Abstract: We prove, under some mild conditions, that the equivariant twisted K-theory group of a crossed module admits a ring structure if the twisting 2-cocycle is 2-multiplicative. We also give an explicit construction of the transgression map $T_1:H^{\ast }(Gamma;A)o{H}^{\ast -1}((NtimesGamma;A)$ for any crossed module $NoGamma$ and prove that any element in the image is $infty$-multiplicative. As a consequence, we prove that, under some mild conditions, for a crossed module $Nogm$ and any $eincheck{Z}^3(Gamma;S^1)$, that the equivariant twisted K-theory group $K_{e,Gamma}^{\ast }(N)$ admits a ring structure. As an application, we prove that for a compact, connected and simply connected Lie group G, the equivariant twisted K-theory group $K_{[c],G}^{\ast }(G)$ is endowed with a canonical ring structure $K_{[c],G}^{i+d}(G)otimes{K}_{[c],G}^{j+d}(G)o{K}_{[c],G}^{i+j+d}(G)$, where $d=dimG$ and $[c]in{H}^2(GtimesG;S^1)$.
