Foam was the default. It is not the default any more.

For years, polystyrene and EPS were the obvious choice for protective packaging. Lightweight, familiar, easy to specify – and increasingly out of step with where customers, regulators and the wider supply chain are heading.

For many products, a bespoke corrugated solution does the same job, performs as well or better, and removes plastic from the supply chain.

The spec sheet is one thing. The packing line is another.

Your packaging was specified two years ago. Your products change. Your volumes change. Your line speeds change. Does your packaging?

A packaging audit pulls together what you're actually doing – damage rates, returns, disposal costs, line stoppages – and connects it back to packaging choice.

Most businesses find they're overspending on one line and underprotecting another.

If you haven't reviewed your packaging in the last twelve months, it's worth a conversation.

Castings one hour. Painted body panels the next. Small aftermarket components straight after that.

Automotive packing areas rarely deal with one product profile, which is exactly where packaging tends to drift – right specification on some lines, wrong on others.

At Samuel Grant Packaging, we work with automotive manufacturers, distributors and aftermarket businesses to get protection, throughput and cost balanced sensibly across that mix.

For manufacturers, what happens to your product once it leaves the factory matters as much as how it was made.

Poor pallet stability is one of the most common and costly sources of transit damage we encounter. And it is largely preventable.

– part of the Samuel Grant Group – specialises in pallet wrapping systems, strapping and load securing. Practical solutions for manufacturing and logistics operations across the UK.

That cheaper tape. Those 'equivalent' boxes. The stretch film that costs less per roll.

They look like savings. But are they?

Unit price tells you very little about what packaging actually costs your operation. The real number shows up elsewhere: in damaged goods, wasted material, more frequent changeovers and slower packing lines.

At Samuel Grant, we help businesses look beyond the quote and understand the full cost in use. It is one of the first things we look at in a free packaging audit.

Is your packaging as cost-effective as you think it is?

A family business built around people.

At Samuel Grant, many of our colleagues have been with us for decades. Some for over 30 years. Several families have worked across multiple generations.

This month, two colleagues at our North West branch mark 25 and 30 years of service. We are proud of both of them.
That loyalty and shared knowledge are what set us apart from businesses that treat packaging as a transaction.

When you call us, you speak to someone who knows your industry, knows your account and genuinely wants to help.

That is 135 years of business built on people like them.

What comes next after EPR reporting? For some larger producers, the next area to watch is recyclability.

Packaging design is no longer only about protecting the product in transit. It is increasingly about how packaging performs in the waste and recycling system too, and how that may affect future costs.

That means now is a sensible time to look at materials, pack formats, recyclability and packaging data together, rather than as separate issues.

At Samuel Grant Packaging, we help customers review packaging lines with performance, practicality and future compliance in mind.

At Samuel Grant, it's not just packaging products we supply to manufacturers and engineers.

Engineering Workshop – based in Sheffield with UK-wide coverage – provides a professional service for strapping and wrapping tools and machinery. That includes on-site inspections and repairs when needed.

For manufacturing operations, downtime caused by equipment failure is costly. Having a reliable, experienced team to call on makes a difference.

Curious about what happens during a packaging audit?

Our audits are practical and on-site. We look at how packaging is actually used in your operation – not just what appears on a specification sheet.

That includes:
📦 Packaging lines and workflows
📦 Materials used – boxes, films, tape, pallet wrap
📦 Equipment and dispensers
📦 Damage records and waste levels
📦 Sustainability and compliance considerations

You receive a clear report with practical recommendations. No obligation.
