Protective cases for explosive transport

Engineered protection for small explosives transport

Aerial’s Protective Cases, known as the “Bread Box”, are rugged, precision-built transport enclosures designed to safeguard sensitive explosives components in demanding operational environments. Built for military or commercial EOD, humanitarian explosives removal teams, or industrial applications, the Bread Box provides reliable physical protection, contamination control, and environmental durability wherever explosive devices need to be moved or maintained.

The Bread Box is engineered to shield critical parts from impact, abrasion, moisture, dust, and temperature fluctuations to maintain internal stability during transport, handling, and field operations and ensure that sensitive equipment arrives fully intact and ready for use.

Whether supporting normal explosives/kinetics transportation or front-line missions, the Bread Box delivers dependable protection against the unpredictable.

Protection that performs when it matters most

Behind every successful operation is equipment that works the moment it’s needed. The Bread Box ensures that critical components inside stay protected, organized, and ready for action, streamlining movement across storage areas, vehicles, and field environments.

Durable, Mission-Ready Construction

Built from high-strength materials, each case withstands rough handling and extreme environments. The design resists crushing and fatigue, delivering reliable performance across repeated missions.

Environmental Sealing & Contamination Control

Sealed closures block dust, moisture, oils, and contaminants which is crucial for protecting electronics, delicate assemblies, and gear that must remain clean and ready.

Lightweight, Easy-to-Handle Design

Despite their toughness, Bread Box cases stay lightweight and ergonomic, making them easy to carry, even with gloves or in tight spaces.

Stackable, Transport-Friendly Form Factor

Designed for easy storage and movement, the Bread Box stacks efficiently and works seamlessly with hand-carry, pallets, or in-vehicle racks.

Precision-Fit Internal Protection

Custom inserts and supports match each component’s exact dimensions, preventing shifting, vibration damage, and impact stress during transport.

Built for the field & trusted across missions

From military deployments, to routine kinetics transport, our protective cases provide the reliability organizations need to keep critical equipment safe, secure, and mission-ready.

TYPICAL USES

Nationally and world-wide, the use of small explosives varies widely. The Bread Box was designed and tested to provide protection and mitigation for many scenarios, including:

  • Retrieving and transporting a typical pipe bomb: PVC, black pipe, or copper, 5”–8” long, up to 1.25” diameter
  • Retrieving and transporting a single small grenade
  • Transporting blasting caps and small charges from pit to pit during demolition operations
  • Carrying breaching charges so they no longer need to be carried on the vest of the operator
  • Recovering CO2 cartridges at crime scenes
  • Collecting and transporting evidentiary fragments for forensic analysis

Disclaimer: There are no guarantees or warranties in survivability with the use of the Bread Box. The Bread Box, when used as intended, by trained personnel, and with reasonable safety protocols, greatly reduces overpressure, fragmentation threat, and thermal effect. The Bread Box is engineered to small explosives and energetics below a 1-pound TNT equivalence (RE). Explosives or threats greater than this level require different safety protocols. Large explosive charges (RPG, IED, EFP) should never be transported with the Bread Box. Use of the Bread Box with a live target is reserved for trained personnel only.
