Looking Forward to 2025: A Year of Continued Growth and Innovation at Sheard Packaging

As we reflect on an incredible 2024, Sheard Packaging is excited to continue our journey of innovation and sustainability in 2025. The year ahead promises to be filled with new opportunities, strengthened partnerships, and ongoing investments that will help us further elevate our offerings. Here’s a look at what we have planned for the future:

Sustaining Our Commitment to B Corp Certification

One of our proudest achievements in 2024 was earning our B Corp certification, a significant milestone that reflects our commitment to balancing profit with purpose. In 2025, we remain deeply committed to the B Corp ethos—championing high environmental and social standards across our business operations. This certification not only holds us accountable but also empowers us to continue driving positive change in the packaging industry. As we grow, we will continue to innovate with sustainability at the forefront, working closely with our clients to create packaging solutions that benefit both their business and the planet.

Driving Value Optimisation for Sustainable Solutions

At Sheard, we believe that true value comes from not only cost efficiency but also environmental responsibility. Our Value Optimisation Programme has been key to helping our partners achieve these goals. In 2025, we will expand our efforts to help clients reduce waste, optimize material use, and improve recyclability, all while enhancing packaging performance. Whether it’s improving pallet efficiency, reducing carbon footprints, or maximizing sustainability, our value optimization solutions are designed to improve operational efficiency and reduce costs for our customers.

Taking Innovation on the Road with the Mobile Innovation Centre (MiC)

One of the most exciting developments this year is the continued success of our Mobile Innovation Centre (MiC). In 2025, we will be taking the MiC on the road, bringing our expertise and innovative packaging solutions directly to our clients’ doorsteps. The MiC is designed to offer live demonstrations, rapid prototyping, and personalized consultations, allowing businesses to experience firsthand how Sheard’s packaging solutions can streamline operations and enhance their product offerings. We look forward to engaging with new and existing customers, exploring innovative ways to solve their packaging challenges, and building even stronger relationships.

Continued Investment in Our People and Infrastructure

We are also committed to ongoing investments in our team and infrastructure. As part of our long-term vision, we’re continuing to enhance our office spaces to foster a more collaborative and creative work environment. These improvements will ensure that Sheard remains a vibrant place to work and a dynamic partner to our clients. Additionally, we’ll continue to invest in workforce development with training programs that enhance the expertise and skills of our team, ensuring that we are always ready to meet the evolving needs of the packaging industry.

We will continue to push boundaries, expand our capabilities, and work alongside our clients to shape the future of packaging. With our B Corp values, continued investments, and cutting-edge solutions, we’re ready for another exciting year of growth and collaboration.
