Why GWP Protective?

GWP Protective is not only amongst the largest foam converters in the UK but is also a leading manufacturer of custom-built flight cases. Besides this, your business can also source the most comprehensive range of branded protective cases available from a single UK supplier.

As such, you can benefit from a fully integrated design service, with your chosen cases and bespoke foam inserts providing a precise fit and protection that eliminates damage to your vital tools, products and equipment.

You can also request genuinely impartial advice on the best solution for your particular application and free, no obligation quotes on any project or requirement. Get in touch to see how your business could benefit.

When was GWP Protective formed?

GWP Protective started as Eastman Packaging in the early 1990s before becoming part of the GWP Group in 2006. The business was rebranded to GWP Protective in 2009.

How does GWP eliminate product damage?

Damage to expensive or critical items can result in significant problems. But your products can benefit from having a foam insert designed to their exact size and shape. But unlike other foam converters, GWP Protective takes a scientific approach, with software accurately calculating the ideal material grade and thickness to protect your items.

How else can GWP Protective help my business?

Your business can see tangible benefits from working with our experienced designers and engineers. You can also take advantage of a range of services to make your life easier and reduce costs. These include a managed inventory, mobile design service (so you do not have to release items for the design process), free unbiased advice, and no obligation quotes on any job, large or small.

Can I buy just my case or foam from GWP Protective?

GWP are more than happy to supply you with foam for existing cases or empty cases for any project you are working on. However, a common issue when specifying cases and foam from different sources is that not only is the cost typically higher, but the fit and compatibility between the product, foam and exterior case are less than perfect. With a well-equipped, modern conversion facility, skilled production team and experienced designers, GWP can reduce your costs by being a genuine single-source case and foam supplier.

I need a specific protective case – can GWP help?

Being an independent supplier means that your business can source the most comprehensive range of branded protective cases from a single supplier in the UK. GWP is an official distributor for Peli, SKB, Hardigg, Zarges, Nanuk and many others. Moreover, we can offer truly impartial advice on the best option for your specific requirements.

What foam packaging products can GWP supply?

GWP are one of the largest foam converters in the UK. As such, your business can source a huge range of foam inserts, end caps and other forms of foam packaging that are cost-effective and precisely tailored to your requirements and application.

Can GWP help with presentation as well as protection?

First impressions – either in sales presentations or retail – are crucial. This is why you can source a wide range of stock or bespoke sample cases that wow potential customers in sales pitches and protect your samples.
