About Ripclear:

Ripclear was launched in 2013 when co-founder Ryan Doherty destroyed his third snow goggle lens of the season. He contacted his best friend and product designer, Zach Hines. They hit up Google and Amazon looking for anything that could prevent expensive goggles from getting scratched and discovered nothing like that existed, so Ripclear was born. After years of creating and testing films, they successfully developed a plastic that could fit on all surfaces while remaining optically clear. Ripclear soon rolled out protective films for snow goggles, sunglasses, action cameras, sports visors, motorcycle goggles, smartphone and tablet screen protectors and more.

The initial Ripclear optics shield was such a success that when the COVID-19 outbreak hit, Doherty and Hines saw the opportunity to fill a desperately needed niche. They made a pivot, designing the V2 shield to serve as a certified shield for frontline personnel battling COVID-19. For more info, visit http://www.ripclear.com.
