| What is the value of my product? - Containers vary greatly with regards to cost and durability. One constant, though, is this; the more durable the case, the more expensive it probably is. Therefore, the value of the contents is important. A $400 case may be seen as a bargain for the protection it gives a $10,000 movie camera, but it might not be the best choice for a $200 television set.
How is this case being used? - The method of transit and the appearance in of the case all play a role in case use. A rugged shipping case may not be needed for contents which will only travel by car. Also consider what the case has to say about your company and products. A sales kit made from a standard blow-molded case may not impress your clients as much as a handsome custom case.
Other considerations: - There are many other considerations you should address when shopping for a case. Is the ideal size available or will you be forced to live with a case that is too big or too small? Can you add custom options to standard cases such as wheels and handles, or are you stuck with a standard configuration? |
