Spapliance to provide state-of-the-art appliances for the Spa and Salon industry
Posted By Journalist on November 29, 2010
February 2011 will see the launch of a new company, Spapliance, and its first appliance, The Orb. Spapliance is the brainchild of Jane Scrivner and Kevin McWilliams who together have over 50 years combined experience in the Spa and Appliance manufacturing industry.
Spapliance will be providing state-of-the-art appliances for the Spa and Salon industry. Five appliances are currently planned and patents have been applied for. Each appliance answers an established need in the industry and each one makes the salon and spa industry more sophisticated and in line with the high end, high design, high performance requirement.
The first appliance that Spapliance will launch is called The Orb. The Orb is a portable, continuous heat chamber for warming skincare products.
The Orb addresses one of the fundamental needs and gaps in therapeutic treatment delivery: the ability to heat product, accurately and safely and to maintain the temperature continually and perfectly for up to one hour, so that every brush full of product is perfect every time and at every stage of the treatment and anywhere in the room.
The Orb, heats product within 10 minutes to a perfect delivery temperature and, through a patented applied process, the Orb, once removed from the heat source, is totally portable and maintains this perfect temperature, brush load after brush load, whenever and wherever for up to an hour. It has indicator lights to let the therapist know when it needs to be re heated – but within a standard body or facial treatment 60 minutes of perfection is – well perfection.
The Orb came about because there was a need for something for use by professional therapists when delivering facials and body treatments where warming the product is required. Currently, as soon as any heat source is removed or the product is removed from the heat source (hot towel cabinets, bowls resting on warm water, baby bottle warmers etc.) the temperature reduces – meaning the first brush-full is lovely, the second is okay but the following applications are relatively cool and so the experience deteriorates.
The Orb solves this and makes the client experience delicious from start to finish. It also means the therapist can concentrate on their client rather than spending ‘head space’ remembering when, where and how to keep their product warm.
The team at Spapliance also anticipate that as well as solving a ‘need’, the Orb will create a ‘demand’ for treatment delivery to be ‘upgraded’ with ‘Warm orb technology’ – even down to the simple oil application in Swedish massage, currently a ‘function’ within the treatment, with ‘Warm Orb technology’ oil application becomes a therapeutic experience in itself.
The Orb from Spapliance will be available from March 2011 at a cost of 145 (ex. VAT).
In June 2011, Spapliance will also be launching a personal version of The Orb into the retail market under the ‘Jane Scrivner’ label using Jane Scrivner products.
