Roberts, now a third generation family owned business (founded in 1958 by William Edward Roberts and his son Alan) continues to be flexible and forward thinking in supporting our customer base. This has seen us grow into one of the largest independent manufacturers in the UK, producing our own corrugated board and converting into an array of packaging solutions.

the environment
Statement
W. E. Roberts is fully committed to a programme
of continuous improvement on the impact of all environmental issues that are a result of the Company’s business.
Low Energy
We have embarked on a twelve months project to replace existing boilers with new low energy consumption boilers. They will not only create greater energy efficiency but also reduce production waste and environmental pollution.
Valpac
As a member of VALPAC since 2000, we along with 5000 other companies use their services to ensure compliance to packaging waste regulations. 100% of our waste material generated from the production facility is collected and recycled. The company has an additional policy to ensure that all office waste is baled and recycled.
Recyclable
Any pure Kraft paper that has to be used to comply with EEC regulations regarding food packaging is produced from managed forests and is totally recyclable.
Papers
W. E. Roberts has always encouraged our customer base to use recycled papers whenever possible. All white and mottled papers used are test-based products and our sales team are trained to advise customers that a Kraft alternative or substitute that is fully recycled, and further recyclable, can be supplied.

Carbon Footprint
