AllerMates®, creators of colorful wristband, dog tags and lunch bags for kids with allergies just received approvals from Mom’s Choice Awards (MCA) and Parent Tested Parent Approved (PTPA), national organizations that choose the very best in children’s products, it was announced today by Andrew Eisenberg, President, Awearables LLC, parent company of AllerMates.
MCA Judges are especially
interested in products and services that help families grow emotionally,
physically and spiritually; are morally sound and promote good will; and are
inspirational and uplifting. PTPA
is
the leading product awards program with the largest parent-testing community and
seal of approval recognized worldwide.
Iris Shamus, a mother of a child with
multiple food allergies was frustrated by the lack of allergy-related
kid-friendly products so she took action and created AllerMates, a new line of
bright, fun, whimsical character-driven wristbands, dog tags and lunch boxes
that her son would happily embrace.
Parents of children with
allergies can now enjoy the safety and security of knowing their young ones are
better protected against unwanted allergens when they wear or use AllerMates
products away from home in places like school, daycare, parties, sleep-overs and
play dates.
AllerMates products are based
on 15 fun, original characters that represent the most common allergies: peanut,
nut, gluten/wheat, milk, egg, shellfish, penicillin, insect sting, latex,
pollen, fish, soy, sesame, cat and the newest - asthma. Shamus created
AllerMates, in part to help kids feel positive about their allergies.
AllerMates products are
hypo-allergenic, nickel and latex free and have passed rigorous safety standards
and testing. The wristbands are
adjustable and fit most children.
AllerMates products can be
purchased at www.allermates.com, www.diapers.com, independent retailers and in the seasonal aisle available now at
many Walgreens around the country until Nov. 1.
