Nubox Limited Company History

Nubox was formed in 2001 by Jig Battu and John Northern who between them brought a wealth of knowledge and expertise in the manufacture of rigid presentation boxes and high quality packaging solutions. They saw the need in the market for a company providing a service for customers who wanted bespoke designs and a manufacturing facility that could meet their individual needs.

The company began with the 2 Directors and 3 employees in a 10,000 square foot factory unit on the outskirts of Leicester City Centre, the location being ideally located to serve a small number of customers based in the Leicestershire area. Within a few years Nubox’s reputation for high quality, reliability and flexible service brought additional opportunities and new customers, the company achieved ISO 9001 status in January 2008 and has maintained this accreditation successfully each year. Today the company employs 18 staff and operates from the original site, however it has taken over adjacent properties and now occupies approximately 30,000 square feet of factory, warehouse and office accommodation.

Over the past 5 years the company has seen substantial growth in sales and its customer base. From its beginnings in 2001 with approximately 5 customers in the Leicester area, the Nubox now has over 400 regular customers and supplies its products to companies across the UK. Today much of the packaging produced by Nubox is used by many well known brands/designers and sold across the world.

To ensure this growth is matched by the staff expertise and manufacturing facilities the company has invested significantly in new equipment and upgrading existing equipment. Nubox now has 2 Emmeci AP4000 and a Young Shin APD (the only one of its kind in the UK) which have been purchased within the last 3 years. These together with a range of other board and paper processing equipment the company has on site at its Leicester base, allows our highly skilled staff to offer exceptional quality and service at competitive prices with the flexibility to meet the demands of customers who require quantities ranging from 10 to 100,000 boxes.

The last 16 years has seen the Nubox develop from humble beginnings to become a well known and well respected manufacturer of rigid presentation boxes and packaging.
