Packaging Solutions for Bedford’s Industries
We focus on delivering high-performance packaging solutions for Bedford’s most dynamic sectors.
Major Logistics & Distribution
Bedford’s location attracts 3PLs and national distribution centres. Developments like G-Park Bedford Wixams demonstrate the substantial scale of logistics operations in this area.
We supply high-volume, automation-friendly packaging designed for these facilities, supporting maximum output and efficiency in highly automated warehouse environments. Our designs integrate with case erectors and automated packing lines, helping to eliminate disruptions.
Advanced Manufacturing & Engineering
The Central Bedfordshire region hosts a strong engineering and automation cluster. These companies produce high-value goods requiring complete protection throughout the supply chain.
We design and manufacture industrial transit packaging, heavy-duty pallet cases, and protective inserts for engineering and machinery companies. This ensures your products maintain their integrity from the factory to the destination.
Food & Drink Processing
Bedford supports a thriving food and drink sector, with a focus on production, packaging, and sustainability initiatives. We work with these companies on everything from chilled and frozen meal cartons to retail-ready die-cut solutions for produce and baked goods. We work with customers to reduce plastic use by developing effective paper-based alternatives that align with real-world supply chain demands.
Why Bedford Businesses Choose Manor Packaging
As Bedford’s industrial landscape expands, businesses need a packaging partner that can support their growth.
A Consultative, Design-Led Approach
We view your packaging as an integral component of your operational strategy. Our in-house design team collaborates closely with you to engineer solutions that exceed basic containment. We analyse your complete supply chain to identify opportunities for cost reduction. Better palletisation, faster packing times, more efficient material usage – we find what works.

Through our stakeholder position at the CorrBoard UK manufacturing plant, we maintain a secure supply of raw materials. This board is manufactured using a carbon-neutral process. It’s 100% recyclable with FSC® certification. Real sustainability that meets the requirements of evolving supply chains, not just marketing claims.
