RICHMOND, VA —

Foam producer Carpenter Co. announced last week the signing of a licensing agreement with Minneapolis-based Kisses from Heaven.

The Hugster, Deluxe Hugster and Dream Hug multipurpose pillows will be manufactured and marketed by Carpenter Co., said Dan Schecter, vp, sales and marketing for the company's Consumer Products division. The new pillows will retail for $24.99.

Schecter said, "These products for new birth mothers are specially designed to provide comfort and support. But these products are great for anyone to use everyday as well, and that is what makes the new line so exciting."
