Life Wear Technologies acquires TriCalm

NORTH KINGSTOWN, R.I. - Life Wear Technologies on Tuesday announced its acquisition of the TriCalm line of anti-itch products from Cosmederm Bioscience.



“The TriCalm brand is an excellent fit for our company,” stated Brad Waugh, CEO Life Wear Technologies.  “It is a natural extension of our product offering and allows us to leverage and strengthen our existing relationships with national and regional retailers. We’ll also continue to partner with Cosmederm, as our ultimate goal is to deliver new and innovative products to our end consumers.”



“Life Wear Technologies will be investing strongly in TriCalm brand media and marketing programs to drive in-store sales for our retail partners,”  added Albert Greer Jr., COO and president Life Wear.



The addition of TriCalm will expand Life Wear’s reach to over-the-counter medicine. Tricalm is a non-stroidal compound that provides fast and effective relief from minor skin irritation caused by poison ivy, insect bites and other skin conditions that cause itching, burning and stinging. The TriCalm line of products includes TriCalm Hydrogel, TriCalm Clinical Repair Cream and TriCalm Extra Strength Spray.



Life Wear is the manufacturer of CryoMAX Cold Therapy 8-Hour Reusable Cold Packs and the recently launched ThermalMAX Long Lasting Heat Packs. Life Wear also offers an expansive line of health supports, tapes and bandages.
