Current bags for such as high end sports goods or military, for example, protect the goods to a certain degree, but this is usually not adequate in high stress environments, such as air travel or in military operations.

The UK company have selected a novel combination of cutting edge materials that, when used in conjunction with their unique designs, provide much improved protection and will dramatically reduce the damage to goods in transit.

The UK company is small but experienced, and has a particular interest in manufacturers working with sporting bags, or bags with logistics or military applications, who might be interested in licensing the technology to create the bags, cases and covers via licensing agreement.
