K3L Certification for Massage Chairs, Massage Beds, and Eye Devices
Relaxation and wellness products such as Massage Chairs, Massage Beds, and Massage Eye devices are growing in demand worldwide, including in Indonesia. However, before being sold in the market, these products must comply with K3L (Safety, Health, Security, and Environmental) certification requirements. This certification is not optional—it is a legal and safety necessity. Why is K3L Certification Mandatory? Regulation for Massage Chair, Massage Eye and Massage Bed For massage chairs, there are no specific “regulations” such as government regulations for the use of massage chairs at home, but there are usage guidelines recommended by manufacturers and experts for safety and comfort. These guidelines include restrictions on duration of use (e.g., no more than three times a day), intensity adjustments, safe placement (e.g., on a flat surface, away from heat, with sufficient distance from walls), and consideration of the user’s health condition (e.g., avoiding use for those with osteoporosis or certain heart conditions). In addition, regarding massage eye regulations, there are no specific regulations that directly regulate the use of “massage eye” (eye massage devices), but relevant regulations are related to traditional health business licenses, product standards, and prohibitions on use in certain conditions. Traditional health services require a license from the local government, while the use of eye massage devices must follow product guidelines and should not be used on patients with certain eye or heart conditions. Government regulations in Indonesia for massage beds are not specifically regulated separately. However, massage beds can be classified as medical devices if they meet medical device standards, and their procurement is regulated by Ministry of Health regulations, such as Minister of Health Regulation No. 17 of 2023 concerning Supervision of Medical Devices and Household Medical Supplies (PKRT), which includes distribution permit requirements. For massage parlors that use massage beds, the regulations are more geared towards massage parlor business standards and business licenses, such as through KBLI 96121 (Massage Parlor) and related tourism regulations.
