What is the lead time for made-to-order egrips® phone grips?
3- 4 weeks from after receiving final artwork.

What is the minimum order quantity?
The minimum order quantity in a single print run is 500 for the custom-printed backing card and 250 for the pre-printed backing card.  Print runs with different designs can be grouped to achieve price breaks.  The minimum quantity of any one design in a grouped print run is 250.

How good is the printing quality?
egrips® phone grips are printed in high resolution and full digital CMYK process colour.  Printing is done on label stock using an HP Indigo digital printer with a print resolution capability of 800 x 2400 dpi, though 300 dpi standard magazine quality artwork is perfectly fine.

All types of graphics, photos and logos print crisply in strong vibrant colours.  The beauty of your phone grip is only limited by the creativity of your designer (see Examples).

Because the printing is by digital process the price is the same regardless of the number of colours.

Will the printing eventually wear off?
No.  Your logo is printed on label stock which is then over-laminated by the egrips® technology clear silicone rubber material and is protected from wear for the life of the grip.

What kind of surfaces will the egrips® phone grip work on?
Almost any kind of clean, non-dusty or non-oily surface - plastic, metal, wood, cardboard - and even fabric.  Keep your phone on your lap or dashboard when you are driving. 

What is the size of the egrips® phone grip?
The egrips® phone grip is approximately 27 mm (1.06”) wide x 57 mm (2.24”) long

Can we order the phone grip without the egrips logo?  No.  The egrips logo is always printed on the phone grip.  This registered trademark is an essential part of egrips branding and your guarantee of product quality. 

However, the logo may be positioned to fit in with your design.

How do egrips® phone grips protect my mobile phone or other hand held device?
egrips® phone grips are super grippy and prevent your device from slipping and sliding off solid surfaces, off your lap or out of your hand.  A recent study found that almost half of the returns for electronic devices were because of breakage.

egrips® phone grips protect against accidental drops which not only could cause surface damage to your phone but also result in the loss of valuable data.  They also reduce the incidences of phones needing repairs.

How do I put the egrips® phone grip on my mobile phone or other hand held device?
egrips® phone grips have a self-adhesive backing, making them easy to apply to any device.  To help the adhesive make a good bond the surface should be cleaned well, preferably with an alcohol swab.

How long will egrips® phone grips last?
egrips® phone grips last a long time under normal wear and tear.  egrips® phone grips aggressively grip to almost anything that they come in contact with so sliding your device in and out of tight fitting holders, chargers or pockets will tend to wear down the surface of your egrips® phone grips faster.

How can I get the most life out of my egrips® phone applique?
egrips® phone grips adhere better and stay in place longer when applied to a smooth, clean and dry surface and the bond allowed to set for a few hours immediately after application.  Avoid rubbing the edges of your egrips® phone grip to prevent the edges from lifting up.  To ensure that your egrips® phone grip remains in good condition, do not attempt to push or slide the device once the egrips® phone grip is in contact with another surface.  Keep your egrips® phone grip clean and dust free to maintain grippiness.

How do I maintain the grippiness of my egrips® phone grip?
Dust and grime can temporarily affect the grippiness.  The grips and the surface they are put on both need to be clean for best results.  The good news is that egrips® phone grips that are handled all day tend to keep a high level of grippiness without the need for regular cleaning. 

The top surface of egrips® phone grips is pure silicone elastomer and can be easily cleaned.

To completely restore grippiness wipe the phone grip clean with a damp cloth.  For stubborn grime use a little detergent or an alcohol swab.

Can I trim egrips phone grips to suit the size and shape of my device?
Yes. egrips® phone grips can be easily trimmed with sharp scissors before application. Trimming after application may damage the surface of the device and reduce the effectiveness of the backing adhesive.  Make all the corners rounded as sharp corners catch and can be readily peeled.

How do I remove an egrips® phone grip from my mobile phone, PDA or other hand held device?
Even though egrips® phone grips are designed to stay on your device, the adhesive backing is formulated to leave little or no residue. Any residues can be easily removed with an alcohol wipe after removing the egrips® phone grip.  Once egrips® grips have been removed from a device the adhesive backing loses some effectiveness and will not adhere well to another device.

What is printed on the reverse side of the backing card?
By default, the backing card is printed with our standard instructions for applying and using the egrips applique (see Product Description).  You may also have your own artwork printed on the back of the card.

Can I have my own artwork on both sides of the backing card?
Yes.  Please scroll down through the examples in the Examples page on this website to see how some clients have printed their own material on the reverse side of the backing card?

Can I have full colour printed on the reverse side of the backing card?
Yes.  Please see the examples in the Examples page on this website.  There is a small additional charge for printing full colour on the reverse side of the backing card.
