St. Petersburg FL (December 17, 2009) – Biddiscombe International, a leader in the development and manufacture of spray tanning solutions, has expanded its spray tanning presence by becoming a distributor of HVLP equipment manufactured by Earlex of the UK and Apollo Sprayers of Vista CA.  The units are used to apply DHA solutions in an efficient, customizable process that is both technician and customer friendly.  Each HVLP or high volume, low pressure spray system is designed to apply DHA sunless tan solutions quickly with minimal overspray.  Roxie Cariere, Director of Sales, said that “DHA solution and related product sales grew significantly for us in 2009 and we expect the sunless UV-free tan market to be strong in 2010.  Having a complete equipment line covering all needs and price points is a natural extension for us to participate in the market’s growth.”

Biddiscombe is one of the oldest formulators of DHA spray tanning solutions in the tanning industry and offers a broad range of distinct sunless tan formulations to meet the specific needs of tanning professionals including its Honey and Nutmeg solutions at 95%+ organic and 100% natural.

 “The enhancement of our equipment program follows Biddiscombe’s introduction last year of the S4200 solution designed for use in Versaspa spray booths.” Technical Director Thomas Conde stated. “As equipment becomes more refined, so must the solutions we provide. It is important that in the creation of solutions, we take into consideration the equipment that will be used and formulate in a manner that takes full advantage of the strengths of that equipment.”

Cariere added “Our specialty is first and foremost the juice as DHA solution is often called.  Solid equipment and good solution lead to happy, tanned customers. Our goal is to meet all the needs of tanning professionals whether they are doing custom hand application with HVLP or airbrush applicators or are using spray booths such as those made by Versaspa and Mystic”.
