Carry Cases

Your business can source plastic carry cases with foam from a huge range of options available at GWP Protective. This includes everything from traditional plastic cases, soft carry cases and even ultra-durable waterproof cases.

This means there is an option for practically every application and / or industry – from sales demo cases through to tough equipment cases – and everything in between.

Cases available include those manufactured by well-known brands including WAG, Hofbauer, Peli™, Explorer and many more. And, whatever carry case you choose, it can be enhanced with exterior print and fully bespoke foam inserts.

Please see below for the widest range of standard plastic carrying cases available from a single UK (and – crucially – independent) supplier. Perfect for use as sales rep sample cases or lightweight equipment cases.

Soft carrying cases are a great option for use in sales meetings and presentations, as well as for added value retail packaging. Please view the options below.

As well as the more cost effective, lightweight plastic carry cases, GWP Protective are also official resellers of the widest range of extra-tough hard plastic cases. Fully waterproof, these protective cases are perfect for applications where tools equipment simply cannot be damaged.

As the classification of “carry case” is fairly broad, it can mean different things to different businesses, industry sectors or even groups of consumers.

And whilst the large range of plastic carry case brands, soft carry cases and hard plastic carry cases – not to mention the customisation options such as foam inserts – means they are suitable for a wide range of uses, there are certain applications to which they are particularly suited.

One of the most common uses for carrying cases if for use as sales rep sample cases. Often referred to as sales demo cases or even presentation cases, this type of case is used to present new product samples to potential customers in meetings and sales pitches.

The lightweight plastic carrying case options are particularly suited for this as they allow for easy handling, whilst providing a good balance between protection and cost (they are usually fairly cost effective as they do not need to provide high levels of protection if used for this purpose).

The inherent design of these types of plastic cases also means that the customisation options lend themselves to use in this way too.

For example, custom foam inserts can be used to further enhance presentation of your sales team’s samples, including bold striking colours and even laser etched branding. It is also possible to add exterior printing (usually screen or digital) to ensure enhanced aesthetic appearance and maximising branding potential.

At the other end of the scale, some carry cases need to provide high levels of protection.

For service engineers or technicians that frequently take tools and equipment out onto site, it is imperative that this (often expensive) equipment does not become damaged.

As a result, many hard plastic carrying cases are used as waterproof equipment cases. This includes the range of options from case manufacturers including Explorer, Nanuk and of course the well-known Peli™ brands.

However, there are a number of cases that bridge the gap between the lightweight plastic cases and the more durable equipment cases, such as the WAG Heavy range.

Regardless of which equipment carrying case you choose – and GWP are happy to help with this selection process – these particularly benefit from the inclusion of engineered foam inserts. Including case inserts can vastly improve protection for the contents from shock, impact and mishandling, with the exterior hard shell of the case also protecting from water and dust ingress.

One final – and often overlooked – type of carrying case is the soft-shell option.

Soft carry cases, such as the Shell case range, will generally be used for sample presentation meetings (as per the plastic carry cases detailed above) but also for adding value to retail products too.

This is where a consumer product (or even B2B equipment where the item is going to a specific end user) will be supplied in a soft carry case that can then be used to store and transport the item as required.

This makes soft carrying cases particularly popular for consumer electronics (such as cameras for example) or for medical devices which are not likely to be used outside of a specific workplace.

As with all the carry cases detailed here, GWP are also able to provide these with bespoke foam inserts alongside other customisation options.

As plastic carry cases are used for a wide range of applications, there are typically a wide range of questions to ask before selecting one suitable for your business.

The below section covers the most frequently asked of these, but if you cannot find the information you require please contact a member of the GWP team (you can reach us on 01722 416 440 or email protective@gwp.co.uk).
