SKB Cases

Initially established in 1977, SKB cases have quickly built up a positive reputation which remains just as strong today.

Initially producing specialist cases for instruments (their very first was a guitar case), they soon expanded into producing a wide range of industrial cases and containers. These are now used across military, medical, sports, broadcast, and huge range of other diverse applications.

As an official SKB cases UK seller, your business can source and customise the full collection of these waterproof cases by working with GWP. Please see below for the SKB cases available.

There are a number of alternative rotationally and injection moulded protective cases that may be more suited to specific applications. Please see below for these SKB case alternatives.

SKB cases started from humble beginnings. In fact, the first case – used to transport a guitar – was manufactured in a garage in California in 1977.

Over the next 30 years, SKB cases have earned themselves a reputation for being amongst the toughest, most durable and feature packed equipment and transit cases currently available.

Producing a selection of vacuum, rotational and injection moulded cases, SKB cases cater for a huge range of industries and applications. Whilst this still includes cases for musical instruments, the range of specialist SKB cases also incorporates options for sports, photo and video, drones, electronics, and military applications.

This is also in addition to the range of standard industrial cases. With the SKB i Series range being seen as true Peli case alternative, the range of rotomolded cases and rack units also provides competition to the Hardigg options.

Put simply, whatever your application or industry, there is an SKB case to suit.

For the majority of SKB cases (and particularly the SKB iSeries) there is a wide range of customisation options that you can choose from. This is addition to the standard range of colours (including, uniquely, a very bright pink) and perhaps the widest range of different sizes too.

Whist accessories including shoulder straps, lid stays, divider sets (similar to the Peli Trekpak offering), organisers, and even bezel kits for mounting electronics are all to be considered, there are further options beyond even this.

Whilst standard cubed foam inserts are available for nearly all SKB cases, the inclusion of custom foam inserts can really take the performance and protection to the next level.

Tailored to be an exact fit to not just the case but also your specific products, tools, or equipment, Plastazote inserts can also be manufactured in your brand colours, utilise a shadowboard effect (aiding productivity) and include laser etched branding and instructions. They can even be designed to include calculated levels of cushioning protection.

Therefore, if your business requires high performance protective cases – and are looking for an alternative to the Peli case options – SKB cases with foam inserts could be the perfect solution.
