Smart move from Fashionizer Spa

Fashionizer Spa has created a new jacket specifically for spa use. Designed to be worn by reception staff and managers, the Azla jacket is made from the company’s flexible cotton performance fabric. The clothing supplier designed the Azla in response to client requests, citing a growing trend for therapists to greet clients in jackets before starting a treatment. It features a simple tie-front and can be purchased in navy as a stock garment.

A glass act from Küng Sauna

Switzerland-based sauna manufacturer Küng Sauna has unveiled Ovola, a newly patented sauna with a rounded, profile-free glass front. The curve has been designed to contrast with the sauna’s mitred corners, horizontal slat panelling and squared stainless steel parts. Matching trim and covers can be manufactured to allow the sauna to occupy any space, opening up bespoke design possibilities. Küng Sauna offers a number of other stylish spa solutions for steamrooms, whirlpools, solariums, showers and basins and relaxation areas.

Italian design duo create Klafs special editions

Italian designers Matteo Thun and Antonio Rodriguez have created a sauna and steamroom for Klafs, which complement one another (see above).

The front and anterior side walls of the sauna are made from floor-to-ceiling glass to flood the inside with natural light.

Meanwhile, the designers’ vision for the steamroom was to “create heaven on earth” and white is used throughout to represent innocence (right). The front is made from matt glass and features large, opaline panes and slender viewing panels, while the rear side walls are designed with a waterproof quartz agglomerate and continue the graphic design of the glass front. Lights in the ceiling create the impression of sun rays flooding into the space.

Regenerative skin treatment from AW Lake

Singapore-based spa firm AW Lake has teamed up with a number of specialists to create a non-invasive machine for regenerative skin treatments. Pure TDA treatments are designed to create protein-rich deposits in the skin’s deepest layers, in order to stimulate cell division and provide the building blocks to repair damaged structures of the skin. Over time, this smooths the skin and reduces deep and fine wrinkles. The TDA machine was developed by Germany’s MedDRop Technology, while Switzerland-based Arivine Pharma developed the patented substance used in the treatments.

Spa treatments go mobile with Coola Cart

Spa consultants WTS International, equipment company Living Earth Crafts and sun skincare brand Coola have teamed up to design a mobile point-of-sale display that creates a platform to bring spa treatments poolside as well as to bounce business back to the spa and drive retail.

The cart has an easy access locking storage compartment, a product stability tray for secure mobility and presentation and a UV protective umbrella. There’s also a freezer compartment for iced towels and chilled sunscreens in addition to a cart cover for storage and protection.

“The purpose of this venture was to extend the luxury services of the spa to the outdoors in a distinctive, attractive and mobile way to drive sales,” said Melissa Mao, vice president of sales for Coola.

The products include creams for the face, body, and lips in lotions and spray form in addition to soothing after-sun treatments.

It’s been written by Dubai-based Sally Hewerdine, owner of the Spotlight On Spa & Wellness training and recruitment company.
