Whatever your packaging requirements, from a single sample to a full range of products for an ongoing account, one factory and one team oversee it all.
We keep your artwork securely on file, reproduce 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 named contact oversees your request, manufacturing and dispatch, from the initial sample to a repeat order after two years. Because they remain involved, the specification stays unchanged.
For a packaging supplier designed to grow alongside your business, reach out to the friendly team at Custom Pack Studio today.
How the packaging alters when it becomes a long-term supplier partnership
Once that initial order comes in, attention turns to the box: its fit, its print quality, and whether it gets to you by the expected time.
A supplier relationship shows its value on order six, when the same product requires the same colour and fit, with no need to repeat the specification all over again.
Because we handle board stock and ink mixing inside our own factory, your colour and wall thickness remain uniform from the initial order through every reorder that follows.
The team member quoting your job runs it on the press too!
If any aspect of a reorder requires clarification, you can talk to them directly and receive a straightforward answer.
Why Chelsea-branded businesses rely on our packing solutions
Zero minimum requirement on all product
There is no minimum order requirement for any item we produce, so one sample or a repeat order of five hundred units follows exactly the same process!
We do not need a minimum volume before taking on your work, nor do we apply an additional charge simply because the order is small.
This means that our progress is in line with your Chelsea business.
Whenever you are ready to grow your business or product line, we will be by your side throughout each stage of your journey!
A dedicated contact, beginning with enquiry through to delivery
One consistent contact remains with your account from your first enquiry to delivery, so your specification is already known when you are ready to place another order.
You work with one regular team, so you never have to repeat the job to a new member of the team each time you call.
Generations of inhouse manufacturing
KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, our parent company, has operated presses in the UK since 1997.
That background means the board and ink suppliers working on your order are established contacts developed over decades, not new sources found for each incoming 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 factory produces precisely what is shown on the approved proof.
Shipping tailored to the Chelsea business
We provide delivery across the country, wherever your business is situated, whether you require one sample or a complete pallet.
Our delivery operation gathers orders from the same factory in Irvine on a set schedule, regardless of order size or destination in Chelsea.
Whether a single box requires couriering for approval or several pallets must arrive for a launch date, one logistics process manages both, ensuring delivery remains reliable as orders expand.
Tailor Made Designs Developed Focussed on Your Product
Not every product is well suited to a standard box.
If your item has an unusual shape or challenging dimension, we engineer the structure to fit it precisely. Components needing to be separated during transit are incorporated into the structure, rather than added subsequently.
Our team of designers collaborates directly with your actual product rather than relying solely on a spec sheet. The first sample tests fit and function before production gets under way.
If the die cut needs adjusting, we make the necessary changes and send a second sample instead of making an unusable batch.
Wrapping items from Personalised Pack Studio
All packaging in our range is manufactured at our own factory, ensuring the finish approved on a sample matches the finish supplied in an order of five hundred.
All items from bespoke packaging for one product line to the accessories completing an order is produced on one production line.
Crates and cartons
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes meet many retail packaging requirements. Printing extends across every panel, ensuring the branding remains visible whatever way the container sits on a shelf.
For jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with magnetic closure or a foil stamped lid helps sell the product before it is even opened!
The quality of the board material and precision of the die cutting are just as important as the print itself.
Corrugated mailers and delivery packaging
Postal mailer boxes are made to fit your goods, rather than a standard size, minimising wasted space and damage caused in transit by a ill-fitting box.
For larger or heavier items, we create corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, while printed inserts provide cushioning for the contents.
A gusseted box unfolds to accommodate several items in one order, making it ideal for subscription boxes or bundle deals whose contents differ each month.
Wrapping customised to your field
Our premium packaging is well suited to varied products across many industries.
Catering packaging products
We have High Hygiene BRC Global Packaging certification, often the first aspect food packaging customers ask about, from small bakeries to wholesale suppliers moving into retail.
Packaged products for food and beverages must meet the highest standards of every category we supply, because product contact safety comes before appearance.
Elite division
For cosmetics, a tailored insert or foam recess keeps items secure during transit, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination reflect the product within.
We help you in designing packaging that suits your goods, bringing a luxurious feel for your brand.
Postal cartons for ecommerce brands
When a mailer reaches its destination crushed, it typically suggests a request for a return or refund, leaving online brands seeking packaging robust enough to remain whole from the courier network.
What’s more, bespoke packaging transforms opening your order into a remarkable unboxing experience!
Turning an opening into loyalty from customers and, sometimes, free online advertising!
Keeping every rearrangement uniformly
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 unit cost decreases, with savings included in the price, so there is no discount code to keep track of!
This pricing approach applies equally to twenty boxes, several thousand restocked during a quarter, or a pallet arranged for bulk delivery.
A matched reorder sourced from another supplier receives the same proofing and quality checks as a new design.
Nothing gets through merely because it resembles something you already possessed.
Environmentally conscious acquisition from our flagship packaging location
Every box we produce is entirely recyclable, helping to cut down on both plastic rubbish and waste sent to landfill.
We will not add laminate just to create a glossy finish if doing so makes a box harder to recycle, and we are gradually removing single use plastic and EPS foam across the range.
Should a sustainability statement require scrutiny during a procurement audit, we would be pleased to discuss it with you either in person or by telephone.
How changing or initiating works
Please contact us with an rough outline of what you need to pack, where you are based in Chelsea, the amount required, and whether an existing supplier must be matched.
If you are exploring new products or would like to evaluate their quality before submitting a full order, request a sample through our free samples service.
Approve the proof after our team has prepared the artwork, checked against any existing spec and confirmed pricing in writing.
Production and delivery usually take two to three weeks, while the majority of UK and Chelsea addresses get their orders within one to two working days after dispatch.
As required, reorder through the same named contact using the same specification held on file.
