Sustainable Packaging for Small Businesses
Packaging Supplier Basildon

Regardless of your packaging requirements, ranging from a single sample to a complete range of products for a continuing account, are overseen by a single factory and a single dedicated team.

We keep your artwork on file, reproduce your colours on your tenth reorder just as on the first, and tell you honestly when a deadline is tight.

A one named contact oversees your enquiry, production and delivery, from the initial sample through to a reorder two years later. The spec stays the same because the same person continues to be responsible.

For a packaging supplier built to grow with your business, get in touch with the helpful team at Custom Pack Studio today.

How do changes take place when wrapping becomes a continuous supplier alliance with Basildon?

An initial order largely concerns the box itself, including whether it fits, produces a good print, and arrives on schedule.

A supplier relationship earns trust by order six, when an identical product requires the same colour and fit, without needing the specification again.

We oversee board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, ensuring colour and wall thickness remain uniform from your first order through all subsequent reorders.

The individual putting together your quotation will likewise handle your job on the press.

If any aspect of a reorder requires clarification, you can contact them directly and receive a straightforward answer.

How come Basildon businesses prefer our company’s packaging options

There is no minimum spend on each product

We do not have a minimum order for anything we produce, meaning a single sample and a five-hundred-unit reorder follow the same process.

We impose no minimum volume requirement, and a small order will not attract an additional charge.

This shows we grow with your Basildon business.

Once you are ready to grow your business or product line, we will assist you along your journey.

One sole assigned contact starting from enquiry until delivery

A single dedicated contact oversees your account from the initial enquiry to delivery, retaining a clear understanding of your specification when you are prepared to place another order.

You will not be passed between departments or left having to explain the job again to someone new each time you call.

Several generations of onsite manufacturing

KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, the parent company of our business, has operated presses in the UK since 1997.

This history indicates the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are long-established partners, built over decades rather than selected anew for each incoming job.

As we mix ink and keep our own board stock, colour matching is not dependent on a third party printer interpreting your brief.

The factory produces precisely what is signed off on the proof.

Shipping personalised to your Basildon business

Wherever your business is located in the country, we send out everything from one sample to a full pallet!

In Basildon, our delivery service adheres to the same schedule from the same Irvine factory, whatever the order size or destination.

Whether you need one box sent for approval or several pallets scheduled around a launch date, the same logistics process handles everything, ensuring delivery remains unchanged as the order grows.

Tailor Made Solutions Built Around Your Offering

Particular products defy the dimensions of a regular box.

If yours has an unusual shape or challenging dimensions, we design the structure to fit it precisely. Components requiring separation during transit receive the same careful treatment, incorporated into the structure from the start rather than introduced later.

Our design specialists reviews your actual product rather than depending entirely on a specification sheet. An initial sample checks fit and function before production in full gets under way.

If the die cut needs refining, we revise it and provide a second sample instead of producing a batch that does not meet requirements.

Luminae Packaging - Custom Pack Studio

Wrapping products by Bespoke Pack Studio

All packaging in our range is manufactured at our own factory, ensuring the finish approved on a sample is the same as the finish supplied in an order of five hundred.

From tailor-made packaging for one product line to the accessories that complete every order, everything is made on a one production line.

Cases and packing boxes

Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes suit different retail and product packaging, with each panel printed so branding can be seen wherever containers are placed.

For jewellery and gifting, a rigid box featuring magnetic closure or a foil stamped lid starts presenting the product before it is even opened.

The quality of the board and the accuracy of its die cut are just as important here as the printing itself.

Cardboard shipping packs and postage packaging

Postal mailer boxes are produced to fit your product’s exact dimensions, minimising void fill and helping to prevent the damage that an unsuitable box may cause during transit.

For larger or heavier products, we produce corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, whilst printed inserts safeguard the contents inside.

A gusseted box opens out to accommodate multiple items in one order, making it well suited for a subscription box or bundle whose contents vary each month.

Packing customised to the area

Our premium packaging is developed to serve a wide variety of products across numerous industries.

Cuisine packaging basics

We hold BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, which is often the first assurance our food packaging customers seek, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers expanding into retail.

Packaged products for food and beverages must meet the highest standards of every category we supply, because product contact safety takes precedence over appearance.

Luxury industry

For jewellery and cosmetics, a shaped insert or foam recess prevents movement during transit, while foil stamping or soft touch lamination echoes the product within.

We assist you in creating packaging that suits your goods, creating a luxurious feel for your company.

Postal parcels and digital commerce labels

When a mailer is delivered crushed, it typically signals a return or refund request, leaving online brands requiring packaging durable enough to emerge whole from the delivery network.

Moreover, tailored packaging turns unboxing into a lasting experience.

Converting an opening into lasting customer loyalty and, at times, free online advertising.

Keeping every reorder uniform

We process every reorder as we do a first order, using the same named contact, proofing process, and board and ink suppliers as before.

Larger orders reduce the unit cost, with the reduction included in the stated price rather than requiring a discount code to be applied.

The same pricing applies to twenty boxes, a few thousand replenished over the course of a quarter, or a pallet secured for large-volume delivery.

A matched reorder obtained from a different supplier goes through identical proofing and quality checks as a new design.

No item is accepted without examination merely because it is intended to look like something you already owned.

Sustainable procurement from our premier packaging centre

Each box we manufacture is entirely recyclable, helping to cut down on plastic and landfill waste.

We will refrain from adding laminate solely for a glossy finish if it makes a box more difficult to recycle, while reducing single use plastic and EPS foam throughout the range.

If your sustainability claim must withstand a procurement audit, we would be pleased to talk it through with you in person or by phone.

How swapping or beginning operates

Please get in touch us with an general summary of what you need to pack, where you are located in Basildon, the quantity required, and whether an existing supplier needs to be matched.

If you are considering new products or wish to assess their quality before placing a complete order, you can request a sample through our complimentary samples service.

Approve the proof after our team has completed the artwork, matched any existing spec and verified pricing in writing.

Production and delivery normally take two to three weeks. Most UK and Basildon addresses receive their orders within one to two working days of dispatch.

As needed, reorder through the same named contact, using the specification already held on file.
