4-stage Custom Engineering

“In a Peli-Hardigg project there are 4 main stages: evaluation, design, testing and manufacturing. With advanced 3D engineering software we visualize before manufacture how the container will look like from every side and angle. We can also check for any critical interfaces, like checking the shock mount fit and that the plates are well fitted, and how the container will fit around that frame.” Explained Phil Morrison, adding: “We have a very unique cut and weld procedure. In Europe we use a proof test facilities and we have our own military grade test lab in the United States. Our customers choose us because we can provide superior asset protection and better material handling for all type of equipment, from a small electronic device to a complete Typhoon tail container”.

Pelican-Hardigg™ cases are lightweight, watertight, heat- and impact-resistant and virtually indestructible.
