Mantle Packaging Machinery Ltd is a UK-based manufacturer of food packaging machinery for the food industry. It was established in 1997 by Ken and Christine Mantle, and today the family-run business combines Ken’s 45 years experience in the industry, with Christine’s office management expertise.
“We’re a small manufacturing business, established in 1997, with family at its heart”
Over the years, the family side of the business has grown and expanded. Today, Ken and Christine’s two daughters, Philippa and Laura have joined the business and work alongside each other. Together, they ensure Mantle Packaging Machinery continues to offer a professional, sustainable and customer-focused service.
