Tick-borne diseases have become a growing concern in recent years, and ProtectOne Ltd and Remion Design Ltd are committed to creating a safe environment for both humans and animals. Tickless Run is their answer to the need for a reliable and effective non-toxic tick repellent device.
What sets Tickless Run apart is its use of ultrasonic technology. The device emits a series of ultrasonic pulses that disturb ticks, keeping them away from the runner. This revolutionary product is not only effective but also ultralight, making it barely noticeable during a run.
Designed with the needs of runners in mind, Tickless Run features a super-strong fastening system that ensures it stays securely in place. Additionally, it includes a nightlight function, providing visibility during nighttime runs.
The dimensions of Tickless Run are compact, with a width of 22 mm and a height of 38 mm. Its small size allows for easy attachment to shoelaces or other parts of running gear.
The Tickless Run project began in April 2020 in Budapest, Hungary, and was completed in December of the same year. The design underwent continuous improvements until it reached its current shape and color. The designers conducted extensive market research to identify the need for a chemical-free and rechargeable tick repellent product that is both stylish and functional.
One of the main challenges faced during the design process was fitting all the necessary components into the small shell of Tickless Run. The rechargeable battery, transducer, microchip, LED light, micro-USB connector, PCB, and button all had to be carefully integrated to create a compact and lightweight product.
Tickless Run is not only a practical solution for tick prevention but also a stylish accessory for runners. Its sleek design and range of color options make it a fashionable choice for active individuals.
Tickless Run has been recognized for its excellence in design and innovation. It was awarded the Iron A' Design Award in the Safety Clothing and Personal Protective Equipment category in 2021. This prestigious award acknowledges the product's practicality, innovation, and adherence to industry standards.
With Tickless Run, ProtectOne Ltd and Remion Design Ltd have successfully combined design and environmental awareness to create the perfect protection for runners and outdoor enthusiasts. This chemical-free and ultralight tick repeller ensures a worry-free running experience while contributing to a safer and healthier environment.
