Principles Of Nimbus Co

"Let's start from the beginning, tell us about the foundation of Nimbus Co?"

Essentially, my wife Su and I started Nimbus as a side hustle. We'd been together for 7 years and the first ideation on Nimbus came to us around January 2016. Su was working in a health clinic which offered infra-red saunas mostly as a recovery tool. Sue and I are both entrepreneurial so naturally, the brain wave came for us to start Nimbus Co. Nimbus Co was founded under the idea that prevention is better than the cure. When you look after yourself and do it on a regular basis, it will benefit you in the long run, and we've always thought about saunas as a tool for long term health.  

There are great studies about the benefits of infrared sauna technology. We loved the idea that we could create something that is altruistic in nature and give back to the community. It was a no brainer really. We thought if we could give back while helping people to be fit and healthy through infrared saunas, and develop a lifestyle brand that disrupted the health industry at the same time, that we'd be onto something. We were also conscious that infrared sauna alone is not necessarily the thing to change your world but can be used as a catalyst to welcoming your own wellness, which is our tagline. It's about finding balance within each individual.

When we first opened up the Bondi store, we knew it was a great location. Bondi is a progressive area and quite contemporary so people grasped the concept super easily. Locals there know about holistic health and are conscious of their health and wellbeing, and now a lot of them know about us, which is great. But we are always thinking about the larger population, there's still a long way to go to really educate the masses on the benefits of infrared saunas, and each bit counts.

What made you Choose Clearlight Infrared® Saunas?

We knew Clearlight Infrared® Saunas are one of the top-performing machines in the market, especially with the technology, safety and security. We were previously using another sauna brand that had a lot of issues. When Su met co-founder Sebastian in Byron Bay, she felt there was a great synergy between our organisations. The saunas themselves have the full spectrum. The machines are well put together, they come with good protection from EMF (Electromagnetic Fields) and tick all the boxes. The reliability of the machines has been really great and the Clearlight team are incredibly helpful. We went to Splendour in the Grass for a promotion, and we also did a pop up at the Paramount Hotel in Sydney, and the Clearlight team are always supportive, especially as we grow, really we're still a young business in many regards. I feel like we are aligned in our brand values and what we stand for, and since making the move it's been a really good fit for us.
