Whatever your packaging requirements, from a single sample to a full range of products for a continuing account, are managed by a single factory and a single dedicated team.
We retain your artwork securely on file, match your colours just as accurately on the tenth reorder as on the first, and inform you promptly if a deadline seems tight.
A single contact oversees your enquiry, manufacturing and dispatch, from the first sample to a reorder after two years. Because they remain involved, the specification stays the same.

How alterations happen if packaging transforms into an enduring vendor association
A initial order largely evaluates the box itself: whether it fits, prints correctly and arrives on schedule.
A relationship with a supplier demonstrates its value on the sixth order, when an matching product calls for matching colour and fit, without requiring you to restate the specification from the beginning.
We oversee board stock and ink mixing at our own factory, helping to ensure colour and wall thickness remain consistent from your first order through all later reorders.
The person who quotes your job also runs it on the press.
Should a repeat order require further explanation, they are the person to speak to directly for a straightforward, genuine answer.
Why Braintree-led businesses select the packaging packages
Zero minimum order on each product
We do not require minimum quantities per order on anything we produce, meaning one sample and a five hundred unit reorder are handled through exactly the same process.
We impose no minimum volume requirement, and a lower-volume order will not incur an additional charge.
This shows that our development is in line with your Braintree business.
When the time arrives to expand your business or product line, we will assist you at each stage.
One single designated contact from enquiry through to delivery
Your assigned contact supports your account from enquiry right through to delivery, so they are familiar with your spec when you are looking to reorder.
You are not passed between departments, or forced to repeat the details of the job to a different person whenever you call.
Decades of in-house fabrication
Since 1997, our parent business, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has run printing presses in the UK.
This background shows the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are established over many years partners, formed over decades rather than newly sourced for each incoming job.
Since we mix our own ink and keep board stock, colour matching doesn’t rely on a third party printer understanding your brief.
The factory produces precisely what appears on the approved proof.
Delivery bespoke to your Braintree operation
Wherever in the country your business calls its base across the country, we deliver from one sample to a full pallet.
Our delivery service collects from the same factory in Irvine following a regular schedule, irrespective of order size or destination within Braintree.
Whether you want a one box provided for approval or several pallets planned around a launch date, the same logistics process handles both, so that delivery continues in the same way as the order expands.
Customised concepts made to fit your item
A number of products simply do not fit into a regular box.
When yours has an unusual shape or difficult dimensions, we create the structure to work around it. Components needing separation during transit are given the same consideration, being built into the structure instead of being added 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 needs adjusting, we revise it and create a second sample instead of making an unusable batch.
Packing products by Custom Packaging 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 tailor-made packaging for one product line to the accessories completing an order, everything is produced on one production line.
Containers and cartons
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes suit a wide range of retail and product packaging needs, with each panel printed to keep your branding in view wherever the container rests on a shelf.
For jewellery and gift-giving, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid begins selling the product before it is even opened.
In this case, good-quality board and an exact die cut are just as important as the printing itself.
Corrugated envelopes and delivery packaging
Postal mailer boxes are produced to fit your product’s exact dimensions, reducing void fill and preventing the damage that an unsuitable box may cause during transport.
For larger or heavier products, we produce corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, whilst printed inserts protect the contents inside.
A gusseted box increases in capacity to accommodate multiple items in one order, making it well suited for a subscription box or bundle deal with contents that change each month.
Packaging options for the sector
Our top-quality packaging is ideal for a wide variety of products and industries!
Edible packaging basics
Our BRC Global Packaging certification covers the High Hygiene level. It is typically the first assurance food packaging customers seek, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers moving into retail.
Of every category we provide, food and drink packaging is governed by the most demanding requirements, as maintaining safe contact with the product takes priority over the box’s appearance.
Prestige sector
For jewellery, a tailored insert or foam recess prevents movement during transit, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination echo the product within.
We produce packaging designs that suit your products, bringing your brand a distinctly luxurious feel.
Postal containers and ecommerce names
When a mailer arrives at its destination crushed, it often prompts a request for a return or refund, making durable packaging important for ecommerce brands navigating courier networks.
Furthermore, tailored packaging delivers a remarkable unboxing experience.
An opening can lead to customer loyalty and, at times, free advertising online.
Preserving each reorganisation reliably
When a reorder arrives, we handle it as a first order, retaining the same named contact, following the identical proofing process, and sourcing board and ink from the suppliers used previously.
As your order grows, the per-unit price falls, with the saving included in the pricing rather than depending on a discount code.
The identical pricing structure applies to twenty boxes, several thousand restocked within a quarter, and even a pallet prepared for bulk delivery.
A repeat order from another supplier undergoes the same proofing procedure and rigorous quality checks as an completely new design.
No article passes an inspection merely because it resembles something you already own.
Green sourcing from our flagship packaging plant
Each box we create is fully recyclable, which helps reduce plastic and landfill waste.
We will not add laminate solely for a glossy finish if it makes a box more difficult to recycle. We are also reducing single use plastic and EPS foam throughout the range.
If a sustainability statement need reviewing during a procurement audit, we would be happy to examine it with you in person or over the telephone.
How changing or initiating works
Please get in touch with us with an general summary of what you need to pack, where you are located in Braintree, the quantity required, and whether an existing supplier must be matched.
Request a sample through our free samples service when trialling new products or checking quality before proceeding with a full order.
Approve the proof after our team has created the artwork, aligned it with any current specification and supplied written price confirmation.
Production and delivery generally require two to three weeks, while the majority of UK and Braintree addresses get their orders within one to two working days after dispatch.
Place another order whenever needed via the same named contact, with the same specification already on file.

Explore your ideal packaging solution with Custom Pack Studio now.
Call 01294 314 919 or email contact@custompackstudio.co.uk. If you are moving from another supplier, send us your current specification or a sample of the existing box, allowing us to quote directly against it rather than beginning with a blank page.
Beginning from scratch can be equally effective.
Share an approximate description of your packing needs and quantity required by telephone, or begin designing with our online design tool before ordering. We will send without delay a written quotation, with no obligation to proceed.
Your initial order comes with a no-cost sample, and so does the day your existing account transfers to us. In either case, the person who draws up your quotation will still be responsible for your account two years from now.
We ship throughout the UK straight to Braintree from the same Irvine factory, wherever your business is situated.
