We are a second generation  Irish family business founded by David Gardiner in  1971 and based in Blessington Co. Wicklow.

Our diversified product portfolio include:

  • Commercial refrigeration and catering equipment
  • Pharmacy refrigeration, balances and temperature monitoring
  • Calibration and temperature mapping services
  • Medical mask manufacturing
  • Blessington Business Park – owned and managed

The business started in the sector of commercial refrigeration and diversified into medical refrigeration, temperature monitoring and calibrations. As importer we have been looking for ways to  be a manufacturer as we wanted to have complete control over our production and produce superior quality products in Ireland. This opportunity arose when we entered into the manufacturing of medical facemasks during the Covid pandemic. It presented many challenges from starting up a new production all the way through to launching the product to market which eventually led us to paper bags production and flexo-graphic printing . As a manufacturer we work with many local Irish suppliers in the production of paper bag which means so much more is being reinvested back into the local  economy.

We are dedicated to exceeding our customers expectation from the initial consultation to after-sales support.  We strive to provide personalized service and tailored solutions that address your unique requirements and our team of knowledgeable professionals is always on hand to offer expert advice and guidance. We also have a strong focus on the environment and this sustainability means a lot to us and as a manufacturer of paper bags we can truly say we are a sustainable as there is nothing more recyclable than paper.
