Maezio® thermoplastic composites are based on a polycarbonate matrix system. Intrinsically tough, lightweight polycarbonates are a staple material for hard-shell suitcases. Reinforced with carbon fiber, they show less impact damage and deformation than aluminum, and their unidirectional fiber appearance avoids the woven look of carbon fiber. Thermoplastic composites also offer easy processing and a high production rate: TUPLUS takes sheets of Maezio® composite straight off the production line and attaches them to an alloy frame after a few simple steps like cutting and coating; a cost-effective way to mass produce carbon fiber suitcases.

Stiff and robust：Maezio® outperforms aluminum in rigorous safety and performance testing.

High-end optics: Unidirectional texture swaps the woven-fabric style for a premium metallic look.
