The Ozone Advantage: Destroying Sweat-Induced Odors and Pathogens

Athletic gear is notorious for holding onto sweat-induced bacteria, leading to that stubborn, sour "gym bag" smell that never seems to wash out.

To give your team the ultimate advantage, all of our commercial athletic laundry is processed at our flagship Berkeley facility using our advanced Ozone laundry system.

Total Odor and Pathogen Elimination: Ozone is a highly effective, natural disinfecting agent that destroys 99.9% of odor-causing bacteria, viruses, and fungi on contact. It doesn't just mask musty sweat smells with heavy artificial perfumes; it completely eliminates them at the microscopic level.

Superior Stain Lifting: Ozone opens up textile fibers, allowing our specialized commercial detergents to break down and lift stubborn grass stains, field clay, sweat rings, and blood without degrading the fabric.

Protects High-Performance Fabrics: Because Ozone cleans and sanitizes beautifully in cold water, it keeps your team's uniforms safe from heat damage. This preserves elastic stretch, protects moisture-wicking technology, and prevents screen-printed numbers and vinyl team logos from cracking or peeling.

Hypoallergenic Wash: Our chemical-free sanitization process means no lingering detergent residues or harsh perfumes - preventing skin irritation, chafing, or allergic reactions for athletes during high-intensity play.

Blast Away Sweat, Mud, and Odors to Keep Your Athletes Game-Day Ready

At The Laundry Room, we understand that athletic wear represents a significant team investment. High-performance polyester, spandex, and compression fabrics require expert care; traditional harsh chemicals and high-heat drying can melt logos, strip away moisture-wicking properties, and break down elastic fibers. We provide specialized athletic laundering for teams throughout Berkeley, Oakland, and the East Bay, delivering ultra-clean, vibrant, and odor-free uniforms all season long.
