Allpack

Our History

The allpack® story began in Birmingham in 1994 when a young accountant and keen entrepreneur began selling boxes, tape and bubble wrap to local firms. He kept his stock in his garden shed and delivered it to our customers with just one small van.

Soon, word spread about the quality of our products and our service. Over the following years we gained new clients, expanded our range and developed our business, moving premises several times as we grew.

However, we've always stayed focused on our main specialisation: industrial transit packaging.

Today Allpack is an international packaging manufacturer serving UK & European clients with industry-leading, recognised brands and products. Today Allpack offers access to multiple manufacturing sites across UK, Europe and a global portfolio of suppliers our customers can rely on. We pride ourselves in our manufacturing and sourcing abilities, which results in competitive pricing across all our product ranges, for the benefit of all our customers.

Allpack is a team effort, with the DNA and synergy of the team shown in our core values:

Bold about Better

We believe good is the enemy of great. We believe there is always a better way, a better product, a better solution, a better process. We understand that perfection may be an impossible dream, but we focus on results, and we know that the relentless pursuit of better moves us continually in that direction. At a personal level, we hold ourselves accountable to get better results and we persevere in the face of setbacks that would drown most people. We are not most people – we just keep going.

Team Trust

We know at a deep level that personal success is not possible without the team. The lone-ranger figure is a fantasy. We support the team with passion, and the team supports us. We don’t let the team off, and they don’t let us off; it’s mutual. People respect and trust us. We walk our talk; We always have time to listen, and we don’t let people down. We don’t confuse trust and respect with being ‘nice’ – We can be tough when necessary, but our personal humility and respect for others means we always operate with consideration and compassion and consistency. And when someone wants to help us, we embrace the QTIP approach because when we ‘Quit Taking It Personally’ we totally understand that constructive criticism leads to a better me.
