As a leading manufacturer of flight cases and other custom travel cases, we have developed fully customisable flight cases to ensure valuable items like lighting and audio equipment are protected on the road or in storage. We have worked with some of the biggest names on their travel and production equipment storage, including brands like McLaren, Johnson & Johnson, Samsung, Airbus, and Fender. Our experience means that when it comes to exhibitions and shows, a high-quality flight case can prevent damage and loss, reduce the instances of repair delays, and keep your show rolling smoothly no matter the destination. With all this experience, we are here to explain the value of investing in bespoke, high-quality flight cases and how they keep your exhibition, shows, and other productions running smoothly.
Equipment damage sustained during storage or transit broadly falls into one of eight main categories:
Impact – Shock damage caused by heavy impact
Poor Handling – Mishandling and human errors
Incorrectly Packaged or Stored – Using the wrong case, padding, or packaging
Vibration – Vehicle and other vibration damage to sensitive equipment
Moisture – Water ingress and damage
Temperature/Humidity – Extreme changes in temperature causing damage
Dust – Dust damage to sensors and filters
Static Charges – Static damage to sensitive equipment
However, all of the types of damage listed above can all be avoided by simply using the right case and the right internal support. For example, injection moulded cases and trunks prevent water and dust ingress, while maintaining internal temperatures and protecting sensitive equipment against vibrations, scrapes, and bumps. This protection can also be customised with bespoke foam inserts, partitions, padding, shapes, and locking systems to provide the exact support and cushioning equipment needs during movement, from load-in to long drives.
Protects against impact, poor handling and incorrect storage due to rigid and resilient hexaboard panels, reinforced with steel corners and aluminium extrusions to protect its interior cargo from bumps during loading and transit.
Protects against vibration, impact, moisture and poor storage by providing the exact support equipment needs to prevent movement during transit. Custom foam cutting is completed with precision and high quality materials, fully encasing items to prevent exposure to moisture.
Uses sophisticated plastic moulding technology to make cases that fully protect against moisture, extreme temperatures and dust.
With the UK getting the events sector back on track, plenty of businesses are planning to get back on the road and network at major exhibitions and national events. These exhibitions come with plenty of associated costs from venues charging for exhibition space to designing stands, printing posters and paying team members for long hours chatting to prospective clients. As a result, funding a successful exhibit can cost thousands of pounds.
Depending on your stand’s requirements you could look to spend anywhere from a few hundred pounds to several thousand pounds on venue fees, specialised stands and equipment, rigging costs, waste and recycling, health and safety equipment, and running water.
Now, imagine paying all of these fees for site space, power, furniture, visual elements, leaflets, and travelling for hours, only to have your equipment damaged, potentially ruining your show. We ensure this is a risk you don’t need to take with fully customisable flight cases designed for your equipment be it stands, sound systems, cameras, lighting, or other sensitive equipment.
All of our cases are made using state of the art technology such as CAD (Computer-Aided Design), CNC routing and rotational moulding processes to produce the highest quality cases consistently at competitive prices. Our pop-up cases are particularly popular in this field and have been used to transport equipment safely across the globe.

Instruments and music gear can be costly to replace or repair. Musicians have long lamented travelling with instruments, with many blaming ground crew, venue employees, and other hauliers for damage to their equipment. Dave Webster, the Music Union’s National Organiser for Live Performance has highlighted this issue, saying:
“We know that on some occasions, ground staff and cabin crew have been less aware of their employers’ policies than they should be. This will hopefully incentivise airlines to up their game and give musicians some peace of mind when booking to travel with their instruments.”
However, until such time as airlines and other transport companies can guarantee procedures, the onus on providing protection for equipment falls to you. We have a range of off-the-shelf flight cases for pedals, instruments, monitors, speakers, cables, computers, and other odd-shaped equipment.
Our injection-moulded waterproof hard cases and lightweight trunks can also be customised with shelving, wheels, handles and custom foam inserts to reduce empty space and maximise your case’s carrying capacity and support, without compromising on durability or safety.
Trifibre has long supported logistical needs with a history of success going back to 1981. Our made-to-measure bags and flight cases are an example of this legacy providing our customers with the perfect answer to bumpy roads and busy flights.
Trifibre’s rugged flight cases can also be designed for specific measurements and incorporate features like graphics, careful handling warnings, and screen printing to add branding and messaging. Add to this our presentation cases, which when coupled with CNC foam inserts, can be used to show off products and made into features of your exhibition displays and show decorations.
Finally, for added protection, we can also create product covers and insulated covers to protect valuable equipment and provide an extra layer of protection. This additional protection is ideal for items like speakers, printers, cameras, and sensitive measuring equipment.
We’re pleased to help clients every day with a long term solution that reduces the need for packaging waste and provides added protection for life on the road.
Our team has worked with clients from a variety of industries including Eon, Network Rail, Fender, Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue, Royal Mail, Samsung and more.
