We have been working very hard on our iPad 2 case over the last year; loads of changes and refinements, but we are finally really happy with the finished product. It's going to be released onto the market very soon, they should be available for purchase early in the new year.

They are machined from 2 solid plates of 6082 aluminium on our CNC mill. This is a complicated operation in the machine that takes a long time and uses 20 different tools in the process. We also CNC mill and laser cut the clip components from stainless steel to prevent corrosion and to ensure they last. 

We hand glue a neoprene lining and two rubber bumpers to the interior faces before assembly to cushion and protect your iPad 2. The one process we don't do in-house is the anodising;  this is done at a local specialist company. After much testing we chose a slate grey Hard-coat anodise finish. The Hard-coat provides a much superior corrosion and scratch resistant coating to normal cosmetic anodising.

We are super excited about our new case and don't know of anything else on the market like it!
