Plastic is so passé. Consumers are increasingly aware of how their purchasing decisions affect the environment, but it’s not just products they’re focused on — it’s packaging too. Most packaging suppliers aren’t committed to a plastic-free future in the way that we are. Everything we do centres around helping brands create memorable experiences for their customers using sustainable packaging.
By opting for high-quality, recycled and recyclable packaging materials, you’re helping to preserve the planet’s resources by reducing packaging waste. You’ll also be saving money by avoiding increased costs for plastic packaging through taxes and bans on plastic packaging.
Discover our range of eco-friendly packaging or take your eco-conscious efforts to the next level with custom packaging. Join us in protecting the planet with sustainably sourced packaging supplies.

Eco-friendly packaging can be a powerful marketing tool to drive sales and increase customer loyalty for your business. Today’s consumers are increasingly aware of the environmental impact of their purchasing decisions, and many are actively seeking sustainable products and plastic-free packaging. Using eco-friendly packaging, you can show your eco-conscious customers that you share their values and are committed to reducing your environmental impact. This can help build trust and loyalty with your customers and even attract new ones specifically looking for environmentally responsible businesses.

Opting for compostable mailing bags is a wise decision when packaging clothing items, as they gradually decompose over time. Our compostable mailing bags are crafted from renewable plant-based materials, such as cornstarch, and are fully biodegradable within as little as 90 days in an optimal composting environment. In addition, we use eco-friendly water-based inks to print a sustainable message on these bags, making it clear to your customers that you prioritise the planet.
Postal boxes and mailers are popular choices for clothes packaging too. They provide additional protection and durability, making them ideal for shipping delicate items such as hats, shoes, and jewellery. Our postal boxes come in brown and white variations, comprising 80% recycled materials.
Custom-made packaging is a suitable option for smaller items, but our book wrap mailers can offer a more budget-friendly solution. These mailers are 100% biodegradable, compostable, and recyclable, making them an environmentally conscious choice. One of the major benefits of this packaging is its versatility, as it allows for the safe and secure shipment of fragile products with varying measurements. This eliminates the need to purchase separate boxes for each product, making the packing and shipping process more streamlined and cost-effective.
If you’re selling your beverages in retail stores or supermarkets, you’ll need shelf-ready packaging trays and boxes to make your products easily transportable. Custom-designed shelf-ready packaging needs to be quickly configured for display or picked up by a curious consumer in-store. For subscription alcohol boxes, our bespoke gift boxes can offer a unique unboxing experience for consumers and encourage repeat purchases. Remember — we can also create custom corrugated packaging and folding cartons for more unusual packaging designs to give you an aesthetic edge over your competitors.
It depends on the size of your cosmetic or hair care products. If you’re sending heavier items out for delivery, postal boxes and mailers are a sustainable and efficient solution to ensure your products arrive in good condition. To add a bit of customisation, try some colourful, compostable tissue paper to wrap up your rivals. Custom stickers are a low-cost way to showcase your brand and make your products memorable.
Yes! Our self-seal postal boxes remove the need for extra tape, saving you packing time. Of course, we can brand these for you, too, and our branded eCommerce packs are a budget-friendly option with a minimum order quantity of 50 units.
Packaging Supplies offers a custom subscription box design service which can effectively showcase your brand to your intended audience. Our in-house creative team can assist you in finalising your subscription box packaging, and we utilise 100% non-toxic, environmentally friendly water-based inks in our printing processes. Plus, we can give you various custom sizing options to meet your specific needs.

In the late 1970s, two friends and colleagues, Tim Allen and Stewart Middleton saw a gap in the market for a different type of packaging supplier. At the time, other businesses were selling custom made boxes and stocking packaging consumables, but Tim and Stewart wanted to offer more than that. They wanted to give their clients additional services, such as warehouse storage and the ability to have their packaging delivered as and when it was required. Packaging Supplies was established, and the rest is history.
