Legendary Laptop Case Protection

Brenthaven sets the standard for superior protection for your notebook computer. We offer three levels of protection:

CORE™

Our highest level of protection system, the CORE™ offers 6-sided protection and wraps your notebook computer in 1.5" of high-density foam. A Plasticore frame protects your notebook from side and corner impact. See our cases that feature the CORE™ protection system.

HDF™

The High Density Foam Protection system offers a lightweight cradle system that wraps the notebook in up to 1" of foam, while suspending it above the bottom of the case. See our cases that feature the Superior Protection system.

EZ-GRIP™

The Brenthaven EZ-Grip™ offers protection without bulk. This patent- pending handle system makes it easy to carry your Brenthaven sleeve so it doesn't slip out of your hands. See products that feature the EZ Grip system.

LESS IS MORE

See how Brenthaven stacks up against the competition. Lower scores mean less G-Force on your laptop... and that's a good thing.

G-FORCE RATING	40 (Best Protection)	160
Pilot's Bag Core	42.53 G	DROP TEST METHOD To conduct the tests, all cases were sent to an INDEPENDENT testing lab, Pack Edge Development, to perform free-fall drop tests. Each case was equipped with a laptop mock-up weighing 2.5 lbs and dropped from a desk height of 32 inches. A PCB General Purpose 1 – Axis Accelerometer was used to measure the G-forces generated upon impact. A LOWER G-FORCE RATING MEANS BETTER DROP PROTECTION. Each case was dropped five times to obtain a proper statistical average.
Metrolite Shoulder Case Core	69.8 G
HDF Triload	72.81 G
Codi Diplomat Shoulder Case	73.91 G
Targus Deluxe Shoulder Case	110.72 G
Timbuk2 Classic Messenger Bag	117.2 G
