Pang Wangle
Pang Wangle delivers an elegant solution to biting insects with their eco-friendly wraps, scarves and leggings that include a built-in Insect Shield® bug barrier.
“Based in subtropical New Orleans, we take fun seriously and we don't think the threat of biting insects should spoil a good time,” states Jennifer John. “We have the technology to protect ourselves against diseases spread by insects. We use it and make it pretty.”
First developed for the U.S. military, the Insect Shield® process binds a small amount of permethrin to the fabric fibers which lasts for 70+ washes. It's odorless and EPA approved for the entire family including infants and pregnant women. For more information, visit www.pangwangle.com or contact Jennifer John at 504-452-0788 or jen@pangwangle.com.

TESTIMONIALS
WORDS FROM HAPPY MEMBERS
-
TGA’s media network and its resulting coverage keeps our industry dynamic and gives our customers good reason to retire their old travel gear and buy the latest and greatest.
-
I’ve been a member of TGA for over 20 years, and it continues to be the best decision year after year. We benefit from growth and brand awareness though the association's robust website, a fantastic quarterly magazine, the industry’s biggest and best trade show, and PR services to assist in communicating with international media.
-
TGA’s regular updates are essential in learning about new products, programs and companies. Joining TGA is an easy investment and provides a worthwhile return.
-
TGA is THE vital industry hub! Through their trade publication, Travel Goods Showcase, and the annual International Travel Goods Show, I’m always informed of changing products, trends, policies – everything I need to know to both make informed decisions for my business and give up-to-date information to my customers.
-
The Travel Goods Association continuously supports the growth of its member companies and helps them access promotional opportunities and high level media attention. And, they produce an exceptional trade show!
-
The Travel Goods Association is the worldwide anchor of the travel goods industry. The staff is both professional and amazingly caring. I strongly believe that every company in the travel goods channel should join TGA.
-
Acting as the only unifying force in the industry, the Travel Goods Association is our glue. TGA allows everyone, big or small, the opportunity to feel equal. Department stores and mom and pop stores can discuss their futures side-by-side without one feeling slighted by the other. This effort is their main course. Everything else is dessert.
