Whatever your packaging requirements, ranging 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 in our records, reproduce your colours on your tenth reorder just as on the first, and let you know candidly when a deadline is tight.
A one named contact manages your enquiry, production and delivery, from the first sample to a reorder two years later. The specification stays consistent because the same person continues to be responsible.

How do shifts happen when packaging becomes a sustained vendor collaboration with Bristol?
An initial order is chiefly about the box itself: whether its size is suitable, whether it produces a clear print, and whether it is delivered promptly.
A relationship with a supplier shows its worth on the sixth order, when an equivalent product requires matching colour and fit, without making you restate the specification from the beginning.
We handle board stock and ink mixing at our own factory, making sure colour and wall thickness remain uniform from your first order through every subsequent reorder.
The individual who produces your quotation also manages its production on the press.
Should any aspect of a reorder require clarification, you can contact them directly and get a genuine answer.
Reasons Bristol businesses choose Our packaging services
There is no minimum requirement on every item
We do not impose a minimum order for all items we produce, so a single sample and a reorder of five hundred units go through the same process.
We do not require a minimum volume to take on your job, and small orders never incur an additional charge.
This means that our progress is in line with your Bristol business.
Whenever you are ready to expand your business or product line, we will be by your side throughout the entire course of your journey!
Sole identified point of contact from first enquiry to delivery
One dedicated contact handles your account from enquiry right through to delivery and knows your requirements when you are ready to reorder.
You are not passed around between departments or asked to go over the job again to someone new whenever you call.
Countless years of internal manufacturing
Our holding company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has run presses in the UK since 1997.
That heritage means the board and ink suppliers supporting your order embody relationships developed over decades, rather than sources newly found for every separate commission.
We mix ink and hold board stock in house, so colour matching does not rely on a third party printer understanding your brief.
The factory produces precisely what is approved on the proof.
Supply crafted for your Bristol business
Wherever your business calls home across the country, we deliver from one sample to a full pallet.
In Bristol, our delivery service keeps to the same schedule from the same Irvine factory, regardless of the order size or destination.
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 grows.
Tailored designs developed centred on your offering
A few products do not sit within a standard box.
When yours features an irregular shape or difficult dimension, we shape the structure to accommodate it. Components requiring separation during transit are integrated within it, never added later.
Our design team reviews your actual product rather than relying solely on a specification sheet. An initial sample verifies fit and function before full production gets under way.
If the die cut requires refinement, we refine it and provide another sample instead of producing a batch that does not work.
Boxing products from Personalised Pack Studio
Every piece of packaging in our collection is crafted within our own factory, ensuring the finish signed off on your sample is precisely the finish supplied with an order of five hundred.
From tailored packaging designed for a single product line to the accessories that accompany each order, everything emerges from one production line.
Cartons and boxes
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 ensure your branding in view regardless of how the container is arranged on a shelf.
For jewellery and gifts, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid begins selling the product before it is opened at all.
The quality of the board and the accuracy of its die cut are equally important here as the printing itself.
Corrugated postal packs and postage packaging
Postal mailer boxes are tailored to your product’s dimensions, minimising void fill and preventing the damage an poorly fitting box can cause in transit.
For bigger or heavier items, we produce corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, while printed inserts give cushioning for the items inside.
A gusseted box opens out to hold several items in one order, making it ideal for subscription boxes or bundle deals whose contents differ each month.
Packaging answers for your industry
Our high-quality packaging is well-suited to a wide range of products across a range of industries.
Meal wrapping materials
We hold BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, which is often the first assurance our food packaging customers look for, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers moving into retail.
Food and drink packaging faces the toughest requirements across everything we supply, as keeping products safe in contact is much more important than the appearance of the box.
Prestige industry
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 help you create packaging that complements your products and adds a luxurious feel to your brand.
Mail containers and e-commerce names
A damaged mailer often prompts a return or refund request, so e-commerce brands need a box built to get through the courier network intact.
What’s in addition, bespoke packaging makes opening your order a a memorable unboxing experience!
Turning an opportunity into customer loyalty and, on occasion, complimentary online advertising!
Keeping all reorder consistently
We manage each reorder precisely as we do a first order, using the same named contact, unchanged proofing procedure, and board and ink from the suppliers used before.
As your order gets larger, the unit cost decreases, with savings already reflected in the price, so there is no discount code to remember!
This pricing approach applies in the same way to twenty boxes, several thousand replenished during a quarter, or a pallet secured for bulk delivery.
A matched reorder procured from another supplier receives identical proofing and quality checks as a new design.
No item is accepted solely because it is designed to resemble something you already had.
Sustainable procurement from our leading packaging location
Each box we create is 100% recyclable, helping cut down on plastic and landfill waste.
We will not introduce laminate just for a glossy finish if it makes a box more difficult to recycle, and we are reducing our use of single use plastic and EPS foam throughout the range.
If a sustainability claim must withstand a procurement audit, we are pleased to talk it through in person or by telephone.
How modifying or initiating operates
Contact us with an approximate description of what you need to pack, where you are located in Bristol, the quantity required, and whether we need to match an existing supplier.
Take advantage of our free samples service to request a sample when evaluating new products or checking quality before placing a full order.

Production and delivery usually take two to three weeks, while the majority of UK and Bristol addresses get their orders within one to two working days after dispatch.
