Packaging for Chemicals, Paints & Coatings

The transport and storage of industrial chemicals, specialized paints, and protective coatings presents unique challenges centered on regulatory compliance and absolute containment. Our packaging solutions are engineered to manage the risks associated with volatile liquids and hazardous materials, ensuring safety from filling to final destination.

We don't just supply boxes; we provide certified, leak-resistant systems that minimize risk, guarantee compliance, and protect your brand's integrity.

Safety and Compliance: Non-Negotiable Containment

The greatest risk in this sector is non-compliance and spillage. Our expertise is focused on providing secondary and tertiary packaging that meets the highest industrial standards for safe transit and stacking stability.

Structural Integrity & Strength

High-strength corrugated packaging undergoing compression testing to ensure structural integrity and stacking stability for heavy chemical loads

We design packaging that secures inner containers (cans, bottles, pails) using customized corrugated fitments and tested closures. This provides essential containment and prevents leakage due to shock and vibration.
We ensure the packaging meets required industrial stacking and handling criteria by calculating for board strength, humidity, and transit conditions to prevent collapse or compromise during warehousing and distribution.

Leak Prevention & Containment

Internal view of chemical secondary packaging featuring absorbent liners and precision-fit dividers designed for leak prevention and spill containment during transit

Solutions are engineered to provide maximum security for inner containers, utilizing bespoke corrugated partitions and locking features to prevent shifting, puncture, and spillage.
Our fitments serve as a protective barrier, maintaining the integrity of the primary container even under industrial handling pressures.

Standards & Assurance

Certified chemical shipping cases displaying UN-specification markings and compliance stamps for international safety standards and quality assurance

We ensure the packaging strictly meets all necessary regulatory requirements and required industrial safety standards relevant to non-UN packaging.
We provide the necessary technical specifications and documentation related to the structural performance of the packaging to satisfy auditors and carriers regarding safety and unit load stability.

Specialty Packaging Formats

Our solutions move beyond standard corrugated to incorporate high-performance materials and specialized formats necessary for chemical and paint handling.

Liquid Container Shippers

Reinforced corrugated shipping cases for chemical liquid containers, engineered for puncture resistance and secure containment during hazardous goods transit."

Pail and Can Shippers

Our Pail and Can Shippers are single or multi-pack corrugated shippers designed for securing metal or plastic containers. The primary benefit is providing high crush-resistance to protect against container deformation and potential leaks during transit.

Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) Outer Packaging

This solution involves Customized Outer Corrugated Packaging or specialized transit units for larger bulk liquid shipments. It offers a protective, cost-effective alternative to rigid outer containers, potentially saving on return logistics (where applicable for custom bulk liners).

Multi-Component Kitting

Industrial multi-pack kits for chemical products, featuring custom internal dividers to prevent bottle-to-bottle contact and ensure pallet stability in the supply chain

Multi-Pack Kits (Commercial & Retail)

The Multi-Pack Kits utilize custom die-cut corrugated inserts designed to precisely secure multiple components like hardeners, resins, thinners, and applicators in a single kit. This solution offers the benefit of simplifying inventory management, reducing picking errors, and guaranteeing all necessary components arrive together, securely separated to prevent contact damage.

Retail & Display Solutions

Retail-ready packaging (SRP) for domestic chemical and cleaning products, designed for high-strength stacking and easy-access shelf display in hardware or supermarket aisles

Retail-Ready Display Packs

Retail-Ready Display Packs are display units for consumer paints, adhesives, and aerosols, built for high shelf appeal and efficient stock rotation. The primary benefit is that the design ensures clear product visibility and strong branding presentation while maintaining the strict structural stability required for heavy canned or glass products on the retail shelf.

Optimise Your Packaging: Safety & Compliance in Chemicals, Paints & Coatings

Getting the right industrial packaging is critical for the Chemicals, Paints, and Coatings sectors. It goes beyond basic dimensions—it’s about ensuring the secure containment of hazardous and non-hazardous materials, prioritizing regulatory compliance, and maximizing logistics efficiency throughout the supply chain.

We are experts in combining high-level Structural Engineering with technical precision, helping you optimize for:

Product Protection & Integrity (Spill Prevention & Containment): Eliminate common errors that lead to compromised product safety or risk spills during transit. We ensure the correct certified board grades with high wet-strength properties, robust internal supports, and specialized coatings are used to secure diverse containers—from cans and pails to complex liquid product kits—providing essential protection against crushing, puncture, and moisture ingress.
Logistics Efficiency & Handling (Stacking & Unitisation): Design packaging to minimize freight costs by optimizing pallet configurations and maximizing container utilization. We focus on structures that offer superior vertical stacking strength, ensuring efficient warehousing and safe, quick handling across complex distribution networks without compromising package integrity.
Safety & Structural Standards (Industrial Shipping): Ensure your packaging strictly meets all necessary regulatory requirements and required industrial safety standards. We focus on structures compliant with common shipping and freight regulations and designed for high structural integrity, crucial for safe global distribution and auditing.
