GRIPMetal™ Solutions
An innovative patented technology of metal hooks distributed either on one side, or both sides of thin gauge metallic sheets.
See what makes GRIPMetal™ the best choice for all sectors of industry.
GRIPMetal™ provides the strongest mechanical bond with the use of the lightest and easily available core materials
Super Tough Super Strong
With thousands of hardened steel teeth covering the surface GRIPMetal can withstand extreme lateral forces without ever failing.
Environmentally Friendly
Because GRIPMetal does not use adhesives, paint, and is 100% recyclable (based on base material), it is one of the most environmentally friendly building systems.
Mechanical Attachment
GRIPMetal does not need adhesives or fasteners, our patented mechanical attachment system called NRS, mechanically bonding materials, virtually eliminating other attachment methods.
Any Size Any Shape
We can fabricate our technology in virtually any metal and in any shape, the options are only limited to your design and attachment requirements. See how GRIPMetal can change your attachment methods.
Mechanical Attachment
The technology that drives GRIPMetal™ stems from the NUCAP© Retention System (NRS™). This patented technology won the automotive PACE award in 2001 and is now the premiere Mechanical Attachment Technology in the world.
Structural Reinforcement
GRIPMetal™ is an innovative technology for a mechanical bonding between material layers based on a patented technology for the mass production of consistent small-scale metal hooks that are distributed either on one side or both sides of thin gauge metallic sheets.
Composite Materials
The GRIPMetal™ composite concept increases structural performance while optimizing weight. A composite can be constructed in 3 methods, with GRIPMetal™ acting as a structural layer, reinforcing the core or forming high strength outer skins.
Thermal Enhancement
With GRIPMetal and our unique and patented process creates surface enhancement to any metal, increasing the surface area without adding weight to an element, which allows manufacturers to reduce the size and weight of their products.
GRIPMetal™ technology can be produced in any Metal Substrate
-
STEEL
-
ALUMINUM

TITANIUM
GRIPMetal™ can be fabricated with a variety of materials and composites
Featuring precisely designed hooks that give designers, engineers and scientists a brand-new foundation for design and manufacture of complex forms in composites, GRIPMetal transfers the core strengths of a metal substrate to other materials. Consisting of a consistently shaped field of micro-scaled hooks that are formed onto ultra-thin gauge sheet metals, using robust mechanical adhesion to overcome the challenges of bonding different materials together.
Potential applications range from strengthening thin-gauge composite materials in papers, woods and plastics, to large- scale use in construction technologies and materials.
