ViVAX: The 007 Laptop Case, With an Italian Twist!
ROME, September 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
ViVAX, the toughest laptop case ever constructed, was released today and is available
to pre-order for EUR144 (US$186) on http://www.vivaxcases.com. The culmination of two
years' design and development, ViVAX is worth the wait.

Dubbed the "James Bond laptop case" by Mashable.com and the UK's Daily Mail, ViVAX is
nearly indestructible. It is CrushProof, ShockProof, WaterProof, SandProof, TempProof and
AcidProof; it can carry a laptop into hostile environments as well as protecting your
laptop from the stresses and strains of daily life. From summiting Everest, to navigating
the Amazon River, or simply on the everyday commute, the ViVAX laptop case destroys the
competition while keeping your information safe.
The company originated from a crowdfunding campaign which started a year ago on
Kickstarter.com for which the ViVAX team has made a video (http://kck.st/13uCbSP)
where you can see the case survive being beaten, crushed and even run over by a car.
Thanks to the campaign, ViVAX collected more than $50,000 in less than 30 days, which is
the record for an Italian project on Kickstarter.
More than two years of thorough research and material science are behind the success
of this project. Mattia Ventura, 22, is the founder of ViVAX. About the materials, he
explains "We have sourced an extraordinary resin in order to guarantee the
'unassailableness' of the shells of our cases from atmospheric agents, extreme
temperatures, corrosives, impacts, and from crushing." The product is made of three highly
innovative materials. The outer shells are made of Nex(TM), a highly resistant resin which
has been used previously only in aeronautical engineering. The gasket is made of a
material originating in Formula 1 and which makes the case completely hermetic. Finally,
probably the most innovative and important material in the construction of the ViVAX case
is Poron(TM) XRD(TM)-an ex-military patent; it is the only material in the world able to
absorb 90% of the kinetic energy generated by an impact. As Ventura explains, "The
material is soft but in case of impact the molecules instantly freeze, forming a sort of
shield, a shell which protects the object fully."
