For Immediate  Release




 




Allergy-Conscious Mom Takes  Action 




With  AllerMates®–New Line of Kid-Friendly Products Launches In May for  Summer Travel and Camp




 




 Parents,  Care-Givers, Camp Counselorsand Kids Get Comfort and  Security




 




 




 




Montvale, NJ (May 7, 2012)— 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 camp, summer travel, school, daycare,  parties, and sleep-overs.  AllerMates launches in May just in  time for summer travel and camp preparations.




 




AllerMates products are based on  14 fun, original characters that represent the most common allergies: peanut,  nut, gluten/wheat, milk, egg, shellfish, penicillin, insect sting, latex,  pollen, fish, soy, sesame and cat. The characters and product line was created  by Iris Shamus, Founder and CEO of AllerMates, in part to help kids feel  positive about their allergies.   




 




“No matter how many forms I  signed or how many times I spoke to the teacher the inevitable happened” states  Iris Shamus, AllerMates Founder.  “My son and another allergic  classmate were offered food they weren’t supposed to have.  It  didn’t go well. So, I set out to create something more personalized so that a  camp counselor, caregiver or teacher would always be aware of his allergies,”  continues Shamus.  “AllerMates wristbands gave me a sense of  comfort and security I couldn’t have without them.  




 




Even with posters like nut-free  zone or dairy-free zone around a classroom, AllerMates is designed to present a  more personalized, visual representation of specific allergies. When a child  raises his or hand or carries an AllerMates lunch bag there is that distinctive  visually appealing character as a constant reminder to be on  alert.




 




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.  The AllerMates Gang characters  are:




P. Nutty (Peanut  Allergy)




Nutso (Nut  Allergy)




Professor Wheatley (Gluten /  Wheat Allergy)




Pint (Milk  Allergy)




Eggie (Egg  Allergy)




Crabby (Shellfish  Allergy)




Super-Cillin (Penicillin  Allergy)




Bizzy (Insect Sting  Allergy)




Dr. Strangeglove (Latex  Allergy)




Drift (Pollen Allergy)
 Detective Fin (Fish Allergy)




Soy Cool (Soy  Allergy)




Teeni Tahini (Sesame  Allergy)




Nine (Cat  Allergy)




 




The AllerMates website  (www.allermates.com)  offers both parents and children easy to read and understand tips, facts and  general information about allergies as well as lots of fun games and activities  based on the line of AllerMates characters.  The website also  has a fully functional social community allowing its members free and easy  interaction and sharing of the latest blogs, news, videos and information within  the allergy community. You can meet the AllerMates Gang there and get the back  story on each character as well as fun tips (did you know a peanut isn’t  actually a nut … it’s a legume). 




 




AllerMates products can be  purchased at www.allermates.com,  at Amazon.com and at independent retailers throughout the U.S.as  well as stores in Canada,United Kingdom, Portugaland South  America.  Look for AllerMates  products at national retailers this summer.

Allergy  Facts:




Food allergies among children  jumped 18 percent from 1997 to 2007. One out of every 25 children, or 5.9  million, has a food allergy, according to a study published last year in  "Pediatrics," the journal of the AmericanAcademyof  Pediatrics.  Of those children, nearly 40 percent have a  history of severe reactions. About 15 percent of all allergic reactions occurred  at school. In 2010 researchers found that 8% of children under age 18 in the  United Stateshave at  least one food allergy.




About  AllerMates:  




AllerMates is a registered DBA  of Awearables, LLC, a Montvale, New  Jerseycompany.  The  company is privately held and counts Benjamin Shamus (age 8) , VP of  Incentivizing the CEO, among its employees. For information about AllerMates  products call 866.245.1370 or email  info@allermates.com.
