In-Depth Review
Eco-Connect: Your Entry into Circular Travel
Iberia’s Eco-Connect 21-inch carry-on is built for travellers who want to lighten their footprint without lightening their wallet. The entire shell is made from 100% post-consumer recycled ABS plastic – tough enough to withstand baggage handling but fully recyclable again at end-of-life.
Inside, you’ll find a full zippered divider and compression straps to keep clothes neat. The telescopic handle is aircraft-grade aluminium, and the four spinner wheels roll smoothly on most surfaces. An integrated TSA-approved combination lock keeps your belongings secure.
Iberia also offsets the carbon emissions from manufacturing and shipping this case through a certified reforestation partnership, making this a Climate Neutral product.
