Art Melodious is generously donating an amazing instrument. 9 top and 2 bottom notes in Ember steel... ! - Details will follow.

World-renowned handpan players like Adrian J Portia play Ugur handpans. Ugur handpans are made of stainless steel and surprise everyone who discovers them. They are very easy to play, have a unique, warm & soft sound with a very long sustain. They vibrate much longer than usual handpans and are therefore easier to play for beginners, but are just as suitable for professionals. They are also increasingly used in meditation courses and in sound therapy.

Learning Handpan made simple and fun.

From beginners to advanced players, all the courses you need to play beautiful music, the easy way.

Back in 2012, Elena’s husband was looking for a high-quality and comfortable bag for his djembe, but he didn’t find anything like it on the market. Elena, without any experience, personally from A to Z sewed her first case for a musical instrument. The husband and his friends were delighted! And Elena had an incentive and a cherished desire – to improve this bag. This is how Namana Bags came about. A brand is synonymous with comfort.

ardcase Technologies is a company founded in 2011 with its headquarters based in Prato.

To tell our story, we could say that it all started from the magical sound of the most melodious and passion for music.

A trip to Denmark had transformed an inspiration into a concrete vocation.
To interpret the Handpan as a lifestyle, had been the starting point of this wonderful adventure.
To transform how it is natural to convey passion and professionalism when you are done with what you love into work.

The focus of Hardcase Technologies is exclusively in the world of Handpans and the optimization of solutions and methods in respect of their transportation and protection of these delicate and precious musical instruments.
We base our work on the search for quality, attention to detail and availability. Knowing that only through our ongoing commitment we can be the choice of many talented musicians.

Our production is therefore concentrated on the use of semi-rigid and rigid protection. We do not use soft materials or soft-bags because they do not guarantee the protection and security of the instruments that are so heavy yet delicate.

The main materials used in our production are EVA and ABS high impact.
Hardcase Technologies aims not only to the private market, but works closely with Handpan Makers from around the world. Developing together with their logos and the optimal configuration for their product. We also can offer a door to door service, with discounts on shipments and maximum assistance.

So, if you’re a Handpan Maker, do contact us and we will work together to find the best solution for your needs.
In 2015 Hardcase Technologies officially entered the US market and will be part of the great American family.
The surprises that the future has in store for us will be certainly many, both in terms of products and in interesting collaborations.

Daydreaming is the key in fuelling our passion!
