Every healthcare worker knows the sinking feeling: opening your locker to find yesterday’s “clean” scrubs still damp, mysteriously stained, or missing entirely. It’s a gamble nobody should have to take before caring for patients.
Your team deserves better than crossing their fingers and hoping their uniforms show up. You know better than most that they deserve to walk into work confident, comfortable, and ready, not stressed about whether they’ll look professional enough for the families counting on them.
However, this isn’t always the case while working for other providers. But, that’s where Unitex steps in. Our medical uniform rentals, lab coat service, and scrub laundry programs eliminate the guesswork completely. Fresh uniforms, perfect fit, delivered exactly when promised.
Because healthcare heroes shouldn’t have to worry about something as basic as having clean clothes to do their job. Your patients see the difference, your staff feels the difference.
Scrubs That Stay in Rotation, Not in the Back Room
The bottom line is that scrubs aren’t JUST clothing. In every hospital, outpatient center, or specialty clinic, they are part of the daily workflow. Staff expect them to be clean, comfortable, and available when their shift starts. If that doesn’t happen, it disrupts the routine. Nurses dig through backups, managers scramble to cover gaps, and new employees get handed whatever is left over. It creates friction where there should be none.
That is exactly what Unitex’s scrub rental program is designed to prevent. We manage scrub inventory for healthcare facilities throughout the Northeast, including busy locations in Albany, New Haven, and Worcester.
We keep a full range of sizes in rotation, sorted by department or facility as needed. Every item is tracked through its lifecycle. We pull scrubs that no longer meet quality standards and replace them without waiting for a request.
If a scrub set goes missing, we already know. If a certain size runs low at a specific location, we adjust delivery quantities. Our program is structured to adapt to real usage patterns. You will never need to ask twice, and your staff will never need to improvise.
Lab Coats That Match the Professionalism Behind Them
In every exam room, hospital corridor, and patient interaction, lab coats quietly represent experience, cleanliness, and credibility. If the coat is crisp, clean, and fits well, it supports your staff’s presence. If it is stained, wrinkled, or stretched out of shape, it becomes a distraction.
That is why our lab coat service runs with the same precision as our surgical linen program. Whether your team is based in Jersey City, Hartford, or Bridgeport, we deliver lab coats that match the professionalism of the people wearing them. We offer multiple fits and sizes, maintain departmental organization, and provide embroidery options when needed.
Our team inspects every coat on both the inbound and outbound side of the process. If a coat fails to meet our appearance standards, we pull it from circulation before it ever reaches your facility. We keep replacements ready and manage inventory flow across all your locations, so your staff always has what they need without worrying about supply.
A lab coat is more than a uniform, it is part of the trust your patients place in your team. We make sure that trust starts on the right foot, every single day!
Rental That Feels More Like Partnership
Some companies drop off scrubs in a bin and leave the rest to you. That’s not how we work. Our medical uniform rental programs are designed to feel like an extension of your internal team.
That means:
- Scheduled pickups and deliveries that align with your shift patterns
- Flexible inventory levels as your staff size changes
- Built-in tracking so nothing disappears unnoticed
- Replacements handled before anyone has to call or a scrub laundry service to ensure cleanliness
- A real person you can talk to when you need something adjusted
You don’t get handed a standard contract and a stack of forms. You get a conversation with a real person that understands your business. We ask what works for your departments, what hasn’t worked in the past, and how your facility runs from day to day.
Then, we build the program around that.
Built for Healthcare. Only Healthcare.
We handle only healthcare and senior care textiles. That’s right, no restaurant aprons, or no gym towels! Everything that moves through our system comes from hospitals, outpatient clinics, rehab centers, or assisted living facilities.
We built separate plants for different client types. But what does that mean? Ultimately, your scrubs stay in healthcare because our team knows how to handle them. They follow infection control procedures, use medical-grade equipment, and work inside facilities designed for clinical laundry, not general use.
That focus is why we can stay consistent, even when your schedule gets unpredictable. Our delivery teams know the ins and outs of your location. If your usage spikes during flu season or a new wing opens, we adjust ahead of time.
What We Handle, So You Don’t Have To
Let’s face it, linen is never just linen in healthcare. It touches patients, staff, labs, kitchens, and compliance checklists. If it lives in your building and needs to be cleaned, tracked, or replaced, chances are we already deal with it.
Here’s what that looks like:
- Patient care staples: Gowns, fitted and flat sheets, pillowcases, bath towels, blankets, adult diapers, and underpads. We keep them clean, soft, and rotated without fail.
- Clinical essentials and medical uniform rentals: Lab coats, scrubs, warm-up jackets, and cardiology capes. We stock the sizes, track the movement, and get them back to you ready for use.
- Surgical inventory: Gowns, towels, wrappers, fluid-resistant wear, and surgical sheets. If it hits the OR, we clean it with precision and return it on time.
- Resident laundry: Assisted living doesn’t mean “less busy.” We handle personal laundry for residents just like we do with hospital stock on schedule and with care.
- Floor and curtain care: Cubicle curtains, microfiber mops, wet and dust mops, rubber-backed mats, and entrance mats. If it hits the floor or hangs on a track, we’ve got a system for it.
- Food service linens: Chef coats, tablecloths, aprons, and kitchen uniforms. Just because it comes from the cafeteria doesn’t mean it should get cafeteria-level attention.
- Specialty and premium: Prestige linen for upscale environments, custom embroidery for branding, and corporate uniforms for public-facing staff. You focus on patients. We’ll make sure your team looks sharp doing it.
We don’t just keep track of it all. We’ve got the checklists, the tracking, and the plant infrastructure to prove it.
When Uniform Service Gets It Right, You Feel It
It’s easy to underestimate how much uniforms affect morale, patient perception, and workflow, until the system fails. At Unitex, we design programs that work under pressure, stay consistent, and adapt when your needs change.
We don’t do fluff. We don’t sell you a subscription and disappear. We stay in the loop, ask for feedback, and stay responsive to what’s happening in your facility right now.
If your staff is wasting time managing uniforms or if your current vendor feels out of step with your pace, let’s talk. No matter if you run a busy OR floor, a rehab facility with rotating staff, or a network of outpatient locations, we can build a rental program that fits.
