Hofbauer Xtrabag

Custom plastic attaché cases

If you are looking for a sample case with a unique appearance for your sales teams, you should consider Hofbauer Xtrabag cases.

Hofbauer Xtrabag is a range of plastic attaché style cases. Using a durable yet lightweight Polypropylene material, Xtrabag cases are perfect for presenting samples in sales meetings or for basic protection of tools and equipment. Available in five sizes and three colours, Hofbauer Xtrabag also allows for a range of custom options.

Unlike many other suppliers of plastic cases, GWP can offer the full range of customisations. From screen printing logos to bespoke foam inserts in your brand colours, we can tailor your Xtrabag sample cases to your exact requirements.

Hofbauer Xtrabag features

As with all Hofbauer cases, Xtrabag provides several practical and innovative features to make your life easier.

Ergonomic handle

The integral, moulded handle has been carefully developed to ensure both durability and comfort even when the case contains heavy contents.

Snap-shut catches

The snap-shut catches, available in contrasting colours, are easy to use and create a strong seal to prevent the case from unexpectedly opening.

Interlocking hinge

The interlocking hinge provides a much more durable alternative to many competing cases, which rely on a “living hinge” moulded into the case body.

Smooth surfaces

The materials and moulding processes used to manufacture Xtrabag cases provide a perfect surface for labels, vinyl graphics, and direct printing.

Moulded feet

The integral feet allow Xtrabags to be stored upright or led flat. Used in the upright position, they can help improve product presentation during sales pitches.

Equal lid/base split

All Xtrabag cases feature an equal split between the base and the lid. This means items can be stored in both parts of the Xtrabag cases, maximising space.

Mix and match base/lid

The bases and lids can be mixed and matched, including a translucent option that allows for easy viewing of the contents with the cases closed.

Hofbauer Xtrabag sizes

Xtrabag cases are available in five sizes, the smallest being 252 x 202 x 44 (mm) and the largest being 588 x 475 x 156 (length x width x depth). They are also available in three colours: black, grey, and blue.

Can I get Xtrabag in custom colours?

Xtrabag cases are available in black, blue, and light grey colours as standard. Translucent lids are also available and can be combined with one of the coloured options for the base (or you can have a completely transparent case). Custom colours are also available on request but are subject to minimum order quantities.

Is it possible to add branding to Xtrabag cases?

Xtrabag cases provide several branding options. Due to the smooth, flat surfaces of the cases’ exterior walls, it is straightforward to add labels, vinyl graphics, or even print directly onto the case itself.

What material are Xtrabag cases made from?

The smaller three sizes in the Xtrabag range (100, 200, and 300 case models) are manufactured from tough Polypropylene. The larger two cases, however (models 400 and 500), are produced from an even stronger ABS material. This is mainly due to the additional size requiring extra strength, but all of the sizes available provide excellent levels of durability and rigidity.

Can I have custom foam inserts in my Xtrabag cases?

GWP Protective almost always recommends enhancing your plastic samples cases with custom foam inserts, and Xtrabag is no exception. The addition of engineered case inserts improves the protection of your items in transit, can help identify parts or tools more quickly (even when missing), and the foam can even carry your company’s branding with laser-etched logos.

Are Xtrabag cases available with translucent lids?

Translucent lids are available for Xtrabag cases alongside the standard three colours (black, grey, and blue). These lids are a great option for showcasing products in sales pitches and also mean Xtrabag cases can be used as value-added packaging for retail (such as tool sets, electronic equipment, etc.).

Does Xtrabag protect from water/dust?

Xtrabag cases provide a reasonable level of protection from water and dust, making them perfect for everyday use. However, if you require the complete elimination of dust and moisture ingress (e.g., for very expensive or specialist equipment), then one of the heavier-duty waterproof cases is likely to be more suitable.
