The Sherwood Group Highly Commended at the UK Packaging Awards 2024

The Sherwood Group is proud to announce that we have been ‘Highly Commended‘ at the UK Packaging Awards 2024, held on 10th October at the prestigious Grosvenor House on Park Lane, in the heart of London.

This recognition highlights our dedication to delivering sustainable and socially responsible packaging solutions in collaboration with leading brands. Two of our innovative projects, the Flowers Hydration Pot and the Lil-lets Dispenser, were shortlisted for these prestigious awards, further reinforcing our position as industry leaders in eco-friendly packaging.

Flowers Hydration Pot – Highly Commended for ‘Cartonboard Pack of the Year’

Flowers Hydration Pot, developed with Bunches, a leading online flower shop, received Highly Commended in the competitive ‘Cartonboard Pack of the Year’ category. This innovative solution integrates The Sherwood Group’s Puracoat® sustainable barrier coating, ensuring it is fully recyclable and biodegradable in line with BS EN 13432 standards.

Previously recognised with an award at the Environmental Packaging Awards, the Hydration Pot underscores our commitment to creating packaging that is both functional and environmentally responsible.

Lil-lets Dispenser – Highly Commended for ‘Reusable Pack of the Year’

Lil-lets Dispenser, a refillable packaging solution developed in close collaboration with Lil-lets, was also Highly Commended in the ‘Reusable Pack of the Year’ category.

The Lil-lets dispenser is more than just a packaging solution; it represents a significant step forward in workplace sustainability. By offering a convenient and reusable dispenser, Lil-Lets not only reduces waste but also ensures that employees have easy access to essential products, helping to diminish the stigma and inconvenience associated with menstruation in the workplace.

Martin King, Operations Director at The Sherwood Group, attended the ceremony in London and commented:

Attending the UK Packaging Awards was a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the innovation and hard work of our team. Receiving Highly Commended for two projects highlights our dedication to delivering sustainable and creative packaging solutions. It’s been a privilege to collaborate with visionary brands like Bunches and Lil-lets, and this recognition motivates us to continue raising the bar for excellence in our industry.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to our customers, Bunches and Lil-lets, for their partnership and shared vision for sustainability. Together, we are leading the way in developing solutions that benefit both people and the planet.
