Built for the journey,
not for the shelf.

An O-ring seal, a pressure-equalisation valve and a 6 mm moulded wall — so what arrives is what you packed, after the flight, the truck and the last kilometre.

Capability overview

The case is only half the job

A transit case protects nothing on its own — what protects the equipment is the fit between the shell, the foam and the way the load is actually handled. Prestige Industrial specifies both: a case platform sized to the payload, and an interior engineered around the parts, the tools and the people who open it in the field.

01

Payload Definition

Part sizes, fragility, mass distribution, orientation, access order and how often the case is opened.

02

Case Selection

Internal envelope, wall thickness, wheels and handles, stacking, lid depth and closure system.

03

Interior Engineering

CNC-cut foam, dividers, trays, pluck foam and hard inserts with retention and finger access.

04

Environmental Duty

Ingress protection, temperature range, UV and salt exposure, pressure equalisation and drainage.

05

Transport & Handling

Air-freight dimensions, pallet fit, drop and vibration exposure, lifting points and tie-down.

06

Identification & Branding

Custom colour, printed or moulded logo, asset labels, ID plates and inventory marking.

Stacking & pallet fit

Case footprints are checked against pallet and ULD dimensions so the load plan does not waste a layer.

Handling hardware

Handle count and position, wheel type, tie-down points and lift assist are set by filled weight, not empty weight.

Serviceability

Latches, seals, valves, wheels and handles are replaceable, so a damaged case is repaired rather than replaced.

Reference data. Sizes reflect the standard manufacturing platform. Ingress ratings and environmental performance depend on the agreed configuration and formal test results.

Where the R-Series earns its keep

Sustained field deployment, repeated rough handling, external stacking and storage where a thinner injection-moulded shell would fatigue. Common in defence, emergency response, mining and remote infrastructure.

Rack variants

Rotomoulded rack containers accept 19" equipment on internal shock mounts, giving a transportable rack that survives vehicle and air movement without a separate outer crate.

Long-format construction

Wall thickness 3.6 mm through the long sizes to resist point loading and flex across the span. Egg-crate lid foam with pluck or CNC base foam retains the payload against end-impact. Suits rifles, bows, survey staves, antennas, light bars and long instruments.

Security

Padlockable hasps as standard; integrated combination and biometric lock panels available where transport regulation or chain-of-custody requires a recorded opening.

08
Construction

Anatomy of a sealed case

Every feature on a transit case exists to solve a specific failure mode. These are the ones worth checking before a platform is signed off.

01 · Waterproof O-ring seal

Continuous moulded seal compressed by the latches — the primary barrier against water and dust ingress.

02 · Air valve

Balances pressure between inside and outside after altitude or temperature change, so the lid still opens.

03 · Lid egg foam

Egg-crate lid layer holds the payload down against the base foam and absorbs lid-side impact.

04 · Pre-cubed foam

Scored base foam plucked to shape on site, or replaced with a CNC-cut interior.

Case construction — lid foam, base foam, latches and wheels
05 · Special lock

Labor-saving over-centre latch with self-opening guard and a lock hole for padlock or TSA barrel.

06 · Wall thickness 6 mm

Measured shell section on the larger platforms — the reason the case resists point loading and stacking.

07 · Rubber handle & wheels

Comfort-grip handle, plus wheels running on stainless steel pins that survive washdown.

08 · Name plate & stacking

Recessed panel for asset marking; lid and base geometry interlock so filled cases stack safely.

Sealed PP platforms are built to IP67 — dust-tight and protected against temporary immersion, subject to the agreed test scope.

IPX5

Jet-spray rated

Air transport and rack platforms are rated IPX5 against water jets from any direction.

Service range

Moulded shells hold their properties from −40 °C to +90 °C, covering hold, tarmac and desert exposure.

09
Packaging engineering

The interior is the engineering

Two cases with the same shell can perform completely differently. What separates them is the foam: its density, how the cavities are cut, how the payload is retained and how quickly a tired operator can get the right item out and put it back in the right place.

Foam options

  • Pluck foam — pre-scored cubes, shaped on site; fastest route to a working case
  • CNC-cut foam — machined from a drawing to the exact payload, repeatable across a fleet
  • Layered densities — soft contact layer over a firm structural base to control deceleration
  • Hard trays & dividers — for parts handled constantly or needing a wipe-clean surface
  • Anti-static grades — for boards, sensors and other ESD-sensitive assemblies

What we design for

  • Retention — the payload cannot shift, rattle or load its own connectors
  • Finger access — cut-outs let gloved hands lift parts without prying
  • Obvious repacking — a missing item is visible at a glance before the lid closes
  • Wear life — foam survives the open/close cycle count, not just the first trip
  • Serviceability — layers can be replaced individually as the payload changes

Branding & identification

Custom shell colour, moulded or printed logo, pad-printed part identifiers, laser-marked asset numbers, recessed ID plates and inventory labels — specified so that marking survives the same environment as the case.

From your CAD

Where models exist we cut foam directly from geometry, with clearance and draft applied for real-world handling.

From your parts

Where they do not, we work from the physical payload — measured, laid out and proven in a sample before release.

Fleet repeatability

Once approved, the cutting file is the master record, so case 200 is identical to case 1.

Applications

Where these cases go

Defence deploymentDefence & deployment
Emergency responseEmergency response
Survey and geospatialSurvey & geospatial
Marine and watercraftMarine & watercraft
UAV and imagingUAV & imaging
Broadcast and mediaBroadcast & media

Typical payloads

  • Test, measurement and calibration instruments
  • Cameras, lenses, gimbals, lighting and audio kit
  • UAV airframes, batteries, controllers and spares
  • Survey total stations, GNSS receivers and staves
  • Medical, diagnostic and sampling equipment
  • Comms, networking and portable rack systems

What usually drives the spec

  • The most fragile item, not the largest one
  • Filled weight against a one-person lift limit
  • Air-freight dimensional and pallet constraints
  • How often the case is opened, and by whom
  • Whether items must be checked in and out on sight

The same case rarely suits two of these

A survey crew opens its case twenty times a day and needs instant visual stock-take. A defence pallet is opened twice a year and needs to survive everything in between. Same shell, completely different interior — which is why we specify the interior separately from the platform.

Fleet consistency

Where a client runs dozens of identical kits, one approved cutting file keeps every case the same and makes a missing item obvious.

Mixed payloads

Where the contents change per job, we favour repositionable dividers and lid organisers over cut foam.

Regulated transport

Where the movement is regulated, lock type, marking and documentation are specified alongside the case.

11
Quality control

Critical quality control points

A

Moulding quality

Wall thickness, sink marks, weld lines, warp and dimensional stability across the shell.

B

Seal integrity

O-ring seating and continuity, latch clamp load, lid gap and valve function.

C

Hardware function

Latches, hinges, hasps, handles, wheels and tow handles cycled and checked under load.

D

Foam accuracy

Cavity dimensions, depth, retention fit and finger access verified against the released cutting file.

E

Marking & finish

Colour match, print registration, adhesion and cosmetic acceptance on visible faces.

F

Packed condition

Filled weight, closure, labelling and shipping-carton fit checked as delivered.

Sample first, fleet second

We recommend proving one fully fitted case with the real payload before a fleet order — loaded, closed, carried, opened and repacked by the people who will actually use it. Foam changes are cheap at sample stage and expensive at case 200.
