Prolongs life + Enhances comfort!

Why do sauna suits need special cleaning?

Sauna suits are exposed to high-temperature sweat for a long time, and the fabrics (mostly polyester, silver ion coated or bamboo fiber) are prone to accumulating grease, salt and bacteria.

Wrong way of cleaning will lead to:  

✅ Hardening of fibers and loss of breathability  

✅ Failure of bacterial inhibition  

✅ Loss of elasticity and distortion of shape  

5 steps of scientific cleaning method, let the sauna suit “breathe like new”

1. Pretreatment of sweat stains (key!)

Immediate action: Wash within 24 hours after use to avoid oxidizing and yellowing of sweat.

Topical treatment: Lightly spray underarms and back with white vinegar + water (1:3) and leave for 5 minutes to break down protein stains.

2. Hand wash is preferred, machine wash with caution

Hand wash formula: 30℃ warm water + 1 capful of neutral enzyme laundry detergent (decompose organic matter more gently).  

Machine wash setting: Load laundry bag, select “gentle mode + cold water + no spin”.

3. Reject the “invisible killer”: softener and hot water

Softener  will block the fabric ventilation holes, affecting the sweat function.  

Water temperature over 40 ℃  leads to fiber shrinkage, it is recommended to use room temperature water.  

4. Drying skills: avoid light and lay flat

Avoid exposure to the sun: UV rays accelerate fabric aging, choose to ventilate the shade drying  

Reverse hanging: inside out to minimize friction and pilling of the outer layer.  

5. Deep maintenance: 1 time a month “salt care”

Soak solution: 4L water + 50g baking soda, soak for 1 hour and then rinse to neutralize acidic sweat stains.
