Regardless of your packaging requirements, from a single sample to a complete range of products for an ongoing account, one factory and one team manage everything.
Your artwork remains safely with us, your colours retain their true appearance from the first order through the tenth, and we talk candidly whenever a deadline is especially tight.
One named contact manages your enquiry, production and delivery, from your initial sample through to a reorder two years later. Your spec stays the same because the same person manages the entire process.
For a packaging supplier designed to grow alongside your business, get in touch with the welcoming team at Custom Pack Studio now.
How packing transforms when it turns into a ongoing supplier alliance
An first order largely involves the box itself, including whether it is the right fit, prints well, and arrives as scheduled.
A relationship with a supplier shows its worth on the sixth order, when an equivalent product requires matching colour and fit, without the need for you to restate the specification from the beginning.
We manage board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, making sure colour and wall thickness remain uniform from your first order through every reorder.
The professional quoting your job also runs it on the press.
If anything about a reorder requires clarification, speak to them directly for a straightforward, honest response.
Here’s Why Caversham businesses prefer Our packing solutions
No minimum order on every article
We do not require a minimum order on any product we produce, so one sample and a reorder of five hundred units follow identical procedures.
We don’t need a minimum volume before taking on your job, nor do we add an extra charge simply because your order is limited.
This means, we grow alongside your Caversham enterprise.
Whenever you are ready to grow your business or product line, we will be right beside you throughout the entire course of your journey!
One assigned contact from enquiry to delivery
One dedicated contact remains with your account from the initial enquiry to delivery, so your requirements is already known when you are ready to place another order.
You will not be passed between departments or made to explain the job again to someone new whenever you call.
Generations of domestic fabrication
Our wider company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has managed printing presses in the UK since 1997.
That history means the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are established contacts built over decades, not new sources identified for each incoming job.
We blend 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.
Shipping shaped according to your Caversham company
Wherever your business is based in the country, we deliver everything from one sample to a full pallet!
Our collection operation picks up from the same factory in Irvine on a set schedule, regardless of the size of the order or delivery destination in Caversham.
Whether you need one box couriered for approval or several pallets scheduled around a launch date, one uniform logistics process handles everything, so delivery continues without change as your order grows.
Bespoke Designs Developed Focussed on Your Item
Some products do not sit within a standard box.
If your item has an unusual shape or difficult dimension, we design the structure to fit it exactly. Components needing to be separated for transit are integrated into the structure, rather than fitted later.
Our design team assesses your actual product rather than using only a specification sheet. An initial sample checks fit and function before production in full starts.
If the die cut requires refinement, we revise it and send another sample instead of producing a batch that fails to work.
Packaging goods from Custom Pack Workshop
All packaging in our collection is manufactured in our own factory, meaning the finish selected from a sample is exactly the finish supplied for an order of five hundred.
Whether it is custom packaging for a single product line or the accessories that complete an order, it is all produced on one production line.
Parcels and packages
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes suit various retail and product packaging, with every panel printed so branding remains visible wherever containers are positioned.
For jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid does much of the selling before it is even opened.
The standard of the board and the precision of its die cut are equally important here as the printing itself.
Recycled postal packets and shipping packaging
Postal mailer boxes are designed to match your product’s dimensions rather than a standard size, reducing the need for void fill and reducing damage caused by a poorly fitting box in transit.
For bulkier or heavier items, we manufacture full colour corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons, while printed inserts keep the contents safely cushioned inside.
A gusseted box increases in size to hold multiple items in one order, making it appropriate for a subscription box or bundle deal whose contents differ each month.
Packaging for the field
Our high-quality packaging is perfect for a wide variety of products and industries!
Meal packaging essentials
We have BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, which is generally the first requirement food packaging customers enquire about, from smaller bakeries to wholesale suppliers expanding into retail.
Food and drink packaging is subject to our strictest requirements, because safety during contact with the product comes before the box’s appearance.
Luxury field
For jewellery and cosmetics, a bespoke insert or foam recess keeps items from moving during transit, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination reflect the product within.
We produce packaging designs that enhance your items, providing your brand a distinctly luxurious feel.
Mail lockers & online shopping names
When a mailer reaches its destination crushed, it often leads to a return or refund request, making durable packaging important for ecommerce brands managing courier networks.
Moreover, tailored packaging transforms opening the parcel into a lasting unboxing experience.
Turning an opportunity into customer loyalty and, at times, free online advertising!
Maintaining every reshuffle standardised
We handle every reorder as we would a first order, keeping the same named contact and proofing process, while sourcing the board and ink from the same suppliers as previously.
As your order grows, the per-unit price goes down, with the saving built into the pricing rather than relying on a discount code.
The same rates applies to twenty boxes, a few thousand replenished during a quarter, or a pallet secured 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 brand-new design.
Everything is evaluated separately, even when designed to look like something you owned before.
Eco-friendly sourcing from our flagship packaging location
Every box we make is fully recyclable, helping to 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 you require a sustainability claim to withstand procurement audit scrutiny, we would be delighted to talk it through with you in person or over the telephone.
