Port Designs has announced the launch of a range of new laptop peripherals, specifically aimed at corporate and business users. Paris-based Port, with 12 years experience in the industry, recently entered the UK market with an innovative range of productivity-increasing laptop peripherals suitable for all laptop users, from personal and small business users through to large organisations.

Key benefits of the range include an increased lifespan for the laptop, thanks to the laptop case screen protector impact resistant system and a reduction of heat stress because of the aero-directive design of their stands range - prolonging hard-drive and battery life and avoiding processor impairment. (Overheating not only shortens battery life but also slows down processor speeds as a protective mechanism cuts in above certain temperatures.)

There are also benefits to the operator, as there is reduced stress and strain on the user, by raising the screen to the correct usage height through fully adjustable stands, that complies with Health and Safety at Work Regulations. Also to business there is benefits, as costs are reduced by extending laptop lifespan and increasing operator productivity and well-being.

The Port laptop case range all feature Port's exclusive patented matt system screen protector and include high-quality executive designs and can be easily branded and colour-coordinated to suit any organisation's image.

In addition, an inbuilt USB docking station, which enables all external devices such as printer, keyboard and extra mouse to be left permanently plugged-in is also featured. What's more the docking station contains a Transaction Translator that enables USB devices to run at their native speeds irrespective of the speed of other devices plugged into the USB, unlike most USB hubs which slow all devices down to the speed of the slowest connected item.

‘Poor laptop peripheral design can have a significant impact on the performance of both hardware lifespan and operator comPort,' says Port's UK Managing Director, Colin Brown. 'Port is proud to offer a unique combination of practicality and design flair. Our products and designs are constantly evolving to reflect market needs and take advantage of new opportunities. All Port laptop bags are designed with laptop protection (impact resistant) and user comfort (lightweight with adjustable handles and straps) in mind.'

A synergy between Logitech and Port has meant that a unique bundle is now available on the high street including a Logitech Cordless Optical Mouse (for notebooks) and Port Seoul Laptop Bag, delivering world class, high-quality products to consumers in one complete package.

Port's innovative range of productivity-increasing laptop peripherals - spearheaded by Laptop bags - has shown phenomenal popularity, both from corporate and commercial users, and are back due to popular demand. The Logitech Cordless Optical Mouse for Notebooks expertly combines a truly Portable form factor with advanced cordless performance to give users the ultimate control, for details see www.logitech.co.uk/index.cfm/gb/en.

Port's bags offer the consumer an ergonomic, patented impact resistant design, finished with robust metal zips and fastenings and all at competitive pricing, so now the consumer is no longer caught between a choice of dull monotone flimsy carry cases or ridiculously expensive branded options.

Logitech was so confident in Port's patented matt system screen protector technology that it selected Port as its bundle partner. 'Port was the natural choice once we had reviewed other possible options, no other mainstream Laptop Bag manufacturer came close in terms of production quality,' said Nikki Willcock Marketing Manage at Logitech UK Ltd. 'At Logitech we only offer our customers the best possible quality products for price and we would not bundle our products with anything less than the same level of quality.'

Peace of mind comes as standard. Detailed quality controls are enforced throughout the entire manufacturing process with a total of four control points per production line plus a twelve point control before packaging. The range has even been extended to offer a multi-colour option range to provide a stylish, individual touch which can be easily branded to suit any organisation's image.

As well as the standard laptop bag style, Port also offers the fashionable multi-colour laptop bag range that offers a unique, stylish combination of practicality and design flair. There is also the versatile new backpack for the discerning mobile IT user about town.

Eschewing the usual dull, corporate styling of laptop cases, Port's bags are colourful, eye-catching and designed to appeal to fashion-conscious consumers who want a cool, bespoke laptop bag to reflect their own individuality and style.

The new Port range will appeal to both traditional business users as well as fashionistas, creatives and younger users looking for something different, affordable and unique.

The Multicolour Carry Case Range is ideal for users looking for something to colour co-ordinate with other accessories. The Backpack range will appeal to students, travellers, skaters and extreme sports enthusiasts who might not be comfortable with the traditional laptop-bag look. Finally, the Messenger Bag is the epitome of laptop-bag cool and would not be out of place in a trendy Shoreditch bar or on the Parisian catwalks!

All the bags in the range feature robust metal zips and fastenings and ergonomic, patented impact resistant design all at competitive pricing, so now the consumer is no longer caught between a choice of dull monotone flimsy carry cases or ridiculously expensive branded options.
