We're proud to announce that we have successfully achieved an AA+ grade in the BRCGS Global Standard for Packaging Materials Issue 7.
Having achieved an AA grading last year, this latest result demonstrates not only that our systems continue to meet the highest standards, but that they do so every day. The AA+ grade is awarded following a successful unannounced audit, meaning our operations, processes, and quality management systems were independently assessed without prior notice.
For our team, this is a particularly rewarding achievement. It reflects the culture of quality, safety, and continuous improvement that runs throughout our Norfolk manufacturing facility and underpins everything we do.
What Makes AA+ Different?
The BRCGS Packaging Materials Standard is one of the most respected certification schemes in the packaging industry, providing assurance that manufacturers consistently meet rigorous requirements for quality, safety, legality, and operational control.
While an AA grade already represents exceptional performance, the AA+ rating goes one step further. It confirms that high standards are maintained at all times, not simply in preparation for a scheduled audit.
Achieving AA+ provides independent verification that our procedures, training, traceability systems, housekeeping standards, and quality controls are embedded within our day-to-day operations.
What This Means for Our Customers
For the brands and businesses we work with, this certification provides added confidence that their packaging is manufactured within a facility that operates to internationally recognised best-practice standards.
Whether we're producing bottles, jars, closures, dispensing systems or custom packaging solutions, our customers can be assured that quality and product safety remain central to every stage of production.
This achievement supports our commitment to delivering:
- Consistent product quality.
- Robust quality management systems.
- Full material and product traceability.
- Effective risk management and process control.
- Continuous improvement across all areas of our business.
A Team Effort
Accreditations such as BRCGS are never achieved by one department alone. This result is a testament to the commitment, attention to detail, and professionalism shown by every member of our team.
From production and technical teams to warehousing, maintenance, administration, and customer support, everyone plays a role in maintaining the standards that our customers depend upon.
Looking Ahead
While we're delighted to have achieved AA+ certification, we see it as another step in our ongoing journey rather than a final destination.
As a UK manufacturer with more than 50 years of experience in plastic packaging, we remain committed to investing in our people, our processes, and new technologies that help us deliver the highest standards of quality, service, and sustainability.
We would like to thank our entire team for their hard work and dedication, and our customers for their continued trust and support.
