An Idea The idea for The SKrAPr came out of necessity. While cleaning my glass-top stove, with the

razor edged tool, and the only tool on the market at that time, I put a tiny scratch in the glass. Mad that I did that, I started looking around for other tools that might do the job, and which would not scratch the glass. There wasn’t anything in the market, available, at that time.

As the owner of an Automotive moulding company, I then went back to my engineers, talking to them about what happened, and my idea for a glass-top scraper. I presented to them a handmade epoxy tool for them to copy, and their job, to find me a resin formulation that would do everything I needed it to do. A long list of requirements, but one that would not be compromised.

Handy Home’s commitment is now, and in the future, to invent and keep re-inventing products in the marketplace, products that not only fail at what they are supposed to do, but also lack the innovation that the up-to-date consumer looks for. Dishwasher safe, Bacteria resistant, ease of use and practicality, modern bright colours and hues, are just a few of the criteria that will be looked at. And using our engineering know-how and newly designed automotive resins, Handy is poised to completely modernize and update the tools and gadgets of the home.

Handy’s commitment not only lies within its product grouping, but also within its manufacturing. All products will be manufactured in our Toronto plant using resins that are manufactured in the USA. And not stopping there, our future plan will also include a modern, state-of-the-art manufacturing plant in the US, before the end of 2013, using the same ultra high-speed electric moulding machines as in our Canadian operation.

Innovation through Ingenuity At Handy Home Products, we employ those who's minds, and motives, fit the scope and

ideals of our company. From graphic designers, CAD/CAM engineers, plastics and resins formulation experts, to moulding and machining perfectionists, Handy is well capable of using its people, and their strengths, to become the modern OXO of handy home gadgets and tools.

Our expertise in design, function, and resin selection, comes from our unique experience in the automotive sector, where function, fit, colours, and resins, serve as a cohesive bond to ensure consumer magnetism, and ultimately product purchase. Our designs are to build a better mousetrap, our functionality tested, and retested, to give the consumer only the finest purpose-built product, and our colour selections unparalleled in the home gadget market, where previously the colour black, and rubber, were the only choices.

In 2010, we filmed a segment for the Canadian production of Dragon’s Den, known in the US as The Shark Tank, and when aired in April of 2011, The SKrAPr was voted, by Rogers Broadcasting, as The Most Innovative Tool of 2011. This award captured the essence of Handy and its people, and was welcomed by us as a sign that we were heading in the right direction.

The SKrAPr has been written up by The Toronto Star, The Financial Post, and has appeared in Popular Mechanics, Florida Parent and Child, Woman’s World, Detroit News, Metro-Times, News Journal, The New York Times, and many more blogs and posts on the internet.
