COOPH releases versatile HelioFlex Backpack
Modular, sustainable and with a solar option – COOPH’s first backpack moves modern, digital lives.
COOPH proudly presents the fully modular backpack solution for active, urban digital lifestyles.
Adaptable, sustainable and solar-ready, the HelioFlex Backpack is made to enhance every day,
anywhere.
The founder of COOPH Ulrich Grill says, “It’s great to release the bag after 5-years of development. It is a
versatile tool for creatives and digital nomads and anyone else on the go.” Grill adds, “The Cooperative
of Photography has lived the active digital lifestyle for over a decade. We incorporated experiences from
our well-travelled community and tested the bag for modern life. HelioFlex has been with us
everywhere.”
COOPH partnered with SUNNYBAG, a leading solar panel brand, to develop the module for HelioFlex.
Using solar power means users can charge their devices and keep them going for longer. Perfect for
anyone on the move.
Made with 80% recycled fabrics, durable buckles and vegan cactus leather from Desserto®, the guiding
principles for HelioFlex are sustainability plus long-lasting quality. When COOPH first set out to design
and build prototypes, they didn’t just want to deliver the perfect everyday backpack – they wanted it to
stand the test of time. COOPH joined 1% for the Planet in 2023 as part of their commitment to
sustainability.
Always on the go? Short trip today? Taking the workplace wherever? No problem. The fully modular
packing system enables users to stay flexible, store all the things they need while allowing quick and
easy access to them. Incorporating innovative features that complement the latest digital lifestyle needs
and with the option of solar panels, the HelioFlex backpack provides users with capacity and inspiration
for their ever-changing adventures.
Designed in California, the backpack features distinctive COOPH styling, including the Rope Strap handle
– famous from the Leica Rope Strap created by COOPH. With a 15-liter internal capacity, FIDLOCK
magnetic buckles metal hooks – every facet has been carefully and thoughtfully designed. HelioFlex is
available with 3 optional modules which connect easily to the base unit, so users can adapt their bag to
their schedule. The base and all the modules are available in three striking colorways – a modern,
Granite Gray, a sleek, Charcoal Black and a natural-looking Moss Green.
The HelioFlex Backpack is available on Kickstarter from June 26, 2023, with different bundles and early
bird prices. Information about the Kickstarter campaign can be found here and more details about
