Custom Boxes with Foam Inserts for Valuable Equipment

When deciding how to protect, transport, and store your valuable business equipment, there are several options to choose from – wood crates, ATA cases, injection molded cases, trunk cases, and more. One the most affordable, yet still highly protective is custom corrugated boxes with foam inserts. This option has several benefits, such as:

  1. Protection – Custom boxes with foam inserts are designed to provide maximum protection for your equipment. The foam inserts are cut to fit the shape of your equipment, ensuring that it is snugly held in place and cushioned from any impact. This helps to prevent damage to your equipment, even during rough handling or transportation.

 

  1. Durability – Depending on your needs, the corrugated boxes can be made from single, double, or triple-wall corrugated. This helps balance cost and weight with the desired amount of rigidity and protection. If selecting a double- or triple-walled style, you can likely reuse the box multiple times as well.

 

  1. Customization – Corrugated boxes come in a vast array of sizes so it is easy to find a size that works great for you. In addition, the foam inserts can be designed to fit snugly in any size box and with any cutouts to perfectly fit your equipment. Lastly, you can choose from a variety of foam types, colors, and densities depending on your specific equipment.

  1. Cost-Effective – When compared to ATA cases, crates, injection molded cases, or any other highly protective packaging, custom boxes with foam inserts are by far the most affordable way to protect your equipment. In addition, they are much lighter than the alternatives which will further save you money on shipping and handling fees, especially if you will be transporting the equipment by air.

In conclusion, custom boxes with foam inserts are an effective way to protect your valuable equipment. They provide a high level of protection, are durable, customizable, and cost-effective. Triple-walled corrugated boxes are a popular choice due to their increased level of durability and reusability. By using custom boxes with foam inserts, you can ensure that your equipment stays in great condition, no matter where it needs to be shipped or stored.

ATA / Road Cases

ATA / Road Cases

ATA / Road cases are best for highly sensitive objects that are light enough for one or two people to lift and move around. Our ATA cases can be either wood or plastic siding and all have durable metal edging. All ATA cases come with custom foam interiors and can have any number of wheels, handles, partitions, straps, latches, and more. Our cases are split or pop riveted together to ensure maximum strength and durability. Learn more here

PE & Wood Containers

PE & Wood Containers

If you need something lighter or cheaper than an ATA case, our PE and wood containers are the solution. PE containers are made with a strong, but lightweight, plastic siding and no metal edges. This provides a lighter and cheaper option to an ATA case, while still very durable. Our wood containers are made with wood sides and metal edges and are our most cost effective case option, but are heavier than the PE version. Learn more here.

Trunk Cases

Trunk Cases

Trunk cases are perfect for equipment regularly transported by box truck. Our trunk cases come in three sizes: Small - 22.5” x 30” x 30”, Medium - 22.5” x 45” x 30”, & Large 30” x 45” x 30”. These exterior dimensions allow them all to fit neatly in a box truck for maximum capacity. All trunk cases include handles, latches, four swivel castors, and castor cups on top to allow for secure stacking. As needed, labels, dividers, and foam can be added as well. Learn more here.

We are a certified distributor for Pelican, SKB, and Nanuk cases, meaning we offer better pricing than you’ll find anywhere else. All of our injection molded cases are watertight, comply with military specs, and are built to withstand the harshest environments.
