G.P. Searle, founder of KOR Technik, invites attendees and media to experience the company’s transportation solutions featuring two new VRS designs with double panel systems.

Regardless of what you’re transporting, the two-panel options elevate the level of protection.”

During SHOT Show, KOR Technik will showcase the benefits of VRS technology in Zarges aluminum cases, emphasizing their state-of-the-art design as the preferred choice for transporting high-value objects. Searle expressed pride in presenting their foam replacement system within Zarges cases, stating, “Zarges’ aluminum cases are known for their exceptional performance attributes. Combined with KOR’s double VRS protection panels, they signify the cutting-edge development in reusable packaging for securely transporting valuable items.”

In booth #72850, three of Zarges’ most popular and versatile K470 flagship cases will be equipped with KOR VRS panels in Zarges x KOR Technik Kits. “Uniting the outer protection of Zarges’ aluminum cases with KOR VRS technology offers travelers, hunters, competitive shooters, and operators a reliable and repeatable protection solution that is endlessly reusable, ready for new gear in minutes, lighter weight, and more cost-effective,” he concluded.
