What is Samuel Grant Packaging and what does the company offer?

Samuel Grant Packaging (samuelgrant.co.uk) is a family-owned UK B2B protective packaging supplier and packaging design partner that has operated since 1891. It supplies packaging materials — corrugated, cushioning and void fill, paper products, strapping and transit products, polythene and plastics, stretch films, and adhesives, tapes and labels — alongside services such as packaging audits, pallet stability systems and machinery/automation solutions. It is aimed at UK businesses that want to reduce damage, improve throughput and control packaging cost, rather than at consumers buying small quantities.

Who the company is

The site describes the business as "family-owned B2B protective packaging experts since 1891," with over 135 years of experience. Its stated approach is consultative: it positions itself as helping customers "specify packaging properly, not just buy on price," combining packaging audits, data and hands-on experience.

This matters if you are choosing a supplier. The pitch is not simply a catalogue of materials — it is a partner that will review how you currently pack and recommend changes. That suits businesses with recurring damage, throughput or compliance problems; it is less relevant if you only need a one-off price on a single product line.

Product range

The site lists the following product categories:

The site describes the range as "thousands of options, tailored to your sector," so the categories above are the entry points rather than a full SKU list. For exact specifications, sizes or availability, you would need to enquire directly — the homepage does not publish detailed product data.

Services beyond materials

Three service areas stand out:

• Packaging audits. The site invites businesses to "call us for a comparison packaging audit" and describes a "long standing and highly experienced team of packaging experts." An audit is the natural first step if you want an independent view of whether your current packaging is over- or under-specified.
• Pallet stability. This includes bespoke stretch films "manufactured to your exact requirements" and the Samson Nano, described as an award-winning system developed by Samuel Grant (now Samson Pallet Stability) offering a "fixed-price-per-wrapped-pallet." The site frames this as "proven technology that keeps your loads safe."
• Machinery and automation. The company says it delivers solutions "from corrugated and void fill to pallet stability and automation," which points to equipment as well as consumables.

Sustainability and compliance support

The site highlights "sustainable packaging and EPR support" as part of what it helps businesses with, and its navigation includes Sustainability, a Sustainability Report, ECOVADIS, and Compliance and Guidance. The stated goal is to "balance protection, recyclability and total cost in use."

If extended producer responsibility (EPR) obligations or recyclability targets are part of your decision, these pages are the place to check what the company actually provides — the homepage only signals the capability, not the detail.

How to decide whether it fits

Use the site if you are a UK business that wants:

• a supplier who will audit and specify packaging rather than just fill an order;
• a broad single source across corrugated, void fill, paper, plastics, strapping and labels;
• pallet stability or wrapping automation, including bespoke film;
• help connecting packaging choices to sustainability and compliance requirements.

Look elsewhere first if you need published online prices, self-service ordering without an account conversation, or consumer-sized quantities. The site shows a "Customer login here" link, indicating an account-based relationship, and it does not publish pricing — so treat cost as something to establish through a quote or audit conversation. The most direct next step the site offers is contacting the company to arrange a packaging audit or discuss a specific requirement.
