On September 12, 2025, Shanghai - Driven by the "dual carbon" goal, China's sweat and steam room industry is accelerating its transformation towards green and low-carbon. According to the White Paper on Green Development of Sweat Steaming Room Industry in 2025 released by the China Building Materials Industry Association, the integrated design of photovoltaic power generation and sweat steaming rooms has reduced energy consumption by 55% per store, the waste heat recovery system has achieved self-sufficiency in bathing water, and the use of biodegradable filter materials to replace traditional activated carbon has reduced air purification costs by 40%.
Technological breakthroughs reshape the industry ecosystem
The improvement of localization rate of core components is the foundation of green transformation. By 2025, the self-sufficiency rate of key materials such as graphene heating film and nano silver ion disinfection device will exceed 80%, promoting a 22% reduction in the cost of new sweat steam room equipment. For example, the introduction of laser positioning assembly robots at a production base in Qingdao has enabled a daily production capacity of 320 sets per line, which is 13 times more efficient than manual operation and further dilutes costs through large-scale production.
The application of environmentally friendly materials has also become standard. Degradable bamboo fiber decorative panels occupy 60% of the market share, meeting the mandatory standards for formaldehyde emissions in the "Construction Specification for Sweat Steaming Room"; Air source heat pumps and solar heating systems replace traditional electric heating, reducing energy consumption and carbon emissions. Some companies even explore the "zero carbon sweat steam hall" model, achieving operational carbon neutrality through carbon trading mechanisms.
New scenarios for cultural tourism integration and community service expansion
The green concept is promoting the deep integration of sweat steam rooms with cultural tourism and community scenes. In ski resorts such as Changbai Mountain and Yabuli in Northeast China, the "sweat steaming+ice and snow tourism" model has achieved a winter facility utilization rate of over 92%; The Yangtze River Delta region has seen the emergence of "sweat steaming+genetic testing" services, which develop metabolic optimization plans through saliva sample analysis, with a single consumption exceeding 2000 yuan.
Community health service stations have become a new growth pole. 3000 new community health service stations across the country will be equipped with sweat steaming facilities, forming a "15 minute health circle". The micro sweat steaming chamber adopts a modular design and can be quickly deployed in old residential renovation projects. The daily service capacity of a single device exceeds 20 people, meeting the low-temperature far-infrared sweat steaming needs of the elderly population.
