Wave-Style EDC Key-Ring Designs

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

MAENI Designs the WAVECLIPS with Seamless Function

— December 15, 2024 — Lifestyle
MAENI introduces the WAVECLIPS which is an EDC key ring that elevates everyday tasks and is inspired by progressive aerospace technology. The WAVECLIPS ensure the perfect blend of strength, lightweight feel, and simple usage -- all of this is packed in an elegant and minimal design.

The tool is much more than a lifestyle item as it is meant to elevate usual tasks. At the root of the design is the waved structure which is inspired by coiled wave springs that are used in aerospace equipment and speedy rail systems. The WAVECLIPS is made from a spring-grade SUS304 stainless steel material and it blends premium durability with a sleek and minimal design language, making it much more than a key ring.
