Best-selling waterproof cases
Regardless of your industry or profession, Peli Protector cases are ideal if you require a rugged or waterproof case to protect tools or equipment.
Peli™ Protector Case™ are the original hard equipment cases. They are waterproof, dustproof, impact-resistant and exceptionally durable. Available in 47 sizes, Peli cases are suitable for military, aerospace, marine, broadcast, and many other applications. All Peli Protector cases include a full lifetime guarantee.

Peli Protector case features
Despite being the original moulded waterproof case, Peli Protector still boasts various innovative, unique features.
Double throw latches
These clasps are extremely strong, remaining tight even during extensive drop and impact testing, while allowing easy opening and access to the cases’ contents.
O-ring seal
Manufactured from a flexible polymer, the tongue and groove design of the O ring creates an IP67-rated, water and dust-tight seal.
Easy grip handles
The ergonomic and well-designed handles also include a soft coating that enhances comfort when using the cases.
Stainless steel pins (hinges)
The Peli Protector case hinges use stainless steel pins to improve durability and longevity and ensure smooth lid opening and closing.
Padlock-able eyelets
The padlock-able eyelets are reinforced, providing extra strength and resistance to cutting. This feature improves the security of sensitive and expensive items.
Pressure release valve
The automatic pressure release valve equalises pressure between the inside and outside of the case, preventing it from becoming deformed.
Quiet roll wheels
Most larger cases include wheels to improve handling. Steel ball bearings reduce noise, ensure a smoother operation, and enhance longevity.
Copolymer resin shell
The copolymer resin, used with an open-cell core and solid-wall construction, creates an incredibly tough and durable case, that is also resistant to most chemicals.

Custom Peli cases
Thanks to a wide range of customisation options, we are one of the few businesses in the UK that can offer genuinely bespoke Peli cases.
Custom Peli case foam
Using Peli case foam inserts provides your kit with the highest levels of protection. Your foam inserts – manufactured with Plastazote – provide precise levels of protection.
Printed Peli cases
Unlike many Peli case alternatives, Protector cases feature a large, smooth area that can easily have branding applied to it (through silkscreen or digital print methods).
Peli bezels
Peli Protector cases can house specialist electronics equipment by adding bezel kits or mounting panels. These screw-in while maintaining the cases’ watertight properties.
Lid organiser
A Peli lid organiser is available for specific Protector cases (typically the smaller models), which allows for improved organisation. These fasten to the case with screws or velcro.
Shoulder strap
A Peli Protector case shoulder strap can be attached to smaller models, allowing easy handling. The strap extends from 106cm to 201cm in length.
Padded dividers
Configurable padded dividers (also known as Trekpak) allow for improved organisation. They also help prevent damage by separating and cushioning items.
Pick N Pluck
Peli invented the original cubed foam inserts, naming them “pick n pluck.” These inserts allow you to quickly create semi-bespoke foam protection (ideal for one-offs).
Engineered foam inserts
Available for all cases
High-quality foam inserts can enhance any Peli case (or alternative) your business uses.
Expert foam design
Work alongside an experienced design team to create custom-made Peli case inserts.
Aesthetic appeal
A vast range of colour and branding options (including laser-etched logos) enable a striking visual appearance.
UK manufactured
All foam inserts/packaging are manufactured in house at GWP, ensuring the highest quality.
Pelican Case UK suppliers
We are different from most of the Pelican case UK distributors at GWP Protective. But in a good way.
Firstly, being independent allows you to choose from the broadest range of waterproof protective cases from a single source. It also means you can source aluminium, lightweight plastic, and custom-built cases (e.g. flight cases) from us.
Secondly, we can provide impartial advice on the best protective case for your application. No trying to sell you our own products or expensive accessories—just good, honest advice.
Thirdly, GWP also designs and manufactures foam inserts. Sourcing your case and foam from a single supplier improves quality and compatibility, as well as reduces admin. And the price is better, too!
Fourthly, we have a well-invested, experienced design department that can create a case and foam insert that exceeds your expectations and brief.
Finally, you can take advantage of a wide range of services, such as stock holding, mobile designers visiting your premises, and even a full audit of your current protective packaging setup.
So why not give us a call to see how all of this can help your business?
