Why do dental teams standardize on one scrub brand?

Re-ordering stops being a project. When the clinic is on one brand and one spec, a new hire is a single email rather than a fresh round of sizing, colour matching and approvals. KOA keeps your size sheet on file so the second order looks like the first. Colour can do work. Coding by role — hygienists in one colour, assistants in another, front desk in a third — tells a patient who they are speaking to before anyone introduces themselves. Up to three stocked colours per team keeps that readable without becoming a stock problem. Embroidery makes it the clinic’s uniform. A clinic logo, staff name or credentials at $20 per garment, done locally, with no minimum on the embroidery itself.

Which scrub colours work for a full dental team?

Navy, Black and Caribbean Blue carry the deepest stock and are the safest choices for a full team in every size. Grey, Merlot, Blush Pink and Sage work well for smaller teams. Availability is confirmed against your size sheet before any date is promised.

Team pricing starts at 5 sets and improves again at 10; the rate is confirmed on the quote alongside the size sheet. Individual pieces are $47 for a One Pocket Top and $58 for a High Rise Jogger, with men’s scrubs on the same fabric and fit logic. There is no minimum to order from KOA at all — team pricing is a standing service for clinics, not a promotion.

Request a quote with your team size and the colours you are considering. You get a size sheet and team pricing back within one business day.

Scrubs for Canadian Veterinary Clinics: Team Uniforms That Handle the Job

KOA Health Heroes outfits veterinary clinic teams across Canada—from small rural practices to large urban animal hospitals. Our scrubs are built for veterinary environments: durable fabrics that handle frequent washing, stain resistance, and embroidery options so your team looks unified and professional.

Why Do Veterinary Teams Standardize on One Scrub Brand?

When your entire clinic wears the same scrubs, you gain more than matching uniforms. You get consistency in sizing, colour-coding by role (if desired), and durability you can count on. Veterinary work is tough on fabric—blood, dirt, disinfectants, repeated handling. A uniform that fails after 10 washes costs you more in the long run than one built to last.

Standardizing also means reorders are simple. Keep your team's sizes on file and reorder with one email. No hunting for matching colours or second-guessing fits. For growing clinics, this matters.

Colours That Work for Veterinary Teams

Veterinary clinics often favour deeper, richer colours that hide stains and wear. KOA's deep-stock colours—Navy, Black, and Caribbean Blue—are the most popular choices for veterinary teams. These colours hold up to repeated washing and disinfectant exposure while keeping your team looking sharp through an intensive day.

Navy and Black are reliable workhorses. Caribbean Blue adds visual interest for clinics that want a signature colour. All three colours are always in stock and available for team orders.

Team Pricing & How to Start

Team ordering with KOA starts at 5 sets (a top and joggers per person) with no upper minimum. Whether you're outfitting 5 team members or 50, you get straightforward team pricing.

Clinic logo embroidery is available at $20 per garment—a quick way to add branding and professionalism without custom manufacturing delays.

Every order ships from Calgary within 3–5 business days. Shipping is complimentary on orders over $105 CAD (Canada and US). We offer complimentary 30-day returns on unworn items with tags intact (embroidered items are excluded from returns).

Ready to outfit your clinic? Visit our clinic team ordering page to start the conversation about your team's needs—sizes, colours, embroidery, and timing. If you've already ordered, we keep your team's sizes on file for fast reorders.

Fabric & Durability

KOA scrubs are made from a high-performance blend: 72% polyester, 21% rayon, and 7% spandex. This blend gives you durability, comfort, and stretch where it matters—without premium price tags. The polyester resists stains and wear; the rayon adds breathability; the spandex keeps you moving.

All fabrics are machine washable and built to survive the chemical exposure of typical veterinary practice.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many sets do I need to order at once?

Team orders start at 5 sets (one top + one joggers per person). There's no upper minimum—order for your entire clinic at once or grow over time. We keep sizing on file so reorders are straightforward.

Can we embroider our clinic name or logo on KOA scrubs?

Yes—embroidery is available at $20 per garment. We can embroider clinic names, logos, or role titles (e.g., "Veterinarian", "Tech", "Assistant") to add professionalism and unity to your team.

Do KOA scrubs handle blood and disinfectant exposure?

KOA scrubs are built for high-turnover veterinary environments. The 72% polyester/21% rayon/7% spandex blend resists staining and stands up to repeated washing with disinfectants and bleach. Darker colours like Navy and Black especially hide wear and staining over time.

Do you ship to US veterinary clinics?

Yes—KOA ships to veterinary clinics across Canada and the United States. Complimentary shipping applies to orders over $105 CAD. Delivery is 3–5 business days from Calgary.

What if my team grows or sizes change?

We keep detailed size records for every team. If your clinic adds members or existing team members need size adjustments, just let us know. We'll handle the reorder with no need to re-measure.
