Hofbauer Quantum T Buying Guide

Quantum T Cases could be described as something of a contradiction.

On the one hand, they offer an appearance that is not a million miles away from traditional carry cases, halfway between a briefcase and the more modern designs seen in cases by WAG, Maxado and even others in the Hofbauer case range.

On the other, the cases are manufactured by blow moulding, to allow for a double wall structure that puts it towards the top end of performance associated with cases of this type.

In fact, Hofbauer Quantum T cases are amongst the toughest plastic cases available today, until you get to the ultra-durable, waterproof cases that include brands such as Peli™, Storm Case™, and Explorer.

This unique combination proves appealing to many businesses that require carry cases, but are reluctant to pay for over specified, fully waterproof cases that offer performance way in excess of what is often be required.

Available in a range of 8 sizes and 2 colours, the double walled construction provides an “air cushion” between the case exterior and the contents, helping to improve protection and minimise damage. This can of course be enhanced still further with bespoke foam inserts.

And whilst Quantum T cases may have more limited branding opportunities than some of the other Hofbauer cases, they still provide enough options to make this viable for use as a sales demo case too (particularly when selling to industrial clients).

Beyond the headline feature of the double walled construction, there are a range of carefully thought through inclusions which make the Hofbauer Quantum T a well-regarded, versatile case choice.

The below diagram and annotations highlight these key features.

The Quantum T range of cases sits in a particular niche in the protective case market, being stronger than most plastic carry cases but less so than the moulded waterproof (IP rated) case options.

This does however make it particularly suited to a number of applications, which have been listed below.

Equipment – from white goods to air conditioning, vehicles to communications devices – are prone to break at some point in their lives. And even if they are robust, they frequently need servicing to remain at peak operation.

What this means in practice is that many businesses need to send service engineers out to perform such repairs, updates or maintenance, and this involves taking tools and equipment out onto site.

Choosing a suitable protective case to do this can be critical to their efficiency and success.

Quantum T cases not only provide high levels of performance in terms of protection, but also allow for improved efficiency too (particularly with foam inserts).

Similarly to the above, surveyors and any other professions are constantly using metrological equipment.

Quantum T cases can again provide a durable, long lasting solution to the same transit of such equipment. The subtle branding arguably suits this type of application better (by not advertising the fact of potentially high value equipment to be stolen), whilst the usability and price points makes this ideal if only a low volume of cases are required too.

Although Quantum T cases could arguably over specified for this type of application (typically a lightweight plastic case is used, such as WAG Beat or Swing), the double walled construction can offer an advantage here.

The internal wall can be moulded to specific recesses, which can then house higher end products (such as expensive drills or tools for the DIY market) and be retained by the customer after purchase.
