EMI Relaunches Tetra Gun Care Under New Ownership
News Briefs - September/October 2023
Earlier this year, the Tetra Gun care business was sold to Engineered Materials Inc. (EMI), based in Statesville, North Carolina. The company is run by Greg Cohen, who was the general manager of Tetra’s former company, FTI, Inc., for nearly a decade. Tetra Gun offers a full line of lubricant and cleaner formulas under such names as Action Blaster and Triple Action. ValuPro III cleaning kits and related accessories, Prosmith cleaning rods, and Bore Boa cleaning rope are also part of the company’s lineup.
“After three decades in the firearms industry, with most of this time specifically relating to firearm-maintenance products, I am excited to drive the Tetra Gun brand forward,” says Cohen, president of Engineered Materials, Inc. “The legacy of this brand is respected globally, and we will continue to proudly serve this 2A-inspired community with American-made performance lubricant and cleaner formulas at a fair price.”
The Tetra Gun care brand was founded in 1985 with the introduction of its patented fluoropolymer lubricant protectant technology for firearms and other sporting goods applications. Today, EMI offers over 200 SKUs under the Tetra Gun label and private-label customers worldwide, with distribution in more than 40 countries worldwide. (tetraguncare.com)
