Shock mounted case
Plasma and LED screen cases
Audio Visual case

One of the most produced flight case types is for Plasma and LED screens. In recent years, due to the leap in technology and the reduction in overall cost for the average display screen, the amount of cases now being produced is very high.

From simple 32″ LED display screens right up to the huge Panasonic 103″ plasma display, our company has produced flight cases for just about all sizes and makes.

Single, twin, triple and in some flight cases, quad layouts are available. Obviously the size and weight of the screen has to be considered when selecting a screen flight case but as usual, our sales team will assist you and use years of experience in the field of case design and manufacture.

Recently, we have introduced a lightweight alternative to the popular plywood used predominantly in flight case construction.  This uses a lightweight honeycomb polypropylene (Astroboard) panel in place of the plywood and laminate exterior, reducing the overall weight considerably.  Obviously, a compromise over the reduction in weight is that this particular flight case type, needs to be treated with just a little more respect that its traditional flight case cousin. But the benefits are to be had. Again, our sales team will advise on where the Venue Range should be used and of course screen size and layout plays a major part in this selection.
