An agency and development of a brand of Tanning Accelerators back in 2004 was our launching pad into servicing the solurium industry, with the international rise in popularity of Sunless Tanning, our core product range soon expanded to include these, and thus Combined Tanning Supplies was born.

Holding a strong belief that the strategic alignment of Sunless Tanning services to the beauty sector was necessary to ensure control of quality & service within New Zealand.

“Anyone can set up and operate a sunless tanning business, however we have grave concerns that some entering this industry do not possess basic or fundamental knowledge of hygiene, skin health & customer respect or service, when a client is exposed to someone without the basic skill set there is potential for serious mistreatment, which could have a detrimental & lasting effect on this industry.”

With 90% of its customer network beauty salons and spa’s, Combined Tanning Supplies soon evolved into C.T.S. “We do so much more than tanning supplies now”.  

Creating a strong provider to the beauty sector, based upon a simple ethos: “We are not Beauty Therapists, we are business people who specialize in procurement of product & its distribution, we pride ourselves on servicing our customer network and meeting their needs; if our customers need something we will find it, and when they order it we will do everything in our power to ensure they receive it promptly.”  

C.T.S. now offers an extensive range of beauty supplies, “When we are asked for a product which we do not have, our first step is always to research the needs which that product must meet and any shortfalls or limitations that could limit that products function. This way we know we are only providing products which suit the purpose of use, and we know that the products we have will meet the needs of the beauty industry. We don’t add products unless we are asked to, which gives us the benefit of only stocking products which we know are required –  our “organically” grown range means we have products to meet a demand, as apposed to creating a demand for products.”  

With a strong focus on providing cost effective solutions, C.T.S. has enjoyed tremendous support from its rapidly expanding customer network, “operating as a “great” distributor provides the basis of a two way relationship, we work for, and with our customers, & in turn we get tremendous support, numerous referrals & “great” customers."   

The introduction of our eBay store has allowed us to deliver our unique blend of service to customers in every corner of the globe. We have overy 1,500 inventory items items, so please feel free to contact us if you require something not listed within this store.

C.T.S. is a proud member of The Association of Beauty Therapists NZ.
