Who Can Benefit from OdorBalance™ Products?

Posted on by

While everyone tends to have body odor, individuals who participate in physical sports tend to produce more odor-causing sweat, which can easily be absorbed by their sports equipment and apparel. OdorBalance™ has developed a number of products that can be used to remove and prevent odors in sports gear. Let’s take a closer look at some of the individuals who may benefit from using these products.

OdorBalance Fights Odor in Hockey Equipment

  • Hockey Players

Hockey is both a full-contact and energy-intensive sport. Because of this, those who play hockey are required to wear large amounts of padding which can easily become soiled with sweat. Hockey players can greatly benefit from using the odor-fighting products developed by OdorBalance™ on their sports apparel and padding.

  • Football Players

Like hockey players, football players tend to wear large amounts of padding. In addition to absorbing body odor and sweat, football equipment can easily develop odors when organic elements, such as grass and dirt, become embedded in the fibers of the gear. Football players can help keep their jerseys, footwear, and padding smelling fresh by using OdorBalance™’s wide range of products.

  • Runners

Even athletes who do not play team sports that require padding can benefit from using OdorBalance™ products. Runners, for example, often discover that their running shoes develop bad odors over time which cannot be eliminated using conventional cleaners. OdorBalance™’s gear and footwear cleaning system is great for getting rid of existing odors and preventing shoes from becoming soiled again.

  • Families of Athletes

Whether you are the parent, spouse, or roommate of an athlete, you have probably discovered that the odors in sports gear tend to spread through your home. Help protect your closets, carpets, and furniture from bad smells by using OdorBalance™ products to clean the sports equipment of the athlete in your life.

These are just a few of the different athletes and sports players who can benefit from OdorBalance™ products. To learn more about our line of cleaners, call OdorBalance™ today at (410) 975-5367.

How To Remove Odor From Shoes

Posted on by

Removing odor from shoes can be difficult if you don’t understand the science behind it. Trying to remove odor by spraying a product on smelly shoes will only be a temporary fix. Fragrances only mask the problem. Many products and techniques have been developed to remove odors, but at best, they offer only a one-time, temporary relief.

But there is a healthy and long-lasting solution!

1. In order to remove odor you have to first clean all surfaces thoroughly with a product that controls what is causing it.

· Soil
· Sweat
· Bacteria

2. Cleaning requires total submersion of the shoe in a dip. With a little elbow grease and a brush you can remove odor caused by bacteria, sweat, soil and mold. Within a few minutes your shoes can smell clean and odor free.

3. Immediately following the cleaning you can protect your shoes from future odor by dipping or spraying on an odor protector.

Problem solved! Simple and easy.

It gets even easier if your sport clothes, equipment, and gear is new. The solution to odor is to protect them when they are new, before the sources of odor can get a foothold. There is only one line of products out there that does this. OdorBalance. And on top of that, it’s Eco-Friendly, Odorless, Biodegradable and Hypoallergenic. “Restore, Protect and Maintain.”

“Premium apparel and cleaning products designed specifically for the control of odor caused by bacteria, sweat, soil and mold.”

Tired of Sweat Stains on Your Baseball Cap?

In this short video, baseball instructor Jory Jensen discusses how to get sweat stains out of a baseball cap. All you have to do is take a shower with your baseball cap on your head, and scrub it as if it’s your hair. After you get out of the shower, continue to wear the hat so it keeps its shape.
