For over 50 years, CP Cases has been designing and manufacturing an extensive range of bespoke cases and 19” racks. Predominantly for Military, Industrial and Defence applications.

With many years of expertise in the industry, we are confident we have the perfect formula. The innovation, durability and high-performance materials guarantee that CP Cases is the case provider of choice for mission-critical situations. Many of our products are accredited to MIL-STD-810, rated IP65 and carry NATO stock numbers.

Our West London HQ houses a range of in-house skills including rotomoulding plastics, Aluminium, laminating plywood, HPP, textiles, CNC foam machining, and label & screen printing. We feel at an advantage with everything under one roof; cutting down on lead time and bringing that bespoke attention to detail to our service from start to finish.

An extensive selection of options includes climate control (compressor and thermoelectric air conditioning units), EMC shielding; fire resistance, and anti-static capabilities. We are constantly developing and refining our product range, pioneering the most effective preventative solutions for weather resistance, water ingress, rough handling and severe impact.

Designed for applications in defence, marine, security, aerospace, oil and gas, satellite and telecommunication markets, Amazon protective cases are tough, lightweight and customisable to meet various client needs.
Amazon ruggedised enclosures combine the tough resilience of a rotomoulded case with an aluminium rack frame (an optional stainless steel frame is available) which is suspended by eight (or 16 as an option) anti-vibration mounts.
A lightweight, 19in ruggedised aluminium electronic transit rack, specifically designed for commercial and military applications when protection against physical, climatic and electromagnetic hazards are required, and where weight, strength and portability are critical issues.
Custom rotomoulded products share many of the benefits of the ruggedised Amazon range. This includes being resistant to impact, water and dust ingress.
COOL Portable Air Conditioning units are designed to provide a simple, effective solution for the issue of transportable air cooling for essential equipment in a simple, customisable, rack-mounted system.
Alucurve case is constructed without an edge corner. This off-edge welding and innovative corner feature provides ultimate strength and safety in use - shown with custom-made foam inserts.
Airship is unique in its class, a super lightweight protective case that offers significant weight saving against size and will achieve weight/volume ratios of better than 20kg/m3. The product is extremely flexible and can be built according to customers’ needs and applications. It has an outer rugged textile container with a honeycomb polypropylene inner construction and laminated structure providing rigidity and strength to safeguard the contents.
CP Cases can create foam inserts to meet exacting project requirements for colour, multi-layering and special properties. Foam inserts are an essential part of protective packaging, surrounding and supporting the product itself. The selection of appropriate foam types and densities is critical in ensuring the safety of a case contents. Our capabilities to design, develop and manufacture the most effective foam support or pack for each individual application involves processes such as punching, stamping, CNC routing, hand-forming and sculpturing.

CP Cases’ products are available in a wide range of standard sizes, and our UK-based design team can create a custom solution to meet (almost) any application your product requires.

The Design Process

Our design process and protocols ensure the utmost product integrity during the manufacturing process. In addition to robust procedures and quality assurance processes, we are ISO 9001 certified providing even greater client confidence.

CP Cases’ products are available in a wide range of standard sizes. Our UK-based design team can create a custom solution to meet (almost) any application your product requires.

Climate Control

In a world where organisations are working in remote locations with typical temperatures ranging from >35°C in the day to <-10°C at night. CP Cases’ range of COOL Portable Air Conditioning units has been designed to provide a simple, effective solution to the issue of transportable air cooling for essential equipment in a simple, customisable rack-mounted system.

Utilising CP Cases’ Amazon Rack and ERack systems and build processes, COOL systems are robust, easy to set up and use and enhance the operating effectiveness of the equipment or environment they are used in.

Durable, Bespoke Weapons Cases

Our Weapons Cases come in many standard designs or can be tailored to fit each application. Using Amazon Cases which are highly resistant to impact, drop and shock, temperature extremes and ingress they can also include features such as flame retardant, anti-static and infrared reflectivity.

Nitrogen-blown polyethylene foam inserts provide unmatched levels of impact absorbency and support for the contents. The inert nature of the foam means there is no chance of chemical contamination or corrosion to the equipment inside.

Foam Protection – Foam Inserts

Foam inserts are an essential part of protective packaging, surrounding and supporting the product itself. The selection of appropriate foam types and densities is critical in ensuring the safety of a case contents. Our capabilities to design, develop and manufacture the most effective foam support or pack for each individual application involves processes such as punching, stamping, CNC routing, hand-forming and sculpturing.

Foam inserts and protection are used with the whole range of protective cases we market and the different uses are boundless; from weapons cases and camera cases to medical drawer cases and instruments. We apply the client requirement first and the resulting protective case or bag, see our rugged textiles, is the ideal solution.

19″ Rackmount Chassis

Our 19″ Racks suit a host of markets and applications and are available as standard up to 18U, and where required can also be designed for custom made enclosures. Lightweight, strong and impact-resistant they allow our clients to have fully deployable and operational equipment on demand – our 19″ Racks meet the various and extreme demands of transportation in the most extreme environments meaning safe storage and protection of fragile electronic equipment.
