A uniform partner that understands what schools need

From maintaining quality and managing budgets to helping families order the right items, school uniform comes with practical challenges. Trutex helps schools address them with dependable schoolwear, simpler ordering and dedicated support.

    A straightforward ordering process helps schools and families understand what to expect, with fulfilment arrangements designed to support a better ordering experience.

    Reinforced seams and stain-resistant, easy-care fabrics help garments maintain their appearance through the demands of everyday school life.

    A dedicated online shop for your school gives families a clear view of approved uniform items, helping them find and order what their children need.

  • Less time spent managing suppliers

    One dedicated schools team supports you throughout the process, from product selection and samples to ongoing orders and replenishment.

  • Better control over uniform procurement

    A consistent uniform range helps schools assess quality, make informed purchasing decisions and give families a clearer, more consistent uniform offer.

Questions schools ask us

Can you match or refresh our current uniform?

Yes. We can reproduce your existing uniform or help you refresh it, including your crest, colours and styles.

Can we see samples before we decide?

Yes. We make samples so your leadership team can judge the quality first-hand and sign off before anything goes into production.

Can you take over from our current supplier?

Yes. We work with schools reviewing their supplier, running tenders or comparing quotes, with samples so you can judge quality first-hand.

Do you work with school groups?

Yes, with single schools and multi-campus groups alike. Tell us about your campuses and we will suggest the right approach.

Which countries do you supply?

We work with schools across Europe, with distribution from within the EU. If your school is outside the EU, for example in Switzerland, tell us where you are and we will confirm how we would supply you.

Is there a minimum order?

It depends on your range and pupil numbers. We will set out the options clearly in your consultation.

How far ahead should we start?

Tell us when you would like to launch and we will plan back from that date, leaving time for design, samples and production.

What is in the brochures?

The full 2026 Schoolwear Collection, our sustainability commitments, and the AKOA Sportswear Collection for PE and games kit, with its colour, badging and sizing options.
