Our Competitive Edge
As part of one of the Largest Packaging Groups in the UK we have access to a worldwide supplier database combining the most competitive sources with those who offer a very short delivery turnaround. We have proved we are buying packaging materials at keener prices than are available to other packaging businesses in the UK but we also keep fast-turnaround suppliers available to call on at a moment’s notice.
So by combining these two essential factors we can offer you a competitive price which we KNOW we can sustain. We have a capable team ready to design a packaging solution that will inspire you with the confidence you need to win in the world of eCommerce. You’ll have a solution that you know will transport your items safely, be fast to pack, and inspire your customers to share their new purchase with their friends on social media.
Sourcing & Supply Excellence
As part of the Bluewater Packaging Group we have access to a wide range of suppliers throughout the UK, Europe, Middle East, Far East and America. By combining short lead-time UK sources with overseas suppliers, we ensure we are competitive but are not held to only buying from the most competitive source which can experience lead-time fluctuations.
Every product we sell has at least one if not five backup sources of equivalent or better quality giving you the peace of mind that you will never be caught short of packaging materials. Each supplier of our Bluewater branded products have to pass the BondMark™ quality assurance program guaranteeing our products are manufactured and supplied to a high standard.
Our Family Team
Our tight knit family-run team is our secret weapon, with directors and managers all invested in the welfare of our customers and the continuity and profitability of the business, we know we’ll be delivering packaging for many years to come. Our company is built around a family that works together to combine experience and knowledge with energy and enthusiasm to deliver a fantastic service to our customers.

Profitability &
Continuity
We’ve been delivering packaging for over 25 years and our record of consistent profitability is an illustration of our continuity. We have experienced consistent and steady growth, expanding our warehouse needs to multiple sites to ensure greater resilience rather than putting everything under one big roof.
Our History
Datec Packaging was started back in 1999 from a home office and a large garage. From those humble roots we’ve grown steadily over the years with focus on providing an excellent service to our loyal customer base.
More growth meant we became incorporated in 2012 and Datec Packaging Limited was born.
