How do you clean a sauna suit?
Cleaning a sweat suit - the most important things at a glance:
- Wash the sauna suit by hand at a maximum of 30 degrees
- Always use a mild detergent
- Never dry the sweat suit in the tumble dryer or in direct sunlight
- Do not iron the sweat suit
The right detergent for sweat suits
Always wash the sauna suit by hand. Choosing the right detergent is particularly important for caring for this sensitive material. Since the sauna suit has a silver coating, normal laundry detergents with surfactants and other detergent-active substances would damage the structure. Avoid detergents with bleach additives. We recommend special mild detergents that do not contain enzymes, dyes or preservatives.
The perfect alternative to mild detergent for sweat suits
If you don't have a special detergent at home, you can use a mild, pH-neutral shampoo as a substitute. However, make sure that it does not contain any moisturizing substances, dyes or perfumes.
How to wash sweat suits by hand
As you can read in most care instructions, hand washing is recommended for high-quality sauna suits. But even with this gentle method of washing sauna suits, you can unfortunately do something wrong. If you follow the tips below, nothing should go wrong.
-
Fill the sink or a large bowl with lukewarm water, maximum 30 degrees warm water . Add some detergent.
-
If the fabric is only slightly dirty, you can also wash the sweat suit with cold water.
-
Put the sauna suit in the water and Soak it for a few minutes . Move it gently. Be careful not to press, pull or rub the fabric too hard. This can quickly damage the fibers and the fabric can become rough and brittle.
-
Pour off the washing water and Rinse your sauna suit carefully with clean, cold water.
-
After washing, squeeze the sauna suit carefully. Please do not wring it out. We recommend rolling your garment in a towel and then gently pressing it to gently remove the water.
