Whatever your packaging requirements, from one sample to a complete range of products for an ongoing account, one factory and one team handle everything.
We hold your artwork on file, match your colours on your tenth reorder as we did on the first, and tell you honestly when a deadline is tight.
From your first sample to a reorder two years afterwards, one named contact oversees your enquiry, production and delivery. The specification stays the same because the same person remains at the helm.

How do changes arise when wrapping becomes an sustained supplier relationship with Crowborough
An initial order generally considers the box in question: whether it fits as intended, prints effectively and is delivered on time.
A supplier relationship is proven on order six, when the same product calls for the same colour and fit, without requiring you to restate the specification once more from scratch.
We manage board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, ensuring colour and wall thickness remain consistent from your first order through all later reorders.
The team member preparing your quotation will as well operate your job on the press.
If something about a reorder requires clarification, contact them directly for a clear, genuine answer.
Why Crowborough-based companies choose the packaging solutions
There is no minimum purchase on all items.
We do not impose a minimum order for anything we produce, meaning one sample and a five-hundred-unit reorder follow the same process.
We do not require a minimum volume before taking on your job, nor do we apply an additional charge simply because your order is limited.
This means we expand in step with your Crowborough company.
When you are ready to develop your business or product line, we will support you along your journey.
A exclusive contact, from enquiry up to delivery
The same dedicated personal contact looks after your account from initial enquiry through to delivery, already being familiar with your specification when you are ready to order again.
You will not be transferred between departments or made to explain the job again to someone new when you ring.
Several eras of onsite manufacturing
KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, our parent company, has operated presses in the UK since 1997.
This track record indicates the board and ink suppliers working on your order are well-established partners, built over decades rather than newly sourced for each new job.
We mix our own ink and keep board stock ourselves, so colour matching never depends on a third-party printer understanding your brief.
The edition signed off on the proof is the same as what leaves the factory.
Delivery tailored to the needs of your Crowborough enterprise
No matter where your business is located in the country, we send out everything from one sample to a complete pallet!
Every delivery is collected from the same Irvine factory according to the same regular schedule, whatever the size of the order or delivery destination in Crowborough.
Whether you need one box couriered for approval or several pallets scheduled around a launch date, one uniform logistics process handles everything, so delivery remains unchanged as your order grows.
Tailored designs created to suit your item
Not each product is suitable to a typical box.
When yours presents an distinctive shape or challenging dimension, we shape the structure to embrace it. Components requiring separation during transit are incorporated within it, never fitted later.
Our design department collaborates directly with your actual product rather than using only a spec sheet. The first sample checks fit and function before production gets under way.
If the die cut requires refinement, we adjust it and send another sample instead of making a batch that fails to work.
Wrapping items by Tailor-made Pack Studio
Every item of packaging in our collection is produced within our own factory, ensuring the finish signed off on your sample is precisely the finish delivered with an order of five hundred.
From bespoke packaging for a single product line to the accessories that finish each order, everything is produced on a single production line.
Boxes and packaging cartons
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes suit various retail and product packaging, with each panel printed so branding can be seen wherever containers sit.
For jewellery and gifting, a rigid box featuring magnetic closure or a foil stamped lid starts presenting the product before it has even been opened.
Superior board material and precise die cutting are equally important here as the printing itself.
Cardboard letter parcels and shipping packaging
Postal mailer boxes are tailored to your product’s dimensions, cutting down on void fill and preventing the damage an ill fitting box can cause in transit.
For bigger or heavier products, we produce corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, while printed inserts safeguard the contents within.
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.
Parceling customised to your sector
Our high-quality packaging is meticulously designed to support products across a broad range of industries.
Food packing products
Our BRC Global Packaging certification covers the High Hygiene level. It is typically the initial assurance food packaging customers look for, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers expanding into retail.
Food and drink packaging faces the most demanding requirements across everything we supply, because keeping products safe in contact is far more important than the appearance of the box.
High level industry
When jewellery and cosmetics are transported, a fitted insert or foam cavity keeps each product securely, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination reflect what lies within.
We help design packaging that enhances your items and gives your brand a high-end feel.
Postal boxes and e-commerce names
A damaged mailer can often prompt a request for a return or refund, making hard-wearing packaging important for e commerce brands that require boxes to cope with the courier network and remain undamaged on arrival.
Bespoke packaging also creates a lasting unboxing experience.
Converting an opening into customer loyalty and, sometimes, free online advertising!
Ensuring all re-arrangement steady
We handle 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 previously.
As your order becomes larger, the reduced unit cost is shown directly in the quoted price, so there is no discount code to remember.
That same pricing structure covers twenty boxes, a few thousand restocked within a quarter, and a pallet secured for bulk delivery.
A matched reorder sourced from another supplier goes through identical proofing and quality checks as a new design.
Nothing passes simply because it resembles something you already possessed.
Sustainable sourcing from our top packaging facility
Every box we make is entirely recyclable, helping to cut down on both plastic waste and landfill waste.
We will avoid adding laminate purely for a glossy finish if doing so makes a box more difficult to recycle, and we are moving away from single use plastic and EPS foam across the range.
Should a sustainability claim come under scrutiny in a procurement audit, we would be pleased to talk it through with you in person or by telephone.
How switching or starting operates
Get in touch with us with an outline of what you need packed, your address in Crowborough, the quantity needed, and whether we should match an existing supplier.
