Discover Workwear for elderly care!
Everyday work in elderly care is challenging and demanding. That's why you need workwear that keeps up effortlessly with every task, offers maximum comfort and still looks absolutely professional. The elderly care collection from Karlowsky was specially developed for the high demands of everyday care work. It combines functionality, durability and a modern design, so you can focus entirely on what matters most: the well-being of the people in your care.
In care professions, employees carry a great deal of responsibility, which is why choosing the right elderly care workwear plays a central role. Karlowsky's professional service clothing offers a comprehensive range precisely tailored to the needs of elderly care staff. In every task, elderly care workwear protects against everyday hazards and, thanks to robust materials, ensures easy washing at high temperatures.
Karlowsky's product range for elderly care
Karlowsky's range offers the right textile solution for every task in everyday care work. The heart of the collection is formed by the versatile tunics and pull-on tunics. While pull-on tunics impress especially with quick, fuss-free wearing without distracting buttons, styles with press studs offer flexible handling and often a modern, tailored cut for women. All styles share well-thought-out, large side pockets that provide plenty of room for pagers, pens and disinfectant.
To match, the trousers provide the comfort needed for long shifts. Anyone on their feet all day benefits from trousers with an elastic waistband, which fit perfectly with every movement and don't pinch when bending or lifting. Thanks to robust fabrics, they easily withstand the constant friction of everyday work and are available in various fits, from straight cuts to modern slim-fit variants.
For facilities that value a particularly approachable and familiar appearance, polo shirts and T-shirts offer a sporty alternative to the classic tunic. Karlowsky's high-quality cotton blends keep their shape and colour even at high wash temperatures, making them ideal for giving different residential areas a fresh, colour-coded structure.
The range is rounded off with functional, comfortable shoes specially developed for the extreme walking demands of everyday care work. Since elderly care staff are on their feet for many hours at a stretch, ergonomic wearing comfort takes centre stage here. Karlowsky's shoes offer optimal cushioning that noticeably relieves the joints and back. Fitted with slip-resistant soles, they also provide secure footing on damp and freshly mopped floors. In addition, the materials are especially easy-care, liquid-repellent and can be cleaned and disinfected effortlessly, meeting the strict hygiene requirements of elderly care at all times. Elastic inserts guarantee a perfect fit and quick putting on and taking off.
The employer's responsibility: safety and requirements for care staff
When procuring new workwear, employers in elderly care face a major task. The chosen elderly care workwear must not only meet the wishes of care staff but also fulfil statutory requirements. In many cases, classic service clothing overlaps with the requirements for protective clothing, to protect care staff from infections or biological hazards during certain tasks. Karlowsky combines this essential protection with a modern design. This gives employees in care facilities the confidence they need for their daily work with people.
Easy care and hygiene: tips for washing Karlowsky elderly care workwear
In elderly care and the medical field, hygiene comes first. Because the clothing of elderly care staff comes into daily contact with germs, disinfectants and stains, proper care and washing of the textiles is crucial for safety and durability.
High wash temperatures for maximum hygiene
Most Karlowsky tunics, trousers and shirts for the care sector are specially developed for the extreme demands of industrial washing and frequent washing. Many styles can easily be machine washed at 60 degrees or even 95 degrees (boil-proof). This ensures that bacteria, viruses and stubborn dirt are reliably removed.
Colourfastness and shape stability
A major advantage of the high-quality material blends (often a well-thought-out mix of cotton and polyester) is their high colourfastness. Even after countless wash cycles at high temperatures, coloured tunics and shirts retain their vibrancy and don't shrink. This ensures that the whole team maintains a well-groomed, professional appearance in the long term.
Tips for everyday practice in care facilities:
- Sort by type: Always wash white service clothing separately from coloured items to avoid a grey tinge.
- Check pockets: Empty all pockets before washing - pens or disinfectant bottles can cause stains or damage the material.
- Gentle drying: Many of our products are tumble-dryer safe. A short spell in the tumble dryer also reduces creasing and saves valuable time when ironing.
- Easy-care accessories: Additional items such as aprons or overlays can also be cleaned quickly and easily, so they are ready for use again for the next shift in no time.
