HPA: dry bags, waterproof pouches and fishing pliers

HPA was founded in 2004 in Boulogne-Billancourt. The starting idea was simple: design dry bags and technical luggage for places exposed to water. The brand chose a tetrapod as its logo. This concrete block, set at the foot of sea walls, takes the force of ocean swell.

In spring 2009, the Dry Duffle 90 went into service with the SNSM, the French sea rescue society. This 90 litre bag was developed with the technical teams of the rescuers. It then equipped all of their crews. Other professionals followed: firefighters, French special forces, then bike couriers.

Today, HPA builds its bags in welded TPU around a patented waterproof zip. The Infladry 25 backpack is its best known example. The brand also designs marine-grade stainless steel pliers for lure fishing, such as the Seabassplier and the Gameplier. Rodhouse carries its bags, pouches and pliers.
