NO SWEAT's standard cleaning process uses a 4 stage wash process. Each stage of the process mixes a unique, specially designed additive into the wash water to attain a specific goal. At the completion of all four steps your item has received a superior cleaning, unmatched anywhere in the industry.

Our exclusive enzyme based soaps have low foaming surfactants and anti soil redeposition agents that help prevent soils from returning to the equipment. Our enzyme fighting stain remover helps eliminate blood, proteins, grass and other organic contaminants from the items being cleaned.
Our low alkaline formula is compatible for leather and fabric dyes and helps preserve the integrity of the tough articles to clean like gloves, runners and skates. It is this bacteria, fungus and mold that causes the unbearable stench of the filthy sports equipment. These organisms are also responsible the break down and rot of the foam, leather and fabric used in the construction of the gear.

Our Fragrance is a nice finisher to the overall process. Parents and players always comment on the clean, fresh scent of their professionally cleaned equipment.

Stage 1: TAK 1
Contains enzymes produced by non pathogenic bacteria. When they come in contact with protein oils – sweat, blood, proteins and fungi they secrete an enzyme that breaks down the soil source allowing it to be digested and removed easily from the fabric being cleaned. At the same time it overpowers the food source of pathogenic bacteria such as staphylococcus, weakening them for an easy kill by stage 3. This process also helps in eliminating odours.

Stage 2: Penetrator
Contains a synergistic blend of detergents, detergent builders, water-soluble solvents, and optical enhancing brighteners. The two distinct detergents which are also known as surfactants reduce surface tension and allow Stage 1 and the balance of ingredients in Stage 2 to penetrate and do their job at breaking down matter. The detergent builders and buffered alkalinity are designed to keep the pH at 9.5 which is where stage 1 will perform best. The builders also soften water and suspend soil after they are released. The water soluble solvents emulsify oil based (sweat) soils. The optical brighteners attach themselves to the fabric and when dry, escalate the reflection of light. This makes the fabric appear brighter and cleaner.

Stage 3: Force
Contains peroxyacetic acid and hydrogen peroxide. They have two functions. Being on the acid side of the pH scale it neutralizes the residual alkalinity left from Stage 2 leaving the end pH on the fabric at the 6.5 to 7.0 which is optimum for the skin to not be sensitized. The other functions they do are penetrating all bacteria, viruses, and mould spores and killing them chemically. Once this takes place, any odour that is still evident after Stage 1 and Stage 2 is totally eliminated. Stage 3Õs peroxyacetic acid and hydrogen peroxide combination have been proven in lab tests to kill germs such as staphylococcus aureus and moulds at a 99.99% efficacy.

Stage 4: Signature
Implants a fresh odour to garments or equipment. This special formulation is made up of a combination of natural essential oils. The unique fragrance is a combination of 140 different natural oil extracts.
