A custom rugged solution is a case, mount, or accessory engineered around your device, workflow, and environment, not an off-the-shelf adaptation. The Joy Factory builds these solutions through custom branding, fully modified enclosures, and integrated features, keeping your team productive in any environment.
Every custom project starts with hands-on design and engineering — from custom branding, colors, and materials to fully modified enclosures with added ports, mounts, or sensor integration. The Joy Factory works directly with your team to tailor each detail to your device and use case.
Each custom device moves through hands-on prototyping and rigorous testing before it reaches your team, confirming it meets your exact specifications for durability and performance under real-world conditions
Certifications confirm a custom device will actually hold up where it’s deployed. From Oil and Gas safety standards to rugged compliance testing, The Joy Factory manages the certifications needed to keep your devices market-ready and safe in hazardous environments.
Our rugged solutions are designed for the demanding environments of manufacturing, offering protection against drops, dust, and water. From production lines to warehouses, our products enhance operational efficiency, ensuring mobile devices remain functional and secure to keep workflows uninterrupted.
For the oil and gas industry, our rugged solutions are engineered to withstand hazardous environments, ensuring that your workforce can rely on secure and durable mobile technology. With certifications for hazardous locations, our products empower teams to work efficiently and safely in extreme field conditions.
When tablets are paired with a rugged aXtion® case; the setup provides equivalent protective features of a toughbook at half the cost. For construction environments that are unpredictable an aXtion case that offers military MIL-STD-810G certification is ideal at keeping the tablet safe from damage if it encounters an accidental drop.
Our rugged devices for the energy and utilities sector are built to handle the toughest conditions, whether in the field or at a power plant. They offer reliable, durable protection to keep mobile technology operational, allowing teams to monitor and manage infrastructure effectively, even in the harshest environments.

The Joy Factory manufactures hazardous location tablet cases certified to HazLoc Certified: Class I Div 2, Class II Div 2, Class III Div 1 & 2 (Groups A–D, F & G), ATEX I| 2G Ex ib IIB T4 (European), lECEx, and UL 2019 standards for use in explosive atmospheres. These certifications confirm our enclosures are safe for oil & gas, petrochemical, chemical, and mining operations where ignitable gases, vapors, or dust may exist. Each certified model undergoes rigorous thermal, mechanical, and electrical testing to ensure protection without creating ignition risk. Our aXtion Extreme and aXtion Pro lines carry the broadest certification coverage, making them the trusted choice for enterprise energy operations globally. Contact our sales team for a certification datasheet specific to your jurisdiction and device model.
The Joy Factory manufactures rugged protective enclosures for Apple iPad (all generations including iPad mini, iPad Air, and iPad Pro), iPhone (12 through 17 series), Microsoft Surface Pro models, and enterprise device tablets. Each case is custom-engineered to fit specific device dimensions, ports, and button layouts while maintaining full operational access.
Our portfolio spans the aXtion Bold (everyday protection), aXtion Pro (intermediate impact), aXtion Extreme (maximum protection and certification), and aXtion Slim (light-duty with premium design). Compatibility charts and spec sheets are available on our website. Contact us if your device isn’t listed—we offer custom manufacturing solutions for bulk enterprise orders.
The Joy Factory tests all rugged cases to military-grade drop standards. aXtion Extreme models are validated for 10-foot (3-meter) drops onto concrete, aXtion Pro models for 8-foot drops, and aXtion Bold for 6-foot drops. Drop ratings assume horizontal and corner impacts on hard surfaces; results vary by case type, device model, and impact angle. All impact tests follow MIL-STD-810H test methods for reproducibility and credibility. Beyond drops, our cases protect against dust ingress (IP65 minimum), immersion, thermal extremes (-20°C to +60°C), and vibration typical of vehicles and manufacturing equipment.
aXtion Extreme offers maximum protection with full HazLoc Certified: Class I Div 2, Class II Div 2, Class III Div 1 & 2 (Groups A–D, F & G), and ATEX/UL certification for hazardous environments, 10-foot drop rating, and sealed connectors. aXtion Pro provides 8-foot drop protection and intermediate certification for regulated industries without explosive atmosphere risk. aXtion Bold is designed for everyday field service with 6-foot drops, premium design, and ergonomic grip—ideal for hospitals, retail, and construction sites without hazmat exposure. Choose based on your drop environment, compliance needs, and budget.
The Joy Factory’s MagConnect mounts use permanent neodymium magnets embedded in rugged aluminum frames to lock tablets and iPad cases magnetically in place. These mounts adhere to vehicle dashboards, cart frames, production-line fixtures, and workstation arms without adhesives, fasteners, or power. MagConnect is compatible with all aXtion cases featuring embedded magnetic inserts—a quick-attach system enabling tool-free repositioning. Magnetic force is rated for sustained vibration environments including vehicles, forklifts, and machinery. Mounts come in RAM-style ball arms, dashboard suction-cup models, and custom VESA-compatible brackets for stationary installations. The magnetic bond is so secure it can support repeated impacts while remaining non-damaging to both case and device-deal for high-mobility field service, delivery, and manufacturing workflows.
The Joy Factory serves manufacturing, oil and gas, energy and utilities, construction, healthcare, hospitality, retail, and supply chain industries, with rugged device protection engineered for each environment’s specific hazards.
