The eco-friendly
buoyant backpack

The Lontra project resulted from a meeting between Angelo Falletta, president of the ATA Natura aquatic trekking association, and Franco Luini, CEO of Tucano. Made with high-tech fabric produced from recycled plastic bottles, the Lontra backpack was conceived as a unique, eco-friendly project, especially designed for aquatic excursions in and around the sea or other water-rich environments.
