The non-face-to-face culture that began to prevent cross-infection due to the pandemic has now become perfectly established in our daily lives. The biggest change brought about by non-face-to-face is the change in people’s perception of multi-use facilities such as saunas and gyms. There has been an increase in the number of people enjoying saunas and jjimjilbangs alone at home instead of in places where the public gathers. While home saunas have recently gained explosive popularity in the market, ‘de-salt’, a premium dry home sauna brand launched by premium furniture specialist Eurohill, is receiving tremendous attention.

 

Sauna is enjoyed by people all over the world, regardless of age or gender

Sauna helps to prevent cardiovascular disease, detox, improve skin, recover from fatigue, and strengthen immunity

Sauna is a lifestyle custom that has been enjoyed by all mankind for a long time, regardless of time and place. Sauna is very good for preventing cardiovascular disease due to increased heart rate and dilation of blood vessels, and is known to be very effective in detoxification, skin improvement, and fatigue recovery. According to a study published by the University of Eastern Finland in the American Journal of Hypertension, sauna use significantly lowered the risk of high blood pressure in middle-aged men, and men who took a sauna 4 to 7 times a week had a lower risk than men who took a sauna only once a week. The risk of high blood pressure was found to be 46% lower. It was found that men who took a sauna 2-3 times a week had a 24% lower risk of high blood pressure than men who took a sauna once a week. Sauna increases body temperature by 1 to 2 degrees from normal body temperature, dilating blood vessels, helping blood circulation, improving internal function of blood vessels, and lowering blood pressure. Many people already know that an increase in body temperature by 1 degree increases immunity by more than 5 times.

 

‘de-salt’, a premium dry home sauna made by a premium furniture company

Hexagonal salt brick, Himalayan rock salt, alloy heating wire, and carbon heating plate technology for proven effectiveness and verification

Koreans have a special love for saunas. Sauna has received a lot of attention globally as K-content, and home saunas are attracting attention since the pandemic. Eurohill is a company that has been producing kitchen and hotel furniture for 23 years and exporting its products to developed countries such as Japan. It has recently launched a high-quality premium dry home sauna brand ‘de-salt’ and is attracting a lot of attention at home and abroad. Far-infrared alloy heating wire and carbon heating plate technology have been applied to further increase thermal efficiency and sauna effect, and the efficacy and safety of the product have been verified, and are receiving a lot of attention at home and abroad. Eurohill CEO Hakmuk Choi said “de-salt uses salt bricks, which are excellent for removing toxins from the body. I highly recommend it to people who have cold hands and feet or body, people with weak immunity, people with poor blood circulation, people who want to lose weight and improve their skin, people who suffer from muscle pain and joint pain, people who suffer from skin diseases, and elderly people with weakened energy.”

 

Eliminates toxins from the body, improves dermatitis, and promotes metabolism by emitting a large amount of far-infrared rays and anions

Completed various efficacy certifications and safety tests for hazardous substances by a national certification agency

de-salt used hexagonal salt bricks and Himalayan rock salt as finishing materials. Salt bricks are bricks made by pulverizing domestic sea salt into fine particles and then strongly compressing it with high temperature, high pressure, and high steam. They emit enormous amounts of far-infrared rays and negative ions. Himalayan rock salt is a natural salt collected from the Himalayan Mountains, which was formed 250 million years ago. It has a pink color and is installed on the walls and floor inside the de-salt. Salt removes toxins from the skin through osmotic pressure, improves blood circulation, and has excellent antibacterial and disinfecting effects. When ingested or inhaled, it is effective in suppressing harmful bacteria in the human body and relieving skin inflammation, and is known to be very effective in improving dermatitis such as atopy. Choi said “When the patented hexagonal salt brick is heated to a temperature of over 30°C, it emits more than 91% of far infrared rays and a large amount of negative ions. The far infrared ray wavelength penetrates 4 to 5 cm into the skin, expelling waste from the blood and expanding capillaries. Our salt bricks have the only porous function in Korea, so they have antibacterial, anti-mold, and deodorizing effects, and have the characteristic of neutralizing black mold, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, ammonia, and acetic acid. As a result of verification by the national certification agency, 8 types of VOC (volatile organic compounds such as benzene and toluene) were not detected, and the stability of radon detection was also verified. Currently, our hexagonal salt bricks are being exported to Japan.”

 

From sauna to phytoncide forest bathing

Using the highest quality cypress wood imported from Japan

Fast thermal conductivity and high energy efficiency, reaching up to 100°C in 20 seconds

Eurohill imports and uses only cypress trees over 70 years old from Okayama Prefecture, Japan, and both wood drying and processing are done by experts in Japan. As a result, the woods have few knots, no cracks over time, so there has not been a single customer complaint so far. The effectiveness of far-infrared rays was maximized by using products from Philips, which has the world’s best technology in this field, and the ultra-high-speed alloy heating wire used ultra-precision ultra-fine heating wires. The thermal conductivity of the carbon heating plate is also very high, so the room temperature reaches 100°C within 20 seconds after the product starts operation. It has completed electromagnetic compatibility certification for electrical devices, automatically turns off when the set temperature is reached, and power consumption is extremely low at around 1800W (based on top-of-the-line products for one person). The seat is designed to fit the spine line that extends from the neck to the waist and back, providing a pleasant sitting experience and comfort. Since the entrance door is entirely made of tempered glass, there is a high sense of openness and no stuffiness.
