Lynn J. Rust, PhD and Sherwood Mackel

Gripz was inspired by the real-life needs of Sherwood and Lynn. Sherwood saw the need for some kind of device to help Lynn continue painting despite her hand osteoarthritis. So he invented one! This led to the development of the Gripz Sher-Hold product line. Our journey began with a simple goal: to help people with hand discomfort pursue their passions and daily activities with ease. Today, Gripz is proud to offer products that improve the quality of life for our users by reducing hand discomfort and extending their productive years.
