What packaging is best for manufacturers?

That depends on what you’re making, how your products are handled and where they’re going next. We’ll recommend manufacturing packaging that’s right for your products, whether they’re being stored on site, transported between locations or shipped directly to your customers.

Can you help us protect products during storage and transport?

Yes. Products can be damaged long before they reach the customer. We’ll look at how they’re packed, stored, palletised and transported before recommending packaging that’s right for the journey they’ll make.

Can you hold packaging stock for us?

Yes. If warehouse space is tight or you don’t want to store large quantities of packaging on site, we can hold stock and deliver it as you need it. That means your packaging is there when you need it, without taking up valuable space in your warehouse.

Can you support businesses with multiple manufacturing sites?

Yes. We work with businesses working across multiple production and warehouse locations and can help coordinate packaging supply to keep each site stocked with the products it needs.

Can you review the packaging we're already using?

Of course. Packaging that’s worked well for years isn’t always the best fit as products, production processes and customer requirements change. We’ll review your current packaging and recommend improvements where we believe they could add value.

Can you supply more than just our packaging?

Yes. Many of our customers choose Penketh as a single-source supplier for their packaging and warehouse essentials. It means fewer suppliers to manage, fewer orders to place and one team that understands how your business works.

How do we get started?

It starts with a conversation. We’ll learn about your products, production process and the challenges you’re facing before recommending packaging that’s right for your operation.

Manufacturing & Industrial Industries- Penketh Packaging

Packaging that keeps production moving

In a manufacturing environment, packaging is part of the production process. Components need protecting, finished products need preparing for storage and transport, and packaging needs to be available exactly when it’s needed. If the right materials aren’t on hand, production can quickly slow down.

We’ve worked with manufacturers across Manchester, Liverpool, Warrington, Chester and the wider North-West, helping them choose manufacturing packaging that’s right for their products, production processes and supply chains. Whether you’re moving components between sites, preparing products for export, or shipping finished goods to customers, we’ll recommend packaging that fits how your operation runs.

The Challenges We See

When production slows down, packaging is often part of the conversation

We’ve worked with manufacturers where production is waiting for packaging to arrive, finished products are taking up valuable warehouse space, or goods are being damaged before they even leave the site. Sometimes the packaging has been used for years without anyone stopping to ask whether it’s still the right fit for the products being made today.

That’s why we look beyond the packaging itself. We’ll spend time understanding how products move through your production process, including packing and storage, to dispatch, before recommending changes that support the way your operation works.
