Our Focus Areas
Eco-Friendly Products & Responsible Sourcing
We develop sustainable packaging using renewable, fibre-based materials with high recycled content. Our corrugated boxes are fully recyclable and designed to minimise material use and reduce CO₂ emissions in transport.
We source our raw materials from responsible suppliers in the UK and Europe, ensuring the fibre we use comes from responsibly managed forests.
Highlights
- High recycled content and fully recyclable fibre-based packaging
- Right-sized, material-efficient designs
- Fibre sourced from responsibly managed forests
- Ongoing development of new, circular packaging solutions
Responsible Manufacturing
We operate our production sites with a strong focus on resource efficiency and waste reduction. All paper and timber waste is collected and either reused to develop new products, recycled, or converted into bio-pellets that help heat our factories — supporting a more circular use of energy.
With production facilities located in Bradford, Halifax, Middlewich, Nottingham, and Newton Aycliffe, we are close to our customers. This network allows us to reduce transport distances, optimise delivery routes, and minimise the environmental impact linked to logistics.
