OtterBox Wins CES Award with Cactus Leather Case

In a move that blends sustainability, craftsmanship, and advanced engineering, OtterBox has introduced the Symmetry Series Cactus Leather Embroidery collection—its most artistic and eco-conscious line of smartphone cases yet. Recently recognized as a CES Innovation Awards® 2026 Honoree, this series redefines what premium phone protection can look and feel like.

Eco-Luxury Meets Everyday Durability

The Symmetry Series Cactus Leather Embroidery is crafted from sustainably harvested organic nopal cactus, offering a genuine leather-like texture without the environmental cost. Each case features hand-stitched embroidery made with stain-resistant threads that deliver both visual appeal and tactile strength. This innovative material not only reduces waste but also introduces a new chapter in sustainable product design.

Built for Real-Life Protection

Underneath its refined exterior lies the rugged DNA OtterBox is known for. The case delivers three times the drop protection of the military standard (MIL-STD-810G 516.6), complete with raised edges around the screen and camera. It offers an ultra-slim profile that easily slips into pockets and pairs seamlessly with MagSafe accessories, ensuring that sustainability doesn’t come at the expense of practicality.

Precision Engineering and Timeless Style

OtterBox engineers conducted extensive testing to ensure the embroidery remains snag- and abrasion-resistant even with daily use. The result is a case that maintains its beauty over time—balancing artisan texture with modern functionality. Available in five unique designs tailored for the latest iPhone models, this series invites users to express their individuality while trusting in reliable protection.

Design Recognition and Availability

“Being honored by the CES Innovation Awards validates our vision to lead in both technology and design,” said Trey Northrup, CEO of OtterBox. This recognition cements the company’s role as a pioneer in sustainable materials and aesthetic innovation. The Symmetry Series Cactus Leather Embroidery collection is now available at OtterBox, joining the brand’s legacy of redefining smartphone protection. Each purchase reflects OtterBox’s ongoing mission to create products that inspire, protect, and give back through its OtterCares Foundation. Pricing and availability may vary by region.
