Contact Packaging

Established in 1980, Contact Packaging has built an outstanding reputation as the UK's largest importer of self-adhesive tapes. Our family-run business combines decades of industry expertise with a 600,000 stock holding at our Preston headquarters, enabling us to deliver premium quality products at competitive prices. We specialise in supplying end users and trade accounts with a comprehensive range of packaging solutions including adhesive tapes, stretch films, and machinery from leading global manufacturers. Our in-house graphics department provides free design consultation and full production control for printed adhesive tapes, ensuring photographic quality reproduction across paper and non-adhesive barrier tapes. We maintain a comprehensive inventory of specialist tapes for diverse applications while continuously developing cost-effective, environmentally friendly alternatives.

Our technical team offers expert installation and maintenance services for packaging machinery including stretch wrapping systems, case sealers, and strapping equipment. We guarantee all European-produced machine stretch film rolls and pallets while offering high-performance low-micron alternatives that maintain quality at reduced costs. Our trade sales division provides bulk order discounts for resellers and high-volume purchasers. We actively promote sustainability through our recycled packaging range while maintaining traditional protective products like bubble wrap and polyethylene foam.
