caseable was founded in New York in March 2010 by Klaus Wegener and Marvin Amberg, who know each other from university. From 2011 to 2012 the company grew by 400%. In 2012 a German production site was opened in Lauterbach in addition to the American one in Brooklyn.

caseable initially offered customized designs for laptop sleeves, but then expanded its product portfolio to smartphone cases, e-reader and tablet covers. Shortly after its foundation caseable began operations in Canada and across Europe. The company opened online retail sites in the UK, Netherlands, France, Austria and Switzerland. In 2013 caseable launched in both Russia and Australia and partnered with Zazzle, which produces the fabric for the iPad cases.
