Children's Plasticized Aprons

The best quality laminated aprons, such as those offered by RAG Tailors, are made from fabric with a laminated coating or food-grade PVC. These materials offer excellent waterproofing, effectively protecting against liquids, paints and dirt, while maintaining the necessary flexibility for children’s comfort. Look for aprons with a durable but flexible laminated layer, without strong odors, and preferably with certifications that guarantee the absence of harmful substances, especially important for children’s items.

The main difference lies in their waterproofness and ease of cleaning. Laminated aprons are waterproof, ideal for activities involving liquids, paints or modeling clay, and can be cleaned with a simple damp cloth. Aprons made of regular fabric are more breathable and comfortable for prolonged use, but offer less protection against stains and absorb liquids. For intense artistic or culinary activities, laminated aprons are clearly superior in protecting clothing, while fabric aprons are more suitable for dry activities or as a decorative element.

To choose the ideal size of plastic apron for children, consider the child's age and height. At RAG Tailors, we offer children's aprons in sizes suitable for different age groups: for children aged 2-4, look for shorter aprons with adequate width (approximately 40-45cm wide by 50cm long); for children aged 5-8, opt for medium-sized aprons (approximately 50cm x 60cm); and for older children, aged 9-12, larger aprons (approximately 55cm x 70cm) are more appropriate. Always check the neck and waist adjustments to ensure comfort and safety.

Cleaning children's laminated aprons is simple and practical. For light dirt, simply wipe with a damp cloth and mild detergent. For deeper cleaning, you can wash by hand in warm (never hot) water with neutral soap. Some models of laminated aprons, such as those from RAG Tailors, are machine washable on a delicate cycle and at a low temperature. Always avoid abrasive products, bleach or solvents. To preserve, hang the apron or store it stretched out, avoiding folds that could crack the laminated material. Never expose it to direct heat sources or sunlight for prolonged periods.

Plastic aprons for children are extremely versatile. They are ideal for artistic activities such as painting, collage and modelling, where they protect against paints, glues and other potentially staining materials. In the kitchen, they are perfect for young chefs’ first culinary experiences, offering protection against splashes and ingredients. In nurseries and schools, these aprons are essential for creative workshops and sensory activities. They are also excellent for outdoor play with water or mud. The waterproofness of RAG Tailors plastic aprons ensures that these formative experiences can take place without worrying about clothing.

Yes, customizing children's laminated aprons is an excellent option, especially for schools and nurseries. RAG Tailors offers several customization methods, including embroidery, printing and screen printing that can withstand daily use and washing. For custom orders, simply send an email with the references and images you want to request a quote. The process is simple and the end result is unique aprons that can include the child's name, institution logos or themed designs. The delivery time for custom orders varies between 10 and 15 working days, ensuring a quality, custom-made product.

A quality children's plastic apron should combine effective protection and comfort. Look for models with waterproof but flexible material, reinforced seams for greater durability and smooth finishes without sharp edges. Adjustment systems are crucial: choose aprons with Velcro fastenings or snaps that are easy for children to handle themselves, promoting independence. Ideally, they should include large front pockets to store utensils or materials. At RAG Tailors, we ensure that our children's aprons are lightweight so as not to weigh down little ones, with dimensions proportionate to different ages and attractive designs that encourage their use.
