The base of every G2 Flightcase is a framework of aluminium profiles 2 mm thick, inside which we glue a 10 mm sheet material. This is often 9 mm Birch plywood with a scratch-resistant and durable HPL top layer. If you want to save weight, we use lightweight plastic honeycomb boards. G2 Flightcases are fitted with built-in locks, hinges and handles.
Custom Flightcases
Each G2 Flightcase is custom-designed, fully tailored to the specific needs of the customer. When having a flightcase custom-made, it’s important to consider how it will be used and what the key requirements are. Does the flightcase need to be closed in a specific way, or is, for example, a fully cushioned interior required so that your products can be transported with minimal vibrations? Would you like to easily move the flightcases and also make them stackable? In that case, we will attach the well-known blue wheels to the G2 Flightcases and add stacking trays to the lid. If the application allows, we use our developed smart lid. With an internal measurement of only 8 millimeters, this lid is space- and cost-saving. This way, we can achieve more with our custom-made flightcases.
With our own team of product engineers, industrial product designers, experts in aluminum profiles and construction possibilities, and our own factory, we are able to design and produce the right flightcases for every product and industry.

Glue joint
Right from the start of the development of the G2 Flightcases, we opted for a glue connection between aluminium profiles and sheet material instead of the traditional production method with rivets. A rivet connection is not only a labor-intensive process, but there is also a sharp rivet every 10 – 15 cm on the aluminum profiles. Thanks to the G2 Flightcases’ adhesive connection, you see and feel nothing of the connection and research at the Technical University of Delft has shown that the connection is also stronger than conventional flightcases with a rivet connection.
Custom Interior
Not only can you have the flightcase custom-made, but we also design and produce the interior of the G2 Flightcases to your specifications. We use materials such as plastic, wood, aluminum, and foam for this. Our main focus is always on providing sustainable protection for the contents. Additionally, we aim for a practical and efficient layout of the flightcases, with ease of use for the end user as the primary goal. When designing custom flightcases, we at Gefken Cases always work from the inside out.
Custom interior: from medical equipment to camera lenses
Not only can you have the flight case custom-made, we also design and produce the interior of G2 Flightcases to order. We use materials such as plastic, wood, aluminum and foam. Our starting point is always the sustainable protection of the contents. In addition, we strive for a practical and efficient layout of the flight cases with ease of use for the end user as the main goal. When designing custom flightcases, we at Gefken Cases therefore always work from the inside out.
We always start with designing the interior and then work outwards. This means that every flight case designed is unique, tailored to the customer’s needs. Whether transporting medical equipment worldwide or packaging professional broadcasting equipment such as camera lenses or controllers, our product engineers have extensive experience in developing flight cases for various B2B applications and industries.
We also design and manufacture flight cases for the presentation of (industrial) products or as housing for equipment that is being built in (mobility solutions/integrated systems). Do you have a nice challenge for a product or installation that you want to pack, present or transport? Then come sit down with our specialists and Gefken Cases will take care of the rest!
