The UCo Difference
We’ve built a thriving business on being a little different. So naturally there are many practices and areas of expertise that set us apart.
We are a full solutions provider.
We are able to provide support for everything from a full spa build to fulfilling a one-time need for a product.
We read labels.
We review and evaluate the label of every single item we sell to ensure it discloses ingredients accurately. We use the words “natural” and “organic” very carefully, as their use is vetted extremely carefully.
We train and educate.
We not only provide custom product training, but we also go above and beyond by offering advanced education to help our customers advance their careers while helping business owners reduce staff turnover. We aim to make the spa and wellness community better, advanced and innovative.
We are staffed by pros.
Many on our staff, including our call center representatives, are licensed professionals. They possess an extremely deep knowledge of our products and practices. Few other competitors can claim the same.
Timeline
Although Universal Companies has evolved and grown over the years, its aim and direction have remained consistent.
1982
Universal Companies started in 1982, when Marti Morenings and her father Dr. G. H. Morenings founded Universal Esthetics – a new company that began marketing a medical therapy unit designed by Dr. Morenings.
Universal Esthetics would continue to grow and add newly trademarked esthetic products to its lineup including furniture, equipment and supplies into the mid ‘80s.
1992
In 1992, Universal Esthetics published its first catalog, making it easy for estheticians to find everything they needed in one place. The '90s brought increased demand for spa equipment and supplies, so the company responded by developing hundreds of new products.
After considerable growth, Universal Esthetics changed its name to Universal Companies, better reflecting a commitment to an entire industry of spa professionals and establishing itself as “the one-source spa solution.”
Now
That growth continues today. Universal Companies is the leading single-source supplier to over 30,000 clients in the spa and wellness industry, offering a wide variety of products, supplies, equipment and education to help professionals manage and grow their businesses.
