27 August 2019
Everyone should feel comfortable at work, especially on those warm busy shifts in the healthcare industry. Therefore, the polycotton tunic range will make a perfect addition to your summer workwear wardrobe. Polycotton is a fabric made from a blend of a polyester and cotton, making it a very thin and lightweight fabric. The cotton properties absorbs moisture as well as being really soft, making it a perfect element of the healthcare uniform as it makes it really comfortable to work in. The polyester properties make the fabric durable and non-iron, which is perfect for the healthcare industry as easy to wear uniform is essential. Polycotton is perfect for a variety of healthcare professionals such as for dentist, nurses, carers, pharmacists and many more.
The polycotton tunic range was designed specifically for staff wanting a modern medical look. Our Mercia tunic features an asymmetric collar and a front concealed zip that fastens to the side. The tunic comes in four different colours, such as lilac, pale blue, navy and white, making it perfect for any healthcare professional. It also has an action back and vents for comfort and ease of movement which adds extra comfort to the lightweight fabric. This polycotton style is really popular amongst the dental and hygienist professionals.
Our Blend tunic which is also part of the lightweight healthcare uniform range, the tunic contains a trim on the asymmetric neckline, sleeves and pockets and is available in six different colours. This asymmetrical healthcare tunic is modern twist on our classic style, and an increasingly popular choice for all healthcare professionals. Specifically the Blend tunic in lilac with a navy trim is becoming increasingly popular within the carers, as the lilac colour gives less of the hospitalised feel, making it perfect care assistant uniform.
Our polycotton tunic range also contains our Delamere tunic; the tunic features a concealed open ended zip fastening with top stud and an action back and vents for ease of movement. The Delamere tunic is a stylish choice of anyone looking for a touch of modernity in their healthcare uniform as the asymmetrical crossover design of this tunic accentuates the body’s natural line with the offset trim providing a sharp distinction against the main body colour of the tunic. The Delamere tunic is available in seven different colours, including four different shades of blue, making it perfect if your workplace contains different departments. This tunic is perfect as part of a care assistant uniform, pharmacist uniform and even a dental uniform.
If you really like the style of this tunic but you are wanting something even more lighter, then you can also get a dress version of the Delamere tunic called the Winfell dress. A modern healthcare dress would make a perfect addition to your workwear wardrobe for those hot busy shifts.
The modern polycotton lightweight tunics are becoming more increasingly popular for the carers and dentists as these modern tunics are still very professional, however they give less of the hospitalised feel for the patients which is important for the carers and dentists as they are wanting to make the patients feel as comfortable as possible. Moreover, the lightweight tunics make working easier with the soft as well as durable material. The easy to wear tunics, which do not require ironing are perfect for the healthcare industry.

All NewsFactors to consider when buying new healthcare uniform
18 July 2019
Here, at Dencowear Ltd, we understand how important good quality workwear is within the Healthcare industry. A well designed healthcare uniform helps to uphold a professional image, distinguish between staff and patients, and promotes good infection control.
However, it can be difficult to decide which healthcare dresses, tunics and scrubs are right for you and/or your team.
We’ve outlined the most important features to consider when buying your healthcare uniform and encourage you to consider these points in your decision.
Fabric
Eden Healthcare TunicOur traditional healthcare tunics, dresses and scrubs are made out of a polycotton material which is ideal within the healthcare environment. We also have healthcare tunics in a lightweight fabric perfect for the summer or to keep cool when rushing around your busy work environment.

Role
Delamere Healthcare TunicYour healthcare profession can affect the decision of your healthcare uniform.
This may be the style, colour or fit of your uniform. You may be part of a department in your workplace that wears a classic healthcare tunic in a specific colour so that departments are easily differentiated.
However, not all healthcare professions need to wear a classic medical tunic. Carers and Dentists seem to be leaning to more of a modern brand; you can wear tunics with an asymmetrical neckline such as our Blend and Mercia tunic, or have a more simplistic with the Delemere to represent this. These modern healthcare tunics still provide a professional look but give a more relaxed atmosphere to patients and visitors as oppose to the hospitalised feel you tend to get with the classic healthcare tunics.

UK Manufacturing
Local manufacturing guarantees your uniforms are made to perfection and offers you the flexibility to add bespoke requirements.
Dencowear was single-handedly managed by Sue Sherman when her father, Louis Shinwell, retired.
Sue opened her first tiny workshop in Armley, Leeds in the early 1980s. In the days before computers were widespread and when every order was processed manually on paper.
Dencowear grew rapidly and with more machinists required, the Armley Unit wasn't fit for purpose, so we moved out into a larger factory in Barkston House, Holbeck, Leeds.
Having moved again, twice to meet our growth, Dencowear is now run from our 10,000 square ft HQ @Denco House, Meanwood, Leeds, providing you with award winning healthcare uniforms and bespoke garments for professionals throughout the UK and Europe.

3 Generations of Experience
Did you know the name Den-Co-Wear originated from the garment 'Dental Coat'?
It was a Cossack style Dental Jacket that Louis Shinwell (our current owners Grandfather) brought back from America in 1966, seeing a demand in the UK for this style.
This led to the founding of Dencowear where we would sell Cossack style Dental coats, and a handful of different clinical styles, to Dentists listed in the Dental Registry Book.
Since, the company has grown and developed greatly and we now supply you with high quality garments, in many styles, to a variety of healthcare professions.
Check out some of Dencowears favourite uniforms.
