A huge thank you to everyone who donated!

We've been recently collecting pre-loved clothing for The Clothing Bank and have been blown away by the generosity shown over the past few weeks.

Your donations of pre-loved clothing, brand-new essentials, and festive bits for children and young adults will make a real difference.

Every single contribution helps bring comfort and confidence to families who need a little extra support this season.

A special shoutout to Simon for expertly wrapping our collection boxes and to Greyhound Box for kindly supplying them free of charge. Teamwork at its best!

Even though we’ve grown into an international business, we’ve never forgotten our roots.

We’re proud to do our bit for local causes like Trinity Mission, which provides hot meals, clothing, and support to people who need it in Castleford. Our amazing team organised a number of fun activities over Christmas to collect almost £400 to benefit this great cause – and before making our donation, we rounded up that number to a total of £500!

Thanks to the team for getting involved with our local community – if you’d like to know more (including how you can support Trinity Mission yourself), click here https://parksideflex.pulse.ly/olun4sdwx9

We asked AI if consumers in 2024 would make the switch to flexible packaging alternatives - this is what it said.

"Yes, it's likely that consumers will make the switch to flexible packaging in 2024. Trends indicate a growing preference for sustainably designed and convenient options, and flexible packaging often meets those needs. Factors like sustainability, portability, and reduced waste are increasingly influencing consumer choices, making flexible packaging an attractive alternative."

At Parkside we have launched a range of Recoflex™ papers that offer durability, barrier performance, and excellent heat sealability, changing the game for paper-based flexible packaging in a plethora of market applications.
