General Dynamics as one of the world’s most prominent military contractors, is associated with the design, development, and manufacturing of aircraft, missiles, combat vehicles, advanced weapon systems, and related services. As of 2019, it was the fifth-largest defense contractor in the United States and the sixth-largest globally. Needless to say, when General Dynamics travels, it travels big. The amount and variety of electronic equipment needed at every stage of development and sales require shipping equipment to every corner of the globe. More often than not, much of it is transported to out-of-the-way locations. How it gets there and in what condition can be a challenge. This is where cases come in geared to the specs of General Dynamics’ many products and equipment.

Rackmount Cases

Pelican Hardigg Corporation is the main supplier of General Dynamics shipping case solutions, including:

• Hand carry
• Ammo Storage Boxes
• Medical Supply Chests
• Briefcases
• Rackmount Equipment Transport Case
• Medium and Large Transport Cases
• Weapons Cases
  • Rifles
  • Grenade Launchers
  • Machine Guns
  • Pistols

All forty weapons cases are specifically designed to hold the full range of gun and rifle styles, some in standing rack design.

Rackmount designs offer the ultimate in accessories: weathertight, watertight, and dust-proof cases come in dozens of styles and configurations for a variety of uses. Tough as nails, super-strong steel latches provide the ultimate protection for sensitive equipment. Reinforced wheels transport heavy cases loaded with sensitive equipment with ease.

Electronics Cases

General Dynamics Military Electronics Cases are a mainstay in the GD transport line. As any military person will tell you, communication is the mainstay of military operations. Cases that protect electronics come mostly in smaller to medium sizes, many pallets ready for easy shipping.

• Laptops
• Monitors
• Printer Cases
• Fax Machine Cases
• Book Cases
• Field Desks

Each custom case is durable, secure, and built to ATA-300 standards. Cases meet exacting specifications. Whether you need to ship space suits, aircraft fuselages, or even a million-dollar space telescope mirror, there’s a case to get all things related to the aerospace industry where it needs to go safely and intact.

When companies need quality shipping cases there are several manufacturers they count on. Among them, the quality and versatility of Bel-Air cases put the company in a rarified category. Since most companies have specific shipping needs, they want a manufacturer who caters to those needs as an essential business practice. Bel-Air prides itself on giving each customer, and their shipping case needs individual attention. Customization, you could say, is their thing. Their reputation for quality is known and acknowledged throughout the industry.

Made to Order Claim

In its own words, Bel-Air offers “more options, features, and personalization than any other thermoformed case company.” From their ads, that may be true or close to it.

What is a Thermoformed Case?

Thermoforming is the process of heating a thermoplastic sheet to its softening point, stretching it over or into a single-sided mold, and holding it in place while it cools and solidifies into the desired shape. Excess material can be reground, mixed with unused plastic, and reformed into thermoplastic sheets. The reuse of excess materials makes the process cost-effective and environmentally friendly since material waste is minimal. The material is ideal for use in the manufacture of sturdy hard-shell shipping cases.

A Wide Range of Custom Styles and Colors

Bel-Air Cases offer silver and black as standard colors and seven custom colors. Custom colors and color matching may be available (minimum purchases apply). Cases are shipping tough and feature Expo designs.

Personalize cases with a variety of custom features:

• Graphics company logos
• Standard high-end hardware
• Wide selection of additional hardware options
• Engraved plates or custom decals
• Handles, hinges, and latches

Whether your priority is appearance, function, or cost, Bel-Air has what you need. If they don’t, they’ll get it for you. It’s all about choice.

Custom Only, Cost-Effective

Bel-Air cases are made to order, offering hundreds of sizes, styles, and limitless configurations. Costs are easily available through quotes estimated on dimensions, components, accessories, and overall appearance. On average, Bel-Air prices are considered moderate and in line with other quality manufacturers. The company is primarily known for two cases useful in shipping items to tradeshows:

• Expo Transport Cases. These are designed to safely ship items that do not fit in standard style cases and are ­ideal for shipping graphics, banners, displays, and other trade show-related items.
• OLE Cases. These feature an overlapping lid that creates variable internal heights. Sturdy nylon straps and buckles secure the lid to the base, and the entire case moves smoothly along on 3″ wheels with recessed housings.

Other cases are designed especially for the Aerospace Industry. Most cases come in light, medium, and heavy-duty carry, or transport.
