Who are Gilcrest Manufacturing
Gilcrest Manufacturing is a leading designer and manufacturer of high-performance panel solutions. With a strong reputation in the cleanroom and controlled environments industry, Gilcrest is driven by a set of core values: Principles, Collaboration, Accountability, Sustainability, and Flexibility. These values underpin every partnership, project, and product they deliver.
So how did Springpack collaborate with Gilcrest to design and deliver a branded pallet wrap that not only protects products in transit but also reinforces brand identity across every shipment?
The Challenge:
Gilcrest had been using a plain pallet wrap that carried the Puracore logo. While Puracore represents Gilcrest’s most advanced panel range, Gilcrest wanted to include visibility for all of their brands, whilst under the main brand of Gilcrest.
Gilcrest recognised the need for a solution that would:
- Raise awareness of the Gilcrest name itself.
- Highlight the full range of brands: Puracore, Purashield, Puracoustic, and Customised by Gilcrest.
- Improve presentation and consistency across packaging.
- Deliver the same protective qualities as the existing wrap while strengthening the recipient’s opinion of Gilcrest.
The challenge was clear: create a branded pallet wrap that delivered on functionality while elevating brand recognition throughout the supply chain.
Why choose Springpack?
Springpack had been supplying packaging to Gilcrest for some time, so when the time came to change the wrap, Springpack were Gilcrest’s natural choice.
“Springpack are an existing partner with a proactive, solutions-focused approach. They understood our packaging journey and were keen to collaborate from the outset, which made them the natural choice.” – Jason Paginton, Purchasing Lead Buyer, Gilcrest.
The Process: From Concept to Delivery
The project was characterised by a genuine spirit of collaboration. Springpack worked hand-in-hand with Gilcrest, keeping communication open at every stage.
Designing any type of packaging with Springpack can be broken down into six key steps:
Concept:
One of the most important steps always comes first – the concept. This is the stage where we consider the application of the product, the customer’s preferences, the way the product will be used and how the product should look.
Content:
The aesthetics of the packaging are as important as the performance – Springpack and Gilcrest worked together to match the Pantone colours for their wrap.
Samples:
Plain samples of the wrap were tested by Gilcrest to ensure they are happy with the specification and quality of the wrap.
Approval:
After testing the wrap, Gilcrest confirmed that they were happy with the quality and performance of the new wrap. Their design was sent for print.
Delivery:
In 8 weeks, the new wrap was delivered & used by Gilcrest.
Feedback:
A key step in the process is the feedback from Gilcrest. Feedback allows us to make sure our customers are happy with their products, as well as gives the opportunity to change anything for the next order – Gilcrest confirmed that they are happy with their new wrap.
The Outcome & Benefits
Now they have switched to the new wrap, Gilcrest anticipate to see:
- Stronger brand awareness across all of their product ranges
- Improved presentation, every pallet that leaves Gilcrest will look uniform and aesthetically pleasing
- Added protection during transport, ensuring products arrive in perfect condition.
Every wrapped pallet is now an ambassador for the Gilcrest brand, reinforcing who they are and what they stand for.
Looking Ahead
The branded pallet wrap is just one of several successful collaborations between Gilcrest and Springpack. Gilcrest has also benefited from branded boxes and bespoke packaging tape designed by Springpack, and the company is enthusiastic about continuing to explore new opportunities together.
When asked if they would work with Springpack again on future branded products, Gilcrest’s answer was unequivocal:
“Absolutely. Beyond the film, Springpack have already supported us with Gilcrest branded boxes and bespoke packaging tape, and we are very happy to explore future projects together.”
Conclusion
Through a strong partnership built on shared values of collaboration and flexibility, Springpack and Gilcrest worked to achieve more than just a packaging update. The new branded pallet wrap has transformed every shipment into a powerful branding opportunity, strengthening visibility, professionalism, and customer recognition.
