Corrugated Packaging Kettering
Kettering’s Trusted Corrugated Packaging Supplier
Kettering has emerged as a significant hub within the UK’s food and logistics sectors, attracting numerous household name companies that have established extensive distribution networks in the town. The speed and accuracy with which these industries operate on doesn’t leave room for packaging suppliers who can’t keep up.
Our Peterborough base puts us close enough for daily deliveries via our vehicle fleet into Kettering’s industrial and business parks. After more than 35 years in the packaging industry, we understand precisely what high-volume, fast-moving companies in this area need from their packaging supplier.
Packaging Solutions for Kettering’s Industries
Everything we do revolves around delivering reliable, high-performance packaging for Kettering’s main business sectors.
Food Production & FMCG
Having Weetabix headquartered nearby in Burton Latimer highlights the area’s significance in the Fast-Moving Consumer Goods sector. Companies in this space can’t compromise on food safety or protection, but they also need packaging that’s ready for retail shelves. We produce printed retail cartons and Shelf-Ready Packaging (SRP) that satisfy the strict requirements major UK supermarkets impose.
Major Logistics & Distribution
The excellent rail and road links have attracted enormous distribution centres – Morrisons being just one example. Facilities processing this volume of goods require packaging that integrates seamlessly with their systems, not one that works against them. Our automation-friendly transit cases and e-commerce boxes integrate smoothly with automated warehousing and packing equipment. Creating less friction and more throughput.
Advanced Manufacturing & Engineering
Kettering isn’t just about food and retail. There’s serious industrial muscle here, too – engineering firms and advanced materials companies that ship expensive components all over the country. These businesses can’t afford damaged goods. We design and manufacture heavy-duty transit packaging, industrial pallet boxes, and bespoke B2B cases with protective interiors that safeguard valuable components during transportation.
Why Kettering Businesses Partner with Manor Packaging
Companies supplying national markets need packaging suppliers who won’t let them down.
A Consultative, Design-Led Approach
We dig into how your operation actually works. Our design team doesn’t just ask what size box you need – they want to understand your packing workflow, your transportation challenges, and where your products ultimately end up. Then we build a solution that uses materials more efficiently, speeds up your packing process, and cuts your costs.
Reliability That Meets Retailer Standards
Major retailers don’t negotiate on delivery schedules. Miss a window and you’re in trouble. Internal data shows our OTIF delivery performance consistently runs at 97–98%, supporting high-volume customer operations. Your packaging arrives on time, your lines stay operational, and your customers remain satisfied.
Guaranteed Supply & Real Sustainability
We hold a stake in CorrBoard UK’s manufacturing operation, which means our raw material supply can’t be interrupted. Their board is made from a carbon-neutral manufacturing process, is 100% recyclable, and carries FSC certification. This gives major brands the genuine sustainability credentials they need for their corporate responsibility programs.
If your Kettering operation needs a packaging partner that can handle the pressure, let’s have a conversation.
