Sauna Menthol and Jokipiin Pellava to collaborate
There is strength in cooperation. Sauna Menthol and the traditional Jokipiin Pellava have started cooperation in February 2026. The first concrete step of the collaboration was to launch a limited edition gift set that combined the high-quality textile and sauna products of both companies. The launch was carried out in a batch of 500 pieces and the face of the collaboration was well-known sauna lover Vappu Pimiä. The story of Sauna Menthol is built on the idea of a holistic sauna experience. Menthol crystals bring a new dimension to the sauna, refreshing the breath and creating a unique cooling atmosphere in the sauna. The key factors in developing our products are user experience, safety and 100% natural ingredients. Jokipiin Pellava, on the other hand, represents Finnish textile tradition at its best. The company's roots go back to 1920, when Jokipiin Pellava was founded. A long history, domestic manufacturing and uncompromising quality have made the company Finland's best-known manufacturer of sauna textiles. Linen as a material is excellent for saunas due to its durability, breathability and naturalness. The collaboration was born from a shared vision: the sauna experience is built from several elements that complement each other. When high-quality sauna textiles are combined with carefully crafted sauna products, a whole is created that serves the sauna user in the best possible way.

There are many sauna scents. Choose the right sauna ice for you depending on the situation.
Sauna scent Sauna ice Sauna Menthol sauna scents are designed especially for those who want something completely new and different from their sauna experience. Sauna ice is a 100% natural product and is made by crystallizing mint oil. Nothing but completely natural aromas are ever added to the sauna scents made by Sauna Menthol. They are completely safe to use and are listed as essential oils, even though they are in solid form. Sauna ice, or menthol crystals, are really strong, so it is worth starting to use them carefully in small doses and increasing according to your own feelings. How aromatized sauna scents are made Sauna Menthol lemon, lavender and eucalyptus is made from mainly the same raw materials as our original product. The aroma is created by combining mint oil and various essential oils in the right proportion. The manufacturing method has been carefully thought out to preserve the typical cooling and opening effect of Sauna Menthol but in addition, the typical clean scent of sauna fragrance is created in the right proportion. For us, it is of primary importance to create a completely 100% natural sauna experience that works. How should Sauna Menthol lemon, lavender and eucalyptus be administered? Sauna Menthol sauna ice products should be dosed according to our recommendations . The effect and effectiveness of sauna ice are affected by, among other things, the size of the sauna, the location of the heater, the arrangement of benches and ventilation. The effect of sauna ice is based on the evaporation of menthol crystals, so the behavior of the steam in the sauna is the most important influencing factor. Sauna Menthol lemon, lavender and eucalyptus are dosed according to the same instructions as our original products. We recommend starting with 1-3 crystals in a sauna bucket with water and testing the effect with a small dose first. If you feel that you need more of a kick, gradually increase the amount of crystals. When using it, remember that Sauna Menthol menthol crystals must not be taken into the sauna, as their melting point is 41 degrees. Always build up the dose outside the sauna using a small spoon or by dosing from a bag. How long do aromatized sauna scents last? The duration of the effect of sauna ice is many times longer than traditional sauna scents. A regular sauna scent is usually just a smell that evaporates in a few seconds, while the duration of the effect of sauna ice can be tens of minutes at best. Menthol evaporates in the sauna and creates a really cooling feeling on the skin, while effectively opening the respiratory tract. Aromatized crystals have the same effect as our traditional original product, but also give an extra boost with the help of the scent. Aromatized crystals do not leave any residue or scent on the sauna, because they are designed to evaporate effectively and evaporate into the room air. The rule of thumb is that with a suitably effective dose, the duration of the effect of Sauna Menthol sauna ice is about 10-15 minutes. The cool feeling in the body can continue even longer after the sauna. We definitely recommend trying our new products Sauna Menthol Lemon , Sauna Menthol Lavender and Sauna Menthol Eucalyptus . They are the world's first aromatized menthol crystals created especially for sauna users who are tired of traditional, plain scents and want to invest in an exceptionally cool sauna experience. Sauna ice is also suitable for treating colds/congestion, as menthol is very strong and opens the airways effectively.
