We protect the material of the armed forces
Defense
Always standby for a crisis situation
Defence personnel continue where others stop. On land, at sea and in the air, they are committed to ensuring the safety, health and welfare of citizens worldwide. High-quality and optimally functioning equipment is indispensable for this. Equipment, tools, weapons or parts must therefore be well protected against challenging external influences; shocks and bumps, dust, water, chemicals and extreme cold and heat. With custom-made packaging of Faes, you are always prepared for a crisis situation.
We design and develop packaging that is fully tailored to the needs of a team or platoon. No matter how demanding and complex the application. Think of robust aluminium cases to store things in an organised way. Plastic cases with integrated electronic equipment, for ‘in the field’. Or flightcases that can be configured and installed quickly for each situation. Our packaging consultants understand what is important in your sector. They are aware of standards and certifications such as UN, NEN, ISO and Mil-Spec, but also of tendering processes.
UN-certified packaging for Li-Ion transportation
The transport of hazardous substances such as lithium-ion involves risks. That is why international transport legislation is in force for the transport of these (liquid) substances. Based on the classification (UN number), the right packaging and transport method is chosen.
Customer case defence: a solid packaging for vulnerable F-16 parts
The Defence Materiel Organisation (central procurement agency of the Ministry of Defence), was looking for an alternative to the wooden cases in which they used to transport fragile F-16 parts. We designed and developed a rock-solid plastic case for them.
Our packaging solutions for defence
Within the Ministry of Defence, a good structure and organisation are essential in order to act adequately in a crisis situation. Because their equipment is often an extension of themselves, it is important that they always have it at hand and that it is transported safely and completely. For every application in this sector, there is a suitable packaging. And if not, we design it!

Six steps to a customised solution
Identifying your packaging needs
A case, crate or flight case is so much more than just packaging. More than a casing for your products, equipment or parts. What the ideal packaging is for your company and application depends on countless factors. Our packaging experts will map out your specific requirements during an intake meeting.
A standard or customised packaging?
Now it is up to us to find the most suitable packaging for you on the basis of the intake. Sometimes, existing packaging from our range will suffice, but sometimes customisation is required or desired. Our advisors will present this to our design office, where designers will translate your requirements into the best solution.
The first glance at your packaging solution
Are you satisfied with our initial advice and proposal? Then our experienced packaging engineers will get to work on a concrete design for your customised packaging. We have our own in-house design office, which means that we have extensive expertise and short lines of communication. This is how we work together on your packaging solution.
Online proofing
Once the products or parts have been measured and the design and drawing have been made, they are presented via an online tool. Via this tool, all project members can place their comments or agree directly. Online proofing is efficient and transparent, and all versions of the design are retained.
Our craftsmen get to work at our in-house workshop
After approval of the design, the designers convert the drawings into a workshop order. Craftsmen then produce the product based on the production techniques suitable for the application. If desired, our production staff can provide the case with a customised interior and printing.
Advice and full service
After delivery, our service doesn’t just stop. We are always at your disposal if you have any feedback or questions. We offer various services with which we can take your concerns about packaging completely out of your hands. We are also at your service when you have a complex logistical or packaging problem.

People are the core of defence
The defence sector is large and diverse and customisation is necessary. Yet they have one factor in common: people are at the core. Whether it is training, a humanitarian mission, medical support or a regulatory function: the safety and well-being of people is paramount. Faes supports among others:
- Suppliers of materials for Defence;
- (local) procurement departments of defence units such as the Royal Netherlands Navy, Army, Air Force and Military Police;
- in large (inter)national tendering processes.
