Cloud7 for Tumi Dog Flight Carrier: Redefining Pet Travel

Unleashing Innovation: A Sophisticated Solution for Jet-Setting Pets

German Dog Accessories brand Cloud7 and US Travel Brand Tumi have collaborated to create an innovative and stylish solution for pet travel. The Cloud7 for Tumi Dog Flight Carrier, designed by Petra Jungebluth, is a niche product that meets international airline regulations and prioritizes both the comfort of the pet and the convenience of the owner.

The Flight Carrier is a unique design that stands out in the market due to its focus on functionality and elegance. It is a perfect blend of Tumi's expertise in upscale travel accessories and Cloud7's knowledge in high-quality dog products. The design process took into account the needs of the dog during travel, from the check-in process to the flight itself, ensuring that the pet is relaxed and comfortable.

The carrier features a soft lying surface, a safety leash, and a shoulder strap that can also be used as a dog leash. It also includes a multifunctional ventilation system and a function that allows the inside space to be extended with a simple zipper detail. The product also includes an ID tag for personalisation, making it a comprehensive solution for pet travel.

The development of the product began in late 2013 and was completed in 2015. It is now available for worldwide distribution through all Cloud7 and Tumi retail and online channels. The design of the carrier is the result of extensive research into the most common IATA regulations for travelling with pets in the cabin, as well as considerations of the pet's comfort and safety during travel.

One of the key challenges in the design process was integrating the product into both Tumi and Cloud7's brand identities. The result is a product that matches the high design standards of both brands, while also meeting the functional requirements of a pet carrier. The carrier's design focuses on functionality while maintaining an elegant shape, setting it apart from other pet carriers in the market.

The Cloud7 for Tumi Dog Flight Carrier has been recognized for its innovative design and functionality, winning the Platinum A' Pet Care, Toys, Supplies and Products for Animals Design Award in 2017. This award recognizes world-class, exceptional, and highly innovative designs that contribute to societal wellbeing and make the world a better place.
