Install of new Machines

Well we have finally had the delivery today, 4 new toyota 9100 embroidery machines, and the latest Wilcom software. We decided at the end of last year to upgrade our old machines as they were getting on and have worked hard for us over the years. The installation took one day and as I speak I can hear the embroidery machines running, our decision to go with the Toyota machines was a simple one, we have had them for many years and have always felt that the service, reliability and speed has always been high, plus the quality of finished work is better than I have seen from many other manufacturers machines. We also have always worked with a modular system purley so it gives us a totally flexible machine room, and if one machine breaks down or we need an urgent swatch the other machines can carry on with other jobs. The Wilcom software update is a welcome addition to our portfolio, it has been recently released with intergration onto Corel Draw, which means we can interlock print and embroidery or use your same artwork from embroidery or print without any problems.

Tuff stuff work trousers

I did also say I would be wearing the Trousers, from the new year onwards and I am glad to say I have been, they seem to be comfortable, well made, wash well and above all I get people commenting on how good they look and they would love to use them as well, the one thing that the trousers really impress on is the price under £25.00 for what I can only desribe as a fantastic tough work trouser, will report more on the work trousers once I have washed them more and generally abused them as best I can !

Bar gear New for 2009

As is always the way at this time of year the corporate, workwear, and promotional industry refreshes its ranges for the new year with new catolouges and product lines. One that I have seen develop over the years is Kustom Kit, they have for this year amongst others released the Bar Gear range, this is aimed soley at the hospitality industry, having 1.7 million people employed and a worth of £55-£60 millon per year you can see why they have developed it. The range fashonable yet fuctional with tailoring specifically aimed at the hospitality sector, with stretch fabrics providing greater comfort and fit. T King Associates Ltd will be listing the range in our new catolouge for 09 and will get the range on line shortly, we have used Kustom Kit for a number of years and always had good feedback, they always embroider / print well and have a great finish. We recently sponsored a local collage race team with their team wear shirts, again a Kustom Kit range and garment, we matched up the print colour to the green trim fabric to give a really bespoke feel to the shirts, comments from the team manager were "Hi John,
just had our team photo, thought you might like to see how they look. I hope you are as proud of them as we are to wear them, they look cool!
The project is really coming on now, and we have support from the Lamborghini Club UK as well now" Sean McGill.
