Services
Embroidery
Our bespoke embroidery service professionally stitches logos or text onto corporate clothing, workwear, and sportswear. Using in-house machinery, we ensure durability and precision for logos up to 12 colours. This premium method suits businesses seeking long-lasting branding solutions that elevate their professional image while maintaining cost-effectiveness for multi-coloured designs.
Printing
We offer cost-effective printing techniques including vinyl transfers, full-colour heat transfers, and sublimation for light-coloured polyester garments. These methods deliver detailed, fade-resistant results ideal for large logos or intricate designs. Our expertise ensures vibrant, long-lasting prints tailored to workwear and sportswear requirements while maintaining flexibility across complex branding needs.
Sustainable Clothing
We promote 100% organic cotton garments certified by Soil Association or GOTS standards, alongside Fairtrade and Fairwear options. Our sustainable clothing range reduces water usage, eliminates harmful chemicals, and ensures ethical labour practices. This commitment extends to recycling programs for branded workwear, aligning with modern businesses' environmental responsibilities while maintaining quality and functionality.
Workwear Recycling
Our recycling service securely removes branding from old workwear before repurposing materials for community projects or industrial reuse. We provide two solutions: material redistribution to local charities or fibre shredding for underlay applications, complete with disposal certification. This service helps businesses minimize landfill waste while maintaining brand security through responsible recycling practices.
Corporate Apparel
We specialize in creating professional corporate attire that reflects brand identity through customized embroidery and printing. Our solutions cater to businesses of all sizes, offering durable, functional garments that employees take pride in wearing. By integrating eco-friendly options and tailored design guidance, we ensure both visual impact and practicality for long-term use in diverse workplace environments.

We've used the Sigma team multiple times now and we are always impressed by their diligence and consideration when preparing our orders.
Sigma make sure the placement and quality of the embroidery and printing is spot on for our specific preferences, rather than just slapping it on anywhere which is always most appreciated! Everybody we've interacted with at Sigma are friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable. Would highly recommend!

The team at Sigma are fantastic. We had an order that needed to be turned around ASAP before we could start operating again after Covid-19 and the team were superb. They rushed the proofs over, recommended some alternative clothing options which we hadn't thought of and delivered earlier than they said they would. And best yet, the team are over the moon with the workwear and say it's more comfortable and easier to work in. This is our first time ordering from Sigma and we won't be going anywhere else in future!

Id thoroughly recommend Kim and the team at Sigma, they worked hard to ensure we received the right looking workwear that best represented our brand. We have a fairly difficult logo but it was no problem for Sigma who gave us plenty of options, designs and styles. All complete in exceptional time and to a high standard. Finally their Eco Sustainable range is a real breath of fresh air in the clothing market, super comfy and hard wearing.
Thanks, well be back!
