Whatever your packaging requirements, from one sample to a complete range of products for an ongoing account, one factory and one team handle it all.
We retain your artwork securely in our records, match your colours with the same accuracy on the tenth reorder as on the first, and tell you straight away if a deadline appears challenging.
A dedicated representative oversees your enquiry, manufacturing and dispatch, from the initial sample to a repeat order after two years. Because they remain part of the process, the specification stays unchanged.

What kind of adjustments take place when packaging becomes an sustained supplier relationship with Barnsley
A first order is really about the box in question: will it fit properly, print clearly and reach you on time?
A supplier relationship matters on order six, when the same product needs the same colour and fit, without you needing to explain the specification again from the beginning.
We oversee board stock and ink mixing in our very own factory, making sure colour and wall thickness remain consistent from your first order through every reorder.
The team member putting together your quotation will also operate your job on the press.
Should any aspect of a reorder require clarification, you can speak to them directly and receive a genuine answer.
Why Barnsley businesses opt for our packaging options
No minimum spend on all item
We do not impose minimum order quantities on anything we produce, which means one sample and a five hundred unit reorder follow precisely the same process.
We do not require a minimum quantity before taking on your job, nor do we add an additional charge simply because your order is small.
This means we grow with your Barnsley business.
When you feel ready to grow your business or product line, we will guide you through every stage of your journey.
An assigned dedicated contact, from request to final delivery
The same person continues handling your account from initial enquiry to delivery, already aware of your specifications when you come to reorder.
You are never passed from one department to another, nor left repeating the details of your job every time you call.
Many generations of onsite manufacturing
Our holding company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has managed presses in the UK since 1997.
That heritage means the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are trusted relationships developed over decades, rather than new sources found for every incoming job.
As we prepare ink and keep board stock in house, colour matching never depends on a third party printer understanding your brief.
The factory produces exactly what is shown on the approved proof.
Delivery crafted around your Barnsley company
Wherever your business is located in the country, we deliver everything from one sample to a full pallet!
Our delivery service collects from the same factory in Irvine following a consistent schedule, regardless of the size of the order or destination within Barnsley.
Whether you are seeking a single box couriered for approval or multiple pallets arranged for a launch date, one reliable logistics process manages both, ensuring delivery stays consistent as your order grows.
Individually Crafted Blueprints Created To Suit Your Product
Some products do not sit within a standard box.
Where your item has an atypical shape or difficult dimension, we create the structure to fit it precisely. Components that need separating in transit are integrated into the structure, rather than fitted later.
Your actual product is where our design process starts, rather than a specification sheet alone. Before full production starts, a first sample confirms its fit and function.
If the die cut requires refinement, we adjust it and provide another sample instead of producing a batch that is unsuitable.
Boxing items from Custom Pack Studio
Every item of packaging in our range is made at our own site, meaning that the finish agreed from a sample is exactly the finish supplied for an order of five hundred.
Everything from bespoke packaging for one product line to the accessories completing an order is made on one production line.
Containers and packages
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes accommodate numerous retail and product packaging needs, with each panel printed to keep your branding in view wherever the container stands on a shelf.
For jewellery and gift-giving, a rigid box with magnetic closure or a foil stamped lid handles much of the selling before being opened.
High quality board material and an accurate die cut are just as important here as the print itself.
Paperboard mailers and postal packaging
Postal mailer boxes are created to fit your goods, rather than a uniform size, minimising wasted space and damage caused in transit by a poorly fitted box.
When heavier items are sent on their way, full colour corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons keep them protected, while printed inserts carefully cushion everything inside.
A gusseted box expands to accommodate multiple items in one order, making it suitable for a subscription box or bundle deal whose contents differ each month.
Packaging solutions for any field
Our high-quality packaging is suitable for numerous products across a range of industries.
Meal packaging basics
Our BRC Global Packaging certification covers the High Hygiene level. It is generally the first assurance food packaging customers look for, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers expanding into retail.
Of every category we offer, food and drink packaging is governed by the most demanding requirements, as ensuring safe contact with the product takes priority over the box’s visual appeal.
Elite sector
When jewellery and cosmetics are transported, a fitted insert or foam cavity keeps each product securely, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination echo what lies within.
We work with you to create packaging that enhances your products and brings a luxurious feel to your brand.
Letter containers and internet retail labels
A damaged mailer frequently leads to a return or refund request, making hard-wearing packaging necessary for e commerce brands that require boxes to endure the courier network and reach their destination intact.
Additionally, customised packaging provides a memorable unboxing experience.
Turning an opening into customer loyalty and, from time to time, complimentary online advertising!
Keeping every reshuffle consistent
We process every reorder in exactly the same way as a initial order, using the same named contact, identical proofing procedure, and board and ink from the suppliers used before.
The price per unit falls as the order size increases, with those savings already factored in the pricing rather than relying on a discount code you need to remember to use.
This pricing model covers equally twenty boxes, several thousand replenished during a quarter, or a pallet arranged for bulk delivery.
A matched reorder procured from another supplier goes through identical proofing and quality checks as a new design.
No item passes an inspection just because it looks like something you possess already.
Eco-friendly sourcing from our first-class packaging site
Every box we create is 100% recyclable, helping to reduce plastic and landfill waste.
We will not add laminate solely for a glossy finish if doing so makes a box harder to recycle, and we are moving away from single use plastic and EPS foam across the range.
If you require a sustainability claim to withstand procurement audit scrutiny, we would be pleased to talk it through with you face to face or by telephone.
How changing or launching works
Please contact us with an rough description of what you need to pack, where you are based in Barnsley, the number required, and whether we need to replicate an existing supplier.
If you are testing new products or would like to evaluate their quality before submitting a full order, ask for a sample through our free samples service.
Provide approval for the proof after our team has completed the artwork, checked it against any current specification and supplied written price confirmation.
Production and delivery usually take two to three weeks, while most UK and Barnsley addresses receive deliveries within one to two working days after dispatch.
Whenever needed, place a repeat order through the same named contact using the same specification held on file.
