RLBS and Lyan Packaging: A Partnership Driving Sustainable, Custom Packaging Solutions

When RLBS Ltd set out to eliminate fossil fuel plastics from its packaging, they approached Lyan Packaging Supplies Limited for support. Lyan Packaging have a long-standing relationship with RLBS, and the two businesses have worked together for many years.

This case study showcases the collaborative efforts and creative solutions we provided to help RLBS tackle their packaging challenges. Together, we have navigated customized solutions, efficient lead times, and the advantages of stock holding.

RLBS Ltd is the UK’s leading manufacturer and distributor of high-quality beverage dispense equipment for the brewing and soft drinks industries. Specializing in CO2 and mixed gas reducing valves, fonts, cask ale, and cider hand-pulls and taps, RLBS combines market-leading knowledge and technical expertise to deliver high-performance solutions for pubs, restaurants, hotels, and micro-breweries. Operating within the Samuel Hodge Group, they pride themselves on their responsive and reliable service to iconic brewing brands and micro-breweries alike.

RLBS has a bold vision: to be fossil fuel plastic-free in its packaging. We played a pivotal role in this journey. One of the standout moments in our collaboration was the creation of a new cardboard wrap for gas regulators. Through several site visits and detailed consultations, we designed a solution that met both the functional and sustainability needs of RLBS.

We excel at handling smaller projects with flexibility and precision. Thanks to our in-house box maker, we can produce smaller batch quantities and bespoke boxes affordably and promptly. This capability has been essential for RLBS, which often needs custom packaging solutions for various products.

As RLBS continues to grow and take on new products and refurbish equipment, each project presents unique packaging requirements. We have consistently provided the right solutions for these diverse needs. No matter the challenge, RLBS knows they can rely on us to find the perfect packaging answer.

One of the most appreciated services we offer is our stock holding for call-off. This service has been a game-changer for RLBS, helping them manage space, stay organized, and maintain healthy cash flow. With stock holding, RLBS can call off packaging supplies as needed, avoiding the hassle of storing large quantities on-site.

When RLBS's customers ask for bespoke packaging, we are always ready to help. Our willingness to create custom solutions ensures that RLBS can meet their customers' unique needs. This partnership has strengthened RLBS's reputation for reliability and exceptional customer service.

The partnership between RLBS and us at Lyan Packaging Supplies Limited is a testament to how collaboration and innovation can drive sustainability and operational success. Through custom packaging solutions, flexible production, stock holding services, and a commitment to customer satisfaction, we have become an indispensable partner for RLBS. This case study highlights the personal and professional benefits of our collaboration and sets an inspiring example for sustainable packaging practices in the industry.
