Thomas Hardy is a unique, family owned, service company dedicated to bottling and packaging. The company has two production facilities in the North West that package beer, cider, FABs, RTDs, soft drinks, juice drinks and tonic water in glass and PET bottles. Thomas Hardy is able to focus completely on customers’ requirements as we have no brands of our own. As a bespoke production company, we pride ourselves on service, quality and competitive pricing.
History:
Thomas Hardy Burtonwood was launched by Peter Ward on the site of the former Burtonwood Brewery, and now has twelve main customers on contract, ranging from international breweries to market-leading soft drink companies.
It is a proud family business on a site that is steeped in history - Burtonwood Brewery dates back to 1865.
The company sold its brewery to Molson Coors in 2015; it now has a unique business model where it focuses on bottling, and supports other firms rather than being a main competitor. Chris Ward took over the reins from his late father, and his team now specialise in bottling smaller, niche products or new drinks that are in product development, including their own small range of traditional and craft beers.
