Sauna sheets – Sauna sheets are the large towelling or terry cloths guests spread on the bench before sitting down in a sauna, steam room or relaxation area. The relevant criteria are sheet size, fabric weight in grams per square metre, cotton quality, edge finish and behaviour after repeated industrial laundering at the temperatures used in hotel wellness operations.
When asking for a quotation, give the sheet size, the required weight, the colour and the number of wellness benches or loungers to be covered per shift. Composition, dimensions, weight and recommended washing temperature are shown in the technical data of each product.
Sauna sheets: procurement considerations
- Size: Sauna sheets are longer than a bath towel so that the whole bench length is covered; check the stated dimensions against your bench and lounger sizes.
- Fabric weight: Lighter weights dry faster and reduce laundry load, while heavier terry feels more substantial underneath the guest and lasts longer in high-turnover wellness areas.
- Laundry resistance: Wellness textiles are washed at high temperature and frequently; colour fastness, shrinkage and hem construction determine how many cycles a sheet survives.
- Colour policy: A separate colour for the wellness area keeps sauna sheets out of the room towel circuit and makes stock counting in the laundry considerably simpler.
Frequently asked questions about this category
How many sauna sheets should be held per bench?
Wellness operations usually calculate several sets per position so that one set is in use, one in the laundry and one in reserve. The exact ratio depends on your laundry turnaround.
Can sauna sheets be embroidered with the hotel logo?
Logo embroidery is available on most terry items. Please send the logo file and the intended placement so that the set-up can be quoted separately.
