Comfort is key when providing quality patient care. I have been in the healthcare field for over 25 years and love wearing scrubs to work every day. We all agree it’s like going to work in your pajamas. But, only if they fit right. Barco One Scrubs have made my work day so much more comfortable and I’m helping the environment too!
We, as healthcare workers, were made to make a difference in the world. Now we can look good and feel great knowing that each Barco One garment is curated from fabric made out of 5-recycled plastic water bottles.
Did you know that Barco One has the sustainability element within its scrubs?
About Barco One:
Barco Uniforms, a recognized leader of design innovation in the premium healthcare apparel industry, announced that it has prevented 16.8 million plastic bottles from polluting the environment since incorporating plastic bottles into the cutting-edge fabric of the Barco One and Skechers by Barco scrub collections in 2016 and 2018, respectively.
Each Barco One garment incorporates 5 recycled plastic bottles in its fabric and the brand has recycled 7.5 million bottles, while each Skechers garment is made from 7 recycled plastic bottles, resulting in 9.3 million recycled bottles to date. In addition to the sustainability factor, each scrub collection features moisture-wicking fabric with 4-way stretch that is designed to easily release soil.
Sustainable Fabric:
“We are only starting to understand the devastating consequences of our global dependence on plastic and the pollution epidemic,” said David Murphy, president and CEO of Barco Uniforms. “Barco is proud to have taken concrete steps to keep plastic bottles out of landfills and the waste stream. Barco One and Skechers collections are the first lines of medical scrubs to incorporate a sustainable element into their fabric, and we are eager to see an increase in the number of bottles that we incorporate into our fabric technology in the years to come.”
To create the sustainable fabric, Barco relies on a RPET process. First, the bottles are cleaned and then shredded into pellets. From there, the pellets are crushed and melted, and the melted plastic is spun into thread which is woven with polyester.
Due to their antistatic properties which allow animal hair to release quickly and easily from the surface of the fabric, both of our Barco One and Barco One Wellness brands are perfect for professionals who work in the animal care industry or just have pets at home!

My Thoughts:
I love that Barco One delivers on 5-points of performance: 4-way stretch, Eco-friendly fabric, moisture-wicking, soil release and wrinkle resistance. That combination makes my dream scrubs a reality!
My Cargo Pants, in Bahama color, feel so amazing when I have them on, I forget I’m wearing them. There is not tugging, riding up, tightness in the wrong places and the elastic waist with drawstring is perfect for a customized feel. I love the pockets and the great details in the flare-legs.
The Noir Bouquet Top feels are nice as it looks. The cut is modern but feminine. The fabric feels like a dream AND it has 4 pockets. One of my favorite things is pockets in the bottom of my scrub tops. No more one-pockets tops for me. The fabric is flexible and feels cool on your skin yet is still keeps you warm.
My black Zipper Jacket is my favorite part of the package. I have gotten so many compliments on the style. It is more than just a plain scrub jacket- it has flair and function and feels great on. The details make the jacket stylish and comfortable.
