In a world where safe, secure, and sustainable delivery is more critical than ever, protective packaging plays a vital role in the global supply chain. Whether it’s shielding sensitive electronics, fragile medical devices, or industrial components, the need for reliable, tailored packaging has never been greater.
That’s where Advanced Protective Packaging, based in Manchester, stands out. With over three decades of industry expertise, we are proud to be one of the UK’s leading specialists in protective packaging—offering innovative solutions that keep products safe, reduce waste, and ensure customer satisfaction.
At Advanced Protective Packaging, we offer a broad and versatile selection of protective packaging products tailored to meet the demands of various industries. Our focus is always on quality, performance, and precision.
We specialise in designing and producing custom foam inserts that provide optimal protection for delicate and irregularly shaped items. Our bespoke foam packaging is ideal for sectors like aerospace, medical, and electronics, where component protection is critical.
We work with a range of materials, including:
Our corrugated cardboard boxes offer structural integrity with the benefits of recyclability and cost-efficiency. We design custom sizes and styles that complement our foam inserts and ensure safe delivery of your goods.
This versatile, closed-cell foam is used extensively for edge and corner protection. It’s lightweight, durable, and reusable—ideal for furniture, windows, and machinery.
We supply cheap bubble wrap for cushioning and pallet wrap for unit load security. These products help minimise movement, moisture ingress, and impact during transport and storage.
Secure your products while reinforcing your brand. Our printed packaging tapes offer a dual-purpose solution—keeping boxes sealed while displaying your logo or messaging.
