SAICA Pack, the corrugated packaging division of The Saica Group, has officially opened a new warehouse in Hartlepool.
The facility will expand Saica Pack’s operations whilst also sustainably developing various packing solutions to meet the growing service demands of its varied client base nationwide.
Designed to support both current operations and future growth, the new facility significantly enhances Saica’s operational capacity – accommodating up to 9,000 pallets, more than double the average capacity of comparable warehouses in the region which typically house 4,250.
This strengthens the site’s role as a strategic hub for Saica Pack, enabling increased flexibility and efficiency in handling both sheet and converted corrugated products.
The warehouse has also delivered on its sustainability commitments through the integration of renewable energy solutions. The facility incorporates solar panels capable of generating up to 10% of the plant’s total energy requirements, helping to reduce the carbon footprint of operations.
The site also incorporates dedicated space for the logistics team, alongside a designated rest area for drivers.
Riccardo Tonelli, regional director, Saica Pack Northeast, said, “We’re delighted to see our Hartlepool facility now fully operational, delivered on time and within budget through strong collaboration across our teams and partners.”
