Our logistics packaging solutions can revolutionise your business.
From branded boxes and packaging that showcase your client’s identity to plain packaging ready for anything, we have your needs covered.
We know budgets matter. That’s why all our packaging solutions optimise costs without compromising on quality. We supply companies who use high volumes of packaging but our manufacturing capabilities mean that production is quick and efficient, allowing small volume runs too. This allows scalability, which we recognise is key.
One size doesn’t fit all in cardboard packaging, especially in the 3PL and fulfillment industry where the products you work with change hour by hour or minute by minute. Our team of expert box designers advise you on the best packaging solutions based on the unique demands and requirements placed on you, by your customers. Right size packaging reduces void fill and increases efficiency within your supply chain.
We dedicate ourselves to providing customised recommendations for packaging specification and service level based on both your products and your business model.
Whether you ship within the fashion, health or beauty industries or fragile electronics, food and heavy products, we provide a variety of box designs tailored to your needs. We will design a bespoke box tailored specifically to your needs but also offer standard FEFCO styles, made to your size and specification. From FEFCO 0201 standard slotted boxes, ideal for general use, to FEFCO 0427 die-cut boxes designed for secure packaging of fragile items, we have you covered.
Our Warwickshire-based HQ, manufacturing facilities, and extensive warehouse storage space offer the perfect place to keep your boxes and packaging stocked off-site. This gives you the option to hold just the stock you actually need while still having more products on demand.
These stock-holding capabilities integrate your supply chain with a packaging manufacturer that understands the demands of your business. We help you reduce your inventory holding costs with just-in-time delivery options.
