Pelican Products has been the global standard in mission-critical protection for over 35 years—trusted by professionals in defense, emergency services, and demanding industrial fields. When Pelican set out to extend their legacy into the mobile space with the first-ever IP68-rated smartphone case, they turned to Production Partners to make it a reality.
The result: the Pelican Marine Case—an ultra-durable, fully waterproof smartphone case that upholds the brand’s commitment to uncompromising protection in any environment.
Production Partners led the complete product development and manufacturing program, translating Pelican’s rugged performance standards into a compact, consumer-ready solution for mobile users who demand maximum durability without sacrificing usability.
Engineering & Manufacturing Highlights:
Design for IP68 certification, including custom-sealed interfaces and submersion-ready closures
Precision molding and overmolding of high-impact materials for multi-layered drop and shock protection
Touchscreen compatibility engineering, preserving full functionality through protective interfaces
Saltwater, dust, and snow resistance—tested and validated for true all-weather performance
High-volume, tight-tolerance tooling to support global retail scalability while maintaining product integrity
Creating a case that meets Pelican’s legacy of extreme protection—while adapting to the nuanced requirements of consumer electronics—required a deep understanding of material science, durability testing, and functional aesthetics. Through close collaboration and iterative prototyping, Production Partners delivered a product that set the benchmark for smartphone protection.
"Our valued partnership with Production Partners allowed Pelican to bring innovative phone case solutions to market. Their supply chain network, project management capabilities, and leadership engagement contributed to achieving numerous, successful launches of complex mobile solutions on-time."
