Does anyone know of phone case companies and screen protectors that don’t manufacture their products in China?
Update:
Spigen:
Cases (Korea)
Screen protectors (sadly, made in China...)
Korean company but HQ in US
source: Spigen services. Originally they told me it’s all from Korea, only to find out afterwards they just meant the cases. So check before buying.
Ringke:
Cases (Korea-mostly - supposedly all except silicone, China for silicone cases)
Screen protectors (China)
Korean company with US office
Source: I’ve bought some Ringke cases before and all the ones I had at least (Fusion X, onyx in past few years) were made in Korea. But I’ve seen some people with silicone cases with the made in China note.
Other notable brands that are made in China:
UAG, Mous, Zizo, Speck
Otterbox (apparently manufactured in Mexico, US, and China)
Pela:
Cases -
Canada(**New update as of Feb 2022 - they make them in Canada AND China)
Most cases are likely to be from China, but a few brands here and there like Spigen and Ringke manufacture elsewhere like Korea.
Update #2 (Feb 2024):
Screen protectors - if you’re looking at tempered glass, effectively the vast majority will be made in China.
However, Media Devil in UK has been increasingly making their screen protectors in UK.

The ones that appear to be made in UK are their “glass free” versions, which are a synthetic material that is like the best of both worlds on glass and plastic.
I’ve used it in the past and really like it. Be sure to pick the ones that say they’re manufactured in UK.
The one drawback is the delivery takes awhile if you opt for the free shipping option (that comes with whatever the min purchase price was).
