CRICKLADE-BASED GWP Group has launched a new division, GWP Correx, to meet increasing demand for its specialist packaging.

GWP Correx joins GWP Packaging, GWP Protective, GWP Coatings and GWP Conductive and offers a bespoke service in the design and manufacture of packaging products using polypropylene sheet material.

Correx is the material of choice for many packaging products as it is lightweight, durable and chemical and water resistant.

It has a number of different uses in reusable packaging such as customised picking bins, tote bins and containers for industrial applications.

Ian Cook, the firm’s MD, said: “Following huge growth in the number of customers we decided to create a new, dedicated division to manage this growing part of our business.

“This move should further enhance our drive towards complete customer satisfaction across a whole range of packaging materials”

As well as manufacturing reusable packaging, the new division is also a major stockist of the SSI-Schaefer range of rigid moulded containers.
