SUN PEARLS

Sunglasses for your body

A fully automatic sun-protection spray booth for the world's finest resorts — full-body, pharmaceutical-grade sunscreen in under 25 seconds, billed straight to the guest's room.

The problem

Sun protection fails at the exact moment it matters

Hand application under-doses.Most people apply far less cream than protection requires — and almost nobody covers their own back properly.
Reapplication gets forgotten.Poolside, nobody wants to stop, queue at the shop or rub cream in again. The result: burns and long-term skin damage follow.
Hotels want wellness without headcount.Luxury operators compete on guest-care amenities and image, but every new service normally means staff, mess and liability.

The Smart Booth

Step in – Rotate – Protected

The Sun Pearls Smart Booth sprays the whole body with premium sunscreen in under 25 seconds. A rotating floor, synchronised to a precision nozzle array, delivers the correct dose every time — no staff, no greasy hands, no missed spots. The booth self-washes after every guest.

How it works

Effortless, from the sunbed

Choose without movingGuests pick their creams and SPF factors from their mobile app whilst on their sunbed — or on the booth's panel.
Step onto the rotating floorThe booth automatically reads the selection from the mobile, adjusts to the guest's height, and starts.
A fine mist, under 25 secondsFull or selected body areas, evenly covered — including the back.
Back to the sun, protectedThe charge lands on the room bill automatically, like a bar order.

Only Sun Pearls

One body – Three factors – One cycle

Skin never tans evenly — shoulders burn while legs lag behind. The Smart Booth sprays your choice of different SPF factors on each body zone in a single pass: 50 on the back, 30 on the chest and 20 on the legs.

Parents select their child's protection in the app; the booth delivers it, and the child cannot override the choice. As the live UV index changes, guests receive a prompt on their mobile to reapply or step up a factor.

A connected platform

Every booth online, 24/7

Charge to room

Billing integrates with the hotel's system — by the time the guest steps out, the session is on their folio.

Live consumable levels

The server watches every tank and alerts the local team before anything runs low.

QR-verified refills

Each bottle is tracked from fill to spray — dilution or wrong-tank errors are instantly detected and reported automatically.

Self-washing hygiene

The booth rinses itself after every use, ready for the next guest without staff involvement.

Nightly self-diagnostics

Rotation speed, nozzle function and spray pressure are checked every night, automatically.

Synchronised spraying

The spray cycle locks to the rotating floor, so the booth always knows exactly which part of the body it is coating.

Proven with real guests

The queues formed on their own

Pilot deployments ran at pools, lakesides and resorts in Prague, Crete and Cyprus. Guests praised the ease, the cream quality and the fun of it — and luxury hotels and beach clubs in Dubai have shown serious interest. The engineering heritage runs deep. An earlier generation of booths was built in our Prague facility for different purposes and installed in the Czech Republic, Germany and Australia. The technology was protected by patents granted in the US, Europe, Russia and Australia.

The business model

Model hotels say YES to:

€1per month — the hotel's entire cost
  • Sun Pearls supplies the booth, the creams, the maintenance and a trained on-site ambassador.
  • NO hotel staff, NO capital outlay, NO operational burden.
  • Guests pay per session, charged to their room; the hotel shares the profit and gets the kudos.

Two further engines

  • Retail range: A developed OTC line inc: 3 encapsulated-SPF sunscreens – After-Sun and Bronzers – Skin Whitening, all produced to ISO standards in the Czech Republic using pharmaceutical-grade ingredients from Merck Pharmaceuticals Germany.
  • Sponsorship: The booth is a premium, high-visibility canvas at the busiest point of the resort, in places it is usually impossible to advertise. The booth’s large internal screen is ideal for premium sponsors such as soft drinks companies, mobile phones, cars, insurance and health supplements.
