What we pack and how we pack it
Gift sets & seasonal packs
Cosmetics, wines, spirits, FMCG—packed to retailer or campaign spec, with options for labelling, pillow packs and bespoke cartons.
Subscription boxes
Monthly or quarterly drops, assembled with branded inserts and personalised messaging for a premium unboxing experience.
POS & promotional kits
From influencer packs to trade support kits, we collate, check and despatch under tight timelines for launches and activations.
Decanting & re‑work
Bulk product into retail‑ready formats, including Soil Association‑audited processes for organic goods.
How we keep control
- Activity briefs agreed upfront—with cost estimates provided before work starts.
- First‑off sign‑off before full production run.
- QA checks and reporting throughout the process.
- Flexibility for curve balls—because campaigns rarely run in straight lines.
