Folio and Laptop Case Made Of Printing Blanket & Fire Hose
Description
The outer skin of the Elvis & Kresse Laptop Case and Folio is ethically handmade from rescued printing blanket and is a perfect case to protect your valuable laptop. There is also an additional layer of closed cell foam, and the lining is reclaimed parachute silk, offering excellent protection for your documents or laptop. There is one internal pocket.
This limited edition, sustainable laptop case really makes a statement. The re-engineered black printing blanket creates a visually stunning textile that is strong and beautiful to the touch. This version of the case maintains all the design features of the full fire-hose version.
If you choose the personalisation option, this is achieved by laser etching directly into the fire-hose. We recommend not more than 30 characters. The font used is Times New roman.
Elvis & Kresse make bags and accessories from upcycled fire hose and military parachute silk. All items are made from reclaimed materials. The process emulates kintsugi, the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold. The refurbished pieces are worth significantly more than their new, undamaged counterparts.
In the 2025 edition of the Walpole British Luxury Awards, Elvis & Kresse was named Sustainable Luxury Brand of the Year.

People
Elvis and Kresse run their own production facilities with their own teams, therefore working conditions meet their high standards. They employ highly skilled craftspeople and pay them well. Elvis and Kresse tracks the living and minimum wage in Turkey and always pays its workers above both, and the living wage is also paid in its UK base. Factory visits happen every two months and senior staff are always available to contact remotely if there are any matters to discuss.
Planet
Elvis and Kresse’s printing blanket collection is made from reclaimed printing blankets, rescued from the printing industry, and combined with their signature decommissioned fire-hose. The use of reclaimed materials reduces the need for virgin resources to be consumed and saves useful items from ending up in landfill.
Suppliers
Elvis and Kresse run their own production facilities, one site in Kent, England and one in Istanbul, Turkey. The work is split evenly between the two. All of the material preparation and finishing happens in the UK. Most of the larger production runs happen in Istanbul, using the material preparation from the UK.
Areas for development
This is an exemplary supply chain and we have not found a clear and obvious area for development. We are proud to showcase Elvis and Kresse on Brothers We Stand.
