At Happythreads, we understand the importance of providing hospital and nursing staff with the best attire to perform their duties efficiently and comfortably. When it comes to scrubs, there is one brand that stands out to us above the rest: Koi. Here’s why we believe that Koi scrubs are second to none.

Stringent Testing Process Ensures Unparalleled Quality

One of the key factors that sets Koi apart from other brands is their rigorous testing process for all fabrics. Before offering their seal of approval, they subject the fabric to 21 separate tests. These tests are conducted by third-party testing agencies, institutes, and even in their own factories. By conducting these comprehensive tests, Koi ensures that the fabric meets their exacting standards and passes all quality checks.

Uncompromising Fabric Construction for Long-lasting Durability

The fabric construction is another critical aspect of any scrubs garment, and Koi takes it seriously. They test each fabric for quality, consistency, and weight. If the fabric doesn’t meet their high standards, it’s rejected. Besides this, Koi also evaluates the pH level of the fabric since extreme pH levels can cause skin irritation or unexpected colour changes in the fabric. Through their rigorous testing, they guarantee that every material is durable and comfortable on the skin — even in the most demanding environments.

Fade-resistant and Durable — Garments Built to Last

To further ensure the durability and longevity of their scrubs, they test fabric for colorfastness in actual home conditions. They wash garments 25 times in real-world conditions to evaluate colour staining, fading, and overall durability. Additionally, Koi conducts various colourfast tests to study how their fabric responds to sunlight, perspiration, and other common conditions.

Strength and Resilience — Ready for the Demands of Healthcare

Strength and resilience are crucial for scrubs to be able to endure the challenges of a healthcare environment. At Koi, they conduct a range of strength tests, including tensile, tearing, and seam strength evaluations. This process ensures that the scrubs can overcome and withstand the challenges of a healthcare professional’s daily tasks.

Comfort and Flexibility — Enhancing the Work Experience

They also pay special attention to other factors that contribute to the superiority of their scrubs. Koi evaluates wrinkle recovery to ensure their fabric maintains its appearance even after being wrinkled. Apart from this, they assess the fabric’s resistance to snagging, pilling, and abrasion, since these are common occurrences in a medical setting.

Moisture-wicking and Stretchy — A Focus on Healthcare Professional Comfort

More than functionality, comfort is paramount for healthcare professionals who spend long hours in their scrubs. Koi addresses this by testing the fabric’s wicking capabilities, ensuring that their poly and poly/Spandex fabrics effectively trap and divert moisture from the body. For stretch fabric, Koi evaluates the degree of stretch and how well the fabric recovers after tension and extension, guaranteeing ease of movement for all healthcare professionals.

Attention to Detail — Combining Functionality With Fashion

While testing and quality control play a significant role, Koi’s commitment to styling, fit, and design details also distinguishes their scrubs from the rest. Known for their attention to detail, Koi creates uniforms that are not only practical but also fashionable. They want to ensure that healthcare professionals can express their personality and feel confident while providing care to patients.
