Encore Brands Releases “Lemongrass Farms,” a Family of Moisturizing & All-Natural Insect Repellents with the Promise of “Zero Mystery Ingredients”

Encore Brands, a manufacturer out of Cartersville, GA. has entered the all-natural market with an exciting new take on the common insect repellent. With zero “mystery” ingredients and an all-around elevated bug spray experience, the new brand is making headway in mass retail and grocery chains ahead of the official launch in 2023.

CARTERSVILLE, GA. (PRWEB) OCTOBER 26, 2022

Lemongrass Farms brings a breath of fresh air to the insect repellent market with three all-natural formulas, “TREK,” “TREK for Kids,” and “SCRAM!,” with the latter being a zone treatment that keeps flies away from outdoor dining areas.

“TREK” and “TREK for Kids” are at the forefront of the offering, which are personal insect repellents that do more than simply keep mosquitos away. According to Encore Brands, these “thoughtfully crafted” and 100% bio-based formulas are produced in small batches with ultimate quality control and user experience in mind.

“TREK and TREK for Kids are much more than just another all-natural insect repellent,” said Jeff Moreau Jr., VP of Encore Brands.

“Most of us grew up with the legacy products that utilize pesticides (such as DEET) as active ingredients. Although many people are now seeking all-natural alternatives, natural repellents often fall short in user experience, too. Many ‘all-natural’ products, although DEET-free, are often emulsified in soybean oil or isopropyl alcohol. This isn’t the best approach, as these formulas will leave your skin dry and/or greasy. We’ve created water-based formulas that employ food-grade essential oils as active ingredients. Furthermore, we’ve added other plant-based ingredients that moisturize, soothe, and cool your skin. These thoughtful features leave your skin feeling refreshed, rather than sticky, dry, or greasy. The ‘Super Chillin’ Lemon Mint’ aroma is awesome, too.”

Moreau Jr. continued, “The insect repellent market is certainly competitive and saturated with both legacy (DEET) products and all-natural options alike. However, it’s also stagnant. We saw an opportunity to take botanical repellents to the next level, where they can truly thrive to their full potential. A big part of that is certainly the formulas themselves, their efficacy, and how they appeal to people’s senses, but also the BOV continuous spray packaging. It’s a big plus for both consumers and the environment.”

BOV or “bag on valve” continuous spray technology is the greener alternative to aerosol sprays. BOV cans are propelled by clean, compressed air rather than liquid hydrocarbon propellants. It is 100% sustainable, recyclable, and offers continuous spray application at 360° (upside-down).

Moreau Jr. closes with a noteworthy promise:

“We promise that these products will not only keep bugs away but also that they are no more (or no less!) than what we claim in the ingredients list. The ‘not-so-mad’ scientists over here have created three wonderful formulas for you and the ones you love. You don’t need pesticides on your skin to repel insects. You’re going to love the way these products smell, feel, and keep you bite-free. It’s the first insect repellent you’ll truly love to use. We also have exciting plans to donate profits to the Bee & Butterfly Habitat Fund, a non-profit organization that creates habitats for our dwindling bee and butterfly population. More to come on that soon.”

Lemongrass Farms’ TREK, TREK for Kids, and SCRAM! will be available nationwide in Q1 of 2023.

Encore Coatings Announces Latest Launch, REJŪV, is Now Available in LOWE’S Stores

