Growing Demand for Multipurpose and Compact Travel Accessories
As domestic and international travel has become more prevalent, Indian consumers are demanding travel accessories that are not only multifunctional but also space-saving. Convertible travel pillows, folding bags, and compact toiletry kits are becoming popular. Consumers opt for accessories that do more than one thing, like backpacks with power banks built inside, neck pillows with pouches, and luggage with removable organizers. For instance, in March 2024, Bitmore's eco-friendly travel accessories were launched by Kreol Travel Retail at Cochin Airport Duty Free, including products such as the Snooza Travel Neck Pillow composed of recycled plastic bottles and memory foam for maximum comfort. Moreover, the trend is particularly evident among business travelers and backpackers for whom efficiency and order take precedence. Space-saving options such as vacuum-sealed travel pouches and roll-up toiletry bags appeal to minimalist travelers. As weekend breaks and short frequent trips become highly popular, demand is anticipated to increase for lightweight, rugged, and easy-pack accessories. The focus is on functionality at the expense of nothing else, which has made minimalist, ergonomic styles so popular. With the ever-changing nature of travel, so too will the demand for accessories that balance convenience with functionality.
Surge in Smart and Tech-Enabled Travel Accessories
The growing inclusion of technology in travel accessories is revolutionizing the Indian market. GPS-enabled, digitally locked smart suitcases and USB-charging-enabled suitcases are becoming indispensable for today's travelers. For example, in July 2024, Arista Vault introduced JARVIZ, India's first smart luggage AI-based, with Follow Me and Ride On modes, GPS tracking, and anti-theft features, revolutionizing travel convenience and security. Furthermore, noise-canceling headsets, Wi-Fi-enabled portability devices, and multi-charging travel adapters are also hot sellers. Travelers are searching for products that make their travels more convenient, secure, and connected. Smart tag luggage tracking and RFID-blocking pockets in anti-theft backpacks are further increasing innovation in the segment. Technology-savvy travelers value convenience, and so Bluetooth locks, wireless earphones, and intelligent sleep masks are becoming more in demand. As digital payments and mobile apps become more convenient to travel, products such as smart wallets and electronic organizers are also becoming popular. The trend represents a general move toward making travel smoother, more secure, and hassle-free with the aid of cutting-edge technology.
Increasing Preference for Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Travel Accessories
Sustainability is emerging as an important driving factor for purchases, including for travel accessories. People are not just looking but are actively going for products containing sustainable and biodegradable sources of materials, such as organic cotton, bamboo, and recycled plastics. Travel equipment like refillable water bottles, biodegradable bathroom kits, and green traveling bags are registering boosting demand. More sustainable methods for plastic travelling organisers like wooden or cork-made pouches, wood-based toothbrushes, are also showing an acceleration. Cruelty-free materials and ethical production practices are leading the consumer choice, with increasingly more tourists choosing to buy environmentally friendly brands. Solar-powered chargers and energy-efficient travel accessories are also gaining popularity among environmentally aware tourists. The trend towards sustainability is not only changing product design but also packaging, with the choice being for plastic-free and recyclable. With heightening awareness regarding environmental effects, the shift towards eco-friendly travel accessories is likely to become even more prominent in the future.
