Why the UK Producer Is Right For Huyton with Roby
Custom Pack Pack Studio is part of KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, a business that has been making print and packaging in Scotland since 1997.
When you ask about a final finish, a substance or a deadline, you are speaking to someone who deals with the press every day. They don’t need to send the question on to a factory overseas and wait for a response.
UK to UK delivery is swift and consistent in a way an international order rarely is.
Most orders are prepared within 2 to 3 weeks after you sign off on the proof, and once sent, our courier network delivers to Huyton with Roby addresses within one to two working days.
Compare a typical 8 to 12 week baseline lead time for packaging imported from the EU or the Far East, before you even account for a delayed container or a customs delay.
If you have an key important launch date or event cut-off, please tell us at the enquiry stage.
We’ll be straightforward about whether the timeline suits, rather than making a turnaround that disappoints you.
Tailored packaging for Huyton with Roby enterprises
The box styles we provide suit the majority of products, and each one is made to your measurements and produced with your branding.
The best format will depend on how the product is sold and shipped, so the most direct way to get the right answer is to tell our packaging experts what you are packing.
Store and Merchandise Packaging
A custom-printed carton takes care of the selling on the shelf when nobody from your team is there to explain the product.
Reverse tuck end boxes are well suited for lighter shop goods such as beauty products, supplements and personal care products, while a crash lock base provides heavier items with a sturdy floor that will not collapse in transport.
Both of the prints extend across every panel, including the inside, so the branding is clearly visible whatever way the box is set on a shelf or in a stockroom.
Shipping containers for e-commerce vendors
Huyton with Roby’s e-commerce brands are shipping continuously.
A tailored mailer box is frequently the sole tangible touchpoint a customer has with the brand, as there is no shop visit or in person handover to rely on.
Produced throughout, it shields the product across the courier network while making the unboxing itself part of the marketing. A properly fitted box also lowers the damage and returns that a poorly sized one can cause.
A simple brown outer allows the parcel delivered, but it gives the customer no indication about who sent it or why it looks that way.
Make a strong impression as soon as it arrives with Custom Pack Studio.

Present and exhibition boxes
Custom gift boxes are valuable.
A rigid box with a seamless closure, foil stamping on the lid, or a soft touch coating transforms how a product is perceived before it is even opened.
It is exactly the case for jewellery items, perfume, and boutique food brands, where the packaging forms part of what the customer has bought.
Foil stamping remains the final treatment that delivers the greatest impact on a shelf, drawing light in a way standard print cannot, while soft touch coating performs better once the box is in a person’s hands, since it suggests quality the moment they touch it
The embossing effect sits between the two, creating a logo that you can both feel and see, and it works very well on jewellery and perfume boxes where the surface itself becomes part of the presentation.
Sleeves and wallets
Not every branding project requires a full box rebuild.
A branded sleeve covers an existing tray or product and adds your branding without the need to revamp the entire packaging, making it perfect for a brief promotional run or a holiday variant.
A wallet style box folds tidily around flatter products such as cards or cosmetics sets, while internal inserts help prevent loose items from sliding inside a larger box during transit.

