The Atomgripz brand was founded in 2009 by Lloyd Kelley of England. They specialise in making high quality grip strengthening equipment including a range of high quality hand grippers.
History and Location
Atomgripz are based in Surrey, England.
As a grip enthusiast himself, Kelley decided to launch a unique Gripper key ring in 2009 which rapidly gained interest and popularity within the strength community.
After the success of the Atomgripz key ring mini gripper, a full size torsion spring hand gripper was introduced to the strength market.
Key Rings
The first Atomgripz product introduced to the grip market was a miniature hand grippers Key Ring. This was designed as an item for gripper fans to display on keys, gym bags etc. Fully functional, the tiny gripper was surprisingly resistant and it became apparent that it could actually be used to train the fingers. It found popularity amongst non grip fans for it's quirky appeal and is commonly used as a stress squeezer.
Laser etch branding was added to the Key Ring gripper in 2010, this quickly became a huge selling point for the product. The product has since been used as a promotional tool for other companies as Atomgripz now allow customers to brand the handles with logos or e-mail addresses.
Full Size Grippers
Atomgripz hand grippers designed to increase grip and forearm strength and size.
Assembled in England with components from UK suppliers.
Incorporating customer feedback and research into the development of of their grippers, Atomgripz launched full size grippers with customised knurling which would enable users to choose how soft or rough the knurling would be applied to their gripper. This paid dividends as customers appreciated this new feature of hand gripper customisable options.
Three strengths of the Atomgripz gripper were first introduced to the grip market. The grippers received great feedback from customers and were reviewed as having the best handles of any hand gripper.
Following the early success from launch, an option to add 24ct gold plate was also introduced.
One criticism that met the first Atomgripz grippers was that the toughest on the three, the triple band, was on the easy side for the strongest gripper users. This was met with the development of the fourth grippers release, the Quad band which is far more difficult to close. A 5th and 6th band are planned in the future once the Quad band is regularly being closed.

'Accusations of Arab Apartheid refer to the allegation that the treatment of minority groups in some Arab countries resembles the treatment of black citizens in South Africa under apartheid, commonly understood as a system of laws reducing the targeted group to inferior legal status.
Africa
The American University economist George Ayittey accuses Arab governments in a number of African countries have been accused of practicing apartheid against black citizens. Countries so accused include Sudan and Mauritania.
Mauritania
According to Koigi wa Wamwere, "the ruling Arabic-speaking moors practice apartheid against , including arrest, executions without trial, expropriation of land and denial of cultural identity" with the effect that "By 1997 Moorish apartheid in Mauritania had driven 55000 black Africans into Senegal, Mali, and surrounding countries. Judging by the numbers slaughtered, black, Arab, and Moorish apartheids have killed more Africans than white apartheid in South Africa did."
Sudan
Beginning in 1991 elders of the Zaghawa people of Sudan complained that they were victims of an intensifying Arab apartheid campaign. Sudanese Arabs, who control the government, are widely referred to as practicing apartheid against Sudan's non-Arab citizens. The government is accused of "deftly manipulat(ing) Arab solidarity" to carry out policies of apartheid and ethnic cleansing against non-Arabs in Darfur. Other distinguished people who have accused the regime in Sudan of practicing "apartheid" against non-Arabs include former Canadian Minister of Justice Irwin Cotler.
Bahrain
New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof and other commentators have accused the treatment of the Shia majority by the Sunni government of Bahrain of similarity to apartheid South Africa.
Egypt
Egypt has been accused of practicing apartheid against the ancient Coptic Christian community. The Baptist Press describes Egypt of practicing a form of "religious apartheid" under which indigenous Christians "can be terrorized, robbed and killed with impunity."
Iraq under Saddam Hussein
Sunni Iraquis are accused of having "viciously enforced ethnic and religious apartheid in Iraq for over 40 years" against Kurds, Shia and Marsh Arabs.
Lebanon
Journalist Khaled Abu Toameh and other commentators accuse Lebanon of practicing apartheid against Palestinian Arabs who have lived in Lebanon as stateless refugees since 1948. According to Human Rights Watch, "In 2001, Parliament passed a law prohibiting Palestinians from owning property, a right they had for decades. Lebanese law also restricts their ability to work in many areas. In 2005, Lebanon eliminated a ban on Palestinians holding most clerical and technical positions, provided they obtain a temporary work permit from the Labor Ministry, but more than 20 high-level professions remain off-limits to Palestinians. Few Palestinians have benefited from the 2005 reform, though. In 2009, only 261 of more than 145,679 permits issued to non-Lebanese were for Palestinians. Civil society groups say many Palestinians choose not to apply because they cannot afford the fees and see no reason to pay a portion of their salary toward the National Social Security Fund, since Lebanese law bars Palestinians from receiving social security benefits."
Calling on Lebanon to change the systematic discrimination agaoinst his people, Palestinian journalist Rami George Khouri compare Lebanese treatment of Palestinians to the "Apartheid system" of South Africa.
Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia is often accused of practicing apartheid against its Shia citizens and against non-Muslims generally, in addition to accusations of gender apartheid.
Gender apartheid
Saudia Arabia and other Arab countires have been accused of practicing gender apartheid against women. in 1990 the National Organization for Women excoriated Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and other Arab countries for practicing gender apartheid. They compared the way Saudi Arabia and Kuwait treat women with the practice of racial apartheid in South Africa, saying that Arab societies "systematically oppress women. This is gender apartheid in its purest, most brutal form and should deeply offend all Americans."
