ERICWANG
Eric Wang pursued his PhD at Cambridge, where he began developing protective materials for military-grade glass applications. This research inspired him to found RHINOSHIELD, now a global leader in ultra-durable mobile accessories. His work goes beyond protection, driving the brand’s strong commitment to sustainability and circular innovation. Rooted in Taiwan and reaching global markets, RHINOSHIELD began with device protection and has since evolved into a leader in sustainable material innovation. Guided by its Changemaker spirit, the brand pioneers impact-resistance engineering, develops circular material solutions, and advances ocean cleanup technologies — setting a new benchmark where protection and sustainability coexist. In 2017, the company launched industry-leading zero-waste and circular economy initiatives, building a mono-material ecosystem that reduces reliance on virgin plastics and enhances recyclability. Today, more than 20 million users worldwide support RHINOSHIELD’s mono-material products. In 2024, the brand introduced CircularNext, the first phone case made entirely from recycled cases, and in 2025 unveiled CircularBlue™, a renewable-powered, AI-driven ocean cleanup initiative. Looking ahead, from accessory manufacturer to material tech innovator to sustainable solution provider, RHINOSHIELD continues to explore three routes of plastic management—present, past and future—to push the boundaries of material science and circular design, underscoring its vision to Protect Your World.
