Here at Stephens Industries, we are keen to demonstrate our design capabilities by offering the ‘build your own bag’ service.
We will work with you to design and create your very own bespoke packaging to fit the specific requirements of the job at hand. Whether you need custom dunnage bags to stabilise cargo reducing the risk of damage during transportation or complex stillage solutions, we will work closely with you to produce a fully-customised solution.
Overview
We can adapt our services to meet your unique requirements, from design and specification, to development, prototyping and manufacturing.
With a full-service provision across two sites in the UK and overseas partners, we can work flexibly with you on projects ranging from small top-up or replacement orders, to a turnkey solution to your packaging needs.
Design
Our highly-skilled design team can take your product and specification and turn it into an innovative reusable packaging solution. Utilising CAD software, we can create concepts, illustrations and detailed drawings for manufacture.
All our designs are tailored to help you achieve the greatest benefit from your packaging, including optimised pack density and parts protection.
Material Specification
We can also specify suitable materials for the parts you are transporting, from microfibres for sensitive A-surface parts, foams for added protection of sharper edges, to specialist antistatic materials for electrical parts.
Manufacturing Process
Development and Prototyping
Once you are happy with the design, we can quickly provide prototypes from our UK factory, either as a one-off or in short runs for trials. Packaging can be developed if required or approved for larger runs.
Manufacture
Our two manufacturing sites in Wigan and Corsham have capabilities crossing cutting, sewing and welding. This means we can fully produce almost any textile packaging solution you require in the UK. The benefit of this is shorter turnaround times and greater flexibility in production.
Where time is less critical and cost a greater factor, we have several overseas partners that can further increase our production capacity. For very large runs, a mix of UK and overseas production can sometimes provide the best and most cost effective solution.
