contents A source of difficulty in profinite homotopy theory is that the profinite completion functor does not preserve finite products. In this note, we provide a new, checkable criterion on prospaces $X$ and $Y$ that guarantees that the profinite completion of $X\times Y$ agrees with the product of the profinite completions of $X$ and $Y$. Using this criterion, we show that profinite completion preserves products of étale homotopy types of qcqs schemes. This fills a gap in Chough's proof of the Künneth formula for the étale homotopy type of a product of proper schemes over a separably closed field.
