Pelican Products, Inc. (Pelican), the global leader in the design and manufacture of high-performance cases, today set another benchmark for the segment with the launch of four new longer and deeper cases in the re-engineered, up to 40% lighter, Pelican™ Air Case line.
As part of the innovative and lighter Pelican™ Air case line, the four new cases, 1506, 1556, 1606 and 1626, are built in a duffel style form factor making them perfect for storage of longer type equipment. “As we continue to grow the extremely popular Pelican™ Air case line, we are listening closely to the needs of our customers and we’re confident that these new sizes meet and exceed those requirements,” said Vince LaDuca, Product Manager, Pelican Products Commercial and Government Division.
The new case form factors provide room for fragile and valuable equipment such as cinema-grade cameras to tactical gear. Videographers will appreciate the case depth so to store cameras upright for more efficient use of space. The latest Pelican™ Air case additions grow the line to 16 unique sizes. The new sizes are currently available in black, with yellow, orange, and gray versions to follow in early 2020.
