Protective transport packaging is essential for transporting professional and expensive equipment. For example, flight cases have been self-evident for years for the safe transport of microphones, mixing panels, cables, etc. Traditional flight cases are made with a laminated plywood panels that are riveted to the extrusion. While this is strong, we decided to use lightweight open core panels that are bonded to the extrusions allowing us to make the cases with a much cleaner appearance, lighter weight and using far fewer rivets in the construction which gives us a build time advantage over plywood flight cases.
We finish our flight cases by using either anodising or powder coating on our flight case extrusions making them more durable than traditional mill finish extrusions that are used by most other flight case manufacturers.
Most other flight case manufacturers use either a plain aluminium angle extrusion, this has an outer and inner section, this increases the strength over a plain angle but is nowhere near as strong as our exclusive box section extrusions that we use.
Exo Cases™
Flight cases 2.0
Our EXOcase is a further development of the well-known flightcase. Combining the convenience and customisation of a fabricated case with the durability of a moulded transit case, the EXO case’s unique exo-skeletal design ensures maximum protection of high-value instrumentation and sensitive equipment during storage and transportation.
The beauty of the EXOcase is that it is both tough and fully customisable to meet your needs. Custom sizes, varying interior designs ranging from foam inserts to custom fittings, various coloured panels and branding configurations can be chosen.
Why choose EXOcase™?
Quality in design and manufacture are the corner stone of the Protechnic business, coupled with an impressive range of manufacturing capability comprising CNC Water jet cutting, UV Printing, Laser foam engraving and CNC routing.
EXOcase™ Features
We can offer a range of panel materials including light-weight polypropylene honeycomb where weight is an issue. For heavier duty applications we would use a phenol faced marine grade case panel. Aside from the unique design, the EXOcase™ has other outlining features:
Polyurethane corners and ABS profiles
Strong handles
Secure locks
CNC machined foam inserts
Smart case™
Our Smartcases are in fact "flightcases light". They offer the same flexibilty in design but with much sleeker profiles and are a lot easier to carry. The Smart Case is ideally suited to the smaller demonstration case market where cost, weight and aesthetics are key.

Rack Case™
A 19-inch rack case is a standardised frame or enclosure for mounting multiple electronic equipment modules stored within a protective housing. Each module has a front panel that is 19 inches (482.6 mm) wide hence the name 19’ rack case.
Rack cases can be made in a wide range of configurations to suit any components that you require.
Multipad™
The multiPad™ product range offers an ideal solution for the secure storage and transport of portable computer devices such as iPad, Surface and Tablets. We have been manufacturing cases for 25 years and, over the last 5 years, have developed the multiPad™ range.
