Tucano srl

Tucano is a leading Italian manufacturer of bags, backpacks, and covers for electronic devices. The company is active in the business, travel, and leisure markets. Founded in Milan in 1985, thanks to the entrepreneurial intuition of Franco Luini, its founder and CEO, Tucano was born together with the computer market, producing the first computer carrying cases in the late 80s. In a practically untouched market, Tucano launched a variety of solutions for the first compact PC in history, the legendary Apple Macintosh Plus designed by Steve Jobs and presented to the public in 1986. Tucano has continued to keep pace with Apple's innovative product lines, designing bags, backpacks and covers for the computer company’s most revolutionary products: the MacBook, the iPhone and the iPad. Tucano’s PC bags were ahead of their time in a world where personal computers would soon revolutionize everyday life. In the 1990s, with the marketing of the first laptops, Tucano created Computer Comforts, the first complete range of high-tech, black computer bags specifically designed to carry and protect them. Since personal computers came equipped with a mouse, Tucano was the first Italian company to focus on the mousepad. Colorful and fun, mousepads became increasingly popular and made Tucano a household name. The Milan-based company continues to focus on this market, investing in research and development and the production of innovative and "smart"products designed for a customer base of digital-natives. In a short time, in addition to protection, the company also focused on color, offering new collections that revolutionized the concept of high-tech computer bags and achieved unexpected results. Design, careful choices in terms of the materials used and the adoption of sophisticated accents have generated exclusive and iconic products that brought the brand international recognition: the Second Skin® and the Work Out bag unequivocally express the spirit of this trend-setting design. Since 2017, Tucano has focused on sustainability and reducing its environmental impact through the adoption of recycled plastic or compostable materials for a substantial portion of its product catalog. These certified materials and accessories are in line with new European regulations. Taking on the challenge of ethical and environmentally-friendly production can play a crucial role in safeguarding the planet and is also part of a larger program. Tucano's focus on social and environmental responsibility is part of a corporate program that envisions a complete transformation, which also extends to the company's internal operations. This commitment has resulted in a series of concrete, green initiatives such as controlled waste management and reduction as well as energy requalification. Tucano has an extensive presence in more than 60 countries, selling approximately 5 million products annually. It’s primary target markets are consumers who use Apple, as well as the education, tech, travel and lifestyle channels. In addition to its headquarters in Milan’s Piazza Castello, Tucano has four international branches based in New York, Dongguan, Bangalore and Mendrisio. Tucano’s products are manufactured in China, where there is a specialized quality-control sector that monitors all stages of the production process.
