Catch Your Drips — No more sticky floors

Years ago, Annette's dad, Syl Meola retired from a sales job in the electronics industry and took a job at his local church as the head of the maintenance department — that's right, he became a janitor. Syl is the consummate organizer and master of efficiency. He can fit more stuff in a small space than anyone we know. One thing he noticed was that whenever there was a reception or some sort of meeting where drinks were served from a coffee pot or cooler, inevitably some of the liquid ended up dripping on floor. The standard "solution" was to put a stack of paper towels on the floor to absorb the drips. But Syl wasn't satisfied with the standard solution. He knew there had to be a better way.

He spent months trying different solutions: bowls on the floor, buckets and pans. None of them worked. He started doodling, sketching, thinking and finally started building prototypes.

Eventually his idea crystalized into an incredibly simple, but effective concept: The Original Drip Catcher.

It's an inexpensive way to eliminate this sticky and messy problem.

After years of selling thousands of these products by word of mouth, we've finally helped him to put up a simple web site to let the world know about his invention.

Places like churches, hotels, conference centers and even retirement homes are now using Syl's invention. If you are part of a club or association who regularly has large events where drinks are served, check out Syl's web site.
