Protective cases for transporting a planar-shaped object includes a body including side, front, rear, and bottom walls coupled at edges thereof to define a housing having a cavity therein, an opening defined by uppermost edges of the side, front, and rear walls, and a lid secured to at least one of the uppermost edges of the side, front, and rear walls. The side, front, and rear walls and the lid each comprise a multilayer construction including an exterior layer, an interior layer, and at least one protective layer enclosed therebetween. The side, front, and rear walls include at least an impact-absorbing layer and optionally a rigid layer, and the lid includes at least an impact-absorbing layer. |

1. A protective case for transporting and storing a planar-shaped object, the protective case comprising:
a body including a first side wall, a second side wall spaced apart from the first side wall, a front wall, a rear wall spaced apart from the front wall, and a bottom wall coupled to the first and second side walls, front wall, and rear wall at edges thereof to define a parallelepiped-shaped housing having a cavity therein configured to receive the planar-shaped object; an opening at an end of the body oppositely-disposed from the bottom wall and defined by uppermost edges of the first side wall, the second side wall, the front wall, and the rear wall; and a lid secured to at least one of the uppermost edges of the first side wall, the second side wall, the front wall, or the rear wall and configured to close the opening and secure the planar-shaped object within the cavity of the protective case; wherein the first side wall, the second side wall, the front wall, the rear wall, the bottom wall, and the lid each comprise a multilayer construction including an exterior layer, an interior layer, and at least one protective layer enclosed therebetween, each of the protective layers comprises at least one impact-absorbing layer configured to cushion the planar-shaped object and optionally comprises a rigid layer configured to increase the rigidity of the protective case, the protective layers of the first side wall, the second side wall, the front wall, the rear wall, and the bottom wall include at least the rigid layer and the impact-absorbing layer, and the protective layer of the lid includes at least the impact-absorbing layer. |
