Today, most healthcare professionals wear medical uniforms and scrubs with various features, either to comply with existing legal regulations, to maintain institutional image, or according to personal preferences. However, in some situations, choosing the right uniform is even more important than usual.

Istanbul Conditions

As is well known, Istanbul, like other cities in Türkiye, experiences all four seasons. However, due to the influence of the surrounding seas, it is quite humid in the summers. While this humidity is a common occurrence in the daily lives of people living in Istanbul, it can be quite tiring for individuals in the workplace. Even in the flow of daily life, some people sweat excessively, forcing them to take two or more showers a day, depending on their circumstances. This factor affects healthcare workers, as it does every profession.

Choosing a uniform suitable for Istanbul's humid climate.

As mentioned above, healthcare workers, like some other professionals, are affected by Istanbul's humid climate. While it's impossible to completely avoid the humidity, which can reach very high levels, especially during the summer months, its disadvantages can be mitigated through appropriate clothing choices.

As is known, healthcare professionals are required to wear doctor's uniforms and nurse's uniforms, according to regulations. But how should uniforms be chosen in weather conditions where humidity is almost suffocating and causes excessive sweating?

Polyviscose Fabric Scrubs

Although the term polyviscose might initially sound a bit artificial and unhealthy, it can actually be healthier than other fabrics due to the correct proportions of its fiber composition.

Due to factors such as body temperature regulation, natural perspiration, and the ideal distribution of sweat-derived fluid across the fabric resulting in faster drying, polyviscose uniforms can actually be more beneficial from a health perspective. Uniforms produced with polyviscose fiber blends offer products that can satisfy healthcare workers even in challenging conditions like those in Istanbul.