By Jeff Moreau • 13 Oct, 2022

CARTERSVILLE, GA. (PRWEB) JULY 25, 2022 Encore Coatings, a manufacturer of many home improvement brands ranging from household cleaners to high-performance exterior coatings, has announced they have reached an agreement to supply their latest product, REJŪV, to over 600 LOWE’S locations. REJŪV is a revolutionary new product for enhancing and protecting asphalt surfaces. This pigment-free, bio-based treatment rejuvenates worn, tired-looking asphalt surfaces within minutes. Unlike other products for asphalt maintenance, REJŪV is an eco-friendly alternative that contains zero petroleum, tar, or flammable solvents. Users simply spray REJŪV onto their asphalt surfaces to instantly restore the color and provide up to 12 months of protection. Co-Founder, Jeff Moreau Jr. had the following remarks: “REJŪV brings an entirely new, DIY approach to asphalt maintenance. Historically, if you wanted to make asphalt look better, your options included topical tar-based seal coatings, or re-paving the asphalt entirely which requires skilled labor and commercial grade equipment. Seal coatings are essentially film-forming, petroleum-based ‘paints’ which can eventually peel and become unsightly. Additionally, asphalt replacement is often cost-prohibitive" says Moreau Jr. “REJŪV, however, reacts internally with the latent petroleum within the existing, faded asphalt. It briefly re-emulsifies the asphalt into a liquid state, which then allows REJŪV to deposit high-performance additives into the asphalt. This first-to-market chemistry restores the color and augments the asphalt itself, which eliminates the possibility of future film delamination. REJŪV is formulated with plant derivatives and contains zero pigments, tar, or flammable solvents - and the best part is, you simply spray it out of a typical garden sprayer and watch the magic unfold. It won’t discolor surfaces around the home, nor kill grass, and requires virtually zero surface preparation.” Moreau Jr. concludes with a notable claim: “During the last year of testing, we’ve seen evidence that REJŪV in fact hardens asphalt and prevents raveling (disintegration and aggregate loss), therefore preserving the surface. It’s truly the easiest, and most sensible way to restore tired asphalt, we’re extremely excited about REJŪV and our ongoing partnership with LOWE’S.” LOWE’S stores will begin carrying REJŪV across the northeastern and upper midwestern United States as soon as August 2022. REJŪV will join other Encore Coatings products on LOWE’s shelves such as their bestselling COOL! Pool Deck Coating.

Encore Coatings Announces New Corporate Umbrella, “Encore Brands”

By Jeff Moreau • 13 Oct, 2022

The manufacturer of DIY and Lifestyle products announces its new identity of “Encore Brands” to better reflect their diverse brand catalog and new contract packaging division. Encore Coatings, an established manufacturer with a range of best selling products throughout big box stores and 5 star “Amazon Choice” listings has announced that they are now operating under a new corporate umbrella, “Encore Brands”. This incorporation comes after much consideration regarding the increasingly diverse product line and the future of the company as a whole. Encore Coatings, LLC was founded in 2010 as a modest family-owned business with a passion for creating high-quality protective coatings for concrete and pressure treated lumber. Since 2010, the company has seen tremendous growth by introducing several unique brands and first-to-market chemistries across the DIY space as a whole. These brands include the “COOL!” Pool Deck Coating, “MiracleMist” Cleaners, “REJŪV” Asphalt Enhancer, and most recently, “Lemongrass Farms”, a family of all-natural insect repellents that launches in Q1 of 2023. This expansion beyond “coatings alone” has prompted the company’s leadership to reevaluate its internal structure and consolidate all brands under a new corporate umbrella, Encore Brands. “The company has evolved so much since we first incorporated, establishing a parent company to encompass our ancillary brands makes a lot of sense.” says Jeff Moreau Jr., VP of Encore Brands. Moreau Jr. continues, “Although we plan to continue to launch new brands, we’ve also established a contract packaging division with a primary focus on liquid and BOV filling services. We want to partner with reputable manufacturers who are seeking a dependable outfit to fulfill their packaging needs. Encore Brands provides step by step project management where success is driven from conception all the way to shipping their products on-time and in full.” Encore Brands’ 80,000 square foot facility remains in Cartersville, GA. where they soon expect the delivery of a state-of-the-art BOV filling machine. BOV continuous spray cans are the greener alternative to aerosol technology, where the active ingredient is propelled by compressed air rather than hydrocarbon propellants. “We feel that BOV is the future, and we want to help other manufacturers convert their existing aerosol products into BOV configurations. It’s a great way to reduce carbon footprints while simultaneously improving the product itself. We’re thrilled to have this capability, as it’s an integral part of our latest launch, Lemongrass Farms.” Lemongrass Farms is Encore Brands’ new line of all-natural insect repellents that promise “zero mystery ingredients” and moisturizing features. Look for “TREK”, “TREK for Kids”, and “SCRAM!” in stores nationwide beginning in Q1 of 2023. Moreau Jr. concludes, “Although we’ve come a long way, our story is still being written. As we make these significant investments in our personnel, filling capabilities and infrastructure, the creation of Encore Brands is well-timed and certainly an exciting new chapter we’re looking forward to. Customer service and creating unique, exciting new products remains paramount.” For more information about Encore Brands, please visit their website at encorebrands.com About Encore Brands Based in Cartersville, GA, Encore Brands is the mother company to several subsidiaries across multiple retail categories.
