ENSO
Built to return
ENSO is a modular, repairable suitcase system designed for a circular economy. Its special feature is systemic modularity, allowing components to be easily taken apart for repair, resizing, or end-of-life recovery of its three separable materials. Combined with a digital material passport for transparency, ENSO extends product lifespan and reduces waste, making sustainable travel practical.
