The Science Behind OdorBalance Technology

Posted on by

Body odor can linger on clothes, shoes, and sports equipment and even worsen over time if left untreated. Odor that sticks on clothes and shoes can create an unpleasant, pervasive smell in your home or vehicle. OdorBalance fights the source of these odors using a unique, eco-friendly formula.

What Causes Bad Odors?

Unpleasant odors that are found in sports equipment, clothing, and shoes are mainly caused by bacteria that feed on sweat. These bacteria can become embedded in fabrics and other materials. Odor is also produced when moisture becomes trapped and creates a home for mildews and molds.

How Does OdorBalance Combat Unpleasant Odors?

OdorBalance cleaning products penetrate fabrics and equipment to remove odor-causing contaminants. While other products can sit on the surface and simply mask odors, OdorBalance provides lasting protection against odor. This innovative product removes dirt, grime, residues, oil, and bacteria, leaving items clean and odor-free. The product bonds with items after application, so it creates a lasting defense against odor.

What Does OdorBalance Consist of?

OdorBalance is made of natural ingredients that are biodegradable. This product is fragrance-free and does not contain harmful metals or toxins. When used as directed, there is little to no risk of harm through airborne exposure or contact with any of our products.

How Was the Product Developed?

The formula that became OdorBalance was invented 30 years ago. This technology began as an anti-static agent and evolved into an odor-fighting system. We created a formula that is eco-friendly, long-lasting, and effective at removing dirt, residues, and odor-causing bacteria.

You don’t have to live with foul-smelling clothing, shoes, and sports equipment in your home. If you are interested in purchasing OdorBalance products, you can find them online or at a variety of retail stores. Call us today at (410) 975-5367 to learn more!

Recognizing When Topical Spray Cleaners Aren’t Enough to Clean Sports Equipment

Posted on by

Staying active by playing a sport is a great way to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Unfortunately, the odors produced by our body when physically active are often absorbed by our sports equipment. While topical spray cleaners may remove some minor odors, they may not be effective enough to completely remove lingering odors from sports equipment.

  • You Cannot Get Rid Of the Odor

If you have noticed that your sports gear is beginning to smell, you may turn to a topical spray cleaner first. These cleaners work on the surface of sports gears, helping to clean and remove odors from the top layers of fabric. However, topical spray cleaners may not be able to penetrate deeply into sports gears. The odors that you smell in your padding, jerseys, and footwear are from sweat, dirt, and pollen that have been completely absorbed by the fabric of your sports equipment. If you have tried treating your sports gear with a topical spray cleaner but cannot seem to get rid of the odors, you may need to use a stronger detergent.

  • Odors Come Back Quickly

You may find that topical spray cleaners seem to effectively remove lingering odors from your sports equipment, especially if you use them repeatedly. However, odors that come back quickly when you begin using your sports equipment after cleaning indicate that the materials of your sports gear are still soiled. In this case, using a specialized detergent to thoroughly clean your equipment may be necessary to eliminate odors. Next, use a protector spray to create an odor-blocking barrier on your sports equipment to ensure that odors do not come back as soon as you begin using the gear again.

OdorBalance™ offers a wide range of laundry boosters and protector sprays to keep your new and used sports equipment odor-free. To learn more about our products, call OdorBalance™ today at (410) 975-5367.
