Questions about all medicus scrub caps

How do I know what size scrub cap to order?
Measure around your head where the cap will sit (typically just above your ears and across your forehead). Our size guide shows estimated measurements for each size from XS to 2XL. If you're between sizes, we recommend ordering a sample box to try before committing as people also wear their scrub caps differently even if they wear the same size.
What material are your scrub caps made from?
All our caps are made from 100% premium cotton that's breathable, comfortable during long shifts, and naturally absorbent—no need for a separate sweatband. The fabric is tested for durability and comfort in clinical environments. We also offer Hemp as a new material we are piloting in some NHS Trusts.
Are your scrub caps suitable for operating theatres?
Yes. Our caps meet NHS workwear guidance and are used across operating theatres, labs, kitchens, and clinical environments. They're tested through industrial washing, autoclaves, and daily clinical use.
Will my scrub cap survive NHS commercial washing?
Yes. All our scrub caps are made from 100% cotton tested to withstand commercial laundering and drying and have even been in autoclave sterilisation. The fabric and embroidery maintain their quality through hundreds of wash cycles.
How should I wash my scrub cap at home?
Follow your workplace washing policy. General guidance is machine wash at 40-60°C with similar colours. Tumble dry on low or air dry. Iron on medium heat if needed. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners which can affect the cotton's breathability. We have NHS Trusts washing at higher temperatures like 70C so depends on your use case and work policies.
How long will my scrub cap order take?
Most personalised orders are made and dispatched within 1-5 working days depending on the complexity and time of year you order as we do get busy. Custom printed fabric caps take 5-7 working days. Standard UK delivery is 2-3 days after dispatch. We'll email tracking information when your order ships.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes, we ship worldwide from the UK to Japan, Africa, and everywhere in between. International orders may require courier or special delivery services depending on your location. Shipping costs are calculated at checkout.
Are your scrub caps sustainable?
Yes. Our reusable caps replace thousands of disposable caps—just 20 surgical teams using 5 caps each prevents approximately 100,000 single-use caps from landfill annually.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are scrub caps made from?

All Medicus scrub caps are made from 100% premium cotton — breathable, lightweight, and durable enough for long theatre shifts. The cotton is autoclave-safe and can be machine washed at 60°C to meet NHS infection control guidelines. Optional satin lining is available for hair protection.

How do I find the right size scrub cap?

Measure around the widest part of your head (above your ears and eyebrows) with a soft tape measure. Our scrub caps come in sizes XS to 2XL, fitting head circumferences from 52cm to 69cm. Visit our sizing guide for detailed instructions and size charts for each style.

What styles of scrub cap do you offer?

We offer three main styles: Bandana (classic tie-back with full coverage), Captain (fitted tie-back with a structured front), and Elastic Backed (no-tie slip-on for quick on-and-off). We also offer specialist designs including hijab scrub caps for full head and neck coverage, bouffant styles for thick or long hair, and mullet scrub caps with a contrasting band.

Do you make hijab scrub caps?

Yes. Our hijab scrub caps are a reusable, full-coverage theatre hat designed for Muslim healthcare staff, covering the head and neck in one piece so nothing needs tucking mid-procedure. They come in the same 100% cotton as the rest of the range, wash at 60°C, and can be personalised with a name and role. There is more background in can I wear a scrub cap with a hijab.

Can I personalise my scrub cap with my name?

Yes. We offer personalised embroidery with your name, role, department, or logo in multiple fonts and thread colours. You can also add ID bands, ClearName heat transfers for hospital laundry systems, or satin lining for hair protection. All personalisation is done in-house in Sheffield.

Are reusable scrub caps allowed in NHS theatres?

Yes. Many NHS trusts now actively encourage reusable theatre caps as a sustainable alternative to disposable options. Our scrub caps meet NHS washing guidelines when laundered at 60°C. Each reusable cap replaces over 100 disposable alternatives per year, reducing clinical waste significantly.

How long does delivery take?

Standard scrub caps are made to order and typically dispatched within 1–3 working days. Personalised or embroidered caps take 1–6 working days depending on the customisation. UK delivery is free on all orders. International shipping is available to most countries with delivery in 5–14 working days.
