Supporting Packaging Businesses to Improve Performance & Win More Work

Many packaging businesses pursue ISO certification because customers increasingly require suppliers to demonstrate effective management systems as part of their supplier approval processes.

We regularly support packaging organisations looking to:

  • Achieve ISO certification

  • Improve product quality consistency

  • Strengthen production controls

  • Reduce waste and rework

  • Improve Health & Safety performance

  • Strengthen environmental management

  • Meet customer compliance requirements

  • Improve operational efficiency

  • Support sustainability objectives

  • Drive continual improvement

Our approach focuses on creating practical systems that support production activities rather than generating unnecessary paperwork.

Rob Westwood, ISO consultant and founder of AlineX, providing expert support for ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001 certification

Hi, I'm Rob, founder of AlineX.

I help organisations across the UK achieve and maintain ISO certification through practical consultancy, auditing and management system support. With more than 10 years of experience spanning manufacturing, environmental leadership, quality management and third-party certification auditing, I bring both operational and auditing experience to every project.

Having worked as a Certification Auditor, I've seen hundreds of management systems and understand what separates effective systems from those that simply exist to pass an audit. My approach focuses on building systems that are practical, proportionate and capable of delivering genuine business benefits.

Whether you're pursuing ISO 9001, ISO 14001 or ISO 45001 certification, my aim is to help you create a management system that supports continual improvement, strengthens compliance and adds value to your organisation long after certification has been achieved.

For more information about AlineX, my experience and how I can support your organisation, visit the About page.
