Hej Bob, do they specify as how conductive the case has to be? There are conductive polymers, used in mostly pink ESD shielding bags but you would not be able to measure the conductivity (or resistivity) with a normal multimeter. Depending on design, cost and feasibility, another alternative might be the evaporation coating of the inside with ITO (indium tin oxide - the electrode material used in LCDs) or with a metal film (gold, mostly or chromium) of up to 100nm, which will also be transparent and chemically stable.
