ABOUT US

Different by Design

Our high-quality thermoformed packaging has helped our customers grow their businesses for over 50 years.

We are a successful, privately owned company based in Stockport, Manchester. We are a long-established BRCGS certified manufacturer of high-quality food, medical / pharmaceutical, and general thermoformed packaging solutions. Our packaging has been helping to protect customer products since we were founded in 1973.

Over 50 years we have developed a fully in-house approach that allows us to entirely control our production. We have a creative design team who rapidly deliver samples of initial ideas, by designing and prototyping every product in-house. We set up our factory with the flexibility to efficiently produce both large volumes and small batches. This makes us highly competitive for order quantities from a thousand to tens of millions.

We provide a bespoke design service, and we also have a range of products available for immediate delivery through our online store. We design all our products to minimise environmental impact. Almost all our products are made from R-PET which is made from at least 80% recycled material and is fully recyclable. We also offer other materials such as Eco-form, and many specialist materials.

All our sales team are highly experienced and have a technical thermoforming background, with a down-to-earth and personal approach our team are here to help our clients through the process. However you interact with us, you will see that we provide excellent and professional customer service throughout.

We would be delighted to help you.
