Sauna Ice Bucket
A sauna ice bucket is a container, typically made of wood, stainless steel, or plastic, used in conjunction with a sauna for the practice of contrast therapy – alternating between heat exposure in a sauna and cold exposure, often via cold water immersion or application.
Material:
- Wood: Traditionally crafted from wood, often cedar, pine, or spruce. Wood provides insulation and a natural aesthetic. Requires maintenance to prevent cracking and bacterial growth.
- Stainless Steel: Durable, hygienic, and easy to clean. Does not require the same maintenance as wood but can get very cold to the touch.
- Plastic: Lightweight and affordable, but less durable and may not provide the same level of insulation as other materials.
Purpose:
The primary purpose of a sauna ice bucket is to hold ice water for use in cold plunges or for pouring over the body during or after sauna sessions. This facilitates rapid cooling, triggering physiological responses believed to offer various health benefits.
Function:
- Vasoconstriction: Cold water exposure causes blood vessels to constrict, reducing inflammation and swelling.
- Increased Circulation: Following the initial constriction, blood vessels dilate, promoting increased blood flow and oxygen delivery.
- Endorphin Release: Cold exposure stimulates the release of endorphins, which have mood-boosting and pain-relieving effects.
- Reduced Muscle Soreness: The contrast in temperature can help reduce muscle soreness and fatigue.
- Potential Immune System Boost: Some proponents believe contrast therapy can strengthen the immune system.
Usage Scenarios:
- Post-Sauna Cool-Down: Immediately after a sauna session, individuals may immerse themselves in the ice bucket or pour water over their body to rapidly lower their core temperature.
- Intermittent Cooling: Some individuals alternate between short sauna sessions and ice bucket dips multiple times during a single session.
- Cold Plunge: Larger buckets or tubs are used for full-body immersion.
- Athletic Recovery: Athletes use ice buckets to aid in muscle recovery after intense training.
Common Types:
- Traditional Wooden Buckets: Often handcrafted with a handle and a spout for easy pouring. Vary in size from small buckets for face splashes to larger buckets for pouring over the body.
- Stainless Steel Buckets: Typically cylindrical or rectangular, available in various sizes. May include a lid to maintain water temperature.
- Plastic Buckets: Often used as a more affordable option, typically with a handle.
- Insulated Buckets: Designed to maintain water temperature for longer periods.
- Cold Plunge Tubs: Larger containers specifically designed for full-body immersion, often with built-in filtration and temperature control systems.
Based on the provided information, “sauna ice bucket” can be classified under the following HS codes:
- 3923900012: This HS code covers articles for the conveyance or packing of goods, of plastics; stoppers, lids, caps and other closures, of plastics. Specifically, it refers to other buckets and pails, with or without lids or other closures, having a capacity of less than 11.36 liters (3 gallons). Given that a sauna ice bucket typically falls within this size range and is made of plastic, this is a relevant classification. The total tax rate is 58.0%, comprising a 3.0% basic tariff and a 25.0% additional tariff, increasing to 30.0% after April 2, 2025.
- 3926901000: This HS code covers other articles of plastics and articles of other materials of headings 3901 to 3914, specifically other buckets and pails. If the sauna ice bucket is made of plastic and doesn’t fall under the more specific classification of 3923900012, this HS code is applicable. The total tax rate is 40.9%, consisting of a 3.4% basic tariff and a 7.5% additional tariff, rising to 30.0% after April 2, 2025.
- 6914908000: This HS code covers other ceramic articles. If the sauna ice bucket is made of ceramic, this HS code applies. The total tax rate is 60.6%, including a 5.6% basic tariff and a 25.0% additional tariff, increasing to 30.0% after April 2, 2025.
Please note that the applicable HS code depends on the material of the sauna ice bucket. If the bucket is made of plastic, either 3923900012 or 3926901000 may be applicable, depending on the specific characteristics of the bucket. If it is made of ceramic, 6914908000 is the appropriate classification.
