Our #thermoformed trays are primarily for meats and proteins and are offered in 12 standard formats. If none are suitable for a customer, we design, develop and manufacture bespoke trays in-house - ensuring we can please all the people all of the time!!

Forget #shrovetuesday , #valentinesday, #daffodils and the first #lambs of the year... the real sign that Spring has finally sprung is when the call comes through from @PackNews that it's time for the annual #rigidplastics review!!

[LVF Packaging @LVFpackaging]

Plastic packaging isn't the root of the problem - it's what we do with it after it's been used that causes the issues. So, until a true successor can be found we need to work together and deliver a joined up approach to recycling that helps everyone.

Z is for... Zero.

That's right - the last entry in our A to Z of LVF Packaging is Zero because it represents the number of truly viable alternative packaging materials that have come to market since plastic became Public Enemy No1 following the broadcast of Blue Planet in 2018.

[LVF Packaging @LVFpackaging]

There are other options - such as paper pulp, thermoformable card and fabricated card - but each has shortcomings in terms of sustainability; how much energy is used in production; how well they protect and maintain the freshness of products; and how likely they're to be recycled

When it comes to business, Yorkshire's been home to thousands of success stories over the years - Marks and Spencer or Morrisons anyone? We may not have had quite their impact, but after 37-years in business, we're proud to stand up and say, we are a true Yorkshire success story.

[LVF Packaging @LVFpackaging]

Y is for... Yorkshire - the county that has given the world everyone from Captain James Cook to Keith Lemon; The Kaiser Chiefs to the Bronte's. And that's before we consider Yorkshire Puddings, Yorkshire Tea, the Yorkshire Dales and the Four Yorkshiremen.

X is for... XXXVII

It's 37-years since we were born under a garden shed
and while the shed is long gone, the business born out of it is still thriving.

W is for... We've been doing some work on our website and have a new product page that showcases all of our standard trays.

Unlike many other thermoformed packaging manufacturers, we also offer bespoke trays - we just need to know what you want.

V is for... very late #HappyNewYear24 greeting!

2024 is up and running (and it's finally stopped raining in #Yorkshire) and we're confident it's going to be an exciting year for everyone - no matter what industry you and your business operate in.

... and we think it's unbelievable that as we prepare to move into our 37th year in business that we're still doing exactly that!

[LVF Packaging @LVFpackaging]

U is for... Unbelievable, Jeff!

We've been manufacturing thermoformed packaging since '87 and have worked with the biggest names in retail, food production and processing, brewing, distilling and - where we came from - board game manufacturers.

... instead, we have the in-house capability to design and develop thermoformed packaging for any purpose. Our aim has always been to stay at the front of people's minds when it comes to selecting a packaging manufacturer to work with...
