Our journey
Whitefurze was founded in 1978 by Managing Director Philip Lanni at the age of just 17, starting with a small range of plastic consumer products. Over time, it has evolved into a successful and dynamic business with a broad product offering across food storage, gardening, pet, general storage and housewares. This growth has been driven by a consistent focus on designing and manufacturing high-quality, competitively priced products, supported by a strong commitment to first-class customer service.
The recent acquisition by RDCP marks an exciting new chapter in the company’s journey. With RDCP’s long-term backing and investment approach, Whitefurze is well positioned to build on its strong foundations, accelerate innovation, and continue its growth both in the UK and internationally.
Our culture
Our culture is built on long-standing relationships, reliability and a strong commitment to quality and service. This has driven high levels of repeat business from a loyal customer base, including both national retailers and independent SMEs, who value our consistency and product innovation.
Sustainability is central to how we operate. All products are 100% recyclable, and we are committed to minimising manufacturing waste as we progress towards a closed-loop production model.
At its core, our culture is focused on delivering high-quality, competitively priced products with first-class service, while building a more sustainable future.
