NVC Lighting Partners with Packaging Suppliers Springpack

Since implementing Springpack’s Armour Wrap 12 months ago, the NVC Lighting team have achieved an expected cost saving of £4,000, while saving 47kg of plastic compared with previous wrap mechanics.

Armour Wrap is a high performance, multi-layered pallet wrap that provides strong puncture resistance, that can be stretched more than a regular wrap and will increase load stability.

The partnership is another step in NVC Lighting’s continued attempts towards a more sustainable operation, with the company achieving Carbon Neutral status in 2022.

Chris Reilly, Warehouse Manager at NVC Lighting, said:

Working with Springpack and using Armour Wrap has had a real positive impact on day-to-day operations in the warehouse. It’s a reliable, trusted service, helping us to increase efficiency and save plastic.

The business operates from purpose-built premises in Birmingham including offices, 90,000 ft² of warehouse space and an assembly facility for made-to-order products.

The switch to working with Springpack has also helped to improve NVC Lighting’s ability to make reliable and accurate forecasts regarding packaging in line with customer demands.

Andy Pagett, Chief Operating Officer at NVC Lighting, said:

As a business, we are constantly looking for ways to improve our environmental efficiency and identified packaging as an area to focus on. We reached out to Springpack to enquire about our warehouse consumable needs and have been really impressed with the results from a cost and innovation perspective. From an environmental standpoint, we have transitioned to using eco-friendly bubble wrap, air pillows, and document-enclosed wallets, all of which help contribute to our wider sustainability goals.

James York, Managing Director at Springpack, said:

We’re delighted to work with NVC Lighting, helping the team to reduce their plastic usage and fulfil customers’ orders in a timely, effective and sustainable way.
