether flame resistance is inherent, treated or not required at all.

Why Innovatex Hub

A manufacturer, not a middleman

Plenty of suppliers will quote you a workwear price. Fewer will tell you which flame-resistance route your risk profile actually needs, or that the standard you have specified will not be achievable in the fabric you have asked for.

  • Development and bulk on our own floor, so the sample maker and the production line share a building
  • Written confirmation at each gate, with changes recorded against the specification
  • Honest separation between what we manufacture and what we supply as a partner
  • Your branding, trims and specifications treated as confidential and used only for your order
