John Hargreaves is the UK's longest established and one of the most highly respected independent manufacturers of corrugated board, corrugated sheet and corrugated rolls for box makers and the packaging industry. We have been recycling since 1874 and manufacture all our fully recyclable corrugated packaging in our own mill, which is located on the outskirts of Manchester, England, we offer very fast turnaround times and can deliver to meet your deadlines using our own satellite tracked transport fleet.

The John Hargreaves story goes back before the Industrial Revolution when the family operated a sugar bag mill.  Using only water power they manufactured their paper from recycled straw, discarded rope and waste paper etc.  The foundation for the future had been laid.

Today the Hargreaves family manufacture their corrugated products in the same mill they built in 1874.  The products may be designed for today, but the company’s ethics of service, quality and value are built firmly on tradition.
