Identification
Visible from the tower, the deck, and the gate
A duty kit fails if a guest cannot tell who is on duty or which guard covers which water. Identification is designed into the garment, not added as a badge at the end.
Names sit on the upper back at a size read from 15 metres. Station numbers sit on the chest and cap so a radio call can name a post instead of a person. Rank bands use a single high contrast colour per level, which keeps a rotation readable at a glance during a shift change.
- Roster names and station numbers
- Rank colour coding per level
- Reflective trim for dusk patrol
- UPF 50+ on sun exposed pieces
- Chlorine and salt water colour hold
- Quick dry between rotations

Questions
Lifeguard apparel questions
The answers facility buyers ask for before a purchase order is raised.
What is the minimum order for lifeguard apparel?
The minimum is 12 pieces per design. You can split those 12 across sizes, so a small pool with 4 guards can order 2 pieces each in three sizes. Larger facility programmes are quoted per kit after a size run is confirmed.
Do you print guard names and station numbers?
Yes. Roster names, station numbers, rank bands, and site names are printed at no extra design charge. Front and back placement is standard on rash guards, tanks, and polos, and name blocks are set at a legible size from the deck and from a distance.
Which fabric suits a resort pool compared with a beach operation?
Resort and hotel pools usually run a 190gsm polyester spandex rash guard because it holds colour through daily chlorine. Beach and surf operations do better with a 150gsm quick dry boardshort built for sand and salt water. Both are quoted in the same order if a facility runs pool and beach stations.
Is your lifeguard apparel sun protective?
Long sleeve rash guards and UV arm sleeves are built on UPF 50+ rated polyester spandex. Polos and tanks are rated lower because they are woven or pique, so we quote those separately when sun exposure is the main concern.
How long does production take?
Standard turnaround is 10 to 14 business days after you approve the mockup. Rush production is available for an extra fee and is confirmed against your season opening date before we accept the order.
Can you match our brand or property colours?
Yes. Send Pantone codes, hex values, or a printed swatch and we match to Delta E below 2.0 across the run. Safety orange, rescue red, and marine navy are kept as dedicated ink channels so they stay consistent between reorders.
Do you supply whistles, lanyards, and accessories?
Yes. Breakaway lanyards, hi viz whistle cords, printed whistle plates, caps, and UV arm sleeves are quoted alongside the garments so a facility can issue a complete duty kit from one supplier and one delivery.
Do you issue official receipts and BIR 2307?
Yes. We are a PhilGEPS Platinum registered supplier and issue official invoices and BIR 2307 for corporate accounts. Government, LGU, and school buyers can order against a purchase order or a resolution to award.
Can we reorder the same design next season?
Yes. Designs are archived with their colour channels and size run, so a reorder matches the previous batch even when the guard roster changes. We note the dye lot on every reorder so a top up reads as the same kit on the deck.
Do you deliver to island and provincial resorts?
Yes. Orders ship nationwide through LBC, JRS, DHL, and FedEx, including island destinations and provincial resorts. Cartons can be serialized per site when one operator runs several properties.
Quote
Request kit pricing for your roster
Send the guard headcount, the station list, and your season opening date. We reply with a kit breakdown, a size run, and a lead time for each site.
Ready to issue a proper duty kit?
We build the kit around the stations you staff, the number of guards on shift, and the season you open. Mockups, colour matching, and size runs come before the purchase order, not after it. Testing one piece first? Buy a single duty rash guard.
