Aluminium Suitcases – Premium Luggage for the Highest Standards
An aluminium suitcase is the choice for travellers who value maximum stability and an elegant design. The robust aluminium shell reliably protects your luggage from impacts, scratches and external influences – ideal for business trips, long-haul travel and transporting fragile items. Also known as an aluminium case or metal suitcase, this material belongs to the premium class of modern luggage manufacturers.
Why Choose an Aluminium Suitcase?
Maximum durability: Aluminium is significantly more stable than plastic and offers the best protection for your luggage.
Elegant design: The metallic look gives your luggage a high-quality, professional appearance.
Longevity: A good aluminium suitcase lasts many years with proper care – an investment that pays off.
Security: Most models feature high-quality locking systems and TSA locks.
Character through patina: Small dents and scratches develop into an individual travel story – aluminium ages with dignity.
Aluminium Suitcase Sizes – Carry-On to XXL
In our range you'll find aluminium suitcases in all common sizes:
Cabin case / aluminium carry-on (55 cm, approx. 35–40 litres): Travels in the cabin in compliance with airline regulations. Ideal for short trips and as carry-on luggage.
Medium (M, 65 cm): For trips of 1–2 weeks, approx. 60–75 litres capacity.
Large aluminium suitcase (L, 75 cm): For longer trips or heavy packers, 90–110 litres.
Aluminium suitcase XXL (80+ cm): For extended travel or as a family trolley, from 120 litres.
Aluminium Suitcase vs. Polycarbonate
Aluminium suitcases are heavier than hard-shell suitcases made of polycarbonate, but offer incomparable stability. While polycarbonate suitcases flex under heavy load and spring back, aluminium models retain their shape even under pressure. For frequent flyers and business travellers who regularly check in their luggage, an aluminium suitcase is therefore the safer choice. Those looking for a lighter model will find suitable alternatives among our lightweight suitcases or in the carry-on luggage section.
Aluminium Suitcases – What to Look Out For
Material thickness: High-quality models use 1.2–1.5 mm thick aircraft-grade aluminium.
Locking system: TSA-compliant combination locks are now standard.
Wheels: 360° double spinner wheels with bearings run smoother and last longer.
Interior layout: Cross straps, a divider and zippered interior pockets for tidy packing.
Weight: Aluminium suitcases weigh 3.5–4.5 kg empty – this affects your usable payload capacity.
All aluminium suitcases in our range feature smooth-running 360° double spinner wheels, sturdy telescopic handles and thoughtful interior layouts.
Frequently Asked Questions About Aluminium Suitcases
Are aluminium suitcases better than polycarbonate suitcases?
Aluminium suitcases offer maximum stability and an elegant look, but are heavier (approx. 1–2 kg more). Polycarbonate suitcases are significantly lighter and more flexible – they absorb impacts. For frequent flyers and transporting fragile items, aluminium is the safer choice. If weight is a priority, polycarbonate is the better option.
How much does a good aluminium suitcase cost?
The price depends on size, material and features; premium models make up the upper price range. A good aluminium suitcase is a long-term investment and lasts many years with proper care. You can see the current price range directly in our product list.
Why do aluminium suitcases get dents?
Dents are a normal part of using an aluminium suitcase and do not affect its function. They occur during luggage handling at the airport. Many travellers see these signs of use as character. Unlike plastic, aluminium doesn't crack – it only deforms slightly.
Can an aluminium suitcase be scanned at the airport?
Yes, aluminium suitcases can be X-rayed without any problem. The X-rays at the airport pass through aluminium without issue. There are no restrictions at security checkpoints or for checked luggage.
What size aluminium suitcase works as carry-on luggage?
An aluminium suitcase used as carry-on luggage should not exceed 55 × 40 × 20 cm and should have a capacity of about 35–40 litres. Be aware of your airline's weight limits – aluminium models usually weigh 3.5–4.5 kg, which reduces your usable payload capacity. Find details on airline rules in our carry-on luggage guides.
Aluminium suitcase or aluminium case – what's the difference?
There is no difference – aluminium suitcase, aluminium case and metal suitcase all refer to the same product. The terminology varies by manufacturer and region. The term aluminium travel case is also frequently used synonymously, referring to the same shell material.
