A Glasgow couple has launched a sustainable accessory range designed exclusively for DJs, producers, and audiophiles.

Christopher and Nicola Robertson set up MXER alongside their day jobs in the city after receiving funding from the British Business Bank.

Christopher, a DJ himself, noticed a trend among musicians using designer cross-body bags to transport equipment which often resulted in costly damage and loss of headphones and music storage devices.

This inspired the couple to develop their flagship MXER Pro headphone bag.

The bag, featuring two detachable compartments, protects headphones, USB drives, passports, smartphones and SD cards.

It also comes with a shoulder strap and a belt.

The modular design enables DJs to customise their wearing style and the detachable festival bag can be used as an everyday accessory.

The couple recently secured funding from the British Business Bank’s Start Up Loans programme and Virgin StartUp to cover manufacturing and packaging costs.

The MXER Pro headphone bag is now available for purchase on the business's website or at Glasgow's independent music retailer Rubadub.

The product is handcrafted from recycled water-resistant ripstop nylon, making it a more environmentally friendly choice compared to other bags.

Christopher Robertson said: "As a DJ for over 20 years, I understand the importance of protecting expensive DJ equipment and priceless music saved on USB drives.

"At the same time, I also know that people in the music industry can be quite trend-driven, so I wanted to create a unique product that blends functionality with fashion.

"Sustainability was also a key factor in the design, and we have been working closely with our manufacturers to ensure that it meets the high standards we strive for in terms of environmental responsibility and durability."
