Protective products for your business
We’re here to help you get the packaging you need
As the UK’s largest distributor of protective packaging materials, we can supply an unrivalled range of protective cases.
Waterproof equipment cases typically boast an IP rating of 67. This means they can protect their contents from water (and dust) ingress, even when completely submerged. Additionally, many of these cases are virtually unbreakable.
With the wide variety of protective case options available, you can usually find one that aligns well with your brand identity. Alternatively, you can choose a neutral-coloured case (e.g., black or white) and enhance it with custom printing.
Any protective case you source from us, can have foam inserts added. These not only help organise tools and equipment within your case but can also offer precisely calculated performance levels (completely eliminating damage).
The range of cases available through us means that there is usually a suitable option from the standard sizes. However, you can also source flight cases in the exact size you require. As such, flight cases are a great option for protecting unusually shaped items, or to optimize the efficiency of your transport.

The ultimate protection
With thousands of brands, ranges and sizes, we can offer a protective case suitable for virtually any product, application and industry.
Regardless of whether you have particularly expensive, fragile, highly calibrated or even business critical tools and equipment, your choice of protective case is vital. As a leading B2B supplier of protective cases, we use our knowledge, experience and ability to customise any case to provide the optimum solution for our customers.
Our extensive range includes leading waterproof cases such as those from SKB and Explorer, Zarges aluminium cases, plus a range of lighter weight options from Hofbauer, Maxado and Rose Plastic. Our design and manufacturing teams can also produce custom flight cases that are the exact size and specification you need.
Besides this, our foam conversion facilities also allow us to add bespoke foam inserts to any protective case our customers require. These inserts, cut precisely to match specific tools and equipment and provide a calculated level of protection, can eliminate the potential for damage from shock, impact and mishandling.
As a result, our protective cases with foam are widely used by engineers, military personnel, aerospace technicians, field service teams and a huge range of other professionals.
