Pouch System Expands Award-Winning CellGuard® Line, Giving Schools and Districts Flexible, Policy-Compliant Phone Management Solutions

CHICAGO, April 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As school districts across the United States take steps to restrict cellphone use during the school day, Luxor® Workspaces has launched the CellGuard® Phone Pouch, a signal-blocking storage solution designed to help schools enforce phone policies while keeping student devices secure and in their possession. The pouch option expands the CellGuard® line, building on the success of the award-winning CellGuard® Phone Cabinet, recipient of the 2025 EDTech Chronicle “Best in Education” award, to provide an additional solution that supports academic integrity.

Momentum around classroom cellphone restrictions continues to accelerate nationwide. As of March 2026, thirty-five states plus the District of Columbia have enacted policies restricting cellphone use in schools. Twenty-seven states have implemented bell-to-bell restrictions, requiring devices to remain inaccessible from the start of the school day until dismissal, and eight states have implemented instruction-time policies, restricting cellphone use during classroom instruction. While these policies are expanding, schools face a practical challenge: how to enforce these policies consistently in the classroom.

With some schools preferring not to take onus of holding student technology, the CellGuard Pouch is a student-managed solution that integrates easily into daily classroom routines, supporting flexibility as students move from classroom to classroom, without adding work for teachers or administrators. Students simply place their phones inside the pouch during instructional time, keeping devices in their possession. RFID signal-blocking material prevents phones from receiving calls, messages, or notifications while inside the pouch by stopping incoming signals, allowing students to maintain possession of their devices while eliminating alerts and digital interruptions that disrupt instruction.

The pouch is constructed from reinforced fabric designed for daily use and features a hook-and-loop closure that produces a loud, audible sound when opened, allowing teachers to quickly identify when a pouch has been accessed during instruction. A lockable D-ring allows schools or students to secure the pouch when needed. The pouch measures approximately 9 inches by 5 inches, fitting most smartphones and smartwatches.

Recent data from a CellGuard survey of 150 K–12 teachers underscores the scale of the issue:

52% say student cellphone use is a major classroom distraction62% say their school is likely to adopt a device-management solution89% say structured phone storage improves classroom focus

“Schools are implementing cellphone restrictions quickly, but consistent enforcement has proven difficult,” said Adam Smith, President of Luxor Workspaces. “The CellGuard Phone Pouch offers a simple, effective solution that’s easy to implement, aligns with school policies, and works seamlessly from day one.”

The CellGuard Phone Pouch expands Luxor Workspaces’ CellGuard classroom device management line, which also includes secure storage cabinets used by schools nationwide to manage student devices and support distraction-free learning environments.

The CellGuard Phone Pouch is available starting at only $16.99 per pouch, with bulk discounts available through Luxor Workspaces and authorized education distributors. Resellers interested in carrying the collection can apply through Luxor’s Authorized Partner Program.

Leading Kids’ Bike Brand Reinforces Commitment to Longevity and Sustainability

AUSTIN, Texas, April 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Earth Day, woom, the premium children’s bike company known for its lightweight, high-quality designs, today announced the launch of woom Exchange, its official branded resale marketplace in partnership with Archive, the leading technology platform powering branded resale.

The announcement reinforces woom’s commitment to sustainability by extending product life cycles and reducing waste. woom bikes are engineered with premium materials and thoughtful design, making them ideal for multiple riders over time, and woom Exchange provides a brand-backed way to keep each bike in circulation longer, maximizing its lifespan while helping more families experience the joy of cycling.

Launching in phases beginning mid-May, woom Exchange will first enable customers to list pre-owned bikes on woom.com, followed by opening the platform for purchases of authenticated, pre-owned models, creating a seamless, brand-operated ecosystem that makes woom more accessible to a broader community.

As demand for secondhand shopping continues to grow among families seeking both value and sustainability—with the baby and kid resale market projected to grow more than 150% in the coming years—woom Exchange formalizes and elevates an already thriving resale community. While woom bikes have long been in high demand on peer-to-peer platforms like Facebook Marketplace, woom Exchange offers a dedicated, brand-backed alternative designed to deliver a more secure, seamless, and trusted experience.

“woom has always been about supporting families throughout their riding journey,” said Lindsey Yosha, Head of Marketing, North America. “With woom Exchange, we’re creating a premium resale experience for families to pass bikes along, offering secure transactions, guaranteed payouts, dedicated support, and flexible options like cash or credit toward their next woom bike. In doing so, we extend the life of every bike and open the door for more kids to experience the joy of riding.”

How It Works
Built with simplicity and flexibility in mind, woom Exchange offers a streamlined experience for both buyers and sellers:

Sellers can quickly list bikes they’re ready to part with through an intuitive flow that captures product condition and recommends optimal pricingBuyers will have local pickup optionsOnce an item sells, sellers can redeem their earnings as cash or opt for credit toward their next woom bike

By offering local pickup as the primary option, the marketplace creates a more dynamic, community-driven experience, giving families greater control over how they transact while helping reduce the environmental impact associated with traditional retail and logistics.

“woom has built an incredibly loyal customer base around a product designed to last and to be passed on,” said Ryan Rowe, Archive co-founder and CTO. “With woom Exchange, we’re creating a resale experience that meets families where they are, offering convenience, trust, and flexibility, while reinforcing the long-term value of every bike. This launch expands our footprint in the kids’ category, where we see real opportunity to build resale programs that match the way families actually shop and think about quality.”

Join woom Exchange
Customers can sign up starting April 22 via the dedicated landing page to be among the first to access woom Exchange. Whether sizing up to the next bike or passing along a well-loved favorite, the platform ensures every ride can have a second life.
