Our Story
Plastic Packaging experts: Lovell Industries has, since its establishment in 1973, manufactured moulds and dies for various industries.
In the 1980s the focus on mould making naturally moved more into the Blister Packaging Industry.
Lovell Industries specialises solely in the production of top quality food packaging, clear plastic blister packaging, food skillets, punnets, clamshell packaging, clear boxes, tubes, transportation and shrink wrapping trays, box inserts, and various other thermoformed plastic related items.
The Lovell Group of Companies, being rurally based, plays a vital role in the local community from which it operates. Over 300 employees from this rural area are employed in the various facilities of the Lovell Group. This has had a visible impact on the wellbeing and general upliftment of the local community. Lovell Industries is situated within a 60km radius of the hub of commercial Gauteng – all local transport logistics are handled on a daily basis with in-house delivery vehicles. Transportation to the rest of the country is covered by our logistics partners.
