Tec Laboratories Inc.

It all began with our original product, Tecnu® Original Outdoor Skin Cleanser, developed by chemical engineer Dr. Robert Smith (Doc) as a waterless way to remove nuclear fall-out during the Cold War in 1961. It wasn’t until the following year, and after several bouts of poison oak rash, that his wife Evelyn stumbled upon an interesting discovery!

Sick of her children breaking out in the painful rash, Evelyn took to the backyard to remove the poison oak plants that plagued her children with her bare hands. Upon her return indoors, she grabbed the near-by Tecnu and washed up. To her surprise, she never broke out! At first, Doc was skeptical and it wasn’t until many of the Smith’s neighbors had tried Tecnu to remove poison oak resin (urushiol) successfully that they knew they had something special on their hands.

Over the years, Tecnu has expanded its offerings! Have the outdoors left you feeling itchy? Whether it's poison ivy, poison oak, or biting insects that trouble you, we have a remedy just for you!
