Fifty years ago, the beneficial properties of the sun were made accessible to everyone in the world for the first time, regardless of location or time.The idea of ​​sunbathing without the sun in the sky was born. It began in a laboratory with the German inventor Friedrich Wolff, who possessed a profound knowledge and understanding of the vital and beneficial effects of sunlight on humans and researched it with passion.

Thanks to his invention of the “sun,” which could be integrated into a sunbed, sunlamps fulfill people’s need for sunlight and their desire for a tan. And they provide a soothing and relaxing effect on body and mind.
