An Important Update from Cedesa: Returning to a Five-Day Working Week

Four years ago, Cedesa introduced a four-day working week with a clear ambition: to work smarter, support our team’s wellbeing and improve operational efficiency. We believed it was the right step to explore, and we’re proud of what we’ve learned along the way.

Throughout this journey, we’ve remained committed to one principle: listening to our customers, suppliers and team.

Over recent months, feedback from our long-standing customers and suppliers, alongside a review of our operational performance, has highlighted an important reality. While we continue to improve efficiency, meeting growing demand and customer expectations requires greater production capacity and availability.

With that in mind, we’ve made the decision to return to a five-day working week from 1 January 2027.

What this means for our customers:

✅ Increased production capacity — an additional working day each week to support greater demand.

✅ Improved lead times — helping us fulfil orders more efficiently and support your own commitments.

✅ Greater availability — more consistent access to our team for enquiries, updates and support.

✅ Increased flexibility — better capacity to respond to urgent requirements and changing demand.

What this means for our suppliers:

🤝 Better coordination — closer alignment with the standard Monday-to-Friday working week.

🤝 More consistent communication — improved availability and more timely responses.

🤝 Stronger collaboration — a more predictable working relationship as we continue to grow together.

We see this change not as a step backwards, but as an opportunity to build on four years of experience and apply what we’ve learned. Our commitment to efficiency, our people and continuous improvement remains unchanged. What matters now is ensuring our operating model enables us to deliver the service, reliability and responsiveness our customers expect.

To all our customers and suppliers who have shared their feedback openly, thank you. Your input has played an important role in shaping this decision, and we value the trust and relationships we’ve built over the years.

As we look ahead to 2027, we’re focused on strengthening our service, increasing our capacity and continuing to deliver for the businesses that rely on us.

Thank you for being part of the Cedesa journey.

🌱 Rethinking Packaging: Small Changes, Big Environmental Impact 🌱

After months of trials, testing and collaboration, we are excited to share a proposal that could help businesses make a meaningful step towards more sustainable packaging solutions.

For years, clear plastic parcel tape has been the standard choice for sealing cardboard boxes. However, as we continue to focus on improving recyclability and reducing unnecessary plastic usage, we have been exploring an alternative approach — moving towards paper-based adhesive sealing solutions.

📦 Why does this matter?

By replacing traditional plastic clear tape with a paper-based alternative, businesses can potentially:

✅ Improve cardboard recycling efficiency
✅ Reduce plastic contamination during the recycling process
✅ Support a more circular packaging model
✅ Reduce reliance on single-use plastic materials
✅ Help organisations address challenges linked to the Plastic Packaging Tax (PPT)

The packaging industry is changing, and we believe innovation does not always mean a complete redesign — sometimes it starts with something as simple as the tape used to close a box.

Our latest trials demonstrate how a small adjustment in packaging choices can contribute towards bigger sustainability goals, without compromising performance, security or presentation.

At CEDESA, we are committed to working with customers to find smarter adhesive solutions that support both operational needs and environmental responsibility.

🌍 The future of packaging is not just about what is inside the box — it is also about how the box is sealed.

We would welcome conversations with businesses looking to explore more sustainable packaging options.

Our ownership changed. Our family spirit stayed. 💙

This National Family Business Day, we’re celebrating the family roots that helped shape Cedesa Ltd and the people carrying that spirit forward.

In 2020, Cedesa moved from family ownership to employee ownership—a new chapter that gave the people behind our business a stake in its future.

We still carry that family feeling: knowing the people you work alongside, looking out for each other, and taking shared pride in a job well done. Employee ownership gives those connections an extra meaning. We’re building something that belongs to us, together.

Today, we celebrate the family who laid the foundations and our employee owners who continue to build on them. Thank you to our colleagues, customers and partners for being part of the Cedesa story.

Family roots. Employee owned. A future we share.
