About GYP-GRIP Fasteners Inc.
Our Story
GYP-GRIP was invented by Jeremy Mean of Woodstock, New Brunswick, Canada. Jeremy identified a gap in the insulation fastener market: existing products either required specialized tools, only worked on a single substrate, or created thermal bridges in the wall assembly. He designed a one-piece, injection-molded fastener to address those issues.
The product is Patent Pending in the United States and Canada. Manufacturing is being set up with Custom Plastics International in Ontario. GYP-GRIP Fasteners Inc. is a Canadian company based in New Brunswick.
