Sixty years ago, on March 3rd, 1964, Plantpak Ltd's story began in Congleton, UK, with a vision to revolutionize the horticulture segment. Today, they commemorate their enduring legacy and in this article, Kees Waqué , Desch's Manager Retail and Marketing, backs on six decades of growth and innovation."Everyone of our 6 factories has their own history, but of course it's great today that we celebrate 60 years presence in the UK "
"From our humble beginnings in Congleton to our establishment as Plantpak in Maldon in 1968, our commitment to quality and service has remained steadfast throughout the years. We owe our success to the unwavering support of our customers, partners, and employees, both past and present."
At Desch Plantpak Ltd, we specialize in providing cutting-edge solutions for the horticulture industry, he continues. "Most notably, our range of products includes innovative rPET trays and packs, meticulously designed to meet the evolving needs of our customers while promoting sustainability and environmental responsibility. It's worth noting that the majority of our products are NIR detectable, making them perfect for recycling processes and contributing to a circular economy."
As they mark this 60th anniversary, they reflect on the strides they have made and the challenges they have overcome. "From pioneering new technologies to embracing sustainable practices, our dedication to continuous improvement has been the driving force behind our success."
And being able to produce locally is becoming more important for their customers. "It results in even lower CO2 footprint"
Looking ahead, they are excited about the opportunities that the future holds. "With a rich legacy built on integrity, innovation, and customer satisfaction, we are confident in our ability to lead the way in the horticulture industry for many more years to come."
