About Us
Our Story
Founded in 1994 by Colin Fletcher, Fletcher European Containers has grown from a small local business into a leading British manufacturer of rotationally moulded plastic products. Known for our rotoX range, we specialise in hygienic, durable, food-contact compliant solutions designed for the demanding 24/7 world of commercial food production.
Still family-owned, Colin remains actively involved as Managing Director.
Growth & Innovation
Over the years, we’ve expanded our capabilities with acquisitions, factory extensions, and new moulding equipment. Our in-house recycling programme ensures all plastic waste is reused, and in 2017 we achieved ISO9001:2015 accreditation for quality and continuous improvement.
Today, we combine large-scale manufacturing with the agility to design and develop new products for our customers.
Who We Work With
Our products are trusted across the UK food industry — from bakeries, butchers, and dairies to confectionery makers, fish processors, ready meal producers, and fresh produce suppliers.
Beyond food, we serve healthcare, education, leisure, logistics, and manufacturing sectors, offering everything from storage containers and trucks to plastic lockers and hygiene equipment.
What Sets Us Apart
Many of our products are made in-house, giving us complete control over quality, value, and lead times. We also partner with leading European brands such as Schoeller Allibert and Dolav to offer an unmatched range from stock. The rotoX name is our guarantee — a mark of products built to perform in professional environments, backed by over 25 years of industry expertise.
