Let’s be real: gym clothes are where sweat, bacteria, and odour go to party. But don’t worry — with the right wash routine, you can send the stink packing and keep your activewear fresh and high-performing.
What you need
✔ Sensitive Laundry Liquid (with enzyme pristine for odour-busting)
✔ Laundry Pump
Step-by-step guide
Step 1
Turn your gym clothes inside out — that’s where the sweat and bacteria like to hide.
Step 2
Dose Sensitive Laundry Liquid into your washing machine (the enzymes will break down sweat, oils, and odour molecules).
Step 3
Wash on a cool or warm cycle — high heat can wreck elastics.
Step 4
Skip the fabric softener (it clogs the fibres and locks in smells).
Step 5
Air-dry in sunlight if possible — UV rays help kill lingering bacteria.
Pro tip
• For stubborn odours, do a pre-soak with a splash of Sensitive Laundry Liquid before the wash.
• Wash gym gear as soon as possible after wearing — bacteria love a sweaty laundry pile.
Safety first: Always check the care label — many activewear fabrics are heat-sensitive. Avoid tumble drying unless the tag says it’s safe.
Other notes
Odours not shifting? Rewash with Sensitive Laundry Liquid and avoid mixing gym gear with heavy cottons like towels (they trap smells).
Consistent stink in your laundry? Run an empty hot wash with Universal Cleaner to freshen up your washing machine.
