Why are sauna products good corporate and customer gifts?
Sauna products are a great way to delight customers or staff. The purpose of corporate and customer gifts is to strengthen relationships, build a positive image and communicate appreciation towards the target group. A well-chosen gift says a lot about the company's values and thoughtfulness. Sauna products have become one of the most popular options in recent years – and for good reason. In Finnish culture, a sauna is more than just a place to relax. It is part of identity, community and well-being. When a company chooses a sauna product as a gift, it also gives a piece of Finnish tradition and well-being. This makes the gift meaningful and easily identifiable, whether the recipient is a domestic or international partner. The advantage of sauna products is their versatility. They are equally suitable for employees, customers and stakeholders. Another advantage of sauna products is that they are useful and of high quality, and they usually do not remain on a shelf to gather dust, but can actually be used. Almost everyone in Finland has a sauna, and the whole family usually uses it. This means that the gift may be enjoyed not only by the recipient, but also by other family members and friends. This usually improves the principle of operation and experience of the gift. From a company's perspective, sauna products offer a great opportunity to stand out. They can easily be branded with your own message or brand, for example with personalized packaging or a gift set . Such a practical and well-being-enhancing gift creates a positive memory that will last a long time. In addition, sauna products support sustainable and responsible thinking. Many Finnish manufacturers invest in domesticity, natural raw materials and ecological packaging. A company that chooses such products shows that it values quality and the environment – values that customers and employees increasingly expect. Sauna products are much more than a traditional gift. They offer moments of relaxation, support well-being and communicate care. When you want to give something meaningful and Finnish, a sauna gift is a choice that will last and leave a warm impression. Sauna Menthol is a great example of a functional corporate and customer gift. We have been pleased to note that there has been a growing demand for Sauna Menthol in the corporate and customer gift segment as well. Traditional sauna scents or sauna products in general have been given as gifts for decades, but Sauna Menthol does what many other products do not, it leaves a very strong memory imprint on the customer. Menthol creates a strong, opening, cooling and relaxing sauna experience for the user of the product, which is sure to be a story in itself. The purpose of the gift is above all to arouse a positive feeling in the other party and promote future cooperation. A company that values its customers or staff should consider whether the annual chocolate bar or coffee package will genuinely carry it forward or whether it would be good to think about something new and different. A gift can also have a significant commercial impact when considering a gift from that perspective. Good gifts are memorable and future conversations can, for example, generate sales thanks to that alone.

The growth of sauna culture around the world – a revolution in Finnish sauna art
The growth of sauna culture is significant worldwide Sauna is no longer just a Finnish specialty or a small experience package behind the cottage, but its warmth has conquered the entire international market. In recent years, sauna culture has grown exponentially in the United States, Asia, and Central Europe – and there are a few clear reasons for this. 1. Wellness trends are bringing sauna to the surface People are increasingly looking for more effective ways to recover and manage stress. A sauna offers the perfect place to stop: the heat relaxes muscles, opens the airways and takes care of the skin. When wellness influencers and fitness professionals share their experiences, the moped is eager to show off. An infrared sauna installed in a yoga studio or a luxurious steam room in a spa hotel shows that a sauna is just as suitable for urban everyday life as it is for a cottage pier. In Finland, we often think of the sauna as just our everyday ritual, but around the world it is becoming a huge wellness business. 2. Digital inspiration – from social media to sauna benches Instagram stars, YouTube channels and TikTok videos are highlighting new forms of sauna: from traditional log saunas to increasingly popular futuristic sauna cabins. Sauna scents and steam bath scents – such as the new ones containing menthol – are receiving rave reviews in visual posts. When you see incredible sauna experiences on social media, building your own sauna vision feels even more attractive. Various products that enhance the well-being experience, such as sauna scent, sauna ice, steam bath scent and other related products, further enhance the sauna experience. 3. Cultures meet in the sauna Designer saunas have sprung up in many Asian cities, combining Finnish thermal rituals with Japanese hot tubs and Korean skin care. A spa in the heart of the city offers, for example, a round of five different aromatherapy saunas, and you can choose from several different rituals to create the most pleasant sauna experience for yourself. Different spas offer many different sauna scents as part of the sauna experience. 4. Ecology and Finnish sauna scents More and more consumers are choosing ecologically produced sauna products and sauna fragrances that are based on natural ingredients. Finnish-made menthol-based sauna fragrances have aroused interest: they often offer a freshness combined with nuances of Finnish nature. Sauna Menthol is one of the products that has impressed Finns as a sauna fragrance, and it is noticeable. 5. Sauna as a social experience Community has been at the heart of saunas for centuries. Now this extends to social media live streams, virtual sauna nights and international pop-up events. People meet each other on benches, exchange sauna tips and discover new sauna scents. This kind of social bonding is further increasing the popularity of sauna culture. Summary Sauna culture is no longer limited to Finland – it has become globally popular thanks to wellness trends, social media and innovative product concepts. Whether your sauna is a traditional log sauna, an infrared module or a spa sauna in a city hotel, make it a completely unique sauna experience by using sauna scents and Sauna Menthol.

Whether your goal is to relieve stress, improve your skin condition, or recover from exercise, a sauna offers a natural solution. The heat of a sauna affects the body on many levels.
