Question 1

What is the minimum order quantity for custom hospital uniforms, and is it firm per style or color?

Accepted Answer

Our hospital uniform manufacturer partners typically start at 50 units per style per color. The MOQ is per combination, so a crew neck scrub top in two colors counts as two separate runs of 50 each. When you submit a brief, your production team can flag any flexibility a factory offers based on the specific fabric and decoration methods you choose.

Question 2

How much does a hospital uniform sample cost, and how long does it take to receive?

Accepted Answer

Sample cost and timeline depend on complexity - a collared button up uniform with custom buttons and embroidery will differ from a simple short sleeve crew neck. In general, expect a sample in about 2-3 weeks after your brief is finalized, separate from the production lead time. Your production team provides exact sample pricing once the tech pack is locked.

Question 3

What is the typical production lead time for hospital uniforms?

Accepted Answer

After sample approval, most hospital uniform orders ship in roughly 4-6 weeks. For example, a 250-unit run of twill short sleeve scrub tops with screen print logos and woven labels usually falls on the shorter end, while a more complex button up style with custom buttons and custom packaging may push closer to six weeks. Your team tracks every milestone so you always know where the order stands.

Question 4

Is tiered pricing available at different quantity levels for hospital uniforms?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Pricing tiers exist at 25, 50, 100, 250, and 500 units, and per-unit cost decreases as volume increases. Rather than publishing a fixed price list, we return a detailed quote once you submit a brief so the numbers reflect your exact specs - material, decoration methods like embroidery or screen print, and packaging choices.

Question 5

What private label and white label options are available for hospital uniforms?

Accepted Answer

Private label scope covers woven labels (neck or hem), branded hangtags, screen-printed care info inside the neck, custom buttons, and custom packaging such as branded polybags or boxes. You can bundle everything into one brief or add items a la carte. White label programs - where you apply your brand to a factory-ready silhouette - are also supported.

Question 6

Can your factory partners source materials from a brief, or do I need to supply a named-fabric tech pack?

Accepted Answer

Either path works. If you have a tech pack specifying a particular nylon, twill, canvas/duck, or corduroy, your production team sends it directly to the factory. If you start with a brief - for instance, 'durable diagonal-weave fabric for a hospital uniform with pockets' - the team recommends options like twill or canvas/duck and provides swatches before locking the spec.

Question 7

Can you grade patterns from my custom measurements instead of using stock templates?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Our manufacturing partners grade patterns from your proprietary size specs. You supply your base-size measurements and grading rules, and the factory builds the full size run from scratch rather than stretching a stock template. This is especially useful for hospital uniforms where fit affects comfort during long shifts.

Question 8

Can I mix sizes and colors within a single hospital uniform order?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can split sizes and colors within one MOQ as long as each style-color combination meets the per-SKU minimum. For example, a 250-unit order of short sleeve crew neck hospital uniforms could include three colors across five sizes. Your production team maps out the size-color matrix during the brief stage so the factory quotes accurately.

Question 9

What decoration methods work best for hospital uniform branding?

Accepted Answer

The most popular options are embroidery for stitched logos on chest pockets or sleeves and screen print for bold, durable spot-colour graphics. Woven labels and screen-printed care info handle interior branding, while custom buttons add a subtle branded detail to collared or button up styles. Custom packaging rounds out the presentation. Your production team recommends the right mix based on your brief.
