We specify and supply packaging for Lutterworth businesses from the Midlands - around 15 minutes away, on M1 (J20), A426, A5 and M6 (J1), with the stock already made rather than waiting on a production slot.
WSUK supplies industrial packaging to businesses in Lutterworth and across Leicestershire. Stock is held in the Midlands Golden Triangle - around 15 minutes from Lutterworth by road on M1 (J20), A426, A5 and M6 (J1) - and delivered into LE17. The specification work happens first: what the product is, how it travels, and what is going wrong now. One-off runs and standing call-off schedules both work.
Trade quantities of the consumables, plus made-to-size cartons, fitted inserts and printed lines where the product or the brand justifies producing them.
Stock sits centrally in the Golden Triangle rather than in a local yard, which is what makes run quantities of printed and bespoke lines affordable. Lutterworth is around 15 minutes away via M1 (J20), A426, A5 and M6 (J1).
National distribution, 3pl and warehousing. Plenty of Lutterworth businesses now despatch both pallets and parcels, and those need genuinely different packaging even for the same product.
Lutterworth covers LE17, and its goods traffic runs on M1 (J20), A426, A5 and M6 (J1). The estates - Market Harborough, Magna Park (the UK's largest dedicated distribution park), Mere Lane - are where the pallets and parcels actually leave from. Walk round any of them and you will find the same packaging picture: more box sizes than anyone can justify, two kinds of tape doing one job, and void fill chosen because it was in the cupboard.
Supply into Lutterworth comes out of Midlands stock around 15 minutes away. The point of central holding is lead time rather than distance: a business in Lutterworth ordering a printed carton from scratch is waiting on a production slot, whereas one calling off from held stock is waiting on a vehicle. For anything with a plate, a form or a changeover behind it, that is the difference that shows up in your week.
Lutterworth's profile in National distribution, 3pl and warehousing means the practical packaging conversation here is usually about damage and about delivered cost rather than about unit price. A business losing product in transit is paying for the goods, both carriage legs, the replacement and often the customer, so protective specification tends to be the first thing worth fixing.
Strapping, film and stretch wrap are consumables with specifications, not generic items. Film gauge and pre-stretch decide containment force; strap material and tension decide whether a heavy case stays on its base. For a Lutterworth operation wrapping continuously these are also the lines where consumption is highest, so specification and supply reliability both matter.
Timber crating against heavy-duty corrugated is the decision that comes up most. Corrugated is lighter, cheaper, easier to store and recyclable at the far end; a crate survives handling that would destroy board and can be opened and reclosed. For a Lutterworth business the honest test is what the worst handling on the route looks like, not the average.
A useful exercise for any Lutterworth operation: count your box sizes, then count how many of them are genuinely needed. Most businesses find two or three that nearly duplicate another, each carrying its own stock, its own shelf space and its own decision at the pack bench.

Around 15 minutes from our Lutterworth site.
National distribution, 3pl and warehousing.
Also delivered into these Leicestershire areas on the same schedule:
The reason to buy centrally is lead time and price together: a full run held in the Midlands means Lutterworth gets run-quantity pricing without storing a run, and a reorder is a vehicle rather than a production slot.
Lutterworth firms tend to come to us with a damage problem or a delivered-cost problem. Both are specification problems, and both are easier to fix from held stock around 15 minutes away than from a new production run.

Industrial Packaging in Lutterworth at WSUK, answered plainly.
Yes - distance is not the constraint, evidence is. Send us damaged returns or photographs of how items arrive and we can specify against the actual cause rather than adding protection and hoping.
Yes. Stock is held in the Midlands Golden Triangle, around 15 minutes from Lutterworth by road on M1 (J20), A426, A5 and M6 (J1), and delivered into LE17 and the surrounding Leicestershire area.
Yes. WSUK provides storage, fulfilment, pick and pack, parcel despatch, transport and returns, so a Lutterworth business can have the packaging sit with the operation that uses it.
That is what a packaging review is for, and we will not quote you a percentage before looking. It examines materials, storage, transport, labour, damage and waste together and sets the findings out in writing.
Yes - VCI materials, moisture barrier films and desiccants, specified against how long the item is stored and in what conditions rather than applied as a default.
Yes. Heavy duty board and composite case constructions avoid the treatment and certification requirements timber brings, and are frequently lighter for the same protection.
