Eco-Friendly Medical Scrubs
Do you work in the health field and have to wear scrubs daily? Years ago, I wrote a blog post about an eco-friendly scrubs brand, and it is still a very popular post. So, Why not look further into more sustainable medical scrubs since it seems to be something people want? I did some research and came back with these 4, which is a great start. Not only are these fabrics more breathable, but they are also kinder to the planet.
Let me know in the comments if you have happened to find another sustainable medical scrubs brand - I’d love to be able to add them to this list!
p.s. even though these are all photos of women, they also have scrubs for men!
Lago
Price | $32-46
Lago offers functional, stylish, comfortable scrubs that are better for the planet.
Their fabrics are made from recycled plastic bottles and have a 4-way stretch and performance capabilities.
All scrubs are responsibly made, and the packaging is even eco-friendly!
They also believe in diversity, with their team being made up of 50% women and 60% people of color.
Barco One
Price | $17-45
This brand seems to be a favorite amongst health professionals. Barco One uses recycled polyester in their scrubs, a great way to reduce our virgin poly threads.
Just wash with a guppy bag to prevent micro plastics from entering the waterways.
Besides their fashion-forward tops and vests, Barco One offers a large assortment of scrub pants, like 7-pocket options that allow you to easily store your instruments & track pants, blending comfort with a professional appearance.
Mediclo

I love that this brand uses Tencel for its fabric! It is one of my favorite textiles and is so comfortable to wear. I can imagine these being one of the best medical scrubs on the market with such a great fiber.
Not only do they use eco-friendly materials, but they produce ethically with fair wages and safe working conditions.
They also offer direct-to-consumer so that you can purchase a quality product at a more affordable price.
Sketchers
Price | $15-37
Well, I was utterly unaware that Sketchers made medical scrubs, & with a conscious fabric at that!
They use recycled polyester and provide trendy, sporty scrubs for nurses and other medical professionals who are constantly on the go.
The scrubs are made with elastic waistbands, moisture-wicking fabric, pockets, cargo pockets, side slits, snap fronts, & contrast binding to ensure a great all-day fit.
