German-made tanning lamps: How did they become the industry’s “gold standard”?

1Views

As the “heart” of tanning equipment, the quality of the tanning lamps is crucial – it directly determines the tanning results and user experience, and is even more important for the salon’s reputation. As a leader in the tanning industry, Merican always prioritizes product quality, insisting on using original German-made tanning lamps and integrating them with innovative technology to provide customers with a safer, more efficient, and comfortable tanning experience!

 

01.Made in Germany

From a globally leading brand

The Merican tanning lamps, jointly developed with the German manufacturer, originate from Cosmedico, a founding brand under JW Holding GmbH (hereinafter referred to as the JW Group). As a pioneer in the tanning industry, the JW Group boasts over 45 years of professional experience and has become a global industry benchmark thanks to its superior light source quality and innovative technology.

German industry, built upon a century of accumulated experience, has developed a quality system centered on precision manufacturing, rigorous standards, and lasting durability. Merican tanning lamps, from raw material selection to every stage of production and processing, adhere to the stringent standards of German industry.

The lamp tubes utilize a special coated filter glass and a rare gas mixture formula. This glass possesses excellent light transmission, safety, and high-temperature resistance, ensuring efficient light transmission and stable operation of the lamp tubes. The rare gas mixture formula controls UV output fluctuations within ±2%, resulting in more uniform light irradiation and ensuring consistent results with each treatment, thus preventing issues such as uneven skin tone.

 

02.Precise light source ratio

Laying the foundation for high quality

Furthermore, Merican tanning lamps incorporate proprietary fluorescent technology developed by a German team.  Their unique fluorescent powder is not the typical white fluorescent powder found in ordinary fluorescent lamps, but rather a special powder capable of “spectrum conversion.” It absorbs some of the UVB radiation and converts it into gentler, longer-wavelength UVA, ensuring both the effectiveness of the tanning process and significantly reducing the risk of sunburn. This greatly enhances the comfort and safety of the entire tanning experience.

On the other hand, Merican tanning lamps precisely control the light source ratio down to the millimeter, completely eliminating harmful UVC rays and utilizing a golden ratio of 98% UVA + 2% UVB:

UVA rays have strong penetrating power, reaching deep into the skin to activate melanin cells and promote the even production of melanin, resulting in a natural bronze tan in a short period of time, while also making the tan deeper and longer-lasting; UVB rays act as a “synergistic enhancer,” ensuring a more abundant “source” of melanin synthesis, thus making the bronze tan more natural and full-bodied, with an overall more translucent and radiant texture.

03.Merican co-developed

Making tanning healthier and more effective.

Even more noteworthy is that Merican, as Cosmedico’s strategic partner and exclusive general agent in Greater China, has fostered deep collaboration between the two teams, continuously exploring innovative technologies and new application models.  This has endowed the original series of light sources with core technological advantages such as health benefits, collagen activation, and reduced risk of erythema, providing global users with multiple experiences including efficient tanning, healthy tanning, skin rejuvenation, and collagen-boosting tanning.
