Our History
Original manufacturing facility started in Fleet St Liverpool 1. Earliest contracts to make pepper
tin containers for the Government during the Crimean War 1850’s.
In 1942 Edward Billington & Son bought the company for a grand sum of £700 and this signalled
the start of Central Tin at the old Wilbraham St site. Liverpool City Centre
David Hunt, then the Managing Director, initiated an MBO when Billington Group looked to divest
its non-core manufacturing facilities.
By summer of 2003 new partners restructured the company
In 2006 £600,000 was committed to a new Aerosol Can Line. A further £500,000 has gone into
upgrading testing equipment on this line in 2015-07-02
