BS.MCB - Modular Compact Backpack

Morangis, Paris, February 2016 – When space is at a premium in cramped conditions, or when working at heights with limited manoeuvrability, the new FACOM modular, compact backpack (BS.MCB) provides a robust and secure way to transport and organise a professional’s tools.

With dimensions of just 30 x 18 x 48 cm (L x D x H), this smart, yet compact, backpack ensures ultimate portability and swift access to tools, but without compromising durability, comfort or capacity.

Designed for a wide range of applications in industrial, construction or automotive environments, where light weight, safety and flexibility are essential – such as when climbing scaffold or working in confined spaces – users will find this sturdy new backpack an indispensable addition to their working kit.

Guaranteeing that the user’s tools are protected from the elements, while securely packed away to take up minimum space, the FACOM compact backpack has been manufactured from the toughest, water- and abrasion-resistant ballistic nylon fabric, with hard-wearing, easy-slide zippers for quick access to the tools inside. The durable material also makes the backpack easy to clean and maintain, for years of use in the workplace.

Ensuring the utmost level of safety, extensive security features have been built into the product, including compatibility with safety hoop ladders and FACOM SLS tethered tools. Furthermore, reflective strips have been incorporated into the external panels on the front and sides of the pack for extra security at night, or in challenging lighting conditions.

Featuring smart inner organisation, the transparent pockets give perfect visibility for the user to select the required tool, as well delivering added protection against heavy knocks or drops. Strong Velcro fastening tapes ensure that the inner storage fixes easily and securely to the bag, while providing maximum versatility and customisation for storing the individual operator’s tools.

“When undertaking work in difficult or restricted environments, professionals are looking for a well-built, versatile and secure solution for transporting and managing their essential tools. FACOM developed this compact backpack specifically with these operators in mind, incorporating a wealth of features into a robust, flexible and high-capacity product that users can personalise for their own applications – and will endure many years of extensive use,” said Garry Tzur, FACOM Product Manager for the Stanley Black & Decker group.
