Protechnic have been manufacturing
specialist cases in the UK for over 30 years and
during that time have developed a number of
unique products that are ideally suited for the
safe protection of equipment in transit. Keith
Judson MD takes up the story:
It takes a long time to build a company from
a standing start and even longer to establish
a reputation for quality and service, but I am
proud to say that Protechnic has become
one of the industry leaders in bespoke case
design and manufacture. Much has changed
since the inception of Protechnic some 30
years ago, but we still hold true to our values
of continual development and improvement,
one of our axioms is that 'you should not let
your last good idea be your last good idea'
and our expert team of engineers are always
looking for ways to develop our products, and
incorporate the latest materials technology,
our design ethos is to make our cases
stronger, lighter and more cost effective,
always with a keen eye on what the customer
needs.
In our quest for excellence we have such
pioneering products as the Smart Case, Exo
Case, Nio Case, MultiPad.
The Exo Case, in particular, is a patented
product and is truly ground-breaking in the
world of transit cases. We take great pride

in the quality and service, and accordingly
we are ISO 9015 accredited, and we are fully
committed to the concepts of continual
improvement as enshrined in the latest ISO
standard.
We know from experience that a successful
company is not just about great products
- it is about the ability to connect with and
listen to the needs of our customers. Our
bespoke design and finish service enables us
to fully customise our solutions to match the
technical requirements. It is testament to our
customer service that we are still supplying
some very long-standing customers from the
early days of Protechnic.
Together with our bespoke products, we have
a vast range of injection moulded, vacuum
formed and roto moulded cases that enable
us to offer the perfect solution across many
industries including, oil and gas, aerospace,
MOD, medical, automotive and many more, in
fact just about any application that requires
the safe transit of equipment. Our capability
extends to foam engineering and we are able
to specify and design the case interior to suit
the requirement, based on the fragility of
the equipment to be housed and the shock/
vibration characteristics of the application.
Our product designs are driven by our
customers, from a simple transit case to very
involved designs for transporting highly
valuable and delicate equipment. We treat
every requirement with the same ideology
– what would be the best solution for our
customer. There are many drivers in a case
design, it may be cost, strength, weight,
protection, aesthetics, timescale and we
operate in a very wide range of industries
that bring their own particular demands,
but our skilled team of design engineers will
establish the essential criteria in sufficient
detail to allow our estimators to offer the
most competitive solution. Please contact us
to discuss your requirements.
