Nexus Packaging announced the next phase of development at the stateof-the-art factory in Glasgow. The 57.000 sq. ft. facility, completed in 2024, is home to nine all-electric Magie blow moulding machines. These are supported by the very latest compressors, chillers, blending systems and solar panels, forming one of Europe's most efficient and technologically advanced blow moulding operations. The company is now expanding further with an additional 20,000 sq. ft. of storage space and the installation of four new machines. These will focus on custom products, increasing the speed, flexibility, and ability to meet bespoke client needs.
This expansion reinforces the ongoing commitment to developing the next generation of UK blow moulders. Alongside the latest technology, Nexus Packaging is building a team that combines the energy of young technicians and engineers with the wisdom of seasoned moulders, many of whom have returned from the original 1990s facility to help shape this new chapter.
Chris Wagner, Director - Nexus Packaging: "Over the last 25 years, a lack of investment in people and machinery has shifted much industrial blow moulding production overseas. At Nexus, we're working hard to reverse that trend to bringjobs, innovation and pride back to British manufacturing."
