About us (new)

Welcome to PumpSkynz

Pumpskynz is passionate about making life with diabetes easier and brighter. We design covers to empower people and make a real difference. We donate 50 cents from every cover sold to diabetes-related charities around the world to support the diabetic community and bring smiles to faces. We empower, uplift and support the diabetic community.

Creator of Pumpskynz

Meet Catherine

Catherine is a T1D warrior, farmer's wife, journalist, and mother of two. She was originally from London, but has lived in Ireland for 20+ years. She was diagnosed with gestational diabetes in 2013, but found life-changing relief with a Dexcom in 2015. After initially being hesitant to get an insulin pump, she got a Medtronic 640g two years ago, which has made life much easier with her Pumpskynz covers.

Creating Pumpskynz

The Idea

'Last year, my lightbulb moment came when I was trading in my iPhone and taking so much time to pick the perfect case. It got me thinking: we care so much about customising and protecting our phones, yet there wasn’t the same choice for our other essential devices like insulin pumps.'

-Catherine

Finding the mission

The why

We believe that people with diabetes should be proud of the warriors that we are - and that includes being proud of our insulin pumps. That's why Pumpskynz was created - to help people express their personality and show off their pumps and CGMs in a supportive and empowering way.

Growing Together

The Community

'Diabetes has been a part of my life for many years, and during that time I've had the privilege of meeting some truly inspiring people. All of us joined by one thing in common: our strength and courage.

Let's show the world who we are and what we stand for - together.'

-Catherine

Happiness, Aesthetics and Fun

Pumpskynz are designed to add a bit of colour to help you personalise your diabetes equipment. The durable eco-friendly covers come in a range of colours, even glitter and glow-in-the-dark.

Designed by someone with T1D for people with T1D. The covers don’t just look great they also help to protect your device against drops, bumps, cracks and scratches.

What is a

Glowskynz?

Our Pumpskynz Gloskynz not only look pretty cool - they're also lots of fun! They provide the same layer of protection for your device as our other covers, but when the lights go out, they look even better.

Protection, Guidance and Glow in the Dark

For our Libre users, Gloskynz are an especially great help. They make your reader easier to find for those middle of the night blood sugar checks, making the process so much less stressful.

In order to get the Gloskynz to glow, you just need to expose it to a light source for at least 20 seconds. The more light it gets, the longer it will glow. Now you don't have to worry about struggling to find your reader during those late night checks - your Pumpskynz Gloskynz will be there to guide the way.
