Successful completion of Phase One of major contract with DTC
Barum & Dewar is pleased to confirm the successful completion of phase one of a major contract with DTC.
The project began with a detailed design consultation to fully understand the requirements of the project and to ensure the best fit possible was carried out with the support and input of both parties' commercial teams.
The result of this collaborative and iterative design process has been the delivery of the first batch of cases and foams, all of which were subjected to a thorough test fit of all components being packaged to ensure a “right first time” solution that the client can now pass on to their international customer.
Utilising a selection of Peli Storm rugged protective cases, the contents are housed in bespoke dual-colour foam inserts, finished off with a laser-engraved logo inside the lid, resulting in an eye-catching and professional appearance to really demonstrate DTC’s pride in their products and to ensure they have the highest level of protection.
Barum & Dewar has been thanked for our efforts for our ability to turn this first phase around exceptionally quickly and also for the service levels and customer care that we take pride in delivering to all of our clients.
