At Protective Packaging Ltd, our ability to adapt, respond, and deliver barrier foil packaging under pressure was put to the test like never before during the unprecedented global disruption from early 2020 onward. From the COVID-19 pandemic to the complexities of the Brexit transition, we remained steadfast in our mission to ensure uninterrupted service and uncompromising quality for our customers worldwide.
Thanks to the tireless efforts of our dedicated team, we not only maintained stable business operations, but also responded with agility to shifting customer needs and global supply chain constraints. This achievement is rooted in the values we bring to every order:
- ISO 9001:2015 assured quality
- Responsive, personalised customer service

Responding to Shifting Industry Demands
Even as transport sectors such as aviation and marine faced widespread restrictions, we identified new applications for our aluminium barrier foil and desiccant products—delivering real-world solutions when they were needed most:
- Marine Safety Equipment
Custom flat and 3D barrier foil bags for the long-term protection of refurbished life jackets, immersion suits, and life rafts. - Mothballed Commercial Aircraft
Bespoke barrier foil bags—sealed in situ over aero engines and paired with calculated quantities of desiccant—to prevent corrosion during extended storage.
Adapting to Growing Barrier Foil Packaging Demand
Meanwhile, demand from resilient and fast-growing sectors—including Adhesives & Sealants, Plastics, Pharmaceuticals, Food, and Medical—remained strong. We rose to meet these needs with flexible, innovative packaging formats:
- Branded foil rolls and drum liners for moisture-sensitive adhesives and sealants
- Spouted Octabin liners and vented foil sacks for polymer protection
- Bulk food liners for preserving ingredients such as nuts during transit
- Specialist pouches for safeguarding biological test cultures and immunological assays
- Clear-panel foil pouches to extend the shelf life of intravenous nutrition packs while supporting traceability
