Mobile Edge

Mobile Edge was created by a group of computer industry professionals and founded in 2002 by David Cartwright, President & CEO, and Steve Goodman, COO. Headquartered in Anaheim, California, the “mission” of this manufacturing company is to produce superior portable electronics carrying cases by providing style, innovation and function without sacrificing quality.

Originally specializing only in laptop computer related carrying cases, Mobile Edge has since expanded their product lines to include carrying cases for nearly all portable electronics. In July of 2009, Mobile Edge acquired the Sumo brand of carrying cases from HS International, LLC. Sumo is known for its stylish carrying cases that are geared towards Apple MacBooks and is the perfect complement to Mobile Edge. With the acquisition of Sumo, Mobile Edge was able to broaden their product range and also expand the laptop case category.

In addition to the large selection of products, Mobile Edge also offers separate product lines for men and women. Not only is the styling catered to men or women, but the design of the cases themselves are specific to either the male or female body. The human back, for example, is different between men and women so Mobile Edge designed their backpacks to be ergonomically correct for only one body type. Attention to these simple, but often overlooked, details has resulted in some of the best fitting products available.

Mobile Edge has become a leader in this competitive industry through the introduction of some new and clever designs. The most ingenious is the ScanFast™ product line that allows simple passage through the TSA checkpoint at the airport. Designed using TSA guidelines, laptops do not need to be removed from these ScanFast™ cases to go through the x-ray scanner. These cases employ a zipper that goes almost completely around the perimeter essentially splitting the exterior in two so it can be fully opened and lay flat. For those that travel frequently, this is certainly a design feature that should not be overlooked.

Another new feature exclusive to Mobile Edge is the Wireless Security Shield accessories pocket. Using technology originally developed by NASA, this zinc lined pocket has conductive fibers woven into the fabric that block electromagnetic waves. Just like the metal frame of your car would protect you from lightning, the conductive fibers in this pocket essentially shield and protect your phone and other electronics from wireless hackers. This feature also blocks calls, but in a high-traffic location such as an airport getting a voicemail later may be better then the alternative.

Mobile Edge is also proving that they are an environmentally friendly company with their “Green” Eco Initiative. Dupont™ has developed the most advanced polymer in six decades with the introduction of Sonora®, a material partially made with corn. Production of Sonora® requires 30% less energy and reduces CO2 emissions by 63% over the production of an equal amount of PA6 or Nylon6. By incorporating this material into their designs, Mobile Edge has created the “ecollection” of high quality and stylish cases that are also environmentally friendly.

Mobile Edge also offers the best Lifetime Warranty on the market. If you are not satisfied for any reason, they will do what it takes to make it right. With their wide range of products, innovative designs, Eco Initiative and Lifetime Warranty, Mobile Edge has the foundation to remain a leading manufacturer in the highly competitive portable electronics carrying case industry.
