Serving Cornwall and SDG
Fresh Gear. No Chemicals. Ready in 1 hour.
Professional ozone sanitization for sports equipment, tactical gear, and fitness items. We help reduce bacteria and odour without soaking or harsh chemicals.
This Service is For You If…
Parents & Athletes
Your hockey bag smells like a locker room. Your gloves are crusty. Your skates make the car unbearable. Home washing doesn't reach the bacteria trapped deep in foam and fabric — and it can damage expensive gear.
What we do:
Ozone penetrates every layer to help reduce odour and bacteria, so your gear smells fresh and feels better to wear.
Coaches & Team Managers
Managing a team means coordinating gear, schedules, and budgets. Smelly equipment affects morale. Bulk cleaning at home isn't practical.
What we do:
We handle team orders with flexible timing and straightforward pricing. Drop off multiple bags, pick them up sanitized and ready for the next game.
Tactical & EMS Workers
Your vest, boots, and uniform are exposed to bodily fluids, sweat, and contaminants daily. Standard washing doesn't always cut it, and some gear can't be machine-washed.
What we do:
Professional-grade ozone sanitization helps reduce bacteria and odour in tactical vests, helmets, medical bags, and boots — keeping your gear field-ready.
Tournament or Event?
Mobile Service Available
Hosting a multi-day tournament or managing teams at an away event? Ask about our mobile sanitization service. We bring professional ozone equipment to your venue so players can refresh gear between games.
What We Do
And How It's Different
Gear Guard is a local sanitization service that uses professional-grade ozone technology to help reduce bacteria and odour in sports equipment, tactical gear, and fitness items.
Unlike home washing, ozone cleaning penetrates deep into foam padding, fabric linings, and hard-to-reach areas — the places where bacteria and smell actually live. The process is chemical-free, leaves no residue, and doesn't soak or damage your gear.
What We Sanitize:
Sports Equipment
- Hockey, ringette, lacrosse, football equipment
- Goalie gear
- Soccer and baseball cleats, gloves
- Ski boots, winter boots
Work
- Tactical vests, helmets, duty belts
- Paramedic and EMS uniforms, boots, medical bags
Fitness
- Yoga mats, gym mats, weight belts, resistance bands
- MMA and boxing gloves

Frequently Asked Questions
We use professional-grade ozone sanitization technology that's been proven effective in commercial and medical settings. Here's what you need to know.
Yes, when used properly. Ozone is a powerful sanitizing agent that breaks down naturally into oxygen after the cycle completes. We follow strict protocols to ensure safe handling and ventilation. Your gear is safe to use immediately after pickup.
Sprays and deodorizers mask odour temporarily but don't eliminate the bacteria causing it. Worse, many sprays leave chemical residue on your gear that can be absorbed through open pores when you sweat during activity.
Ozone sanitization is different. It penetrates deep into foam, fabric, and hard-to-reach areas to help reduce bacteria at the source — without leaving any chemical residue behind. Once the ozone cycle is complete, it breaks down naturally into oxygen, leaving your gear fresh, dry, and safe to use immediately.
The result: Real odour control, not just masking — and no chemicals absorbed into your skin.
Ozone is effective against a wide range of bacteria, viruses, mold, and fungi commonly found in sports equipment, including:
Bacteria:
- Staphylococcus aureus (Staph)
- MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus)
- E. coli
- Streptococcus
- Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Mold & Fungi:
- Aspergillus
- Candida
- Penicillium
- Athlete's foot fungus (Trichophyton)
Viruses:
- Influenza
- Norovirus
- Rhinovirus (common cold)
Ozone works by breaking down the cell walls of these microorganisms, helping to reduce up to 98% of bacteria and significantly controlling odour. It's the same technology used in hospitals, water treatment facilities, and commercial sanitization — proven effective and safe when used properly.
Ozone helps reduce up to 98% of bacteria and significantly reduces odour. Your gear will smell noticeably fresher and feel more comfortable to wear. This process is designed for sanitization and odour control — it's not a structural cleaning and won't remove visible dirt, stains, or repair damage.
No. Ozone sanitization is a dry process — there's no soaking, scrubbing, or harsh chemicals that could break down materials. It's safe for foam, fabric, leather, and plastics commonly used in sports and tactical equipment.
Make sure all equipment is fully dry before drop-off. Remove personal items, water bottles, tape, towels, and electronics. Only include items to be sanitized.
Your gear is ready for pickup 1 hour after your scheduled time on the day of your booking. Feel free to drop off your gear at any point on the day of your booking (prior to slot) or drop it right on queue and then run some errands while the ozone process cleans your gear.
Yes. Contact us and we'll help coordinate timing and pricing for team or bulk orders.
Ozone helps reduce bacteria and odour significantly. If odour persists, it may indicate deep-set contamination or damage that requires replacement. We'll work with you to assess and address any concerns.
Absolutely. Ozone is a proven, safe sanitization method when used properly. Your child's gear will be ready to use immediately after pickup.
