Product information
Pelican laptop cases are designed for professionals who need dependable protection for computers, documents, accessories, and mobile office equipment. Unlike standard soft laptop bags, these hard-sided cases provide a rugged protective shell built to help guard sensitive electronics from impact, dust, moisture, and rough handling during business travel, field work, shipping, and daily transport. They are ideal for users who carry laptops into demanding environments or need a more secure way to transport valuable office gear.
Built with Pelican’s protective case construction, these laptop cases offer strong exterior durability, secure latches, watertight protection, and a pressure equalization valve to help balance interior pressure during altitude or temperature changes. Many models are available with either an empty interior for custom setups or a laptop/office-style configuration for organized storage. The configured interiors help keep laptops, cables, chargers, files, and accessories separated and easier to access, while no-foam versions give users the flexibility to build their own layout.
From compact briefcase-style models to larger rolling laptop cases, the Pelican laptop case lineup gives customers multiple options based on equipment size, travel style, and storage needs. Smaller models are easy to carry by hand and provide slim, professional protection for laptops and documents. Larger wheeled models offer more capacity for overnight travel, office supplies, or additional electronics while reducing carrying strain during airport, job site, and business travel.
Whether used for daily commuting, corporate travel, technical field work, photography support gear, or mobile office organization, Pelican laptop cases deliver a strong balance of protection, organization, and long-term durability. They are a practical choice for customers who want hard-case reliability for laptops and business essentials without sacrificing portability.
The Pick N Pluck Foam is shock-absorbent, pre-scored Foam in tiny cubes. The item is placed on the foam, outlined with chalk, and then the cubes around the item are removed to form a secure, protective cocoon. It is the easiest, fastest method for providing a cut-out for individual items. Best for shipping same items repeatedly. Also known as cubed or diced foam.

No matter the job, the Pelican Protector Case is the standard in offering your equipment the protection it needs and deserves.
SOLID CONSTRUCTION: The Pelican Protector Case uses an open cell core and solid wall construction, which is actually stronger and lighter than a solid core wall. Travel light with heavy protection.
DOUBLE-THROW LATCHES: Double-Throw latches are smarter and easier to open: it’s the classic ‘C’ clamp design with a secondary movement that works like a pry bar to start the release and offers plenty of leverage to open with a light pull.
WATERTIGHT: The secret is the tongue-and-groove fit with a polymer o-ring acting as a waterproof seal. Also, our Automatic Pressure Equalization Valve releases built-up air pressure while keeping water molecules out, resulting in a watertight case that is easy to open.
TESTED: The Pelican Protector Case design is the result of multiple generations of refinement. This evolution is proven through submergence and other lab tests.
EASY RIDING: Stainless steel ball bearing wheels (on select cases) last longer and ride smoother. The nylon hub adjacent to the stainless steel resists heat resulting in less wear and tear on the polyurethane tire.
