Pelican Unveils Pelican-Trimcast Technical Solutions

Global leader Pelican reintroduces the Trimcast name to mark its most advanced tier of engineered protective technical solutions for mission-critical equipment as demand surges.

Pelican, the global leader in mission-critical protective solutions, today unveiled a new brand identity for its Technical Solutions division: Pelican-Trimcast Technical Solutions. Building on the strategic merger of Pelican and Trimcast in 2011, the new Pelican- Trimcast Technical Solutions seal will now serve as the definitive mark for the company's most advanced tier of engineered protective packaging solutions.

Announced today, Pelican-Trimcast Technical Solutions represents the convergence of over 175-year combined history: Drawing on Pelican’s 50 years of relentless innovation, Trimcast’s 50 years of proven expertise in protective packaging for Defence, and strengthened by Hardigg’s 77 year heritage of precision engineering.

“Pelican’s highly collaborative methodology and end-user focus have enabled the Commonwealth of Australia to field a solution that will assure serviceability of the packaged item whilst being transported in a harsh and hazardous environment. It resulted in Saab being able to deliver a world-class Deployable Health Care Capability to the Australian Defence Force.” Arran Brown – Queensland Regional Manager, Saab Australia Pty Ltd
