Surgery doesn’t give you second chances. One contaminated gown, one poorly sterilized drape, and you’re looking at complications that could have been prevented. We’ve been in this business for over 100 years, and trust us, we’ve seen what happens when hospitals try to save money on surgical linens.
Some places choose disposables because they think it’s safer while others pick any laundry service that offers cheap rates. Look, we get it; budgets are tight, but both approaches create headaches you don’t need.
Disposables fill up landfills faster than a teenager goes through data, and they cost way more than people realize. Generic laundry services? They can’t tell the difference between washing hotel sheets and processing OR linens that carry serious contamination.
That’s exactly why our great-grandfather started Unitex back in 1920. Someone needed to get surgical linen service right, and apparently, that someone was us!
The Right Linens Keep Surgery on Track
Reusable surgical linens are not a luxury; they are simply the smarter choice. Hospitals, outpatient centers, and surgical teams that make the switch see the difference almost immediately.
Our surgical linen programs include gowns, towels, sheets, wrappers, and protective apparel. Every item meets TRSA Hygienically Clean Healthcare standards, ensuring that your textiles are processed using best management practices and verified through regular third-party inspections and microbial testing.
Our products are fluid-resistant and built for comfort. This means that your team can move, bend, and work without fighting stiff materials or ill-fitting garments. If you’re in the industry, you know that better comfort leads to better focus, and better focus leads to smoother procedures. It is that simple.
In a Medical Setting, Consistency Makes All the Difference
Surgical teams work best when they can trust their environment. That includes trusting that their linen arrives on time, meets the highest cleaning standards, and comes ready for immediate use. Missing gowns or poor-quality supplies throw schedules off faster than anything else.
At Unitex, we take this seriously. We built dedicated plants explicitly designed for different healthcare clients. We never mix surgical linens with general laundry. We handle everything separately because that is the only way to do it right.
Our team inspects every item more than once. If something does not meet our standards, it never leaves our facility. We also offer non-sterile surgical pack programs, delivered directly to your door, so you have what you need when needed. We stay on schedule, so you can too.
Reusable Linens Save You More Than Money
Reusable surgical linens help control costs. They last longer, hold up better, and reduce waste, meaning fewer orders and headaches.
But the real value goes deeper. Our reusable linen helps you stay compliant with safety standards, protect your team and your patients, reduce supply shortages, and keep things running smoothly.
We also help you manage your linen inventory more effectively. We track your items, help you avoid over-ordering, and ensure nothing gets wasted or lost. This level of control supports your budget without forcing you to compromise on safety or quality.
Safety Should Come First, Always
Every product we provide supports your infection control efforts. We process our reusable surgical linens in state-of-the-art facilities designed just for healthcare. Our systems separate soiled items from clean ones. We control airflow. We follow strict guidelines every step of the way.
We know that surgical linens touch your most vulnerable patients. They protect your staff. That responsibility matters to us. We never take shortcuts because lives depend on what we do.
When you choose reusable linens, you help create a safer environment. Our standards already meet or exceed regulators’ requirements, making inspections and compliance checks easier.
What Makes Unitex Different from Other Surgical Linen Programs and Providers?
Plenty of linen companies exist, but there is only one Unitex! We have been serving the healthcare community for more than a century. We are still family-owned and hands-on, and every client deserves personal attention.
Every plant we operate, every process we’ve developed, every person on our team wakes up thinking about one thing: how to serve the industry better. We’ve never been the company that cuts corners or makes promises we can’t keep.
When we tell you something will happen, it happens. Period.
Our clients have been with us for decades because we actually pick up the phone when they call. We learn their names, understand their challenges, and when something goes sideways (because let’s face it, things do go sideways sometimes), we roll up our sleeves and fix it.
Four generations of our family have built this business on that simple idea. Why would we mess with what works?
Let’s Move Forward Together!
Surgical teams have enough on their plates without worrying about whether clean linens will show up on time. That’s where we come in. Our reusable surgical linen programs do the heavy lifting, saving you time and money while keeping patients safe and waste bins empty.
