WE’RE at that point in the festive season when hopefully most of the presents have been bought (and maybe even wrapped), cards written and those of you in the hot seat this Christmas will be gearing up to peel that tonne weight of potatoes, sprouts and carrots!
You may well be planning something away from the norm. Breaking with tradition maybe? Wanting to gift something more individual or customised than usual?
Searching for that personal touch, that ‘something different’, is where smaller businesses can often help, tending to offer a more flexible, custom-made approach.
This is certainly the case where contract manufacturing is concerned. At Grotech Production Ltd, we have some 40 years’ experience of providing a bespoke chemical contract manufacturing and packing service so when our customers ask for ‘something different’, that’s music – maybe even jingle bells – to our ears!
That ‘something different’ could relate to anything designed to make your product stand out from its competitors. Perhaps you have an idea for a product which needs developing from scratch? Or an existing formulation which needs some improvement such as to reduce sediment, clumping together or maybe just to make it look nicer? Looking to make your business ‘greener’ – this is something close to our heart and we have lots of ideas such as granules made of recycled newsprint or featuring an environmentally friendly surfactant.
Why not make your packaging your USP? We can advise upon and source customised bottles, buckets and bags in varying shapes, sizes and colours with special caps, lids or closures to enable dosing, venting or providing tamper evidence. Then build upon this with your labelling. Labels offer masses of opportunities for differentiation: they can be of a leaflet design including all the information required while a printed sleeve, shrunk to the container, may be able to do this while also providing tamper evidence and the ability to label an unusual shape.
While we all want to reduce the amount of packaging being used, there’s no escaping the benefit of boxes when it comes to distributing multiple units. Not only do they make it easier to palletise, but those shipping cartons with handholes are easier to manoeuvre and the boxes can also be branded, reflecting and promoting the product within.
Your branding can also be extended to any palletising required with large labels attached to the wrapped pallet. If the nature of your product requires extra care needs to be taken during transit, we can also make its palletisation bespoke to ensure items are secure while prevented from knocking against each other.
However you may be looking to break with the norm, we are the ‘helpful manufacturing people’ who can steer you in the right direction. Why not get 2022 off to a good start by giving us a call on 01405 761746 or email us here?
Until then, from all at Grotech Production Ltd, we wish you a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
