Tri-anim was founded in 1975 by Bob Byers, Jr., Don DeMate and Jay E. Davis. The name Tri-anim originated from the three founders (Tri) combined with the latin word, “anima” meaning “life, breath and soul.” Today, the “Tri” in Tri-anim has also grown to represent a strong sense of honesty, integrity and service.
A strong reputation for quality products and reliable customer service helped the company flourish throughout the 80s and 90s. In the last decade, a series of strategic mergers and acquisitions further stimulated the company’s growth.
