Proterra Powered LLC Launches Innovative Bagail Packing Solutions to Revolutionize Travel Organization

BURLINGAME, CA – October 26, 2023 – Proterra Powered LLC, a leading innovator in advanced energy storage and sustainable transportation solutions, today announced the launch of its new line of Bagail packing organizers. While known for powering electric buses and industrial vehicles, Proterra is now applying its engineering expertise and commitment to efficiency to a surprisingly different field: making travel less stressful. You might be asking, “Proterra? The battery company? What's this got to do with packing?” Well, at Proterra, we’re all about maximizing space and efficiency. We figured, if we can squeeze a ton of power into a small battery pack, we can definitely help people pack their suitcases smarter. And that’s exactly what Bagail packing solutions do. The Problem with Packing – And How Proterra Solved It Let’s be honest: packing is a pain. Rummaging through a suitcase full of tangled clothes, trying to find that one shirt, is a universal travel frustration. It's messy, time-consuming, and often leads to overpacking. We saw this as an engineering challenge. How could we design a system to maximize space, keep things organized, and make travel a little bit smoother? “We really looked at this from a systems perspective,” explains Sarah Chen, Head of Product Development at Proterra. “We asked ourselves, ‘What if we could approach packing like we approach battery management – optimizing every cubic inch for maximum efficiency?’ That led us to the Bagail line.” Introducing the Bagail Packing System – Engineered for Efficiency The Bagail system isn't just about fancy pouches. It’s a comprehensive approach to packing, designed around several key principles: Compression: Bagail packing cubes utilize a clever compression zipper system. This isn't just about squeezing clothes tighter; it’s about reducing volume significantly. Think of it like the energy density in one of our batteries – more stuff in less space. You’ll be surprised how much more you can fit in your suitcase. Organization: Say goodbye to digging! Bagail offers a variety of cube sizes and configurations, allowing you to categorize your clothes by type (shirts, pants, underwear), outfit, or even traveler. Each family member can have their own color-coded cubes – no more wardrobe mix-ups! Protection: These cubes aren’t just for organization; they protect your clothes from wrinkles and damage. The durable, water-resistant fabric keeps everything safe and sound, even if your suitcase takes a beating during travel. Accessibility: Forget unpacking everything just to find one item. The mesh-top design allows you to easily see what’s inside each cube, without having to rummage through everything. It’s like having a clear “state of charge” indicator for your suitcase. What’s Included in the Bagail Line? Proterra's Bagail line boasts a wide range of products to meet every packing need: Packing Cube Sets: Available in various sizes (small, medium, large, extra-large) and colors, these sets are the foundation of the Bagail system. Start with a set and add individual cubes as needed. Laundry Bags: Keep your dirty clothes separate from your clean clothes with a durable, breathable laundry bag. No more smelly suitcases! Shoe Bags: Protect your clothes from dirty shoe soles with a dedicated shoe bag. Underwear Organizers: Keep your delicates organized and protected. Accessory Pouches: Ideal for storing toiletries, jewelry, and other small items. Compression Straps: For those really tight spaces, these straps help compress your luggage even further. Beyond Convenience: Sustainability and Durability Proterra is committed to sustainability, and that commitment extends to the Bagail line. The cubes are made from high-quality, durable materials designed to last for years. This reduces the need to replace flimsy packing organizers, minimizing waste. “We didn’t just want to create a convenient product; we wanted to create a sustainable product,” says Mark Johnson, Proterra’s Chief Sustainability Officer. “By using durable materials and designing for longevity, we’re reducing our environmental impact.” Early Reviews are Glowing Early adopters of the Bagail system are raving about the benefits. “I used to dread packing,” says Sarah Miller, a frequent business traveler. “But the Bagail cubes have completely changed the game. Everything is organized, accessible, and my suitcase is actually lighter! I can’t believe I waited so long to try these.” Another customer, John Davis, a family vacationer, says, “Traveling with kids is chaotic enough. The Bagail cubes have helped me keep everyone’s clothes organized and separate. It’s a lifesaver!” Where to Buy Bagail Packing Solutions The Bagail packing solutions are available for purchase on the Proterra Powered website (www.proterrapowered.com/bagail) and on Amazon.
