Terapin draws its design inspiration from the terrapin, the aquatic turtle like creature found in the lakes and rivers of North America and Asia. It is spelt with only one "r" to maintain a linkage to parent company, Teraoptix Inc.

Terapin is funky and compelling and in Chinese culture, the terrapin is considered a symbol of good luck. Terapin delivers the latest innovative electronics consumer products for the home and the "shell" cladding of the product reminds us of the shell of the friendly terrapin. The name is memorable. It has family appeal, fits with the physical form and kids will love it.

We emphasise the Terapin Masterbrand as the key discriminator, for visionary, enabling and high performance technologies that are approachable, individual and essential for a better quality of life that delivers its essence through the descriptive product family set.
