About Cullen Packaging

That’s why everything we make is made from either recycled raw material or comes from a sustainable source.

Our Story

Cullen manufacture sustainable packaging, using innovative techniques to support companies worldwide.

For a 100 years, we’ve worked with businesses to deliver the ideal packaging solution on time and to specification. When packaging doesn’t do its job, it can become a complex and frustrating issue. That’s why our team offer simple, clear advice for a sustainable, plastic-free product.

At our 14 acre manufacturing site in Glasgow, Scotland, everything we make is recyclable. But for us, this isn’t enough. As manufacturers of moulded pulp and corrugate packaging, we believe in the principles of a circular economy, where waste can be recycled and reused again for a new purpose. That’s why we employ a closed-loop recycling system.
The off-cuts from our corrugate factory are collated and used again for the manufacture of moulded pulp, allowing us to eliminate corrugate raw material waste. By using our corrugate off-cuts, we have reduced the volume of bought-in newspaper we need and giving waste from one manufacturing process a new life in another.

To be industry leaders in both moulded pulp and corrugate, we have a dedicated team for each. We’ll discuss your requirements to understand what we can do to turn your concept into reality.
