Are Sunbeds safe to use in NZ:

The old, unsafe traditional sunbeds people remember; the ones with no UV compliance that often caused burns and skin damage, have thankfully been banned.

But today’s new-generation hybrid sunbeds, also known as collariums, are completely different. These combine red light therapy and gentle UV technology and are fully EU-compliant at a safe 0.3 W/m² UV level.

Older models didn’t meet those safety standards, but the modern ones do! Every reputable brand now produces UV-compliant equipment that’s proven safe when used correctly. At ECM Sun Lounge, every session starts with a skin assessment and contra-indication check by a qualified technician, ensuring the safest and most effective experience possible.

Technology has come a long way in the past decade, yet there’s still so much misinformation out there. It’s time to clear the stigma! Today’s tanning is safe, smart, and science-backed.
