Acme United has been in the first aid business for more than 40 years, currently selling under the PhysiciansCare and Pac-Kit brands.

In a press release, Acme United CEO Walter Johnsen talked about the growing demand for safety products.

“The first aid and safety market has been growing due to corporate emphasis on the safety of employees, regulations that require first aid kits, and new products that control bleeding and treat burns,” said Johnsen. “Combined first aid, safety, and over the counter medications revenues at Acme United are expected to be approximately $40 million in 2014.”

First Aid Only employs approximately 100 people.
