Our story

TRM’s origins lie in a simple newspaper ad. Having noticed a box-making company listed for sale in the Financial Times, Trevor Maund bought the company from administrators and achieved the following by 2009:

  • Doubling the yearly turnover
  • Grew the number of employees from 130 to 230.

With the backing of the North West Development Agency and HSBC to help fund the redevelopment, the business was able to upgrade the plant and grow to the £38m turnover it has today. The company continues to invest in new equipment and talent, having recently purchased a multi-million pound Göpfert Impression printing press which allows TRM to offer higher quality printing services. TRM now finds itself among the lead independent corrugated packaging manufacturers in the UK, with an expertise in innovative secondary retail ready packaging, shelf ready packaging and high quality post print.
