KATA Camera Cases, Packs and Rain Covers
KATA designs, develops, and manufactures quality, state-of-the-art protection solutions and carrying systems. Kata's products are designed around the human frame. It's not enough that the equipment fit the case, the case must also fit the user!
In 1983, two friends, members of an elite military unit, began exchanging ideas about how backpacks and military equipment cases could be made more modular and ergonomic. Based on their own field experience, they went on to design a line of combat-ready gear. They named their company KATA. Kata products are developed and manufactured in Jerusalem, Israel.
KATA established its reputation by outfitting Military and Security Special Forces with auxiliary cases, utility and protective vests and backpacks. Tough, durable, yet remarkably lightweight, Kata products are constructed to withstand rough treatment and harsh conditions over long periods.
For the past twenty years Kata has been creating high-end products for professionals around the world. In 2004, KATA launched the Global Digital Collection (GDC) for the Professional Digital Photographer and Videographer. The collection includes carrying solutions specifically designed for delicate digital equipment incorporating KATA's latest development-the unique TST (Thermo Shield Technology).
