Which alterations arise when container design becomes an long-term supplier relationship with Brighton and Hove
A first order is primarily about the box itself: will it fit properly, print clearly and reach you on time?
A working relationship with a supplier is confirmed on order six, when the same product calls for the same colour and fit, without requiring you to restate the specification again from scratch.
Because we handle board stock and ink mixing inside our own factory, your colour and wall thickness stay consistent from the initial order through every reorder that follows.
The individual preparing your quotation is also the one who manages your job on the press.
Questions about a reorder go directly to them for a straightforward, genuine answer.
Here’s Why Brighton and Hove businesses select Our packaging solutions
Zero minimum purchase on all article
We do not require a minimum order on all products we make, so one sample and a reorder of five hundred units are handled using identical procedures.
We impose no minimum volume requirement, and a lower-volume order will not carry an additional charge.
This means, we develop alongside your Brighton and Hove company.
When you are prepared to expand your business or widen your product range, we will assist you throughout every stage of your journey.
One assigned liaison, from initial request to dispatch
Your dedicated contact supports your account from enquiry all the way through to delivery, so they are familiar with your spec when you are ready to place another order.
You are never transferred between teams, or required to explain the job again to a different person whenever you get in touch.
Numerous years of on-site manufacturing
KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, the parent company of our business, has been operating presses in the UK since 1997.
That heritage means the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are reliable partners developed over decades, rather than new sources found for every incoming job.
As we prepare ink and hold board stock in house, colour matching never depends on a third party printer interpreting your brief.
What you approve on the proof is precisely what leaves the factory!
Shipment tailored to your Brighton and Hove company
We deliver nationwide, regardless of where your business is based, from a single sample to a full pallet.
Our delivery service collects from the same facility in Irvine according to a consistent schedule, irrespective of order size or location within Brighton and Hove.
Whether a single box requires couriering for approval or multiple pallets need to arrive for a launch date, one logistics process manages both, ensuring delivery remains reliable as orders grow.
Bespoke designs crafted to suit your product
Some products do not fit within a standard box.
If yours has an irregular shape or awkward dimensions, we plan the structure to suit it exactly. Components requiring separation during transit receive the same thoughtful treatment, built into the structure from the start rather than added later.
Our design team deals directly with your actual product rather than depending entirely on a spec sheet. The first sample assesses fit and function before full production begins.
Should the die cut require refinement, we revise it and supply a second sample rather than making an unfit batch.
Wrapping goods by Custom Packaging Studio
Every item of packaging in our range is made at our own site, ensuring that the finish agreed from a sample is precisely the finish provided for an order of five hundred.
Everything from bespoke packaging for one product line to the accessories included with an order is made on one production line.
Containers and cartons
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes are suitable for varied retail and product packaging, with each panel printed so branding remains visible wherever containers are positioned.
When it comes to jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid starts selling the product prior to being opened.
The standard of the board material and accuracy of the die cutting are equally important as the print itself.
Recycled postal packets and dispatch packaging
Postal mailer boxes are produced to match your product’s dimensions instead of a standard size, minimising the need for void fill and reducing damage resulting from a poorly fitting box during transit.
For heavier items, we create corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, while printed inserts support whatever is placed inside.
A gusseted box opens out to hold multiple items in one order, making it well suited for subscription boxes or bundle deals whose contents change monthly.
Packing services for your sector
Our premium packaging is carefully designed to support products across a diverse range of industries.
Food wrapping products
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.
Across every category we supply, food and drink packaging demands the highest level of care, because safety where packaging meets the product must always take priority over the box’s appearance.
Upscale field
For jewellery and cosmetics, a custom-made insert or foam recess prevents movement during transit, while finishes including foil stamping or soft touch lamination reflect the product within.
We assist you develop packaging that complements your items and gives your brand a premium feel.
Mail packaging for online brands
A squashed mailer frequently leads to a return or refund request, making durable packaging necessary for e commerce brands that require boxes to cope with the courier network and remain undamaged on arrival.
Bespoke packaging also delivers a memorable unboxing experience.
Turning an opening into lasting customer loyalty and, at times, free online advertising.
Keeping each reshuffle steadily
A reorder uses the same procedure as a initial order, using the same named contact and proofing process, with board and ink supplied by the same suppliers as before.
The unit cost decreases as the quantity ordered grows, with those savings already incorporated in the pricing rather than relying on a discount code you have to remember to enter.
This pricing structure is applied equally to twenty boxes, several thousand restocked during a quarter, or a pallet arranged for bulk delivery.
Even when ordering again a matched item from a different supplier, we complete the same proofing and quality checks needed for a completely new design.
Nothing gets approved automatically just because it looks like something you already had!
Eco-friendly procurement from our premier packaging site
Every box we make is completely recyclable, helping to reduce 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 reducing our use of single use plastic and EPS foam across the range.
If you require a sustainability claim to stand up to procurement audit scrutiny, we would be pleased to discuss it with you in person or over the telephone.
