Packaging Solutions

Loughborough’s Colton Packaging has made a significant investment in its transport capabilities, adding two new lorries to its fleet.

The packaging company has recently added one 7.5 tonne and one 18 tonne vehicle to its fleet, as part of a strategic move to support the company’s ongoing growth.

The new lorries mark a major step forward in the company’s logistics operations and will allow for more efficient, higher volume deliveries. The investment reflects a commitment to strengthening infrastructure and positioning the business for continued expansion.

Laura Colton-Smith, managing director at Colton Packaging, said: ‘This is an exciting period of growth for the business. Modernising our fleet opens up new opportunities – both operationally and commercially – and allows us to better serve our customers while preparing for future demand. These investments are not just about vehicles; they are about the future of our company and the confidence we have in where we are heading.’

With the addition of these two new lorries, 50% of the fleet has now been modernised over the past two years, demonstrating the company's understanding of modern day supply chains and the need for efficiency and reliability across its customer base.

This latest development further cements this Loughborough based company in its position as a reliable and growing partner within its sector, ready to meet the challenges and opportunities of the future.
