We specify and supply packaging for Nuneaton businesses from the Midlands - around 20 minutes away, on M6 (J3), A5, A444 and B4114, with the stock already made rather than waiting on a production slot.
Packaging Stockholding in Nuneaton: specified against the product, the carriers and the stack, then supplied from Midlands Golden Triangle stock around 20 minutes away on M6 (J3), A5, A444 and B4114. WSUK also stores, picks, packs and despatches goods, so the packaging can sit with the operation that uses it.
A specified line list: boxes, mailers, sealing tape, protective materials, film and strapping, in trade quantities, repeating on a schedule set against what you really get through.
M6 (J3), A5, A444 and B4114 is the delivery route, around 20 minutes from our Lutterworth operation. Because the holding is central, the same stock covers Nuneaton, Hinckley and Bedworth without any of them paying for the space.
Manufacturing, distribution and engineering are the sectors we see most around Nuneaton. The common thread is packs that were specified for a product range that has since changed shape.
The road pattern around Nuneaton - M6 (J3), A5, A444 and B4114 - is what put the industrial estates where they are. Attleborough Fields and Bermuda Park are the names that come up most, with Bowling Green Industrial Estate alongside them, and the whole CV10-CV13 range is within an easy delivery radius of each other. For a packaging supplier that matters in a dull but useful way: one vehicle into Nuneaton can cover a lot of accounts.
WSUK does not hold packaging in Nuneaton, and that is deliberate rather than a limitation. Stock sits in the Midlands Golden Triangle, around 20 minutes away via M6 (J3), A5, A444 and B4114, which is where run quantities of printed and bespoke lines can be held without any individual customer paying for the space. A reorder from Nuneaton is a delivery from existing stock rather than a production lead time, and that difference matters far more day to day than how near the warehouse is.
Manufacturing, distribution and engineering are the sectors that dominate Nuneaton, which means the area's packaging spend is split between pallet-out and parcel-out operations. Those need different specifications - board grade and strapping on one side, carrier bands and inner restraint on the other - and businesses that have grown from one into the other frequently still hold the packaging for the old model.
Stockholding exists because of an awkwardness in how packaging is made. Anything printed or bespoke carries a setup - a plate, a cutting form, a changeover - spread across the run, so a short order is expensive per unit and a long one is cheap. The long run is almost always the better buy, and almost no Nuneaton business has the space to put it anywhere.
Holding more reduces the unit cost and increases what is committed to stock that has not been consumed yet. That balance is different per line: a fast-moving tape justifies a large run comfortably, while a printed carton for a seasonal Nuneaton line can tie up cash for most of a year. The sensible position is usually line by line rather than a single policy.
For Nuneaton operations running a peak season, packaging planning matters more than it looks. Reorder points set on a normal run rate will run dry in November, and print or bespoke lines cannot be conjured at short notice - which is the main argument for building stock ahead and calling it off.

Covered within the same Nuneaton delivery round:
For Nuneaton the practical advantages are consolidation, specification and continuity - one account instead of four, materials chosen against the product, and a reorder point set against what you actually use.
Nuneaton 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 20 minutes away than from a new production run.
Specification first, then a quote against it.
Product, quantities and how it travels from Nuneaton.
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 CV10-CV13, with call-off where the quantities suit.
Packaging Stockholding in Nuneaton at WSUK, answered plainly.
Supply is in trade quantities rather than retail packs, so there is a practical minimum per line. Tell us what you get through in Nuneaton and we will tell you what shape an order should take - we would rather not sell you a pallet of something you use twice a year.
You do not need to know. Describe the product, how it travels from Nuneaton and what is going wrong now, and specifying it is our job. If you already have a line list, send it and we will tell you what we would change.
Yes. WSUK provides storage, fulfilment, pick and pack, parcel despatch, transport and returns, so a Nuneaton business can have the packaging sit with the operation that uses it.
Yes, and they need different specifications. Online orders are about carrier size bands and network handling; manufactured goods are about stack load, restraint and corrosion. Plenty of Nuneaton businesses now do both and need both answered.
Because packaging is bulky and low value per cubic metre, which makes it the worst possible use of space you are paying for. If that space could hold sellable product instead, storing board in it is an expensive choice.
Yes, and that is the neatest version of this. If WSUK handles your fulfilment, the packaging never needs to travel to you at all.
