Our History
S and B EPS Ltd [formerly Smith & Blakey Packaging] was formed in 1978 as a converter of expanded polystyrene [EPS] based in Newcastle upon Tyne, cutting various shapes for packaging to a wide selection of end users.
Due to continued growth, a decision was taken in 1997 to make the transition to become a manufacturer of EPS to enable the company to maintain its growth and offer its services to a wider customer base. The process of installing the necessary equipment began in January 1998 and was completed on 16 April with the first blocks being produced.
2002 heralded the completion of our first phase of expansion and the success achieved during this period enabled us to start the implementation of the second stage of the company’s planned expansion that was completed in 2004. We continue to maintain S and B EPS as one of the UK’s major EPS manufacturers offering innovative products.
In 2003 we gained accreditation to become an ISO 9001/2000 registered company whilst at the same time being able to issue a declaration of conformity to BSEN 13163 entitling us to CE mark our products. In 2004 S and B EPS gained accreditation to supply a new high thermal performance expandable polystyrene to BSEN 13163 called Lambdatherm. In 2008 we obtained certification to CE mark civil engineering products to BSEN 14933:2007 standard.
