Activewear isn’t like regular laundry.

Activewear is made from high-performance, technical fabrics that are more delicate, and more expensive.

What Makes Us Better for Activewear Longevity?


1. Five Targeted Surfactants (Not Just One)

Most detergents rely on one or two surfactants to do all the heavy lifting. We use five, each chosen to break down different kinds of buildup without damaging the fabric. The result is a deeper clean that preserves the integrity of your activewear.


2. pH-Balanced

Harsh detergents are often too alkaline, which can weaken synthetic fibers over time. Sweat Chemistry is pH-balanced to stay gentle on performance fabrics. This helps your gear maintain its stretch, fit, and sweat-wicking power, wash after wash.


3. No Harsh Chemicals

Bleach, enzymes, and aggressive detergents can break down fibers, cause pilling, and ruin stretch or colour. Sweat Chemistry skips the harsh stuff but still deep cleans to keep your gear in top shape.

Your sweat isn’t the problem. The bacteria is.

 In fact, sweat itself doesn’t smell — it’s the bacteria that causes those lingering odours.

What Makes Us Better At Removing Work-Out Level Bacteria?


1. More Surfactants = A Deeper, Safer Clean

Most detergents, even those formulated for activewear, use one or two surfactants. We use five. This means a deeper clean that lifts away sweat, oils, and odour-causing buildup without damaging stretch, structure, or performance fabrics.


2. No Fillers or Fragrance Masking

Fabric softeners, perfumes, and brighteners don’t clean. They leave behind residue that traps sweat and odour at the micro level. High-performance fabrics are especially prone to buildup, which makes smells worse over time.

3. Tackles Microbial Buildup Naturally

Ingredients like Caprylyl Glycol help prevent the bacterial growth that causes your gear to smell mid-workout.

The chemicals in your detergent aren’t just rinsed away, they stay on your skin, 24/7.

What’s even more concerning? Many detergents sold in Canada contain ingredients that are banned in Europe for safety reasons.

That’s why Sweat Chemistry is proudly free from:

- Palm oils

- SLS and SLES

- Sulfates

- Parabens

- Perfumes

- 1,4-Dioxane

Better for the Planet

Many conventional detergents contain ingredients that harm waterways, wildlife, and ecosystems.

At Sweat Chemistry, we’re committed to protecting the planet by avoiding harmful chemicals like sulfates, parabens, phthalates, chlorine, phosphates, and petroleums. These substances can pollute water, disrupt aquatic life, and contribute to deforestation and climate change.


We also steer clear of palm oil, which is linked to habitat destruction and loss of biodiversity.

Plus, our formula is 100% biodegradable, meaning it breaks down naturally without leaving harmful residues behind.
