The state of the art, eco-building is committed to sustainable and environmentally friendly manufacturing and provides UK and European customers with a full print packaging service that includes print, die cutting, window patching, laminating, gluing and heat seal capabilities. There are also CTP reprographics and plate-making services on site.

Managing Director Jonathan Harris-Lowe said the new factory in Sri Lanka provides a sustainable endorsement to the ‘concepts to delivery’ service offered by the Group.

“As a major packaging supplier in the UK we need to be able to produce solutions in an environment that meets contemporary expectations and that’s why the Group has invested so heavily in the factory,” says Jonathan.

UK customers include apparel retailers, multiple chains and leading food and supermarket brands.

“We have built a strong reputation globally as well as in the UK; it’s one that’s built on research, investment and an ability to continually be at the forefront of sector developments.  We are leaders in carton packaging, using top quality design, materials and printing techniques, coupled with some of the industry’s fastest turnaround times.

“A major difference between Expo Industrial Group and its competitors is that the group owns its production sites and can therefore control quality, costs and delivery. That means we can influence and implement change at source,” adds Jonathan.
