1 Market overview
1.1 Definition and presentation
Workwear includes 4 categories of clothing: uniforms, signaling clothing, technical clothing and protective clothing. These business sectors have very different dynamics, depending on the customer markets they address. For example, signaling clothing is highly dependent on the construction sector, while protective clothing is closely linked to the industrial sector.
