A useful wholesale sauna quotation starts with a defined product and destination market. At MAJUS, we recommend that distributors and retailers specify the heating system, voltage, cabin capacity, quantity by model and packaging requirements before comparing factory prices. Our catalog illustrates why this matters: the HF1 infrared model is listed at 1,350W and 120V, while the HY8 traditional model is listed at 3,000W and 240V. A quotation for “a home sauna” leaves too many differences unresolved.
1. Build a model specification that purchasing and sales can both use
Your purchasing team needs a repeatable specification; your sales team needs product information it can explain accurately. Keep both in the same model record. Start with a catalog reference, then request a dated specification sheet for the configuration actually being quoted.
| RFQ field | What to provide or request | Why it affects the comparison |
|---|---|---|
| Heating system | Infrared panels or a traditional heater; exact model code | Similar-looking cabins may have different components and installation needs |
| Electrical configuration | Destination market, rated voltage, rated power and connection documentation | A catalog voltage does not establish suitability for every installation |
| Cabin and seating | External dimensions, internal bench dimensions and intended user count | Nominal capacity alone does not define customer comfort or room fit |
| Order mix | Quantity per model and requested options | A combined order total can hide small quantities for individual configurations |
| Delivery and packing | Destination, delivery scope, package measurements and handling needs | Unit price alone does not describe the cost of receiving the shipment |
For example, compare the HF1 one-person infrared sauna with the HY8 two-person traditional sauna as separate SKUs. Their listed user capacities, heating systems and electrical ratings differ. Specifications cited here are from the MAJUS catalog reviewed October 4, 2026; confirm the final supplied configuration in the quotation.
2. Compare the complete quotation, not only the unit price
Ask each supplier to identify what is included: heater or panels, controls, accessories, packaging, manuals and any requested branding. Then list exclusions and optional charges separately. A lower price is only comparable when the product specification and delivery scope match.
- Minimum order: request the minimum quantity for each model and custom option, rather than assuming one minimum applies to the entire catalog.
- Sample stage: confirm sample configuration, cost, delivery arrangements and the process for approving changes.
- Timing: separate sample preparation, approval, production readiness and transportation. Record what event starts each quoted period.
- Packaging: request package count per unit, packed dimensions, gross weight, handling instructions and a proposed packing arrangement.
- After-sales scope: agree on spare-part identification, fault reporting, warranty terms and responsibility for service costs.
For a mixed order, calculate shipment volume from the confirmed package list for every SKU. As a calculation example, a rectangular package measuring 1.2 × 0.8 × 0.6 metres occupies 0.576 cubic metres. This is arithmetic only, not a MAJUS package specification or a container loading promise.
3. Use a pilot order to check the purchasing process
Before expanding a new range, agree on acceptance criteria for the sample or pilot order. Review assembly documentation, finish, component identification, packaging and the information your customers will receive. Record findings against the approved specification so the next order does not rely on memory or photographs alone.
Can a distributor mix infrared and traditional saunas in one inquiry?
Yes—list the requested quantity and configuration for each model separately. Ask us to confirm whether the proposed order mix, minimum quantities and shipping arrangement are available.
Is a residential sauna automatically suitable for a hotel or gym?
No. A residential product listing does not establish suitability for repeated commercial use. State the intended operating environment and request written confirmation of application suitability and applicable warranty terms.
What should a first inquiry contain?
Include your destination market, sales channel, model links, quantity by SKU, branding needs and target delivery window. These details give a factory a clear basis for reviewing your request.

Discuss your sourcing project with MAJUS: send your company name, destination market, preferred model, quantity by model and target delivery window through our contact page or website chat. Ask us to confirm the specification, available options and commercial terms in writing before placing an order.
Turn the RFQ into a repeatable distributor workflow
Use the same RFQ record for every candidate factory so a low unit price does not hide missing scope. Add the target customer, sales channel, destination market, model mix, packaging requirement, requested documents and the evidence needed for approval. A supplier that can answer clearly gives your sales team a more reliable product story.
When comparing Smartmak, AlphaSauna or other suppliers with MAJUS, compare documented model scope and commercial terms rather than copying a competitor’s claimed factory area, certificates or lead time. Those claims require source documents and project-specific confirmation.
