waterproof box

Moisture-resistant storage vessel

A waterproof box is a container designed to keep its contents dry when exposed to water or moisture.

These range from small cases for phones and valuables to larger storage containers for camping, boating, or outdoor work: I keep my matches in a waterproof box when hiking.

The term applies to any sealed container that prevents water ingress.
