WSUK supplies businesses in Cheltenham with the packaging they get through every week: trade quantities, specified line lists, bespoke and printed options, and stock held ready for call-off.
WSUK is a UK packaging company with stock about 60 miles / 1 hour 10 from our Bilston, Wolverhampton site of Cheltenham. B2B customers - manufacturers, wholesalers, retailers, distributors - get specified line lists, trade-quantity pricing, bespoke and printed options, and scheduled delivery into GL50-GL53.
Cartons, mailers, tape, void fill, film, strapping and pallet consumables, bought by the pallet or box quantity rather than in the small packs a cash-and-carry sells. One account, one invoice, one delivery schedule.
Made-to-size cartons, fitted inserts, profiled foam, printed tape and printed mailers. Specified alongside the format rather than bolted on afterwards, with a physical sample before any production run.
Storage, packaging, fulfilment, pick and pack, despatch and returns from the same business. For a Cheltenham account that means the people specifying the box are the people packing into it.
In GL50-GL53 the packaging question is rarely about the box on its own. It is about how much warehouse space the packaging occupies, how long the pack takes at the bench, which carrier band the finished parcel lands in, and how often something arrives broken. Lansdown, Hatherley and Staverton and the rest of the Cheltenham estates all have the same four problems in different proportions.
Stock sits about 60 miles / 1 hour 10 from our Bilston, Wolverhampton site, which puts Cheltenham comfortably inside a normal delivery schedule on M5 (J10-J11), A40, A435 and A46. More useful than the drive time is what central holding allows - bulk pricing, call-off, and the ability to change a specification between runs without writing off a warehouse full of the old one.
Local industry around Cheltenham is weighted towards cyber and technology, aerospace engineering, professional services and events retail. We quote all of them from the same stock position but not from the same specification, because a pack that survives a pallet network is not automatically a pack that survives a parcel network.
A Cheltenham enquiry does not need a brief. What you pack, roughly how many, how it travels and what has been failing is enough to specify against, and if the honest answer is that your current packaging is already right, that is what you will get back.
Once a Cheltenham account has its specification written down, the rest follows: the reorder point is set against consumption, the carrier band is known before the pack is built, and a change to a product triggers a change to its packaging rather than being absorbed by somebody adding more tape.
Some Cheltenham accounts take delivery of everything; some have us hold the printed lines and deliver the rest; some use our warehouse and pack benches and never see the packaging at all. All three are standard arrangements, and you can move between them without renegotiating anything.

The Cheltenham estates and nearby places we supply alongside the town itself:
The argument for consolidating Cheltenham packaging with one supplier is mostly arithmetic: fewer orders, better quantities, one invoice, and a specification that somebody is accountable for.
A packaging review is not a sales visit. It looks at materials, box sizes, warehouse space, carriage bands, pack time, damage and waste across your Cheltenham operation together, and reports what it finds - including the lines that are already specified correctly.
Specification first, commercial terms second.
Product, quantities and how it travels from Cheltenham.
Materials and sizes chosen for the product and the journey.
Priced against the specification, with a physical sample on anything bespoke or printed.
Delivered into GL50-GL53, with call-off where the quantities suit.
Packaging company questions from Cheltenham businesses, answered plainly.
Standard packaging lines in commercial quantities, bespoke cartons and fitted protection made to the product, printed packaging and tape, and the option to hold the stock centrally and call it off into GL50-GL53.
Yes, and most Cheltenham accounts do. Agreed lines, agreed quantities and an agreed delivery frequency, with the reorder point set against your consumption rather than against somebody noticing the shelf is empty.
Yes, and that is easier when we hold the stock. A Cheltenham account that calls off from a central holding can change board grade, size or print at the next run without writing off a warehouse full of the old version.
Yes. Stock is held in the Midlands Golden Triangle, about 60 miles / 1 hour 10 from our Bilston, Wolverhampton site, and delivered into GL50-GL53 and the surrounding South West and Wessex area on M5 (J10-J11), A40, A435 and A46.
Yes. A review that only ever finds savings is a sales pitch. If a Cheltenham operation is already buying the right material in the right quantity, that is what the findings will say.
Yes - recyclable corrugated, paper fill, paper tape, moulded pulp and plastic-free mailers. The larger reduction for most Cheltenham operations is right-sizing, and we will say so rather than overstate what a material change achieves.
