Velilla 535201 healthcare scrub tunic with press studs: opens in one pull
White healthcare scrub tunic in 190 g/m² polyester-cotton twill, with a press-stud front closure and V-neck. The press studs make the difference: in the event of a hot splash or spill, the whole garment opens with one pull, without undoing it button by button. Sold separately: trousers not included.
✅ Features
Press studs: open all at once. In an institutional kitchen, a bakery or a treatment room, removing the garment in a second after a spill is a real safety advantage.
V-neck: a comfortable V neckline that leaves room for the stethoscope and doesn't constrict the neck.
Three patch pockets, one on the chest: room for a pen, ID card and notebook.
65/35 twill, 190 g/m²: a fabric with body that isn't see-through despite being white.
No finishes that can degrade: no elastane, no antibacterial or repellent treatment. It is a garment that withstands industrial washing without losing performance, because it has none to lose.
👷 Suitable for
Food industry, bakery workshops and institutional kitchens.
Compounding pharmacies, parapharmacies and opticians.
Medical practices and treatment rooms.
Veterinary clinics and dog grooming.
Testing laboratories.
Professional cleaning services.

🧺 Care
Wash at 60 °C. With no elastane or finishes, it handles the industrial cycle well.
Fasten the press studs before washing so they don't snag other garments in the drum.
Tumble dry and iron at medium temperature; do not iron over the metal press studs.
Chlorine-free optical brightener; bleach yellows white polyester.
Suitable for industrial laundry.
💡 Tip: If you work with hot liquids (bakery, kitchen, sterilisation), choose press studs over sewn-on buttons. A scald burn gets worse every second wet clothing stays in contact with the skin, and undoing five buttons with scalded hands is not a realistic option. It is the same reason professional chef jackets have a quick-release closure.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are the trousers included?
No. 535201 is the tunic only.
What is the advantage of press studs over sewn-on buttons?
The whole garment opens in one pull. If you work with hot liquids, a scald burn gets worse every second wet clothing stays on the skin, and undoing five buttons with scalded hands is not realistic.
Do the press studs come undone by themselves?
Not in normal use. They are designed to give way to a deliberate pull, not to everyday movement.
Should it be washed fastened?
Yes, it is advisable. Open press studs snag other garments in the drum.
Can it withstand industrial washing at 90 degrees?
The manufacturer specifies 60 °C. With no elastane or finishes, it handles a tough cycle well, but the white suffers above 60 °C.
Can it be sterilised in an autoclave?
No. The polyester-cotton blend is not approved for autoclaving.
Can I use bleach?
No. Chlorine yellows white polyester irreversibly.
