Philips ahead of new European tanning regulations

Eindhoven, the Netherlands - Philips is ahead of EU tanning regulations with the new range expansion, the Philips ConsistancyTM Class III tanning lamps. These new Class III tubes from the popular Philips CLEO ConsistancyTM range comply with the new European tanning regulations that take effect on 23 July 2007. The output of the lamps is consistent throughout the entire lifetime and on top of that, they give 30% more tanning results while staying within the regulations.
Since the new European tanning regulation will include UV radiation limits Philips reacted pro-active and developed the Philips ConsistancyTM Class III lamps that comply perfectly with these rules. Next to the known consistent output that makes this range so popular in the market, these new Class III lamps even offer an astonishing 30% improvement of tanning results. The unique phosphor in this lamp range emits an UV energy distribution, which has its highest output close to the maximum pigmentation of the human skin. This technology improves the tanning results from your sunbed significantly compared to other lamps with the same wattage. The new Class III lamps also offer consistent output during the entire 1000-hour lifespan. Whether the lamps are brand-new or almost up for replacement, you can always count on the same, consistent result. This saves you the hassle of adjusting tanning times.

Class 3 lamps are like taking a 12 minute VHR™ & using it for 3 minutes.

This could have a BRUTAL impact right here in the good old USA.

Look for the Anti Tan people in the USA to look at this closely. Not uncommon for them to pass similar laws in the USA as they so in other Countries. Keep a close eye on this one.

This could turn out to have a HUGE impact on your business in the future.
