West Island regularly design, develop and print boxes and cartons for many of the UK's leading manufacturers and retailers. These can be simple or they can involve a complex range of forms and finishes depending on customer requirements. This service also extends to include point of sale and point of purchase promotional materials too.

Our production facility boasts an extensive range of equipment capable of cutting, folding and gluing with in-house carton design engineers creating innovative packaging concepts.

We operate a multi-colour facility, capable of printing onto board of up to 800 microns, producing rigid, durable boxes, point of sale units and packaging. Die cutting and creasing, window patching, folding and gluing are all carried out in-house, allowing total control over product finishing which allows for the creation of complex cartons. A variety of materials can be used, from recycled grades to high quality and food grade boards.

• Die and kiss cutting

Processes are carried out in-house to exacting standards to minimise customer downtime when using products.
