In a world where the environment seems to be just an after-thought, at WRAPTIE™ we have decided to do things differently.
Everything thing we do has an impact on something else.
Our responsibility must be to protect what we can, whenever we can. And we should not be afraid to challenge the status quo to make the change happen.
By considering our environmental impact on our planet in every decision we make, we hope to create a brand that people where people are proud to work at and happy to buy from.
We strive to be Earth Friendly.
"Sometimes the right way is not always the easy way, but then life was never meant to be easy!"

- Our WRAPTIE™ GRIPPER's contain more than 30% recycled rubber, taken from old tyres and shoe soles.
- All of our products carry a 2-Year warranty and are designed to last, meaning less waste for you.
