Default Aftermarket high-tech Bag Developer (USA-made) wants your wishlist.

Hi folks,
I am a designer of semi-rigid (or semi-soft, if you prefer) bag systems
for several different industries. I work closely with Foarm, Inc. of
Santa Barbara, CA. Foarm's products are designed and made right there in SB.

The basic technology employed is usually referred to as 'EVA Bags' however
Foarm focus on higher-end composites that do NOT contain Vinyl.
The result is that we can create bags, holsters, cases and bins that are
both structural AND yet compliant, user-friendly and UV/weather resistant.

It is also practical to offer this technology with knife-proof materials
and lockable access for un-attended Segs.

In case you were wondering WHY there seem to be no aftermarket
bag options custom-designed for Segway applications, it is because the
Segway market for bag systems is too small to attract Chinese mfgs.
Chinese manufacturers have minimums that make custom designs for
Segway models unprofitable for them. - But not for us. We can do
moderate volumes of bags very efficiently in the US.

I have started a file for Segway owner comments regarding bag systems
and I would like to extend an invitation for comments on the subject.
Comments should be made through this forum exclusively to ensure
that the ideas or suggestions expressed are not considered proprietary.

I can't promise I'll develop aftermarket bag systems for this application
but that will depend substantially upon YOUR feedback and the percieved need.
Best Regards.
Jeff Krause
My page count is under 5 (newbie) so for now just search google for:
Custom EVA Bags (exact phrase) if you want to research Foarm or myself.
