Buying a Sunbed, Collagen Bed, or Wellness Unit is a big Investment. There are alot of things to consider. 

Quality VS Price.

Its pretty simple you do get what you pay for. The cheap Chinese units are ok for a while but who is going to service your beds. No one in Australia will touch a piece of equipment that does not have an electrical certificate. 

25 Years in Business Vs Small Start ups

We have heard it a thousand times, or i called the other guy and I never got any response - he just disappeared. Or i paid the deposit and had to wait for months before my unit arrived. 

Solaire has been trusted by the largest salons when the industry was going and now you can trust us to provide expert service to you. We have been in the industry for over 25 years. 

European Beds Vs China 

Again its pretty simple - think high quality European Beds (think FERRARI/BMW/PORCHE) vs Chinese beds. The European beds we supply have been made by the industries best - Hapro for over 30 years. The Chinese units only came onto the market a couple of years ago, and we receive alot of calls about the beds melting and breaking. 

Electrical Safety, ISO 9001 Certified ( Hapro Beds) VS Not Complaint to Australian Standards ( China).

These units are going into your homes and salons, so you need to make sure they are complaint to Australian electrical standards. If not you could risk voiding your insurance. 

Hapro beds are The Hapro equipment are manufactured and tested to EN standards for Low-Voltage

Directive – EN50366:2003, En60335:2002, and EN60335-2:2003. The Hapro equipment are manufactured and tested to EN standards for Electro-Magnetic

Compatibility – EN61000-6:2001, En55022:1998, and EN61000-6:2001

Why is this important?

This is important because these electrical standards comply with Australian standards.This means qualified technicians and qualified electricians are able to work on these beds. Chinese made beds do not come with an Electrical Certificate of Compliance meaning if something goes wrong legally qualified technicians are not allowed to work on these beds.
