Whatever your packaging requirements, from one sample to a complete range of products for an ongoing account, one factory and one team manage everything.
Your artwork is kept safe with us, your colours retain their true appearance from the first order through the tenth, and we communicate clearly whenever a deadline allows little room for delay.
A single named contact handles your enquiry, production and delivery, from the first sample through to a reorder two years later. The spec stays the same because the same person stays responsible.

Which shifts when packaging becomes an long-term provider collaboration?
An early order typically centres on the box in question: whether it fits properly, prints clearly and arrives on schedule.
A supplier relationship earns trust by order six, when an identical product requires the same colour and fit, without requiring the specification again.
We manage board stock and ink mixing at our own factory, making sure colour and wall thickness stay consistent from your first order through every subsequent reorder.
The person who quotes your job also produces it on the press.
Should any aspect of a reorder require clarification, you can speak to them directly and receive a straightforward answer.
Why Billingham companies prefer our packaging services
Zero minimum spend on all listing
We do not have a minimum order for anything we produce, meaning one sample and a five-hundred-unit reorder follow the identical process.
We do not need a minimum volume to take on your job, and small orders never attract an additional charge.
This means we expand in step with your Billingham business.
Whenever you are ready to grow your business or product line, we will be by your side throughout every step of your journey!
A dedicated dedicated contact, from request to delivery
Your dedicated contact remains with your account from enquiry all the way through to delivery, so they know your spec when you are ready to place another order.
You are never transferred between teams, or required to repeat the details of the job to a different person whenever you get in touch.
Numerous decades of onsite manufacturing
Our parent company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has managed printing presses in the UK since 1997.
That history shows the board and ink suppliers fulfilling your order are trusted relationships built over decades, rather than sourced afresh for each job.
Because we prepare ink and hold board stock in house, colour matching does not rely on a third party printer interpreting your brief.
The version approved on the proof is the same as what leaves the factory.
Distribution bespoke according to your Billingham enterprise
We deliver nationwide, wherever your business is based, from a single sample to a full pallet.
Each order is collected by our delivery service from the Irvine factory according to one schedule, irrespective of its size or destination in Billingham.
Whether you are seeking a single box sent for sign-off or multiple pallets arranged for a launch date, one consistent logistics process handles both, ensuring delivery continues as usual as your order increases.
Made-to-order designs tailored around your offering.
A few products do not sit within a standard box.
If yours has an atypical shape or challenging dimensions, we design the structure to fit it precisely. Components that require separation during transit receive the same considered treatment, built into the structure from the outset rather than being added afterwards.
Our design professionals evaluate your physical product rather than depending entirely on specifications. An initial sample verifies fit and operation before any unit moves into full production.
If the die cut requires adjustment, we amend it and provide a second sample rather than producing a batch that is not suitable.
Boxing items from Bespoke Pack Studio
Every product in our packaging range is produced at our own factory, so the finish approved on your sample is the exact finish you receive when ordering five hundred.
From custom packaging made for a single product line to the accessories that finish each order, everything is produced from one production line.
Cartons and packages
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes are suitable for a diverse range of retail and product packaging, with printing on every panel to help keep your branding visible regardless of how the container is arranged on a shelf.
When it comes to jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid does much of the selling before it is even opened.
In this case, good-quality board and an exact die cut are equally important as the printing itself.
Cardboard postage mailers and shipping packaging
Postal mailer boxes are designed to match your product’s measurements, reducing surplus void fill and reducing the damage that an ill-fitting box may cause during transit.
For bigger or bulkier products, we produce corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, while printed inserts protect the contents within.
A gusseted box expands to hold multiple items in one order, making it a suitable choice for subscription boxes or bundle deals whose contents change each month.
Wrapping customised to your field
Our top-grade packaging is particularly suitable to varied products across many industries.
Food packaging supplies
We maintain BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, often serving as the first assurance our food packaging customers seek, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers moving into retail.
Food and drink packaging meets the most demanding requirements across all the products we supply, as keeping products safe in contact is much more important than the appearance of the box.
High-end industry
For jewellery and cosmetics, a shaped insert or foam recess keeps the contents from moving in transit, while foil stamping or soft touch lamination echoes the product within.
We create packaging designs that complement your goods, bringing your brand a decidedly luxurious feel.
Postal packages for online brands
When a mailer arrives at its destination crushed, it typically signals a request for a return or refund, leaving online brands needing packaging sturdy enough to emerge whole from the courier system.
Tailored packaging also provides a lasting unboxing experience.
Turning an opening into customer loyalty and, occasionally, free online advertising!
Maintaining all reshuffling constantly
A reorder adheres to the same procedure as a initial order, using the same designated contact and proofing process, with board and ink obtained from the same suppliers as before.
As your order gets larger, the unit cost drops, with savings included in the price, so there is no discount code to remember!
The same pricing structure is applicable to twenty boxes, several thousand replenished during a quarter, and even a pallet secured for bulk delivery.
A repeat order from another supplier undergoes the same proofing process and rigorous quality checks as an completely new design.
Everything is evaluated independently, even when made to look like something you previously owned.
Sustainable procurement from our foremost packaging plant
Each box we manufacture is fully recyclable, helping to reduce both plastic rubbish and waste sent to landfill.
We will not add laminate solely for a shiny finish if it makes a box more difficult to recycle, and we are moving away from single use plastic and EPS foam throughout the range.
If a sustainability claim needs to withstand a procurement audit, we are pleased to discuss it face to face or by telephone.
