First Wash
Give your new Workies a quick wash before their first shift for optimal fit and comfort.
Water Temperature
Always wash in cold water to preserve fibers and save energy.
Detergent Choice
Opt for mild, biodegradable detergents. Harsh chemicals can degrade natural hemp fibers.
Say No To Fabric Softener
Skip the fabric softener—hemp naturally softens over time.
Cycle Selection
Use the gentle or delicate cycle to maintain fabric integrity.
Low and Slow
Tumble dry on low, or hang to dry. Hemp prefers a gentle breeze to high heat, and so does the planet.
A Gentle Press
Prefer a crisp finish? Steam, or press inside out on medium heat. Hemp relaxes beautifully under a light touch.
Skip the Softener
Softeners coat natural fibers and dull their breathability. Your Workies grow softer on their own, wash after wash.
Act Fast
Treat stains while they are fresh. Rinse the fabric and blot, so the stain lifts out instead of sinking in.
Keep It Cold
Heat sets stains for good. Rinse blood and bodily fluids in cold water, then launder as usual.
Gentle Soap First
A mild soap, worked in with your fingertips lifts most everyday marks, from morning coffee to mascara.
Skip the Harsh Stuff
Bleach, enzyme sprays and aggressive stain removers can strip color and weaken natural fibers. When in doubt, go gentle.
Rotate Your Sets
Give each set a rest between shifts. A rotation of three or more means less wear on every piece and a longer life for all.
Store With Intention
Fold neatly or hang on a wide, shaped hanger. Natural fibers hold their form best when they are not crowded.
Mend, Don't Toss
A loose seam or small tear is not a farewell. Send it our way through the Workies Promise and we'll make it right.
A Second Life
When your Workies have given their all, send them home. We'll give the fibers new purpose and keep them out of the landfill.
The Impact of Your Care
By properly caring for your Workies scrubs, you’re not just maintaining high-performance workwear—you’re actively contributing to a more sustainable future in healthcare fashion. Every wash, every wear, and every repair is a step towards reducing waste and maximizing the life of your garments.
