Barco Uniforms, known for its commitment to always striving for a higher standard when it comes to innovating work apparel and creating greater customer value, hosted more than 20 advanced students from the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising (FIDM), giving them an insider's look at the business and an opportunity to meet some of the uniform industry's leading professionals. Based in Los Angeles, FIDM is a specialized, private college dedicated to educating students for the Fashion, Graphics, Interior Design, and Entertainment industries.

Barco Uniforms has been working with FIDM for five years, bringing students on-site quarterly for tours and Q&A sessions. Each visit includes in-depth exposure to the company's clients, divisions, brand management, design, production, sales organization and foundation. Students learn through open Q&A sessions with Barco Uniforms' expert design, product development, manufacturing, marketing and merchandising teams.

Driven by the imagination and passion of its team and honed by a commitment to excellence, Barco Uniforms' professional wear truly reflects the distinctive style, performance and quality of the individuals who wear it. Barco Uniforms pioneered the use of innovative fabric technology; its Advanced Research Clothing™ technology, or arcTechnology, is the science that ensures every garment works as hard as those who wear it. arcFlex™ is an exclusive fabric that provides freedom and fit. It stretches and moves with a person, leaving them looking and feeling their best. arcLux™ is an ultra-soft fabric that's all about luxury and touchability. arcDry™ wicks moisture away to keep professionals dry and comfortable. arcRelease™ is a premium, easy-care fabric with a soil-release finish that helps lift the most challenging stains.
