Product Overview
The Quadra Enhanced-viz Book Bag is a purposefully engineered accessory designed to meet the rigorous demands of the school environment while prioritising the safety of younger users. Constructed from a robust polyester fabric, this bag offers a practical solution for transporting books and school essentials without unnecessary bulk. Its standout feature is the integration of safety elements that ensure the wearer remains visible during darker mornings or late afternoon commutes, making it an essential item for the modern school run.
Key Features
- Enhanced-Viz Reflective Panel: Increases visibility in low-light conditions, providing an extra layer of safety for children near roads.
- Fluorescent Binding: Complements the reflective panel to ensure the bag stands out during daylight and twilight hours.
- Rip-Strip Closure: Allows for quick and easy access to contents, ideal for small hands and preventing the frustration of jammed zips.
- Integrated Name Card Holder: Simplifies identification in a busy school setting, reducing the likelihood of misplaced belongings.
- Webbing Handle: Provides a sturdy and comfortable grip for hand-carrying, ensuring the bag can withstand daily use.
Design & Performance
This bag is manufactured from 600D polyester, a heavy-duty material known for its high tensile strength and resistance to abrasions. This choice of fabric ensures that the bag can survive being dropped, dragged, or stuffed into lockers without compromising its structural integrity. The 4-litre capacity is perfectly sized at 38 x 28cm to accommodate standard school books and folders without being overly cumbersome for a child to carry.
The design is further bolstered by its ethical credentials, being both BSCI and Reach certified. This means the product is produced under fair working conditions and is free from harmful chemical substances, providing peace of mind for parents and school administrators alike. Despite its rugged construction, the bag remains a lightweight option, ensuring it doesn't add significant burden to the wearer.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Quadra book bag is highly versatile when it comes to branding, supporting both print and embroidery. With a generous print area of 28 x 16cm, it is an excellent canvas for large, bold school logos or community group names that need to be seen from a distance. Printing offers a sharp, vibrant finish that adheres well to the polyester surface.
For those seeking a more traditional and durable finish, embroidery is a superior choice. Our Telford-based team, who have been perfecting this craft since 1976, can apply intricate logos using an 18 tubular hoop. Embroidery provides a professional, three-dimensional look that is exceptionally long-lasting, ensuring the branding remains intact throughout the school year. All customisation is handled in-house to maintain our strict quality standards.
Use Cases
This book bag is specifically designed for the junior market, making it the ideal choice for primary schools, nursery groups, and after-school clubs. It is also well-suited for community organisations, such as scouts or sports academies, where visibility and individual identification are paramount. Given its safety features, it is particularly recommended for walking school buses or children who cycle to their destination.

Practical Advice
As this is a 'One Size' product, it is designed to be universal for the junior age group. When considering customisation, we recommend placing names in the dedicated card holder to keep the main front panel clear for your primary logo. If the bag is to be used for heavy textbooks, ensure the child uses the webbing handle correctly to distribute the weight evenly.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and safety characteristics of the Quadra book bag, it should be sponged clean only. Submerging the bag in a washing machine or using harsh detergents can degrade the reflective properties of the enhanced-viz panel and may damage the internal coating of the 600D polyester.
Avoid the use of bleach, as this will cause the fluorescent binding to fade and weaken the fabric fibres. Similarly, do not tumble dry or iron the bag, as high heat can melt the Rip-Strip closure and warp the polyester material. Simply wipe with a damp cloth and allow to air dry naturally to ensure the bag remains in professional condition.
