Indestructible suitcase can survive being launched out of an airplane
"'Polypropylene fibres are stretched and aligned for extreme tensile strength, then woven and heat-fused into a single composite sheet. No glues, no resins, no weak points,' Mous explained. 'This self-reinforced structure lets the shell flex under pressure instead of cracking, dispersing impact energy and rebounding to shape. 'It stays tough across extreme temperatures, resisting brittleness in the cold and softening in the heat.'"
"'Most hardshell cases fail the same way,' the company epxlained. 'Thick, heavy shells that crack after a few drops. Wobbly handles, noisy wheels and zips that give way under pressure. 'Travel's demanding enough without your suitcase letting you down. So, we applied everything we've learned from engineering high-performance phone cases and gear - to build one that doesn't.'"
Mous offers an indestructible hardshell suitcase built from UltraMatrix, a self-reinforced polypropylene composite originally developed for aerospace use. Polypropylene fibres are stretched, aligned for tensile strength, then woven and heat-fused into a single composite sheet without glues or resins, producing no weak points. The shell flexes under pressure to disperse impact energy and rebound to shape, remaining tough across extreme temperatures. The suitcase survived a test of being launched from a plane with only a few scratches. The complete bag weighs six pounds (2.8kg) and aims to eliminate cracking shells, wobbly handles, noisy wheels and weak zips.
