Who are Unibox
We are a Manchester manufacturer where design thinking meets engineering precision. For over 30 years we've been creating aluminium systems and lighting solutions used by global brands in retail, hospitality, commercial interiors and much more. What makes us different is how we work. All under one roof, solving complex briefs and turning them into beautifully made, practical realities. We like a challenge, we like each other, and we like seeing an idea go from sketch to showroom. If you're curious, hardworking, creative and enjoy working with people who care about doing things properly, you'll fit right in.
