Metronome Inc. (Head Office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Koichi Wagatsuma), operator of “Sauna Cloud,” and KDDI Corporation (Head Office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Makoto Takahashi), operator of “au Wellness,” have begun offering special benefits to au Wellness members to make it easier for them to introduce saunas via Sauna Cloud.

▼ About Sauna Cloud

Sauna Cloud is Japan’s largest leasing and rental service for sauna equipment and ganbanyoku (stone spa) units. Offering over 500 types of sauna and stone spa equipment, options range from home saunas that can be easily installed indoors, barrel saunas for outdoor setups, tent saunas for enhancing outdoor activities (such as camping), steam saunas, sauna stoves, showers, bathtubs, and stone spa units. All items are available for rent with free shipping.

■ Enjoy a home sauna with no initial cost, free shipping, and only a monthly fee

Whether installing a sauna or stone spa at home, or opening a training gym or sauna facility, there’s no need to pay the typically high equipment purchase cost. You can easily start with an affordable monthly fee.

With many entrepreneurs now opening training or sauna facilities, Sauna Cloud also focuses on startup support. As Japan’s largest sauna equipment rental service, Sauna Cloud offers the industry’s first subscription model—no loans, no credit checks, and no financing—making it easy to turn homes or facilities into saunas.

■ No depreciation burden, with the ability to expense the full monthly fee

Traditionally, sauna equipment was subject to 5-year depreciation, preventing full expensing in the first year and impacting facility management. With Sauna Cloud, the entire monthly fee can be expensed, providing greater financial flexibility. This makes it convenient for any scenario—from new equipment installation and custom builds to stove replacements.

■ One-stop service from assembly and installation to dismantling and removal

Sauna Cloud handles everything from assembly and installation to dismantling and removal. From product delivery to pickup at the end of rental, we manage the entire process to reduce the burden on customers. For corporate clients, we can also handle construction during opening, including fully custom installations.
