Why Catalyst? The iPhone Protection Standard in 2025
Protect your iPhone with proven, military-grade drop performance, raised-edge screen & camera safety, and innovation you can feel — all without extra bulk.
1) Real Protection for a Real Investment
Your iPhone is a $1,000+ device — central to your work, travel, and memories. Repairs are costly, and downtime is worse. Catalyst cases are engineered to prevent those costs with advanced materials, smart structures, and user-focused details that protect without getting in your way.
Impact absorption: advanced TPU, specialized foams, and engineered elastomers slow deceleration on impact.
Force distribution: reinforced corners and edges spread energy to prevent localized damage.
Multi-layer build: tough outer shell + cushioned inner layer for real-world protection.
2) Military-Grade Drop Proof — Tested Beyond the Standard
Catalyst doesn’t just claim drop protection — we prove it with rigorous testing.
- Tested to MIL-STD-810G/H: multiple drops, varied heights, faces, corners, and edges.
- Up to 10 ft / 3 m drop protection (model dependent).
- Consistency over time: repeated-drop scenarios to mirror real-life use.
