Sustainable Packaging for Small Businesses
Packaging Supplier Christchurch

From a one-off sample to a complete range of packaging products for an ongoing account, one factory and one dedicated team handle everything in one place.

We keep your artwork, match your colours as accurately on the tenth reorder as on the first, and speak honestly to you when a deadline is tight.

A dedicated contact oversees your request, manufacturing and delivery, from the first sample to a reorder two years later. Because they remain involved, the specification stays the same.

For a packaging supplier built to grow with your business, speak to the helpful team at Custom Pack Studio today.

How packaging shifts when it develops into a long-term supplier partnership

Once that first order arrives, the focus shifts to the box: its fit, its print quality, and whether it reaches you by the expected time.

A supplier relationship becomes important on order six, when the same product needs the same colour and fit, without you needing to explain the specification again from the start.

We oversee board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, making sure colour and wall thickness stay consistent from your first order through every reorder.

The team member putting together your quotation is also the one who manages your job on the press.

Should a reorder require clarification, they are the person to contact directly for a straightforward, genuine answer.

Reasons Christchurch businesses prefer Our packaging solutions

Absolutely no minimum order on all item

We do not impose a minimum order for anything we produce, so one sample and a five hundred unit reorder are handled through the same process.

We do not need a minimum quantity before taking on your work, nor do we apply an additional charge simply because the order is small.

This indicates we expand alongside your Christchurch enterprise.

Whenever you are ready to develop your business or product line, we will be alongside you throughout the entire course of your journey!

A single named liaison from question to completion

The same dedicated personal contact manages your account from your initial enquiry through to delivery, already knowing your specification when you are ready to place another order.

You work with one regular team, so you do not have to repeat the job to a new person when you call.

Generations of in-house manufacturing

Our parent company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has managed printing presses in the UK from 1997.

That history means the board and ink suppliers working on your order are established contacts developed over decades, not new sources identified for each incoming job.

As we ready the ink and maintain our own board stock, your colour match is not dependent on an external printer’s interpretation of your brief.

The facility produces exactly what is signed off on the proof.

Despatch bespoke according to your Christchurch operation

We deliver nationwide to your business, whether you need one sample or a full pallet.

Each order is collected by our delivery service from the Irvine factory according to a single schedule, irrespective of its size or destination in Christchurch.

Whether you want a single box submitted for approval or multiple pallets planned around a launch date, the same logistics process covers both, so that delivery continues in the same way as the order grows.

Personalised designs tailored for your item.

Not each product is suitable to a regular box.

If yours has an irregular shape or difficult dimensions, we create the structure to fit it perfectly. Components that require separation during transit receive the same careful treatment, incorporated into the structure from the beginning rather than added later.

Our design experts review your physical product rather than depending entirely on a specification sheet. An first sample confirms fit and performance before any item proceeds to full production.

If the die cut needs modification, we modify it and provide another sample rather than producing an unsuitable batch.

Luminae Packaging - Custom Pack Studio

Packaging products from Custom Pack Studio

All packaging within our collection is made in our own factory, ensuring the finish selected from a sample is exactly the finish supplied for an order of five hundred.

From bespoke packaging for a single product line to the accessories that complete each order, everything is made on a single production line.

Crates and cartons

Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes accommodate numerous retail and product packaging needs, with every panel printed to keep your branding noticeable wherever the container sits on a shelf.

When it comes to jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid does much of the selling before it is even opened.

Here, quality board and an exact die cut are just as important as the printing itself.

Cardboard envelopes and shipping packaging

Postal mailer boxes are made to suit your product’s dimensions, reducing void fill and helping to prevent the damage a poorly fitted box can cause in transit.

For bulkier or bigger items, we make full colour corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons, while printed inserts shield and cushion their contents.

A gusseted box expands to accommodate multiple items in one order, making it suitable for subscription boxes or bundle deals whose contents vary monthly.

Packing personalised to the field

Our top-tier packaging is meticulously designed to protect products across a wide range of industries.

Gourmet packing equipment

Our BRC Global Packaging certification covers the High Hygiene level. It is typically the first assurance food packaging customers look for, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers moving into retail.

Food and drink packaging is held to the most stringent requirements of all the categories we supply, because product contact safety outweighs the box’s visual appeal.

Elite level sector

For jewellery and cosmetics, a fitted insert or foam cavity keeps each product safely during transit, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination echo the contents.

We assist with designing packaging that enhances your items and gives your brand a luxurious feel.

Post lockers alongside internet retail names

A crushed mailer often leads to a return or refund request, so e-commerce brands need a box designed to survive the courier network intact.

What’s in addition, bespoke packaging turns opening your order into a lasting unboxing experience!

Transforming an opening into loyal customers and, occasionally, complimentary online advertising.

Maintaining every reorder in cohesion

When a reorder is received, we treat 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.

The unit cost falls as the size of the order grows, with those price reductions already included in the price rather than depending on a discount code you must remember to apply.

This pricing approach is applicable whether you need twenty boxes, several thousand restocked within a quarter, or a pallet secured for bulk delivery.

A matching reorder supplied by another supplier undergoes the same proofing and quality checks as a brand-new design.

No item is approved without careful review merely because it is intended to imitate something you already owned.

Eco-friendly procurement from our first-class packaging plant

Every box we make is 100% recyclable, helping to reduce plastic and landfill waste.

We will not add laminate just to create a glossy finish if this makes a box more difficult to recycle, and we are discontinuing single use plastic and EPS foam throughout the range.

If a sustainability statement need reviewing during a procurement audit, we would be happy to review it with you in person or over the telephone.

How adapting versus beginning performs

Please get in touch with us with an approximate outline of the items you need packed, your location in Christchurch, the amount required, and whether an existing supplier must be matched.

If you are looking into new products or simply want to evaluate their quality before placing a full order, request a sample through our free samples service.

Approve the proof after our team completes the artwork, follows any existing specification and sets out the pricing in writing.

Production and delivery typically take two to three weeks, while the majority of UK and Christchurch addresses receive deliveries within one to two working days following dispatch.

Reorder as required through the same named contact, using the specification held on file.

Provide an approximate description of your packing needs and quantity required by telephone, or start designing with our online design tool before ordering. We will quickly provide a written quotation, with no requirement to proceed.

A free sample comes with your initial order, and again when an existing account moves over to us. Better still, whoever puts together your quotation will be the same person managing your account two years later.
