I see ACE also. I've been typing Ace bandage for 35+ years and never been dinged for it. You could trying typing ACE and see what happens, or you could ask your company which way they prefer to have it done. Personally, I think everyone is used to it being Ace and don't think twice about it.

I was told/taught many years ago that "Ace" was for the bandage and that "ACE" was an acronym for angiotensin converting enzyme. That's how I have always remembered it.

What the OP is saying is that the product itself is titled capital ACE with a trademark symbol after it; although traditionally, we have always transcribed it Ace. Personally, I'll keep using Ace.
