Brow Packaging was founded by John C.Brow ('J. C. ' as he became known). He came to Belfast in the mid 1930's while working for Lairds of Glasgow (bag and carton manufacturers). He decided to settle in Belfast and John C. Brow Ltd was formed in 1943 serving the Linen Industry with printed pattern paper and special machines were commissioned to manufacture the greaseproof covered cardboard ringed printed jam jar caps, mostly contracted to Keillers of Dundee for their Marmalade jars (hence the name 'Caps-All'). In the early 1950's Mr. Brow obtained several agencies such as Transparent Paper Ltd. (cellulose film manufactures and laminators), Livermore & Knights (labels) and Cross Paperware (paper napkins etc. ).
In 1958 Mr. Brow's eldest son joined the business and started to expand the manufacturing side by introducing machinery to make cellulose film bags. Then in 1964, polythene machines were introduced to print and convert this material. After the first oil crisis in 1974 the company started extruding polythene film. Today Brow Packaging manufactures and converts a range of flexible packaging films and distributes plastic, foil and paper packaging, in addition to catering and hygiene disposables which are described in the following sections.
