Is SLAPSTA Legit? How to Verify Us in Five Minutes
Is SLAPSTA legit? Yes — here's how to verify our company registration, where our independent reviews live, what we sell (empty packaging only), and how we handle it when things...
Short answer: yes. SLAPSTA LTD is a UK-registered company (Company No. 12351174), VAT-registered since 2018, designing and producing from Unit 3, Steel Fabs Industrial Estate, Victoria Crescent, Burton upon Trent, DE14 2QD. We supply empty packaging, print and brand design to trade clients — and nothing else.
Why people ask
It's a fair question, and we'd rather answer it head-on than pretend it isn't typed into Google. We serve a niche industry, we're not a household name, and when you search our name you'll find third-party “site checker” pages alongside our reviews. For what it's worth, those independent checkers rate slapsta.com as legitimate and low-risk — but you shouldn't have to take an algorithm's word for it, or ours. Here's how to verify us properly.

Start small. No one's asking for blind trust. Order a blank stock line or a small sticker run first, see how we handle it, then scale.
What we actually sell (and what we don't)
SLAPSTA designs and supplies empty packaging: custom-printed mylar bags, glass jars, tubes, tins, labels and stickers, plus brand design, print and fulfilment — everything a retail-ready brand needs on one invoice. We do not sell, supply or advise on consumable products of any kind. If that distinction matters to you (it matters a lot to us), the full breakdown is on our Packaging Only page.
The honest bit about our reviews
Scroll our Trustpilot and you'll find years of five-star feedback on design quality, print standards and turnaround — and you'll also find a handful of reviews from periods where our communication slipped. We're not going to pretend otherwise; those customers were right to say so. What runs today is simple: real people answer your messages, timelines that move get communicated before you have to chase, and if a print or product isn't right through our error, we reprint or refund without a fight. Every review gets a reply, and critical ones get fixed in the open. You can see client feedback collected in one place on our reviews page.
Still unsure?
Good — healthy scepticism is exactly what we'd recommend before trusting any supplier with your brand. Check the register, read the reviews, then send us a small job and judge us on it.
