35 years of experience across South Africa's most demanding packaging sectors.

Food & Bakery

Food-grade corrugated packaging for bakeries, delis, confectioners, and food producers. We manufacture to food-contact standards and can produce short to medium runs for seasonal and speciality products. For customers requiring packaging that endures the cold chain, we have a water-based coating which has been proven to improve thermal characteristics and increased resistance to moisture and oil ingress.

  • Gift & presentation boxes
  • Display & POS boxes

Exporting from South Africa comes with phytosanitary complexity. Our ISPM15-compliant paper pallets eliminate the fumigation requirement for wooden pallets, simplifying export documentation and reducing cost.
