How Nutryl™ works

If you are a sport parent, you already know the pattern. You clean your child’s gear. You let it dry. You may even spray it with a deodorizer or freshener. For a short time, it smells fine. Then, after a few practices or games, the odour comes back.

The problem

The problem is not neglect or poor hygiene. As parents, we know it is tough to manage gear smell. We try our best, the gear is aired out in garages and basements. Gear is left open in bags or hung to dry. Sprays, powders, and other odour-control products are used regularly.

What Causes Sports Gear Odour

  • Sweat itself is mostly odourless
  • Odour is created when bacteria and fungi grow in warm, damp equipment
  • These microbes break down sweat and produce odour-causing compounds

Most solutions available to you, focus on making gear smell better temporarily by masking odours, but do not address the root cause which is why the odour returns.

Nutryl™ treats the root cause of odour

Nutryl™ was developed to treat the "why odour happens", this is the key to managing the problem more effectively. Preventing odour is not about making gear smell temporarily fresher. It is about consistently addressing the conditions that allow odour to develop in the first place.

  • Odour reduction means the source (bacteria) has been addressed
  • Remaining smell fades with time
  • Ph neutral, non-toxic solution keeps gear, players, and materials safe

Nutryl™ is designed around this reality. Instead of acting as a one‑time odour cover, it is used as a preventative system, reducing the buildup of odour‑causing microbes.

The solution

What happens when you clean your gear regularly with Nutryl™?

  • Bacteria are eliminated
  • New odour production stops
  • Existing odour molecules may remain trapped in the gear. This means smell improves quickly, but may not disappear instantly.

What Is "Residual Odour"?

  • Odour molecules produced in the past can become trapped in:
  • Foam padding
  • Fabrics and liners
  • Stitching and adhesives
  • These compounds release slowly over time, even after bacteria are gone
  • Moisture can temporarily re-release trapped odours

What Results Should You Expect?

  • Immediate: Odor noticeably reduced
  • Short term: Continued improvement over days
  • Longer term: Full odor neutrality as trapped odors dissipate
