With Aegg’s turnover almost doubling since this time last year, Aegg has invested £millions into its packaging logistics infrastructure to facilitate growing demand of its recyclable glass and plastic food and drink packaging supplies ranges. This means that Aegg’s ability to manage the supply chain (for example, importing glass bottles and jars and delivering to a customer’s factory doors in the UK) is now more seamless due to bringing several services in-house.

Nick Parker, Aegg’s Marketing Director, interviewed Pawel Wieczorek, Aegg’s Commercial Director and glass expert, for his thoughts on packaging supplies and the changing nature of the demand for glass food and drink packaging.

As Aegg’s PR consultant, I was invited to attend Aegg’s company briefing at its HQ in Andover, where members from the senior management team updated staff on how the company is doing in relation to its glass and plastic packaging supplies to the food and drink markets.

Having listened to a day of seminars at Packaging Innovations this blog is a summary of thoughts that came from those on stage, or were catalysed in me.

Aegg is expanding due to a big increase in demand for glass, by preparing to open its first major warehouse facilities near Eye, Suffolk UK later this year.  

We will be showcasing our extended glass food packaging ranges as well as our first UK warehouse facilities (which are due to open later this year) at our E8 Packaging Innovations stand at London Olympia on 11-12 September 2019. 

Aegg has created a new bespoke glass pot for Pots & Co’s new 65g lighter pudding range. The range, which launched in April 2019 is packaged in bespoke fully recyclable clear glass pots with the Pots & Co logo embedded within the base, which accentuates the premium nature of these handmade puddings.
