Contact Holds

Contact is a UK climbing-hold brand founded in January 2021 in a workshop in Sheffield. Created by climbers and route setters, the company set out to bring macro production to the UK and develop equipment that helps climbing facilities create engaging routes and boulder problems. After extensive research and development, Contact offers holds designed to be comfortable, durable, and inspiring for a range of climbing styles and abilities.

Its product range includes Avo, Wibbly, Pod, Penta, Sabre, Fin, Blob, Tufa, and Tadpole holds. Each collection offers distinct shapes and movement possibilities, from modular, adjustable designs and angled edges to subtle slopes, smooth curves, comfortable jugs, and directional forms. The holds can support technical sequences, powerful climbing, coordination challenges, competition bouldering, and more moderate routes. Contact also offers refurbished holds and provides technical information, order-form requests, and distributor details through its website. By combining varied textures, colours, and shapes, the brand gives route setters tools to explore friction, movement, and creative problem-setting.
