Designing, manufacturing and stocking products to precisely suit your needs, we ensure packaging is available in the timescales you require.
Since the 1960s Rigid has led the way in modern manufacturing principles ensuring customers not only benefit from innovation through continual investment, but also from highly cost-effective packaging solutions. Pioneering the first multi-plant corrugated operation with a central sales administration, we continue to push the boundaries of product development and service excellence - but remain lean and mean. |

Staying Ahead Of Industry Demands
The market is demanding transit packaging solutions which are moving towards next
day and even same day delivery. Promotional activities and innovation require support
services in design, graphics and packaging technology which are dynamic and react to
rapidly changing needs.
As well as the service aspect, our state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities are fully
integrated with advanced logistics operations at both sites, ensuring our products are
delivered on time, in full, every time. Our history of advanced development continues
with investment in the latest RF (radio frequency) technology which delivers total control
of stock management, all helping to guarantee service. |
