Custom Hard Shell Cases
Safe transportation of sensitive equipment frequently requires a hard case. Hard-shell cases are built from metal, wood, sturdy polymers, or combinations thereof to protect their contents from impacts, jostling, and environmental effects. Cases can also be designed with custom foam inserts that provide an extra layer of insulation for delicate items.
But cases that have the right combination of durability, maneuverability, and accommodation aren’t always easy to find. These cases must be specially designed to handle a wide variety of environments, from warehouses to truck trailers to the construction sites, movie shoots, concert venues, and other places that require the equipment they contain.
Custom Case Company designs a full range of hard-shell cases for personal and commercial transportation purposes. Our cases are often equipped with four wheels for easier handling. An attached handle simplifies these cases’ transportation, even when one person has to move many at the same time. Additionally, new developments in polymer technology have allowed us to make modern hard-shell baggage lighter and stronger than ever before.
Custom Hard Shell & ATA Cases to Fit Your Specifications
Travelling professionals need to be assured that their equipment will arrive in the same amount of pieces as in which it’s shipped. A lost or damaged piece of luggage could compromise their ability to earn a living.

Foam Inserts for Hard Shell Cases

Hard Shell is an Easy Sell
Our team at Custom Case Company can assist customers in developing a custom hard case that fits their needs as well as their budget. We offer a variety of cases, including ATA style cases, lightweight telescoping cases, wood cases, and tube shaped cases, that provide a high degree of protection at multiple price points. ATA style cases provide the highest level of protection and are constructed of 0.25″, 0.375″, or 0.5″plywood laminated with plastic for moisture resistance. Recessed latches and handles allow for level stacking and are secured with pop rivets reinforced with back-up washers. In addition aluminum angle reinforces container edges for added strength. Tops are either secured with a piano hinge that runs the entire length of the case or with multiple latches when a lift off lid is preferred.
Wood cases are a more cost effective alternative to our ATA style line of cases. Telescoping handles, wheels, and recessed hardware are just a few of the available options on this versatile line. Lightweight telescoping style cases and tube shaped cases are constructed of strong 0.080″ thick polyethylene. The top is secured by webbing wrapped around the circumference of the container.
The interior of all cases can be completely customized to suit the case contents. Die cut foam and felt lined trays provide cushioning and protection of delicate objects.
