Cumberland Packaging selects Amtech Software to support UK operations

Amtech Software, a provider of AI-powered ERP, MES and CRM solutions for the label and packaging industries, has announced that Cumberland Packaging Ltd has selected Amtech’s Encore ERP platform to manage and streamline its operations. The partnership marks a milestone for Amtech as it continues to expand its presence in the UK packaging market, building on an already strong base of label plant customers in the region.

Headquartered in Southend-on-Sea, Cumberland Packaging is one of the top five independent corrugated sheet plants in the UK. With over four decades of manufacturing expertise, the company produces a wide range of corrugated and solid board packaging, converted polystyrene, foam, and ancillary packaging materials, serving customers across extensive areas of the UK.

By implementing Encore ERP, Amtech says Cumberland Packaging will gain end-to-end visibility across its production, inventory, and delivery operations, enabling the company to continue delivering on its promise of getting customer orders there “on time, every time.”

“We evaluated a number of solutions before choosing Encore,” comments John Watson, owner and managing director, Cumberland Packaging. “Amtech’s deep understanding of the packaging industry, combined with Encore’s purpose-built functionality, gave us confidence that this was the right platform to support our growth. We’re excited to modernise how we run the business and give our team the tools they need to serve our customers even better.”

“Cumberland Packaging is exactly the kind of forward-thinking, high-quality manufacturer we love partnering with,” says Chuck Schneider, CEO of Amtech Software. “This partnership is particularly meaningful for Amtech. It opens the door to the UKI packaging market where we already have a strong foothold in labels. We look forward to supporting Cumberland Packaging as they continue to grow and to building on this momentum across the region.”
