For the 13th consecutive year, customers of Cintas Corporation received Image of the Year (IOY) awards during a banquet held by the North American Association of Uniform Manufacturers and Distributors (NAUMD) in Las Vegas. Embassy Suites, Harrah's Cherokee and The New York Palace were presented with the prestigious award based on the fashion, function and creativity of their apparel programs.

"Cintas has a rich and strong history of creating and delivering innovative and inspiring fashion focused apparel designs," said Richard J. Lerman, president and CEO of the NAUMD.

Cintas Corporation has reported results for its third quarter ended February 29, 2012. Revenue for the third quarter was $1.01 billion, representing a 7.9 percent increase compared to last year's third quarter.

For most designers showing off their latest collections at New York's Fashion Week, functionality isn't a main consideration. Models have been known to strut the catwalk in toppling hats, teetering heels and floor-length gowns with enough ruffled trim to sweep an auditorium.

But not everyone's focused on runway looks 365 days a year. Hot Fashion Week commodities Prabal Gurung and Sophie Theallet are also creating uniforms for working people.

This April, Sephora's beauty advisers in North America will begin wearing uniforms designed by Gurung exclusively for the cosmetics retailer.

Cintas Corporation reported results for its second quarter ended November 30, 2011. Revenue was a record $1.019 billion, representing an 8.8 percent increase compared to last year's second quarter. Organic growth, which adjusts for the impact of acquisitions, was 7.0 percent.

Cintas Corporation in Union, N.J. recently became the first company in Union and the first Cintas facility located in federal OSHA jurisdiction to receive Safety & Health Achievement Recognition Program (SHARP) certification. The ceremony, plaque and flag presentation was held on Friday, November 4th at the facility located at 546 Green Lane in Union.

SHARP is OSHA's official recognition of employers that have eliminated OSHA hazards, established effective safety and health management programs and have maintained injury rates below national averages. Acceptance into the program begins at the company's request and took Cintas more than a year to complete.

From direct mail and branded stationary to banking incentives and employee uniforms, banks and other consumer financial organizations use almost every promotional product there is.

Superior Uniform Group, designer and manufacturer of uniforms, image apparel and accessories, announced it has been recognized by Apparel Magazine as a 2011 Top Innovator for the launch of the interactive apparel division, everyBODY media.
