“Thanks so much to you and your team for pulling out all the stops for us. I have been very impressed by your whole team and I have to say I rarely come across a business that cares quite as much as we do about their product. It is a very nice surprise”.
“We've been working with Alexir to produce our product packaging since MOOPOPS launched in 2018. The creative team is a pleasure to work with, they never fail to come up with clever solutions and always turn things around at record speed. We looked at working with a number of packaging companies in the early days but none came close when it came to quality”.
"We were really pleased with Alexir's knowledge and solution led approach. Ruth was great in supporting us with our short deadlines and the team helped with the design revisions to achieve the best outcomes. We would 100% recommend them and will be working with them on further projects!"
“We have been really happy with the service from Alexir. From start to finish, our questions have been answered promptly, turnaround on artwork has been swift and delivery timelines have been met. We’re extremely pleased with the end result and it meets our brand’s premium look and feel as well as our sustainability goals.”
“The proofs, amendments and final print run were completed in a timely manner with no issues. We were very happy with the carton and our retail partners were too!”
“Our powder pods have been designed to be safer from the ground up, and the packaging plays a big part in this. Laundry capsules can be very attractive to children and have been known to cause injury. It was important to us that the pack would be difficult for a child to open.”
“Thanks to you and the team for all your support getting us launched. Much appreciated!”
“I just want say that the boxes have arrived and OMG! They look amazing, thank you so much to everyone who has been part of the process your end. Can’t wait for the world to see them!”
"After speaking to the team at Alexir, we realised that nothing was going to be too difficult for them to achieve the desired look we required. The finished product was beyond our expectations in all aspects of fit, form, build quality and the final foil inlay finish. We will have several similar projects this year coming out and without hesitation, will certainly use and recommend Alexir for all ours and our clients future projects".
"We had been looking for an alternative solution to our plastic food trays for over 12 months. We got in touch with Adam at Alexir through an industry expert who highly recommended them. They guided us through the process and helped us make the right decision to implement the Halopack across our product range. The design process was easy and efficient and we were kept up to date with progress through the journey. We have had an excellent experience with Alexir and especially Adam (Dean) who was always available throughout the process, with expert knowledge and experience helping the team with any queries or sampling needs. First class experience, and most importantly our customers are extremely happy with the final product! "
"I have to say, my relationship with Tom and Alexir has always been brilliant as has his support for us".
“Thank you both so much for the hard work that you have put in to preparing and researching the Brown Sugar packaging brief for the Rondel. You completely grasped what we are trying to achieve and the new designs are spot on, I feel confident they will appeal to our travel, foodservice and retail clients delivering maximum impact. Really great teamwork across your business”.
"I would like to thank you for your great support on this project. I am amazed by what we’ve been able to achieve in a few months. You’ve all been very helpful during the whole process, thank you very much".
“Alexir are a great partner as they supply us with high quality cartons in really short lead times. The progress in digital print has allowed Pukka to unlock the use of digitally printed cartons with Alexir. This has resulted in sustainability gains as we have reduced the amount of waste cartons, and has allowed us to act on opportunities in new markets.“
“We had a great experience working with Alexir recently on a new sample pack. The packs look awesome, the delivery was super prompt, and Alexir were a pleasure to work with throughout. A big thank you to Ruth and team."
“Feedback on the packaging has been very positive indeed. Furthermore, the Woodland Crunch box has been used in a presentation at the US Embassy to showcase the California Walnuts trade”.
“Ruth and her team have always been proactive and accommodating, and delivery of the finished product has always been well within the 7-10 working day guidelines. I have already returned with more jobs since!”.
"New to the world of own-brand packaging I was looking for expertise and some friendly guidance. Alexir turned my muddled brief into the fun cartons I had imagined...and on a tight deadline. Thanks guys...saved the day!"
"We are very grateful to the Alexir Partnership for their support on our 'Eat the Rainbow' campaign and for enabling us to donate even more funds to NHS staff."
"It was a real pleasure working with Alexir on our packaging project. The Digital Department was a massive help throughout the journey of the project. What also stood out for me working with Alexir is the sampling process, which is really speedy and flexible. It really enabled us to experiment and reach our packaging goals. I'd recommend them to anyone and will surely be using the service again in the near future.”
"Sustainability is everything to us, and Alexir provided the perfect solution for us to preserve our meals and expand nationwide, all in packaging made from over 80% recycled materials. The print quality of our trays is phenomenal, and the whole team was very responsive throughout the process."
"Alexir are a pleasure to work with as they are organised, one step ahead, efficient and clear, as well as communicative on the detail. They are always looking for the best solution for customers which is refreshing."
“Alexir have provided the service and product we were hunting high and low for, enabling us to have the quality finished product, in the volumes, and within the cost we require, being supported with great service along the way.”
"It was a pleasure working with the Alexir Partnership. This was our first venture creating a retail product. The process was challenging as we started from scratch and had to get the right box size, material, the cut-outs and the designs right. We couldn’t have made the end product so beautiful – and functional – without the help and expertise of the Alexir team!"
"We approached Alexir with our design, and they guided us through the process so that we could make an informed decision on the packaging. We were delighted with the result and the level of customer service that we received".
“A big thank you to the team at Alexir for pulling out all the stops to ensure that our small gift boxes were received in our stores in time for the Easter weekend. Due to higher than expected sales we were short of this line, and stock was due to dock too late to be delivered. Alexir took the task on board and promptly came up with a solution. All stores received their stock in time for Easter trading. Fantastic service!”
"Alexir is one of the easiest companies to work with and, to be totally honest, has relieved a lot of pressure from our own workload in this aspect. Thank you to the team at Alexir for your ongoing support and excellent service level."
“The Simply Cook Meal Kit was a complex project. The project and consequent award (European Carton Excellence Award 2018) was the direct result of a true collaboration between ourselves, We are Path (creative partners) and the Alexir Partnership. The Alexir Partnership delivered all aspects of the packaging supply chain from carton manufacturing through to co-packing.”
"We loved working with the Alexir team who are skilled and creative in finding solutions for the most important part of our product, the packaging. Great team to work with as they have great ethics, they listened and worked tirelessly to offer advice and recommendations."
"Big thank you for always keeping us updated as your service has been excellent."
“Alexir have been a huge help with a major project to produce batch-specific cartons using their modern Digital print suite. As pharmaceutical customers we have very exacting standards on quality, control of documentation, segregation & security. The team at Alexir have responded extremely well to all challenges we have posed them, especially with respect to pre-press requirements, and have supported us amply with quick turnaround, advantageous leadtimes and competitive costs."
The Alexir Partnership operates between two state of the art production facilities, conveniently located within the south of England.
Our continued investments enable us to remain one of the most technologically advanced packaging companies within the UK.
