In our online shop, you’ll find scrubs in every style and colour.
Why Scrubs Are an Indispensable Part of Medical Work
In modern nursing and healthcare, women’s scrubs are far more than just clothing – they are an essential part of daily workwear. Their importance stems from a combination of functionality, hygiene, comfort, and a professional appearance.
1. Hygiene First
In medical and nursing roles, hygiene is the top priority. Scrubs are typically made from easy-care, durable fabrics that can withstand high washing temperatures. This ensures that germs and bacteria can be effectively removed. This protects not only patients but also healthcare workers themselves.
2. Functionality in Daily Work
Scrubs are designed specifically for the needs of healthcare and nursing. Practical features such as patch pockets provide space for important work tools like pens, gloves, or medical accessories. The loose fit offers freedom of movement – a crucial factor in jobs that involve long periods of standing, walking, and lifting.
3. Comfort and Fit
Especially during long shifts, comfortable clothing is a must. Women’s scrubs are often tailored to provide a pleasant fit without restricting movement. Skin-friendly fabrics ensure they remain comfortable to wear, even during physically demanding work.
4. A Unified and Professional Look
Scrubs contribute to a consistent, professional appearance. This creates trust among patients and communicates competence and reliability. They also make it easy to visually identify teams and recognise their department or ward – often aided by different colours or embroidery.
5. A Symbol of Responsibility and Care
Finally, scrubs are a symbol of the dedicated, caring work carried out in health and nursing. They signal: you are being looked after by someone who works with commitment and professionalism.
V-Neck and More: Modern Designs for Everyday Care
Women’s scrubs must be not only functional but also visually appealing and ergonomically designed. Karlowsky models feature modern, tailored cuts that combine freedom of movement with a polished appearance. Details such as V-necks, collars, side slits, or press studs as fastenings provide high wearing comfort and make long shifts easier.
Practical patch pockets – sometimes as internal compartments or with key loops – provide space for essential tools and support efficient workflows. Our round-neck scrubs are a real eye-catcher. The women’s scrubs are available in numerous sizes, from XS to plus sizes up to 3XL.
Scrub Materials with Responsibility
Karlowsky scrubs are made predominantly with sustainable fabrics. Many models use a long-lasting blend of 65% recycled polyester and 35% cotton. This mix is not only durable and easy-care but also washable at high temperatures of up to 95°C – ideal for the hygiene requirements in healthcare and nursing. At the same time, the use of recycled fibres helps reduce resource consumption and actively contributes to environmental protection.
Certified Sustainability of Our Women’s Scrubs
Karlowsky’s commitment to sustainability is backed by various certifications, including the Global Recycled Standard (GRS), the Green Button, and STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®. These labels stand for transparent, eco-friendly, and socially fair production processes – an important factor for institutions that value sustainability and ethical standards.
Colour Variety with Meaning
The colour range of our women’s scrubs extends from classic white to calming blues and greens, and even vibrant pink, purple, or red. Colours play an important role in the work environment – they can build trust, convey competence, or express empathy. Organisations can use colour to distinguish teams visually or create recognisable combinations. Thanks to their simplicity, our scrubs are also very easy to personalise, making them ideal for any professional setting.
Wide Range of Uses in Healthcare and Nursing
Karlowsky women’s scrubs are used in numerous professions where hygiene, functionality, and a professional appearance are essential. They are common in both residential and ambulatory care, such as nursing homes, home healthcare, and day care facilities. In hospitals, scrubs are standard attire on wards, in emergency rooms, and in specialist areas such as pre-op or laboratories.
In medical practices – from general medicine to gynaecology and paediatrics – scrubs offer a uniform, trustworthy appearance and practical benefits in a busy practice. They are also popular in dental clinics, among therapists (e.g., occupational or physiotherapy), and in medical care centres.
In addition, scrubs are used in veterinary practices, pharmacies, and by medical pedicurists and beauticians – anywhere that hygiene, client interaction, and freedom of movement go hand in hand.
Functionality as the Top Priority in Workwear
There’s a reason Karlowsky is one of the top brands for medical workwear. Our women’s scrubs offer optimal fit and thus full freedom of movement thanks to thoughtful design. Different models, such as the Short-Sleeve Women’s Pull-On Scrub Top Essential, are slightly more tailored than, for example, the Sara Scrub Top. However, all scrubs allow for quick dressing and undressing, which is crucial when every second counts in the event of contamination.
The scrubs have no zips and are designed for easy slip-on wear. They are also ideal for long days, being both breathable and comfortable.
