Liquipel's Sixth Consecutive Inc. 5000 Recognition Signals Strong Growth in Fashion-Tech Accessory Market
Liquipel's sustained presence on the Inc. 5000 list highlights the company's successful fusion of technology and fashion in mobile accessories, demonstrating resilience amid economic challenges while achieving over $1 billion in retail sales.
Liquipel has secured its sixth consecutive appearance on the Inc. 5000 list of America's fastest-growing private companies, joining the ranks of past honorees like Microsoft, Meta, and Under Armour. The recognition comes as the company reports over $1 billion in retail sales and global distribution of its technology products that blend functionality with fashion-forward design.
Sam Winkler, co-founder and CEO of Liquipel, attributed the sustained growth to the company's team and partners, emphasizing their focus on creating products that are both powerful and aesthetically appealing. "We're not just building phone protection—we're creating power and technology products that are stylish, fashion-forward, and built for the future," Winkler stated. The company's expansion from its origins in waterproof smartphone technology to a comprehensive portfolio of mobile accessories reflects this dual focus on innovation and design.
The 2025 Inc. 5000 honorees demonstrated exceptional growth despite economic uncertainty, inflationary pressure, and labor market fluctuations. Among the top 500 companies, the median three-year revenue growth rate reached 1,552 percent, with these businesses collectively adding more than 48,678 jobs to the U.S. economy. Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc., noted that making the list this year "speaks volumes about a company's tenacity and clarity of vision" amid challenging conditions.
Liquipel's product portfolio includes award-winning Liquid Glass Screen Protection with 9H sapphire hardness offering up to 20x scratch resistance, along with power accessories under brands including Powertek, PowerSmart, Simple, and instaProtek. The company has leveraged strategic celebrity partnerships with figures like Pharrell Williams, Steve Aoki, and Nyjah Huston to maintain a dynamic brand presence in the marketplace.
