Independent Advice. Practical Solutions. Measurable Results.

Every business has different packaging requirements. I therefore tailor my involvement to the specific challenge — from a one-off packaging review through to managing a complete supplier tender or packaging improvement programme.

Packaging Reviews

A fresh, independent look at your existing packaging can often uncover opportunities that are difficult to see when you're too close to the day-to-day operation.

Cost Reduction

Packaging costs are about more than the price of the box. Material usage, palletisation, storage, transport, damage and supplier performance can all have a significant impact on the true cost.

Sustainability

Sustainable packaging needs to work commercially as well as environmentally. I help businesses identify practical opportunities to reduce material usage, improve recyclability and reduce the overall environmental impact of their packaging.

E-Commerce Packaging

E-commerce packaging has to withstand a very different supply chain from traditional palletised distribution. I help businesses develop packaging that protects the product, minimises damage and returns, uses materials efficiently and delivers a positive customer experience.
