Tucano, the Italian brand known for its design-driven protection solutions for digital devices, announces a new distribution partnership with CMS Distribution, a leading specialist in consumer technology. The collaboration marks an important step in strengthening Tucano’s presence in the UK market and supporting retailers with a broader, innovation-oriented product offering.
For 40 years, Tucano has been designing bags, sleeves and accessories to protect laptops, tablets and mobile devices, becoming a reference brand in the consumer electronics segment. Today, Tucano products are sold in over 70 countries, with millions of units delivered annually.
Through the partnership with CMS Distribution, Tucano will offer UK retailers and resellers access to its complete portfolio — including the iconic Second Skin laptop sleeves, protective cases for tablets and MacBooks, as well as backpacks and travel solutions designed for modern mobility. The agreement enhances market coverage and supports the growing demand for high-quality, sustainable and design-driven accessories.
“We are delighted to partner with CMS Distribution, a respected player in the UK technology channel,” said Franco Luini, CEO of Tucano. “This collaboration allows us to strengthen our presence in one of the most dynamic markets in EMEA and to bring our design-driven, sustainable solutions to a wider network of retailers and end users.
