PROSAFE Releases App to Help Consumers Tan Responsibly
In more than half of the sunbeds in tanning salons and similar facilities in Europe, the UV radiation emitted exceeds the legal limit of 0,3 W/m2. This can be concluded from the results of a Joint Action by market surveillance authorities from twelve European countries. The action also found that many tanning facilities fail to provide sufficient information on the risks of tanning and that individual guidance and tanning advice is frequently not given.
