About us

I am dr. Kálmán Peller, the founder of our family business. I am dealing with health boosting and disease preventing appliances and equipment since 1995.

It is my personal mission to offer an alternative to medicines for disease prevention, health state improvement and reducing the symptoms of already existing diseases.

I would like to make the most people experience that the Sunlighten saunas are the most versatile health protecting devices.
I am Kálmán Peller, Jr. I am observing my father’s entrepreneur activity since my childhood, I am involved in the management of the company since 2007. My goal is to make the Sunlighten saunas more widely known, because I believe that their usage prevents the development of most diseases.

It fills me with joy that we are marketing a product which – based on the feedback we receive – has helped a lot of people already. With the ever-growing number of our partners, even more people can experience the positive effects of using a Sunlighten sauna.
I am Bálint Kátay, M.Sc., MBA, married to dr. Peller Kálmán’s daughter, Magdolna. I am involved in the strategy and international communications.

As a middle-aged father of three beautiful young children, health, disease prevention and relaxation have become important topics in my life. I am very excited to advocate a brand that is innovative, modern and delivers to its credo.

My goal is to make people aware of the benefits of Sunlighten’s exceptional quality products in the CEE region and beyond.

Seeing Lives Transformed Firsthand

Infrared therapy changed Sunlighten founder Jason Lincoln Jeffers’s life. For more than a decade, Jason suffered from chronic illness and relied on traditional medicine to manage his condition. It was only when he discovered infrared saunas that he truly began to heal. Jason founded Sunlight Saunas (now Sunlighten) in 1999 to make more people aware of the remarkable healing power of infrared that he personally experienced. Today the company continues to innovate even greater technologies with the goal of bringing products that empower wellness into homes and businesses around the world. Read Jason’s story here.
