Title: European source for plastic carrying boxes?
Post by: PartialDischarge on October 26, 2020, 06:01:30 pm

I'm looking for boxes to carry electrical equipment, the normal stuff not super secure or airtight. Many to be found in China, problem is air shipping is expensive for bulky and lightweight items like this.
So I'd prefer to find someone in Europe, anyone?

https://www.peli.com/ (https://www.peli.com/) is one of the better manufacturers, if you google a specific model number you'll likely find many webshops
in your country selling it.
Also Conrad and Reichelt should have similar products.

Pollin carries a decent selection. Within Germany and the neighboring EU countries, the shipping is reasonable.
