NORTH LIMA, Ohio — Zim’s has expanded its product roster with the introduction of Zim’s Advanced Vapor Rub.

Zim’s has expanded its product roster with the introduction of Zim’s Advanced Vapor Rub.

Perfecta Products Inc., the maker of the brand, said Wednesday that the vapor rub come in two forms: a traditional jar and a four-ounce tube with a no mess, easy-on applicator.

The company noted that the tube will allow users to keep their hands clean when applying the vapor rub.

"When you talk to consumers, their No. 1 complaint about vapor rubs is that they can be messy. We take the mess out of the vapor rub with our new easy to apply applicator," stated Mark Smith, Perfecta’s director of marketing and sales.

Zim’s Advanced Vapor Rub is 100% natural and contains natural menthol, arnica extract, aloe vera, camphor, coconut oil, white beeswax and eucalyptus globulus, according to Perfecta, which added that the formula provides a natural alternative for parents not wanting to use chemical products on their children.

The new vapor rub is slated to hit the shelves of independent and regional drug stores by the end of the year, Perfecta reported. It is now available online at ZimsUSA.com.

Zim’s Advanced Vapor Rub marks the second major health care product rollout for Zim’s recently. In late July, the brand unveiled the Zim’s Cold Sore kit, which includes a tube of ointment and a stick of lip balm to treat and address cold sore symptoms.
