Durable and Rugged Military Footlockers and Trunklockers

Friday, February 22nd, 2013

There’s no denying that military weaponry needs optimal protection with transport cases manufactured for the tough terrain and conditions of combat. But what about the personal belongings of the military personnel who wield said weaponry? The clothing, computers, and reminders of home that soldiers keep with them deserve to be carefully safeguarded to help keep them comfortable while they serve.

Military footlockers – both thermoplastic and aluminum – offer durable storage solutions. Most footlockers have several compartments, including a tray on top, as seen in many trunks, which hold small items – maybe jewelry, photographs, toiletries, and so forth. The main compartment can hold clothes and any other larger items.

At Advanced Packaging, we have a full range of both custom and prefab military footlockers that are reliable and strong, made ruggedly to handle even the most extreme environments and conditions.

Aluminum Cases and Containers: The Benefits

Friday, December 21st, 2012

aluminum caseAs a material used in case manufacturing, aluminum makes for a durable yet lightweight solution in creating transit containers. Produced efficiently, modern metal-forming processes make it possible to make affordable aluminum cases and containers to be used in a wide variety of applications. A recyclable material made to withstand extreme conditions, aluminum containers are great for protecting sensitive equipment and supplies that need to be stored and shipped.

Welded aluminum has some benefits over plastic that are important to evaluate, depending upon your container needs. They are as follows:

- High quality aluminum cases withstand extreme temperatures, from hot to cold, and are able to perform between -238 ° F and +302 ° F.

- Aluminum cases can be created without custom molds and tools, making them both time and cost effective to produce.

- Aluminum cases are resistant to impact, absorbing shock without transferring it to the contents of the container and without deforming the case itself, which quickly returns to its original shape.

- Able to be manufactured to any size and carrying capacity, welded aluminum cases are highly adaptable and effective for anything from military containers to large industrial containers.

Welded aluminum cases from Advanced Packaging Inc. (API), are available in both stock and custom options, manufactured by experienced engineers in house. With proven quality for over 40 years, API’s aluminum containers provide superior protection.

A History of Veterans Day and a Thank You to All Those Who Have Served

Friday, November 9th, 2012

You see them everywhere: in the supermarket, at your favorite place to dine on weekends, sitting in front of you in the movie theatre. Some of them are easily identifiable, sporting an iconic navy blue hat with the word “veteran” branded across it in golden rod yellow, the name of the war in which they served written above it. Others go by unnoticed, blending in with civilians, their uniforms long retired. 

This Sunday, November 11th is Veterans Day – the day the United States has designated for honoring all former military personnel, whether living or deceased, for their dedication and loyal service. It is a moment to thank, appreciate, and remember that which often goes unspoken about: our troops’ defense of the nation.

Though it was President Eisenhower who signed a bill into office in 1954 declaring November 11th of every year as Veterans Day, the concept emerged in 1947, when Raymond Weeks of Birmingham, Alabama organized a “Veterans Day” parade. The purpose of the public procession, of course, was to honor all American vets for the time they spent serving our military branches. In order to assure the observance of Veterans Day, when Eisenhower put forth his bill for the holiday, he also issued a Presidential Order directing the head of the Veterans Administration (now known as the Department of Veterans Affairs) to create a Veterans Day National committee.

A part of that national commemoration is the Veterans Day National Ceremony, which takes place in the Arlington National Cemetery at exactly 11:00 am every year with a color guard made up of members from all of the military branches. The President or his representative is always in attendance, dutifully placing a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns as Taps sounds in the background. This tradition has become one of the symbolic representations of veteran remembrance in our nation.

As suppliers of military troops with our weapons, tactical, electronic, and footlocker cases, Advanced Packaging would like to reach out and thank all of our veterans who have served in the wars of America’s past: we appreciate your service.

Preserving History with Military Footlockers from API

Friday, September 7th, 2012

At Advanced Packaging, Inc., we offer the finest footlockers in a durable line designed for military applications. We believe that our protective cases provide one of the most reliable ways for U.S. soldiers to store their belongings while serving their homeland overseas. Retired footlockers from the wars of our country’s past are often preserved and resurface over time, revealing artifacts that can uncover stories about our individual and national histories.

At the National WWII Museum, a program called Operation Footlocker has been launched in order to provide schools and students around the States with the opportunity to travel back in time by examining artifacts from WWII conserved in antique footlockers. For a nominal fee, a footlocker will be shipped onsite to a school, where it can effectively be used as supplemental education material to classroom discussion about WWII.

The footlockers contain no weapons or ammunition, but do showcase a wide variety of other historical items: ration books, V-mail letters, dog tags, sand from beaches abroad, high school year books, magazines from the era, and more. Each footlocker is delivered with white cotton gloves and a teacher’s manual so that the artifacts can be properly handled and discussed.

At Advanced Packaging, Inc. we appreciate this endeavor on behalf of the National WWII Museum to provide students with the opportunity to learn about history in a hands-on manner. We think the items preserved in these cases serve as a testament to the importance of footlockers, and we know that the containers we produce for military applications will likewise be around for years to come, protecting soldiers’ items not just in the present, but for future generations to come.

To learn more about Operation Footlocker, please visit the National WWII Museum’s website by clicking here.

A History of Durability, Part III: Welded Aluminum

Tuesday, August 21st, 2012

Welding metals is a process that can be traced back to the Middle Ages with the rise of artisans like blacksmiths, but the melting and forging of aluminum didn’t come about until the twentieth century.  In 1944, Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) was developed to weld aluminum, which revolutionized the act of utilizing aluminum as a structural material, and is still used today in certain applications on these alloys.

Though a process known as Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), has since taken over as the primary method of welding aluminum, GTAW is considered particularly relevant for welding thinner gauges of aluminum and in projects where aesthetics are essential.  The rise of the GMAW method can primarily be attributed to its speediness in welding thick sections of aluminum.

The metal forming technology widely practiced today allows for fast and affordably produced fully welded aluminum cases, largely due to the fact that they require no molds or special tooling.  At Advanced Packaging, Inc., we believe there is something timeless about aluminum protective cases, which are built to subsist continually in even the most extreme conditions.  Whether dealing in high-end retail or critical military field applications, welded aluminum cases from API are reusable, reparable, customizable, and recyclable when usage is over.

Welded aluminum cases are incredibly lightweight and here at API, we have the capability to manufacture them to any size or weight carry capacity.  A cost-effective packaging solution, fully welded aluminum cases will protect your products, tools, and equipment no matter the circumstances.

If you have any questions about our Fully Welded Aluminum Cases, please contact Advanced Packaging Inc. by calling 888-206-5250 or visit our website today!

Founded over 40 years ago, Advanced Packaging Inc. provides quality stock and custom container solutions for military, government, and commercial equipment manufacturers.
