Carlsbad, CA – April 10, 2012 – Colantotte, manufacturer of award winning magnetic and negative ion technology, announces a new branding direction in the United States – transitioning from Trion:Z to Colantotte.
According to Colantotte International CEO, Toru Kamatari, “In the United States, consumers, athletes and retailers have known us as Trion:Z. The fact is that we have always been part of Colantotte Co., Ltd., but we were acting as the U.S. distributor for Colantotte under the Trion:Z brand name. We are now officially the U.S. office of Colantotte and are operating as the international arm of the company. As a result, we have made the decision to transition the branding message for new products from Trion:Z to Colantotte. All new products will feature the contemporary Colantotte company logo.”
In late 2011, Trion:Z launched the CO Vault, a new website which showcases jewelry pieces from the Colantotte line of products. These luxurious pieces were once only available from the “vault” of the Colantotte parent company in Japan. Pieces, such as the Magtitan Palette and the TAO necklace with CO pendant are part of the stunning new designs from Colantotte’s selection of captivating and elegant jewelry pieces for both men and women.
The company also developed several new Colantotte products including a new athletic Flex silicone wristband which features the same water resistant properties found in its popular Active™ Series wristband; The Elite Necklace with CO Pendant that has many of the same characteristics as the exclusive TAO Necklace; The Color Palette that emulates the aesthetic lines and structure of the Magtitan Palette; and The Multi Supporter Series which includes supportive gear directed at the waist, knee and elbow.
“In addition to our latest Colantotte product introductions in the United States, we have experienced exciting successes in our marketing and promotional efforts in the entertainment and golf industries,” added Kamatari. “Our new branding strategy has allowed us to become involved in a wider variety of opportunities to expand our brand awareness globally.”
Most recently, Colantotte was selected by Marvel to be involved in Marvel’s The Avengers movie in theaters May 4, 2012. Colantotte has created the exclusive limited edition Magtitan Neo Legend bracelet which is worn by Tony Stark (Iron Man) played by Robert Downey Jr. in this new movie. The stylish design of the Magtitan Neo Legend features an elegant combination of pure titanium and carbon fiber.
Colantotte also participated in the acclaimed GBK Luxury Gift Lounge in honor of the 84th Annual Academy Awards at the W Hotel in Hollywood, CA February 24-26, 2012. Colantotte’s products including the Magtitan Neo Legend, Tao Necklace, and Planet Necklace were distributed to Hollywood’s hottest stars including Melissa McCarthy, AnnaLynne McCord, and Nat Faxon, winner for Best Writing, Adapted Screenplay, for “The Descendents”.
In the golf industry, Colantotte sponsored athletes include top PGA tour professionals Rory McIlroy, Rickie Fowler and Ryo Ishikawa and LPGA tour professional, Brittany Lincicome. Rory, Rickie and Ryo wore Colantotte products in their quest to win the 2012 Masters Tournament at the famed Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, GA. Rory wore the company’s signature Tao Necklace as he won the U.S. Open in 2011 and Ryo wore the necklace while playing at the prestigious President’s Cup in 2011.
Colantotte products are approved as medical devices by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare. They all feature a unique Alternating North-South Polarity Orientation (ANSPO™) technology to create a larger magnetic field flow.
