Nucro Ltd. seem to have been a model railway rolling stock manufacturer distributed by Bradshaw Model Products. The packaging that we've seen had green printing on white labels, wrapped around brown cardboard boxes.

Acro

Nucro's distributor Bradshaw also advertised Acro 4mm scale rolling stock (Meccano Magazine, May 1953, page xiv).

Acro packaging again seems to have been green ink on white paper stickers wrapped around a brown cardboard box, and the Acro packaging lists the company address as being 6, Station Approach, Chipstead, Coulsdon, Surrey, which might conceivably be the same address. If not, it'd still seem likely that Nucro and Acro, both based in Chipstead and distributed by Bradshaw, may be somehow related.
