Waterproof & Water-Resistant Aprons
PU/PVC-coated, welded seams. For wet, messy, chemical work.
For dishwashing stations, fishmongers, food processing, labs and cleaning crews, an apron has to keep water and chemicals off the wearer. We build coated waterproof and water-resistant aprons with sealed or welded seams.

How we make this style.
Fully waterproof versions use PU- or PVC-coated polyester with high-frequency welded seams so water can't wick through stitch holes; water-resistant versions use coated cotton or DWR-treated fabric for lighter splash protection. Wipe-clean, quick-drying, with adjustable buckle necks and the option of a chest pocket sealed against ingress. Chemical-resistant grades available for lab and processing use.

Waterproof aprons — common questions.
Fully waterproof or water-resistant — what's the difference?
Fully waterproof aprons use a PU/PVC coating with welded seams so no water passes through, suited to dishwashing and fishmongers. Water-resistant (DWR or waxed) sheds splashes but isn't sealed — lighter and more breathable.
Are the seams sealed?
On fully waterproof aprons we use high-frequency welded seams so water can't wick through needle holes. Tell us the application and we spec the right seam construction.
Do you offer chemical-resistant aprons?
Yes — a chemical-resistant coated grade is available for laboratory, cleaning and food-processing use. Share the chemicals involved and we recommend the coating.
