Google: Data Center Hardware Transport Cases
Challenge
Google operates 35+ hyperscale data centers globally. They need cases for server components, network switches, hard drives, and GPU/TPU modules transported between data centers and field engineering locations. Cases must: (1) provide ESD-safe storage for sensitive electronics, (2) survive air/sea/road transport globally, (3) be reusable 1,000+ cycles for ESG, (4) integrate with Google's supply chain (S/4HANA), (5) meet Google's strict specifications.
Solution
KeXinMaterials provided hyperscale-grade cases with: (1) PP copolymer + ESD foam (10^6 ohm/sq), (2) Google-spec certified, (3) custom foam for servers, switches, HDDs, GPU/TPU modules, (4) serialized QR + Google S/4HANA, (5) 1,000+ cycle rating. Custom foam for Google Tensor Processing Units, custom server racks, network switches, HDD arrays.
Result
5,000 cases deployed across 35+ data centers. 24 months zero component damage. 100% ESD compliance. Google standardized KeXinMaterials as a qualified hardware transport vendor. Multi-year MSA extension confirmed.
Client Testimonial
Google's data center hardware requires the highest ESD protection and reliability. KeXinMaterials cases have proven 1,000+ cycle reliability and ESD compliance across 35+ data centers and 24 months. The Google S/4HANA integration gives us real-time visibility into our hardware fleet. They're now our standard hyperscale transport case. — Google Data Center Hardware Logistics Director
