Here at Trojan Crates we custom build flight packing cases to order. Recently we made the flight case for the UEFA cup winners cup when it was travelling round Europe, so you know you are in good hands as we were trusted to create the case that was to carry round a piece of footballing history.
Our flight packing cases are always in high demand, people who have to carry round delicate instruments such as microscopes or expensive cameras then this is the ideal solution.
We have requests from people such as archaeologists who are off to some foreign country to do a dig and they want cases to bring home any relics they find safely, or to transport them to the local museum across rugged terrain which can often shake the cases. With our specially made foam inners we can ensure that the artefacts sit relatively still whilst they are in transit in our flight packing cases.
