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 keep your artwork securely on file, match your colours with the same accuracy on the tenth reorder as on the first, and let you know immediately if a deadline appears challenging.
A single named contact oversees your enquiry, production and delivery, from the first sample to a reorder two years later. The specification remains consistent because the same person remains responsible.

What shifts occur when packaging becomes an continuous supplier relationship with Bradley Stoke
An initial order largely concerns the box itself, including whether it is the right fit, prints well, and is delivered on time.
A solid supplier relationship demonstrates its worth on order six, when the same product requires the same colour and fit, without you needing to explain the specification once more.
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 all subsequent reorders.
The person who prepares your quotation also oversees its production on the press.
If any aspect of a reorder requires clarification, you can contact them directly and receive a straightforward answer.
Why Bradley Stoke businesses go for our packaging packages
Without any minimum order on the whole selection.
There’s no minimum order for any item we produce, so a single sample or a reorder of five hundred units follows exactly the same process!
We do not require a minimum volume before taking on your work, nor do we apply an additional charge simply because the order is small.
This indicates we develop along with your Bradley Stoke company.
When the time comes to grow your business or product line, we will support you throughout the process.
A sole designated contact beginning at enquiry to delivery
The same dedicated personal contact looks after your account from initial enquiry through to delivery, already being familiar with your specification when you are ready to order again.
You are never transferred between departments or asked to describe the job again to a another member of the team whenever you telephone.
Many decades of internal manufacturing
Our parent company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has run printing presses in the UK since 1997.
This longstanding history means that the board and ink suppliers involved with your order are trusted relationships developed over decades, rather than sourced anew for each new job.
We mix ink and hold board stock in house, so colour matching does not depend on a third party printer interpreting your brief.
The facility manufactures precisely what is signed off on the proof.
Distribution shaped according to your Bradley Stoke operation
We ship nationwide to your company, whether you need a single sample or a complete pallet.
Our delivery service picks up from the same factory in Irvine following a regular schedule, regardless of the size of the order or destination within Bradley Stoke.
Whether you need one box couriered for approval or several pallets arranged around a launch date, the same logistics process oversees everything, ensuring delivery remains unchanged as the order expands.
Bespoke creations developed to fit your product
A few products do not sit within a standard box.
When yours has an uncommon shape or awkward dimensions, we design the structure to accommodate it. Components that require separation during transit are given the same consideration, being built into the structure instead of being added afterwards.
Our team of designers assesses your actual product rather than relying solely on a specification sheet. An initial sample confirms fit and function before full production begins.
If the die cut needs modification, we amend it and issue a further sample rather than creating a batch that is unsuitable.
Boxing merchandise via Custom Pack Studio
Each item in our packaging range is manufactured at our own factory, so the finish approved on your sample is exactly what you receive when ordering five hundred.
Whether it’s custom packaging for a single product line or the accessories that finish an order, everything is produced on one production line.
Packages and cartons
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes suit varied retail and product packaging, with each panel printed so branding stays visible wherever containers are positioned.
For jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with magnetic closure or a foil stamped lid helps sell the product before it is even unwrapped!
The standard of the board material and accuracy of the die cutting are just as important as the print itself.
Recycled cardboard letter parcels and dispatch packaging
Postal mailer boxes are produced to match your product’s dimensions instead of a standard size, reducing the need for void fill and reducing damage resulting from a poorly fitting box during transit.
When bulkier items begin their journey, full colour corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons keep them protected, while printed inserts gently cushion everything inside.
A gusseted box expands to accommodate multiple items in one order, making it suitable for subscription boxes or bundle deals whose contents vary each month.
Packing services for every business
Our high-quality packaging is ideally suited to a wide range of products across many industries.
Edible packaging materials
We hold BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, often serving as the first assurance our food packaging customers seek, from small bakeries to wholesale suppliers expanding 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.
Luxury market
For cosmetics, a bespoke insert or foam recess limits movement during transit, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination reflect the product within.
We assist with designing packaging that enhances your items and adds your brand a premium feel.
Mail lockers and online shopping brands
A squashed mailer often triggers a request for a return or refund, making robust packaging essential for e commerce brands that require boxes to endure the courier network and arrive intact.
Moreover, custom-made packaging transforms opening the parcel into a memorable unboxing experience.
Turning an opening into customer loyalty and, at times, no-cost online advertising!
Maintaining every re-arrangement uniform
We process every reorder in the same way as a first order, retaining the same named contact, proofing process, and board and ink suppliers as previously.
Bigger orders bring down the unit cost, with the reduction built into the stated price rather than requiring a discount code to be applied.
This pricing approach is applicable whether you require twenty boxes, several thousand replenished within a quarter, or a pallet prepared for bulk delivery.
Even a matched reorder from a different supplier receives identical proofing and quality checks as those applied to an brand-new design.
No item is accepted solely because it is intended to resemble something you already had.
Ethical sourcing from our leading packaging facility
Every box we make is entirely recyclable, helping to cut down on plastic and landfill waste.
We won’t introduce laminate just for a glossy finish if it makes a box harder to recycle, and we are moving away from single use plastic and EPS foam across the range.
If a sustainability claim must withstand a procurement audit, we are happy to talk it through in person or by telephone.
