As part of Local Community and History Month, we’re looking at how far packaging machinery has come since the 1990s.

From hands-on, manually operated equipment to today’s precision-engineered, high-speed systems.

The evolution has transformed not just how we manufacture your packaging, but how efficiently and consistently we can deliver.

What hasn’t changed? Our focus on quality, reliability, and getting the job done right. 🧐

At GWP, sustainability is something we actively invest in across our operations. ♻️📦

Back in September 2025, we invested in a new wastewater treatment facility at our Cricklade site, allowing us to treat wastewater onsite rather than transporting around 350,000 litres off-site each year.

This reduces our transport emissions, improves efficiency, and forms part of our wider programme of sustainability investments.

👉It’s another step in our ongoing commitment to reducing environmental impact while continuing to deliver high-quality packaging solutions, you can take a look at our sustainability journey here: https://www.gwp.co.uk/news/
