About Morrison Water Services
Supporting the UK’s water infrastructure
Morrison Water Services (MWS) is a leading UK provider in the water and waste water infrastructure sector. They undertake any essential emergency repairs or replacements, respond to weather incidents and work to ensure the UKs water infrastructure is safe and fully functional.
After taking on a new contract in conjunction with Yorkshire Water (YW), MWS asked DCC to produce workwear and PPE for over 200 people involved in working on the contract.
MWS conduct critical and hazardous work, therefore they required technical workwear and PPE to ensure the safety of their employees. Flame retardant, Anti-static and High Visibility garments were among those requested
DCC started work on the order in May 2021, with the official order coming through in June 2021. The roll out of uniform was required to happen on 30th June. A short time frame for some, but here at DCC we operated quickly and effeciently to get the job done.

Our Solution
Delivering safety at lightning speed
Once the team completed all of the sourcing and embellishing of the workwear, the necessary products were manpacked into a Morrison Water Services and Yorkshire Water dual branded bag matching each individuals sizing and role requirements. There were 11 items per person, 200+ people, so over 2,200 items in total that were embellished and delivered for this contract.
Sharon Nethercot, DCC National Account Manager for M Group Services, attended the contract launch day at Wetherby Racecourse to lend a helping hand with the uniform roll out and to represent DCC. The event was a great success with everyone recieving their new uniforms.
To further support MWS, these garments have also been added to their workwear catalogue and stocked in the DCC warehouse to ensure quick delivery moving forward.
Sharon and her internal client care team will continue to support the M Group with all MWS queries and orders.
