About us

Chadwicks is the world leader in heat seal, pre-cut lid manufacture technology with an unbeatable reputation for quality, global service, flexibility and innovation.

Our products are used across varied markets including dairy, food and drinks. Our commitment to excellence extends from our largest to our smallest customers.

From our head office and manufacturing site in Bury, Greater Manchester, we use the latest technology and processes to maintain our position at the forefront of the industry – somewhere we have always been since the day we were founded.

We have 50 cutting presses at our disposal – the largest number in Europe – as well as access to over 300 tool sizes, making us capable of supplying lids in more than 300 shapes and sizes.

Our reputation is founded on our in-house design studio origination and print preparation and ability to produce high quality flexographic printing, including UV printing, in up to eight colours. Clients can call upon a wide range of materials to suit all applications and container types and are supported with technical expertise and back-up including on-site technical visits.

We have been working to the highest possible standards for the past 50 years and are proud to have claimed 28 European printing awards in recognition of the benchmark standards we have been setting.

We are part of the flexible packaging division of the internationally renowned Clondalkin Group and employ more 120 people, with sales offices around the world helping us to maintain strong contact with our overseas customers who make up around 50% of our work.
