The idea started out as a rough drawing on paper and after many prototypes PhoneHug\u00ae has developed to fit almost all smart phone models.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/clip_image003.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>A product created from an initial drawing and paper model, tested with sailors, snow boarders, photographers, ramblers and horse riders. PhoneHug\u00ae was also tested at festivals, making its debut at Hideout Festival in Croatia, followed by Glastonbury, WOMAD Charlton Park and Creamfields with both back-stage crews and festivalgoers. The testers loved it, though identified a need for modification so PhoneHug\u00ae could fit the vast majority of phones. This was achieved and the first model is now on sale, feedback has been overwhelmingly positive!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/clip_image001.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>PhoneHug\u00ae is disrupting a \u00a370 million lost phone issue and a $30 billion global phone theft industry, that needed tackling as a matter of urgency.<\/p>\n<p>Up to 2000 phones are being stolen every day in the UK; over 3 million phones being lost or damaged every year; \u00a35million spent in the last 2 years on uninsured phone repairs.<\/p>\n<p>PhoneHug\u00ae helps to reduce the risk of lost, damaged, broken or stolen phones and enhance the lives of people, so they can relax and enjoy their activity, knowing their phone and data are safe.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/clip_image004.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s the tight fit that makes it grip!<\/p>\n<p>Love you phone, Hug it!\u00ae<\/p>\n<p>PhoneHug\u00ae designer Sam Fairbrother says:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/clip_image005.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>PhoneHug\u00ae has the edge on the market because it\u2019s the only phone holder that: has a strong and robust loop; grips tightly to the phone; can be easily fitted or removed in seconds; is compatible with the vast majority of smartphones.<\/p>\n<p>Compostable cellophane is used on all lanyard products and we aim to be using compostable packaging for all product by the end of 2020.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/clip_image002.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Giving back is a large part of our drive, to date PhoneHug\u00ae has helped a number of charities including; Trees for life, Balkan Under Dogs; Help for Heroes, Future Dreams, South Manchester Rehome &amp; Rescue, Girl Guide volunteers and local fund-raising events.
