Posted on June 15th, 2016 by Ryan Moore

Draper, UT – June 15, 2016 –  HZO, Inc., the total solutions leader in liquid protection technology for any size electronic component, sensor, assembly or device, announced that it has partnered with Binatone, an official Motorola licensee, to integrate both water and sweat protection into their wearable, wireless and waterproof earbuds from the VerveLife range launching today.

Two products – the VerveOnes+ and VerveRider+ – feature HZO liquid protection and carry a waterproof rating of IP57, allowing the earbuds to perform far beyond the most rigorous testing standards and extreme environmental conditions because of how, when, and where HZO’s thin-film coating solution is applied.

“HZO aligns with the VerveLife mission to push the limits of technology while making daily activities more enjoyable for users without fearing electronic failure caused by sweat and water,” said Simone Maraini, Chief Sales Officer for HZO. “Binatone was an ideal partner to work with; by trusting our expertise in protective coating application during the manufacturing process, we were able to ensure the products delivered reliable protection without impacting the battery life or wireless audio quality as an end result.”

“HZO helped us build a better product that meets the needs of those who live an active and unpredictable lifestyle,” said David Harris, VP of Products at Binatone. “The VerveOnes+ and VerveRider+ are sportier styles that are built to withstand a tough workout or getting stuck in the rain. HZO has enabled the VerveLife brand to be positioned as an innovative market leader by exploring new technologies that push the boundaries of design and usage.”

VerveOnes+ features include:

• Completely wireless stereo earbuds with innovative new wear style;
• 12 hours of battery life with protective charging case;
• Integrated dual mics for calls;
• Siri and Google Now compatible;
• Hubble Connect App for iOS and Android;
