Samsonite's Story

Founded in 1910 in Denver, Colorado, Samsonite began as a small trunk manufacturer dedicated to creating durable and stylish luggage. Named after the biblical figure Samson, the brand quickly became synonymous with strength and quality. Over the years, Samsonite has led the way in travel innovation, from introducing the first modern suitcase to pioneering hard-sided and lightweight designs.

Today, Samsonite is a global leader in travel essentials, known for combining cutting-edge technology with timeless style. With over a century of expertise, the brand continues to set the standard for quality, durability, and innovation in the world of travel.

Sustainability

Samsonite is committed to making travel more sustainable by continuously reducing the environmental impact of its products and operations. The brand has introduced several eco-friendly initiatives, including the use of recycled materials in its luggage collections, such as Recyclex™—a fabric made from 100% post-consumer recycled PET plastic bottles.

In addition, Samsonite works to minimise waste and lower carbon emissions across its supply chain, from manufacturing to packaging. The company has pledged to expand the use of sustainable materials throughout its product range, creating durable, long-lasting luggage that helps reduce waste by limiting the need for frequent replacements.
