New 2018 Steamist brochure now available
Steamist, the UK supplier of luxury steam room solutions, has launched a new brochure outlining the wide range of products it has on offer to enhance the bathing experience, both physically and spiritually. The 28-page publication is presented on high gloss A4 paper, with high quality photography and a description of each product, though it can also be downloaded from Steamist’s website. The inner leaf provides brief background information on the company and the fact that steam bathing is very good for the user. Under Steamist’s strapline, ‘Relax, Restore and Renew,’ the company informs potential customers that steam soothes tired muscles, aids sleep and even helps relieve respiratory disorders – these being just a few of the very positive claims. The rest of the brochure
provides information on the various products that are available to create and enhance the steam bathing area, starting with a sizing guide for the steam generator itself, which is based on the cubic meterage of the steam room.
