2026 Massage Chair New Standards: Higher Requirements for Noise, Energy Efficiency and Classification

To promote the standardized and high-quality development of the massage chair industry, new industry standards have been implemented, bringing important changes in product classification, energy efficiency and noise control, which are closely related to consumers' purchase and use experience.
Key Standard Changes: First, the new standard adds a product classification system, dividing massage chairs into three levels: A, B and C, based on core indicators such as movement, noise, service life, chair frame and massage functions, helping consumers clearly distinguish product quality. Second, energy efficiency requirements are put forward: except for wireless and network-connected massage chairs, the standby and shutdown power must meet the requirements of QB/T 5359, and the energy efficiency limit value shall not be lower than Level Ⅲ. Third, the noise requirement is raised, changing the maximum noise limit from 62dB to 60dB, which greatly improves the comfort of use during daily relaxation.

Consumer Tips: When purchasing, you can ask merchants to provide the level certification of the new standard. Products that meet Level A have better performance and durability, while Level C products can only meet the basic use needs.
