Colantotte products contain permanent magnets arranged in the Colantotte’s unique Alternating North-South Polarity Orientation (ANSPO™). This arrangement allows the magnetic force to affect a large area to improve circulation and alleviate stiffness at the applied location. It is certified in Japan as an authentic magnetic health device.
In 2005, Colantotte was launched in America under the overseas brand TRION:Z. Professional golfers Rory McIlroy and Rickie Fowler as well as many other top athletes regularly use this gear to soothe and support their bodies. Additionally, in 2012, one of the Colantotte bracelets was featured prominently as a key story item in the Hollywood movie “The Avengers” as part of a tie-up campaign, demonstrating the recognition of the brand’s quality and design not only in Japan, but by many people all over the world.
Since its founding in 1997, Colan Totte Co., Ltd. (formerly Arc Quest Co., Ltd.) has been a medical device manufacturer with “Health, Spirit, and Smiles” as its motto, and in 1999 it began selling its Colantotte brand of magnetic therapeutic devices and health gear for general use.
In 2008, it obtained ISO 13485 certification and established a system for maintaining and improving the quality of its medical devices. It also obtained the CE Marking safety standard certification in Europe and medical device certification (MFDS) in South Korea, among others, and it is continuing its efforts in various major countries throughout the world.
In July 2015, it changed the company name to Colan Totte Co., Ltd., and continues striving to support a healthy lifestyle for everyone in Japan and the rest of the world.
