Tanning and Health

There is a regulation governing the maximum UV output of sunbeds. This is generally referred to as 0.3 and is approved by the EU and complies with all British and European consumer safety regulations.

A 0.3 tanning session delivers the same tanning effect as the mid-day Mediterranean summer sun but without the risk of burning.

0.3W/m2 is the amount of UV exposure that the EU’s Scientific Committee on Consumer Products (SCCP) set as the limit for effective irradiance. This limit was then added to the European and British standards relevant for sunbeds. A sunbed with a UV output above this level is deemed as ‘unsafe’. All our beds are guaranteed to be 0.3 compliant. This means that :

Your tan will be deeper and longer-lasting

The tanning process is kinder to your skin

The risk of over-exposure or burning is effectively eliminated

The benefits of sunbed use in a controlled environment are far reaching and include:-
