Henbury HB842 Unisex Sustainable ¼-Zip Sweatshirt

The Henbury HB842 Unisex Sustainable ¼-Zip Sweatshirt combines a smart corporate appearance with a more considered approach to fabric selection, making it an excellent choice for businesses looking for comfortable, professional and sustainable branded workwear.

Made from 60% regenerated cotton and 40% recycled polyester, the HB842 uses a substantial 300gsm brushed-back fleece that provides warmth and comfort while retaining a clean, contemporary appearance.

The quarter-zip design gives the sweatshirt a more polished appearance than a traditional crew neck, making it particularly suitable for office teams, corporate uniforms, customer-facing staff, hospitality businesses and professional workwear.

Practical details include a metal quarter zip, ribbed cuffs and hem, set-in sleeves, side panel detailing and two zipped in-seam pockets. The pockets are particularly useful for keeping keys, phones or other small essentials secure during the working day.

The HB842 is also designed with professional branding in mind. Its Henbury cut-out label allows easy rebranding, making it well suited to companies that want their own identity to take centre stage rather than a prominent garment-brand label.

For businesses looking for a garment that sits somewhere between a traditional sweatshirt and a smart corporate layer, the HB842 is a particularly versatile option.

Why Choose the HB842?

Regenerated & Recycled Fabric

The HB842 uses a blend of 60% regenerated cotton and 40% recycled polyester.

This makes it an attractive option for businesses that want to introduce more sustainable materials into their staff uniforms without moving away from a practical, professional sweatshirt.

Substantial 300gsm Fabric

At 300gsm, the HB842 has a substantial feel that makes it well suited to cooler working environments and outdoor use during transitional seasons.

The brushed-back fleece construction adds warmth and softness against the wearer.

Smart Quarter-Zip Styling

The quarter-zip design gives the HB842 a more refined appearance than a standard sweatshirt.

It can be worn zipped up for a cleaner professional look or opened slightly for a more relaxed appearance.

That makes it particularly useful for businesses where employees need to look professional without wearing formal corporate clothing.

Two Zipped Side Pockets

The two side pockets are zipped, providing useful secure storage for small everyday essentials such as keys, cards or a mobile phone.

Comfortable Brushed-Back Fleece

The brushed-back fleece construction provides a soft, comfortable inner surface and additional warmth, making the HB842 suitable for extended everyday wear.

Unisex Design

The HB842 is designed as a regular-fit unisex garment, making it an uncomplicated choice for businesses wanting a consistent sweatshirt style across their workforce.

Easy Rebranding

Henbury's cut-out label makes the HB842 suitable for own-brand corporate uniforms and promotional workwear.

This is particularly useful when you want the garment to appear as part of your company's own uniform rather than as a branded fashion garment.

Excellent for Embroidery

The smooth, structured appearance of the HB842 makes it particularly suitable for professional embroidered company logos.

For most corporate uniforms, I'd favour a clean left-chest embroidery, potentially combined with a larger back logo where appropriate.
