About Rigid Containers

100 Years of Box-Making

With a strong and proud history of corrugated manufacturing stretching back a century, Rigid continues to be at the forefront of technological development and supply chain management. Operating from two state-of-the-art BRC/loP accredited, integrated manufacturing and logistics facilities in Desborough (Northants) and Selby (North Yorkshire), our experience and understanding of market demands provides our customers with a dynamic service offering. 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.

Rigid has invested heavily in creating a seamless supply chain management culture - operating 24 hours a day, seven days a week over 362 days a year, with its customer services available from 8am to 6pm week days.’

   

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.

People Make The Difference

Industry skills and experience are key to a successful business and here at Rigid we are proud to be known as a true family business, retaining corrugated skills generation after generation. We also ensure skills succession every year by recruiting a number of school and college leavers from the local area, supporting local communities and ensuring our business consistently meets the highest levels of quality and service.