Corrugated Crates and Shipping Packages
A foldable carton will not, by itself, withstand a long delivery journey or safeguard a delicate item.
Corrugated board is designed for that purpose.
We create corrugated cardboard boxes to bespoke pack sizes and print them them in colour, so a Huyton with Roby brand sending nationwide gets added protection and branding built into a single format, far beyond a plain double walled box with a sticker stuck on top.
Sectors Our Company Cater To Across Huyton with Roby
Huyton with Roby’s company range includes beauty and skincare businesses, jewellery brands, food businesses, corporate offices, and e-commerce businesses.
Food and beverage businesses face the strictest regulations, as product safety in contact with the product takes priority over all consideration of how the box looks.
This is where our BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level makes a difference, whether you are a small-batch bakery or a wholesale supplier. It is the standard that supermarket buyers and local retailers typically want to see before they will take on a new product.
Jewellery brands often gain greater value from their packaging investment than the majority of different categories.
A rigid box with a tailored insert frequently holds an item worth much more than the box itself, so the packaging must reflect that value.
Beauty and perfume brands rely on protective fitments and premium finishes for much the same reason. The product itself is small, so the box does much of the convincing on a shelf.
E commerce and subscription businesses require a mailer that can endure the courier network without harm.
For many internet-based merchants, the parcel is the sole tangible point of contact a customer at any point has with the brand.
Zero minimum order, any quantity accepted
Request most packaging suppliers for 50 boxes branded with your own design on them.
You will frequently be asked to return when you can commit to 1,000. That is a substantial demand for a Huyton with Roby business evaluating a new product or ordering a small batch before it expands.
There is no required minimum in any way.
Order one sample to evaluate print quality, 50 boxes for a market stall, or several thousand once a retail listing demonstrates demand. The process and pricing structure remain the same for every quantity.
Per-unit price falls as order quantity rises, which is standard throughout the packaging industry.
Subsequent orders use the same artwork and setup, so you are not charged twice for the design work.
We confirm the price and lead time in writing before production begins, so there is no variation between the quote and the invoice.
Project support provided regardless of stage you’re at
You do not need designer staff to submit a custom packaging order here.
If you have a brand logo and a general idea of what you want, that is enough to begin. Our staff will set out the box layout, create the print-ready artwork and send you a proof to approve before anything goes to press.
For a product that does not suit an ready-made format, structural design is built in in the price. It is not charged as an extra.
Files supplied as a JPEG or screenshot are converted to proper print specification.
The majority of artwork comes without the image resolution or bleed that a box actually needs.
Our team reviews colour accuracy, resolution and bleed against the press profile before anything goes into production, so the print matches what you signed off.
A design consultation is on offer if you would prefer to discuss the options before committing to a specification.
You can also use our in-house online design tool if you would like to create the artwork yourself.
Sustainably sourced, eco-friendly materials
Every box we create is 100% recyclable and manufactured from board carrying FSC and PEFC certification. This indicates it can be traced back through an audited supply chain to a responsibly run forest.
We are phasing out single-use plastic and EPS foam across the range, swapping them for paper based and biodegradable alternatives where the format permits. These materials break down as they should at the end of their life in a way plastic or foam do not.
If a credible environmental claim counts to you and your customers, we can help walk you through the various ways your bespoke packaging can help in reducing waste.
Here’s Why Huyton with Roby Businesses Choose Custom Pack Studio as the Chosen Packaging Supplier
One manufacturing facility, through every stage
Every carton we make is cut, printed and finished under one roof at our Irvine factory.
The same team supervises the quality at every step, instead of the work being handed from one subcontractor to the next.
A colour that looks right on screen does not always print in the same way, and the person responsible for checking it is the one running the press.
Faults are noticed and fixed before a box reaches dispatch, by the same team that noticed the issue at the outset.
Board and ink are likewise sourced from the very same suppliers again and again, so a colour that matched on your initial proof still matches your fifth reorder after two years.
Supported by just under thirty years in printing and packaging
Custom Pack Studio launched in 2025, yet the factory that supports it has a considerably longer history.
We are part of the team at KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, a leading print and packaging manufacturer that has operated presses since 1997.
That history has built established relationships with board mills and materials suppliers. It also means our team has already dealt with many of the challenges a new packaging order can present.
That is reflected in subtle details, such as understanding which board thickness can endure a courier journey.
It further illustrates why we can manage a delicate perfume box and a heavy duty shipping carton during the same week, with presses that have processed both for years.

A assigned contact for the duration of the whole order
You will be dealing with the same person from your initial enquiry right through to the final delivery.
There is no transfer between your sales staff and a distinct production division.
The team comprehend your requirements, your timeframe and what you asked for at the review stage, so you do not need to repeat yourself at every point.
If a material is on back order or a finish needs reconsidering, you will be told personally from the person handling your job.
It furthermore means you will not once have to explain your order from the beginning to a new person partway through the production process.
You can get in touch with that person directly by phone, email or message, without needing to go through a general query inbox first.
That exact same approach whatever the specified number
A one sample and a five thousand unit reorder go through the very same proofing and quality checks before either leaves the factory.
No thing is hurried along just because the run is short, and no thing is given extra scrutiny simply because it is substantial.
A Huyton with Roby business trialling a new product receives the same standard as one ordering again for a national retail listing. The process remains unchanged irrespective of the order size.
That uniformity matters more than any possible saving on a larger run, because a mismatched batch usually can cost more to put right than it saved in price per unit.
Whether it is 50 units for a trial run or thousands for a retail rollout, the proofing sign-off works in precisely the same way each time.
