Tec Labs’ vibrant new packaging for its Licefreee line of products is bound to stand out
on o drug store shelves. With a distinctive shade of purple as the centerpiece of the brand’s
re refresh, the company’s goal was to create an invigorating contrast among the sea of lice
p products, Tec Labs stated. Tec Labs also is looking to make the process of selecting a
tr treatment simpler for the growing number of consumers who speak Spanish, according to
th the company. The new container makes the existing bilingual language more prominent.
“We wanted to create a brand upgrade that appealed to new customers and not alienate
co consumers who are already loyal to Licefreee,” said Lisa Leverich, director of marketing at Tec
La Labs. “Our goal is to serve all families by offering a complete solution to head lice infestation.”
Tec Labs worked with Anton Kimball Designs, a leading design firm out of Portland, to
c create the new look. “These are true artists who create unique packaging that really jumps
off of the shelf,” Leverich said. Anton Kimball Designs previously has worked with brands as
va varied as Nordstrom and Almond Roca.
CEO and president of Tec Labs, Steve Smith, realized the makeover of a market-leading
b brand’s packaging needed to be treated with kid gloves. “Licefreee’s success has come
d directly from customer loyalty and word of mouth. So, we wanted to make sure we shook
th the tree without bruising the fruit,” Smith said.
The Licefreee brand consists of Licefreee Everyday shampoo, Licefreee gel and Lice-
fr freee spray instant head lice treatment. All three
p products contain sodium chloride,
or o salt, as the highly effective, non-
toxic active ingredient, according to
to the company.
th Wendy Langley, a single mother,
developed the original Licefreee gel in
d 1998 after a traumatic experience us-
1 ing a toxic lice product on her daughter.
in Her idea to kill lice using salt turned the
H lic
lice treatment segment on its head, ac-
co cording to Tec Labs. Licefreee has gone
on o to become one of the top selling non-
to toxic pediculocides in the world, accord-
in ing to the company. More information can
