French manufacturer of flight cases since 1981

The flight case is a reusable and robust transport case for packaging and protecting fragile materials (stage equipment, medical equipment, industrial equipment, musical instruments, works of art, etc.) for transport by truck , plane, or boat.
Its lifespan depends on its use. Rythmes & Sons flight cases have a lifespan of about 3000 uses or 30 years.

Rythmes et Sons has been designing and manufacturing 100% French flight-cases in Alsace since 1981.
Our large stock of raw material, modern and efficient technical equipment, and production capacity allows us to offer both standard and customized products of exceptional quality.

STANDARD FLIGHT CASES

To ensure fast delivery time, we have developed a range of standard flight cases currently held in stock: trunks, palletized crates, crates, racks, boards, storage cases, etc.
They meet a variety of needs.

CUSTOM MADE FLIGHT CASES

We assess your requirements and offer customized solutions for your packaging needs and uses. Our production capacity allows us to quickly deliver large series.

Technological resources

8000m² premises include a study and management platform as well as a production and storage site.

All activities are centralized on a single efficient and modern site for the purpose of ensuring production quality and delivery (integrated computerized management, CNC machine, large raw material stocks...).

Security

During the manufacture of our flight case, our priority is the safety of the material and the of the users.
To ensure the safty of the material, we are using noble materials and offer interior fittings dedicated with the use of foam padding, wood or composite.
To ensure the safety of the people, we focus on the placement of the lifting and manutention accessories, to facilitate et securise the use at best.

Logistic

We design cases with sizes optimized for the transport by truck, plane or by sea.
The optimisation of the sizes is essential to reduce the transport costs.

Tests & Tryings

Depending on the products, we realise shock, drop, cushioning, lifting, sealing and material strenght tests. To realise these tests, we can place shock sensors on the equipment to protect and on the transport case to mesure the transport constraints.

These tests are realised internally or externally depending on the constraints and the needs of certification.
At the end of these tests and on demand, a detailed report with all the results can be made, or a certificate can be delivered.
