At Samuel Grant Packaging we are committed to reducing the impact that packaging has on the environment.

We help our clients to reduce their packaging consumption and waste, as well as advising how all parts of the packaging process can be recycled and reused. Samuel Grant Packaging's award-winning sister company, Marmax Recycled Products, is recycling in action - Marmax uses milk bottles to create high quality, durable, maintenance-free outdoor furniture and play equipment.
