Incorporated in 1992, ITA-MED is an innovative U.S. manufacturer of high quality, eco-friendly health care, medical support, orthopedic, and sports medicine products. Based in Hayward, CA, ITA-MED’s products are both medically correct and comfortable to wear and are popular among consumers, doctors, dealers, pharmacies, and distributors worldwide. ITA-MED manufactures and markets its products under three brands: ITA-MED, Gabrialla (maternity & women’s health collection), and MAXAR (sports medicine & orthopedic supports, plus graduated compression socks). A high percentage of ITA-MED’s 100 products are manufactured in the U.S. and carry FDA certification, as well as Medicare and Medicaid approval; ITA-MED is also a GSA Contract Holder. At the beginning, the idea of the founder, Lev Tripolsky, was to simply be a distributor of orthopedic and medical support products: find better quality products, create better packaging, and add value to the shapewear, support, and maternity products that were available in the early 1990’s. But Tripolsky, a mechanical engineer, found he could improve the design, quality, and materials of the products he was distributing, using more natural fabrics, creating more attractive designs, and improving overall functionality. And that’s exactly what he did: within 2 to 3 years the company converted from distribution to actual design and manufacturing. The company takes a proactive approach to healthcare and well-being: ITA-MED believes the best way to “feel healthy is to be healthy.” Consequently, they have developed brands to provide quality products that are not simply ways to alleviate various medical conditions but are part of a long-term plan for health maintenance and better living overall. ITA-MED prides itself on being an eco-friendly and “green” manufacturer. The company uses natural, breathable and non-allergenic materials to ensure its collections can be used comfortably and safely.
