Winning formula

Three Formula 1 racing teams - Mercedes GP Petronas F1, Lotus Renault GP and 1Malaysia F1 Team (also known as Lotus Racing) - have ordered a variety of different products from Goplasticboxes.com, including its large rigid pallet boxes and containers from the company's Attached Lid and Euro ranges.

Mercedes GP has been using the plastic containers to ship catering goods and consumables to its racing drivers and team members at all the events they fly to on the F1 circuit.

The team recently ordered the GoBox 1210 BBA pallet box with lids and GoBox 6300 AL attached lid containers in grey and black to match the team's colour scheme.

Phil Cooper, technical buyer for Mercedes GP, said: "We chose plastic containers as they are robust but lightweight for shipping and don't dent easily.

We're very happy with the boxes we ordered. MD Jim Hardisty was very professional and I'd happily recommend Goplasticboxes.com to others in the motor racing industry."
