Grip Boost Inc. is a small sporting goods manufacturer based in Linthicum, Maryland. It develops grip-enhancement solutions for athletic gloves, including a gel that restores tackiness to football gloves without leaving residue on the ball. The product arose from a collaboration between University of Maryland chemical engineering PhDs and athletes, starting in 2012 to address the rapid loss of grip caused by friction and washing. The Grip Boost Football Gel is patent-pending and licensed from the University of Maryland's Office of Technology Commercialization. In 2014 the technology was recognized as a finalist for UMD's Invention of the Year, and in 2018 the company expanded its line with Grip Boost Second Skin Golf Glove 2.0. The business operates in the sporting goods manufacturing sector and maintains a small team.
