I’m looking forward to the days ahead, when the world is healthy again and I can finally travel to see my family. When that time comes, I’ll have my PROJECTKIN luggage in tow.
I know that right now, not many people are focusing on travel and this post might feel a little off-beat. But I’m optimistic that the time will come again, and that’s why I want to share more about PROJECTKIN. They are a brand built on a strong foundation of things I can really get behind, like sustainability and design that will serve a lifetime. Right now, PROJECTKIN is donating 50% of their earnings to WHO to support those impacted by Covid-19.
PROJECTKIN is a new luggage and travel accessories brand based out of Copenhagen and specializing in sustainable products for the mindful traveler. Making sustainability an extension of the Nordic design tradition, where functionality and simplicity are key, PROJECTKIN dove deep into the world of materials in order to create a collection with the lowest environmental impact, guided by the highest standards for design.
At first sight, it’s obvious that there is something truly special about all of PROJECTKIN’s travel accessories because of their materiality. The KIN carry-on is made from a unique fiber-based bioplastic with biodegradable properties. All of the KIN fabric accessories and interior linings are made from highly durable flax-based linen — a textile resource that requires far less water to grow compared to cotton while generating very minimal post-production waste. PROJECTKIN also uses sustainably focused materials such as bonded hemp, which can be cultivated without the use of chemical pesticides. All of the leather detailing through the collection comes from metal-free tanneries, using only vegetable-tanned leathers made with organic tree bark and leaves.
And of course, their timeless, durable, and thoughtful designs support their main vision — to change the standards for products and the way people travel for the good of the planet.
