Diggs Passenger Carrier

2021 – 2022
Role: Project/Design Lead, Pensa
From research to production liaison

With the Diggs Passenger Carrier, we were challenged to design a stylish yet safe and comfortable pet travel carrier for modern pet parents. PENSA designed the carrier with luxurious materials, advanced safety considerations, and numerous storage options. This product represents a perfect balance of function and fashion, a considered experience for pets and pet parents alike.

Safety was a primary driver in the design and development process. Whether traveling by foot, plane, train, or car - the carrier provides a secure ride. The product has structural protection to shield pets at all times, custom seat belt clips, and a buckle strap. The open and close function is designed with magnets, which makes it hard for escape artists to break out without approval from their humans.

The carrier is designed to make life easier for all pet owners. When accidents happen, the clean-up is simple, thanks to the design of the waste management solution. There are thoughtful design details for vented air flow, adaptable access options, and multiple pockets for storage. The carrier meets most airlines’ requirements for carry-on pet travel. It’s nimble enough to store under the seat yet spacious enough for the pet to relax during the journey.
