Our Story | CP Cases UK

With over 50 years experience providing bespoke solutions for everything from broadcast to defence, we really are trusted when it matters...

It was the 1970s and the live music industry was booming.

Artists like The Who, The Moody Blues and Deep Purple were touring all over the UK, Europe and beyond, taking their beloved instruments and vital sound systems with them on the road.

We saw a need for sturdy cases to protect this precious cargo as it soared through the skies.

CP Cases was started by two semi-professional musicians who wanted to create a long-lasting, rugged case that they could rely upon again and again.

Our flight cases were some of the first on the market, crafted using high-quality materials and to exacting standards – to make them reliable and durable.

We’re still making flight cases with the finest components and with precision engineering. But now we’ve extended that approach to protect almost anything that is transported or stored…
