OtterBox, the company behind some seriously rugged phone cases, is acquiring Boston, Massachusetts-based Wrapsol and its family of premium protective film solutions for mobile devices.

Wrapsol is known for offering a variety of protective film wraps, including the rugged ULTRA, smudge-resistant CLEAN, durable ORIGINAL, discreet PRIVACY and non-slip GRIP PAD lines.

We get OtterBox’s idea to enhance its portfolio. At the same time, Wrapsol gets an opportunity to reach even more customers.

Commenting on the news, OtterBox’s President and CEO Brian Thomas said: “Adding Wrapsol to the OtterBox portfolio of world-class protection significantly enhances our ability to provide our customers and consumers an expanded variety of high-quality products.”

Guess next-gen OtterBox cases will be even better…
