If you love to travel and at the same time think about ecology and your carbon footprint, you're in the right place. IMPACKT suitcases feel the same way you do.
Together for Change?
One swallow doesn't make a summer. But where else to start if not with ourselves? The good news is that today we have a choice. We can choose where to shop, what to buy, and how to treat our belongings. To choose quality over quantity and to think about how long things can serve us. Not to throw away unnecessarily and not to waste. The IMPACKT brand thinks about the impact of travel and strives to combine ecology with the sustainability of mass production. One swallow among many, and if you're currently looking for new luggage, you can join the flock.
Travel with the Lowest Possible Impact with IMPACKT Suitcases
IMPACKT suitcases aim to combine the joy of travel with a sense of responsibility, and they strive to fulfill this vision from the very beginning – that is, from the manufacturing process. They work with recycled materials, are extremely resource-efficient, shorten supply chains, and aim for the highest possible transparency in their supply structures.
Recycle, recycle, recycle
IMPACKT obtains and processes recycled material only from factories certified according to the “Global Recycled Standard” (GRS). Polyester is used for the lining, and the shell is made from polypropylene (PP) – one of the most commonly produced and used materials in the world. Polypropylene is characterized by high durability, longevity, low weight, and easy recyclability. The exclusively developed material blend for IMPACKT suitcases consists of the highest possible proportion of recycled components (46% shell, 100% lining) to maintain uncompromising product quality (and thus extend its lifespan!).
For illustration – approximately 1 kg of plastic waste is used for a large L suitcase. Waste that no longer pollutes the environment and serves a purpose.

IMPACKT Suitcases – Long-term Partners
Another condition for the journey to a better tomorrow is the long lifespan of the product. IMPACKT proves its commitment to the quality of its suitcases with an extended six-year warranty. If something does go wrong with the suitcase, it will most likely be repairable. The manufacturer has spare parts available, and the suitcases were designed with easy replacement in mind. After all, a suitcase can only be sustainable if it travels with you for as long as possible!
IMPACKT Suitcase Quality Control
- the wheels of a fully loaded suitcase must survive a 30 to 50 km journey over various types of surfaces
- the handles must withstand 5000 energetic lifts
- the telescopic handle must be extended and retracted 2800 times
- the shell must withstand several free falls (on each corner and wheel from a height of 1.2 m)
IP1 – The All-Weather Suitcase
The hardshell suitcase collection IP1 is the very first line from the IMPACKT brand. Its design is based on an already proven and tested model from the Travelite brand archive. Through various improvements and the addition of new features, the most ideal product has been achieved, boasting high durability, a modern look, and environmental friendliness. To help you choose the perfect suitcase, the IP1 range offers seven different color options. What's more, you can also personalize the wheels according to your preferences – they are easily replaceable, and six different colors are available!
Make Your Choice
Besides colors, you can, of course, choose a suitcase by size. Are you traveling far, for a long time, and planning to bring souvenirs? You'll probably need a spacious L suitcase. The versatile M is suitable, for example, for a one to two-week holiday, and the small S suitcase with a built-in USB port meets the standards for carry-on luggage of most airlines. The IP1 Mini Case serves as a practical handbag, and the IP1 Beauty Case can fit a smaller laptop in addition to toiletries and cosmetics.
