Packaging Solutions

LeadEdge Flexo, an innovator in the corrugated and flexographic printing markets, is celebrating both its 15th year in business and its most successful growth period since its inception, recording 40% business growth over the past three years.

With a pre-press product range that includes innovative mounting products, plate carriers and consumables, the business has built a reputation as a leading supply chain partner to UK and international tradeshops and printers.

Michael Owen, managing director at LeadEdge, said: ‘We are thrilled to celebrate our 15thanniversary as a business. The business is going from strength to strength, and we have recently achieved record growth performance, which is a fantastic testament to the hard work of our team. LeadEdge brings more than 50 years of combined experience under one roof, reflected in how we are pushing quality, performance and sustainability further than ever before. 

‘We stand proud as a British business success story. The commitment of our talented team and the trust and loyalty of our customers meant that although the global pandemic dealt a severe blow to many smaller businesses, we were able to survive and thrive. We have since relocated to our cutting edge facility in Warrington, giving our flexo and corrugated customers the support they need.’

Marking LeadEdge’s 15th anniversary, the company was visited by local member of parliament for Warrington North, Charlotte Nichols. Seeing the site first hand, Charlotte learned more about the company’s journey as a proud Warrington born and bred business. 

Jon Moore, director at LeadEdge, added: ‘We supply pre-press companies around the globe, but we are still a straight talking Northern business with that ‘get the job done’ mentality. What sets our team apart is decades of experience in material science and first hand knowledge of our customers’ pain points. Our range evolves in response to real-world challenges that corrugated and flexo printers are facing, and this customer first approach to business is why we are in such a strong market position. 

‘Fifteen years after our inception, we are still breaking our growth records, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds.’
