Custom Shipping Cases

How Our Custom Design Process Works

The first step in our custom shipping case design process is to have a conversation with our customers to discuss what type of case they are looking for and any shipping challenges they are facing (such as heavy equipment or frequent travel). During this discussion, we will also look for any issues the customer may not have considered, like whether the case will fit through a standard door or meet airline requirements for checked bags.

We Work One-on-One With Customers to Create Custom Cases

Once we’ve concepted an initial design, the next step in the process is for the customer to send us the dimensions for all of the items they plan to store in the custom shipping case. Manufacturers often supply solid modeling files for precise detailing. Our solid modeling technology is another benefit that sets Wilson Case apart from other manufacturers—there is no need to send your equipment to our facility for a precise fit.

With the item’s dimensions in mind, our engineers use the SolidWorks 3D CAD program to model the case. We are then able to send a detailed 3D virtual prototype to our customer so that they can see exactly what their case will look like, right down to the placement of the handles and holes.

After the customer’s approval of our design, we take the same files we presented to the customer and convert them to CNC computer control language, which allows us to cut the case materials on our machines with precision down to the thousandths of an inch. Plus, we only use the highest-quality materials when making our shipping cases so they’ll withstand heavy-duty usage and frequent travel.

Customers Define Dimensions, Colors, Labeling, and Security Features

By involving the customer in our design process, we can create custom shipping cases that address their specific packaging pain points while remaining conscious of their budget and important deadlines. We don’t shy away from a challenge—we’ve manufactured unique, innovative cases to safely transport all kinds of fragile, heavy, and valuable equipment. We’ve made custom shipping cases for items as small as a microchip and as large as part of a space telescope, and all of our cases are designed to be simple to safely load, ship, unload and repeat.

In addition to the dimensions of their custom shipping case, we let our customers choose the laminate color, interior lining, labeling, security features, and mobility and stacking options. We also offer an extensive selection of add-on features, including pull-out keyboards, trap doors, ramps, and pressure relief valves. Custom branding is available too—add logos or branded colors to your case to promote your business wherever your cargo goes.
