FOOD SERVICE CLOTHING

The features of food service clothing

There is no legislation yet specifying the characteristics of clothing for the food sector, but there are generally three basic indications that this type of clothing has in common:

• The pockets, when present, must only be attached to the inside of the garment and must be closed with Velcro;

• There can’t be zipper or plastic buttons, but only steel. For buttons it is better if they are snap-on ;

• The sleeves must have elastic at the wrists.

Clothing for food use must be made with clear fabric and must be always cleaned and hygienized to avoid diseases, intoxications or physical, chemical, biological contamination.
