Great British Design
12 Point Test
Great British Design is what we’re
famous for and this remains at the core
of everything we do. All of our designs
are bespoke and produced by our in
house design team based at our head
office in London Kings Cross.
Luggage is subjected to a huge
amount of wear and tear through
its life. With this in mind, all our
products have to pass an intensive
12 point testing programme to
ensure they can withstand the
rigors of travelling.
Tested
Temperature Test
+65c to -12c
Being located in London allows
us to recruit exceptionally talented
and creative individuals from all types
of design backgrounds, this in turn
keeps ideas fresh and helps us to
find new perspectives.
We are so confident in the quality of
our products we offer up to a 10 year
warranty. These tests ensure that
everything we produce can withstand
the knocks and bumps of the toughest
journeys. These are tests which other
brands often do not pass.
Luggage design is a fine balance of
form and function and can often present
huge technical challenges, usually this
is due to the ever increasing need
to minimise weight but still ensure
strength and durability.
