Vurenza was founded by travellers who believed a small, smart product could make every journey better.
OUR VALUES
Six principles that guide every decision at Vurenza — from the first prototype to the last piece of packaging.
Every part of the WheelGrip exists for a reason. Nothing is there for show — it's there because travellers need it.
ABS and TPE rubber were chosen for durability, not price. We build something that lasts, not something you throw away after one trip.
Designed and developed at HZ University in Zeeland. Local roots, international ambition.
No tools, no manual, no account. Clip, click, done. Under five seconds.
The people pre-ordering now make the first production run possible. That's not marketing — that's literally true.
Recycled cardboard. Small format, no unnecessary filler. The product deserves the attention, not the box.
Vurenza started with a simple frustration and a lot of ambition. Two students at HZ University of Applied Sciences in Vlissingen signed up for the minor in entrepreneurship – not because they had to, but because they had an idea they genuinely believed in.
During their travels they kept running into the same problem: spinner suitcases that rolled away on slopes, crowded platforms and uneven airport floors. There had to be a solution. The minor gave them the time, tools and mentorship to stop talking about it and start building.
What began as a sketch on a whiteboard became a real product – the Vurenza WheelGrip. A compact brake that fits any spinner suitcase and installs in under five minutes. No tools, no fuss.
We are still students. We are still learning. But we are building something we are proud of, and we cannot wait to get it into the hands of travellers like you.
At Amsterdam Airport, a suitcase rolls away on a sloped platform. That moment led to a simple question: why doesn't a solution exist for this? The idea for WheelGrip was born — a small, tool-free clip that locks the wheel whenever you want.
The Entrepreneurship minor begins at HZ University of Applied Sciences. Market research, user interviews, and first sketches. More than 60 travellers are interviewed — every single one recognises the problem instantly.
After months of iteration, the first real prototype is on the table. It clicks on in under 5 seconds, fits all common spinner wheels, and releases with one push. Tested on a 15-degree slope — the suitcase doesn't move a millimetre.
The pre-order is open. Early supporters can reserve their WheelGrip now and will be the first to receive the initial production run. Every pre-order directly contributes to launching WheelGrip.
