Elite High-Power Stand-Up Sunbed
The megaSun P9S is KBL’s flagship vertical stand-up cabin — a machine engineered to the absolute limit of what a commercial tanning bed can be. Developed in collaboration with Studio F.A. Porsche, the same design studio behind some of Porsche’s most celebrated automotive interiors, the P9S brings a level of visual drama and precision engineering that is simply unmatched anywhere in Scunthorpe. With 50 high-performance 200W body lamps, world-first SunSphere Leg tanners, and a 2,400-LED Matrix Lightshow exterior, stepping into the P9S is closer to stepping into a supercar than a sunbed.
The P9S doesn’t just tan faster. Every system inside it has been engineered to deliver a better quality tan, in a healthier way, with a level of comfort that makes every session feel like a luxury treatment.
50 high-performance body lamps running at up to 200W each make the P9S one of the highest-output stand-up sunbeds in the world. The extraSun configuration pushes UVB intensity specifically to accelerate melanin production and Vitamin D synthesis from the very first session.
The P9S pioneered the industry shift away from harsh high-pressure facial bulbs — lamps notorious for generating infrared heat that leaves skin feeling tight and red after sessions. In their place: 4 precision LED cassettes behind aspherical glass lenses.
Most sunbeds use standard red LEDs as a skincare afterthought. The P9S takes a fundamentally different approach with 40 intensive HyperRed Beauty Booster LEDs — high-intensity modules calibrated to a specific wavelength range for measurable skin results.
The exterior shell of the P9S is embedded with over 2,400 individual LEDs capable of running fluid, dynamic light animations across the entire machine. This is the Matrix Lightshow — a feature unique to the P9S that turns the bed itself into a living visual centrepiece for any salon. Light programs can be matched to the machine’s exterior colour or synced to create multi-zone animated sequences that make every session feel like an event.
This is what Studio F.A. Porsche brought to the P9S: not just aesthetics, but a philosophy that the machine should be as impressive to look at as it is to use. The same thinking that defines a Porsche interior — precision, drama, and an obsessive attention to the sensory experience — is embedded in every surface, every curve, and every light on the P9S chassis. This is not a sunbed that hides in the corner of a room. It owns it.
The P9S replaced every high-pressure facial lamp with a precision LED cassette system, and then went further — solving the problem that stand-up sunbed users have complained about for decades. The shins. The insteps. Those areas that simply never tan evenly on a vertical bed. The P9S fixed it.
Together, these five systems address every limitation of conventional stand-up tanning in one machine. No more patchy faces from harsh high-pressure lamps. No more untanned shins. No more dry, tight skin after a UV session. The P9S is the first stand-up sunbed that genuinely tans the whole body — evenly, safely, and with your skin in a better condition at the end than when you started.
KBL and Studio F.A. Porsche didn’t stop at tanning performance. Every detail of the P9S experience — the air, the sound, the scent, the controls — has been engineered to make each session genuinely pleasurable from start to finish.
A high-performance climate control unit maintains exact, user-selected temperature levels across the entire tanning tunnel and the base acrylic panel. Not just a fan — a full Climatronic system that keeps the cabin consistently cool regardless of how hard the lamps are working.
Two completely drip-free atomising jets spray an ultra-fine water mist mid-session to revitalise skin and regulate temperature. Paired with a customisable aroma diffusion system, the typical “hot lamp” smell is replaced entirely by a spa-quality fragrance of your choice.
A fully integrated acoustic system featuring digital sound processing delivers spatial audio inside the tanning cabin. Pair your phone via Bluetooth and stream your own music, or select from built-in ambient soundscapes — all adjustable from the interior touchscreen without breaking your session.
A clear, friendly voice guide walks you through every feature of the P9S step by step — adjusting airflow, activating mist, changing sound modes — so you never have to read a screen or fumble with controls mid-tan. First-timers feel confident. Regulars appreciate the seamless flow.
An inductive charging pocket inside the bed keeps your phone powered up while you tan and stream. Place it down, close the door, and walk out with both a deeper tan and a fully charged device.
An Intelligent Control exterior touchscreen lets you configure your full session before you step in — fan speed, mist level, sound, aroma. The interior Easy Control display is positioned directly above your head for zero-effort, zero-confusion adjustments during the session itself.
