Which Dragons' Den investor backed the GripIt plasterboard-fixing product?

Deborah Meaden backed the GripIt plasterboard-fixing product on Dragons' Den.

GripIt was developed as a fixing designed to hold items securely in plasterboard, a common building material that can be difficult to anchor into. The product attracted attention because it addressed a practical household and trade problem with a specialised design rather than a conventional wall plug.

Deborah Meaden became the dragon associated with the investment after the product's pitch. Her portfolio has included businesses in consumer products, leisure and manufacturing, making the GripIt deal a useful example of the range of companies presented on the programme.

GripIt is sometimes confused with other hardware products seen on the show, because Dragons' Den has featured several inventions aimed at home improvement. The relevant investor for this plasterboard-fixing pitch is Meaden.
