Board Manufacturing
£6M Strategic Investment
We recently invested £6M in a bespoke facility with corrugator, materials handling, storage and shipping department. Thanks to one of the best corrugators available in the market, our board is strong, perfectly flat....and of course, fully recyclable!

Market Position & Cost Control
Greater control over our input costs comes from buying paper from the international market rather than sheet from the UK sheet-feeding market. This means we, and our customers, don't suffer the associated extra costs or protracted lead times – especially during seasonal peaks.
Our performance packaging approach means we often specify and supply bespoke, performance board grades that best suit the box application, at highly competitive prices.
