iGrips

Our latest addition to the non-abrasive range, iGrips is a rubber-like material that is soft to the touch. Suitable for applying to electronics as a means of enhancing grip to prevent damage from drops or to allow greater dexterity and control during use. The ‘bobbly’ surface is comfortable to the touch while offering excep­ti­onally high levels of grip.

Benefits

Our additional aim for this material was to be free from plasti­cisers, chemicals which change plastics properties, making it more malleable. Benefits of this allow for cheaper construc­tion, but at a potential risk to people’s health, as plasticisers can be absorbed by the body. As plasticisers are banned in the USA and parts of Europe, we wanted to give people a high-quality product that is non-toxic and can be safely used on children’s toys and medical equipment.

The iGrips material is a highly treated siliconized film with extremely low shore hardness properties combined with a hexagonal grouped bobble emboss pattern to provide industry-leading levels of grip. The adhesive is a permanent non-aqueous pressure-sensitive coating to provide long term bond.
