DUNBRIDGE, Ohio – Tranquility Briefs recently achieved Netflix fame through a mention in its original series, “The Chair.” In the fourth episode of the series, actor Bob Balaban, who plays an aging American-lit professor experiencing incontinence, expresses his frustration with being seen as irrelevant. He tells his wife, “I used to bestride the world like Colossus.” His wife wields a package of adult diapers and replies, “Well, now you’re going to bestride it in Tranquility Briefs.” “Having our Tranquility brand of products mentioned by name was both a surprise and an incredible honor for our small, Midwest business and the people we serve,” said Andy Stocking, president and CEO of Principle Business Enterprises, Inc., (PBE), manufacturer of Tranquility. “The scene brings to light an extremely personal reality that millions of people, and their partners or caregivers, experience daily.” An estimated 44.8 million U.S. adults – one in six adults – live with incontinence, according to third-party research commissioned by PBE. An additional 9.5 million adults are caregiving for someone with incontinence. PBE began manufacturing Tranquility products over 30 years ago after recognizing the need to provide those with incontinence the means to continue living their everyday lives with peace-of-mind.
