About us
Faspak was formed in Nottingham in 1973 as one of the original JIT service companies.
We manufacture all quantities of corrugated boxes made to customers' exact size and deliver locally within 48 hours. We can save you money overall by reducing your stock and space.
We deliver exact quantities - no shortages and no chargeable overs.
We also improve your cash-flow by supplying only what you need for orders actually received.
In 1973 we had one specialist box-making machine and finishing equipment in one factory unit in Nottingham. We now have 4 box-making machines in our main factory together with single colour flexo printing machines.
One of the other Nottingham units is now dedicated to constructional design and die-cut manufacturing on 4 other machines.
More sophisticated printing is subcontracted to local trade houses.
