Tech21 heritage and culture
The origin of Tech21 began when our Founder, Jason Roberts, took it upon himself to revolutionise the mobile phone protection industry all the way back in 2005.
Noticing that competitors in the industry were simply buying inexpensive materials off the shelf from mass production facilities in the Far East, he identified a unique impact absorbent material here in the UK and quickly realised that it had massive potential across a wide variety of applications.
From molecular recipes to lab-testing new material ingredients and formulations, everything we do with our material science is centred around developing the most advanced impact protection for the latest devices.
We believe our planet needs protecting just as much as people’s tech does, and from the material development stage through to manufacture, we keep sustainability at the heart of what we do, whether it’s our recyclable packaging or our lab-tested bio-spice innovations.
As we design all our products in-house, we are always looking for simpler, more sustainable, and just better ways of doing things. From multi functionality, camera shields, antimicrobial features and more, we’re always looking for ways to innovate.
Our dedication to Science & Innovation doesn’t just make us popular with our customers, but also with renowned Global brands like Apple and Samsung. These are brands that we have partnered with almost since we began, demonstrating the consistent trust and highest levels of excellence these huge brands rely on our products for.
