Sustainable Packaging for Small Businesses
Packaging Supplier Felixstowe

Regardless of your packaging needs, from one sample to a full range of products for an ongoing account, are handled by one factory and one dedicated team.

We retain your artwork in our records, match colours on your tenth reorder with the same accuracy as on the first, and communicate clearly when deadlines are tight.

From your first sample to a reorder two years later, one dedicated contact oversees your enquiry, production and delivery. The specification remains unchanged because the same person remains at the helm.

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

What changes arise when wrapping becomes a sustained supplier association with Felixstowe?

A initial order mainly assesses the box itself: whether it is the right fit, prints correctly and arrives as scheduled.

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

Because we handle board stock and ink mixing within our own factory, your colour and wall thickness stay uniform from the first order through every reorder that follows.

The person producing your quote will likewise run your job on the press.

When a reorder requires clarification, they are the person to speak to directly for a genuine answer.

Why Felixstowe-owned businesses choose our packing solutions

No minimum order on every article

We do not impose a minimum order requirement for anything we produce, meaning one sample and a five hundred unit reorder follow the same process.

We don’t need a minimum volume before taking on your job, nor do we apply an additional charge simply because your order is small.

This shows we expand in step with your Felixstowe company.

Once you are ready to expand your business or product line, we will guide you along your journey.

A dedicated contact, starting from enquiry up to delivery

A single dedicated contact oversees your account from initial enquiry through to delivery and is familiar with your specification when you are ready to order again.

You are never moved between departments or required to outline the job again to a new member of the team whenever you telephone.

Numerous eras of internal manufacturing

Our holding company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has operated presses in the UK since 1997.

That heritage means the board and ink suppliers helping with your order reflect relationships built over decades, rather than sources newly identified for each distinct commission.

As we mix ink and hold board stock in house, colour matching never depends on a third party printer understanding your brief.

What you approve in the proof is precisely what leaves the factory!

Shipping shaped to suit your Felixstowe company

We ship across the country, regardless of where your business is based, from a single sample to a full pallet.

Our delivery service collects from the same facility in Irvine following a set schedule, regardless of order size or location within Felixstowe.

Whether you require one box couriered for approval or several pallets planned around a launch date, the same logistics process manages everything, ensuring delivery remains unchanged as the order grows.

Bespoke Solutions Crafted Around Your Item

Some products do not sit within a standard box.

When yours has an uncommon shape or challenging dimensions, we design the structure to fit around it. Components that require separation during transit are treated with the same care, being built into the structure instead of being added later.

Our team of designers works directly with your actual product rather than depending entirely on a spec sheet. The first sample assesses fit and function before complete production starts.

If the die cut needs refining, we update it and send a second sample instead of producing a batch that does not meet requirements.

Luminae Packaging - Custom Pack Studio

Packaging goods by Custom Pack Studio

All packaging from our collection is manufactured in our own factory, meaning the finish approved on the basis of a sample is precisely the finish supplied for an order of five hundred.

From custom packaging created for a single product line to the accessories that finish each order, everything emerges from one production line.

Containers and packages

Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes work well for a wide range of retail and product packaging, with printing on every panel to keep your branding visible regardless of how the container is positioned on a shelf.

For jewellery and gift-giving, a rigid box with magnetic closure or a foil stamped lid performs much of the selling before being opened.

The quality of the board material and the accuracy of the die cut are just as important as the print itself.

Corrugated mailing packs and delivery packaging

Postal mailer boxes are customised to your product’s dimensions, reducing void fill and avoiding the damage an ill fitting box can cause in transit.

For larger or heavier products, we produce corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, whilst printed inserts safeguard the contents within.

A gusseted box folds out to accommodate multiple items in one order, making it well suited for a subscription box or bundle whose contents change each month.

Packaging personalised to the area

Our premium packaging is created to accommodate a broad selection of products across numerous industries.

Edible packaging goods

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.

Across every category we supply, food and drink packaging demands the greatest care, because safety where packaging meets the product must always take priority over the box’s appearance.

Upscale field

For jewellery and cosmetics, a tailored insert or foam recess prevents movement in transit, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination complement the product within.

We produce packaging that enhances your items and provides your brand a premium feel.

Parcel containers for internet companies

A squashed mailer often results in a return or refund request, so e-commerce brands need a box made to survive the courier network intact.

Tailored packaging also provides a memorable unboxing experience.

Turning an opening into customer loyalty and, at times, complimentary online advertising.

Sustaining every reorganisation reliably

We handle every reorder as we would a first order, keeping the same named contact and proofing process, while obtaining the board and ink from the same suppliers as previously.

As your order increases in size, the lower unit cost is shown directly in the quoted price, so there is no discount code to keep in mind.

This pricing approach covers equally twenty boxes, several thousand replenished during a quarter, or a pallet secured for bulk delivery.

A matched reorder from a different supplier undergoes the same proofing process and quality checks as a completely new design.

No article passes inspection merely because it appears similar to something you already own.

Sustainable procurement from our leading packaging site

Each box we create is completely recyclable, supporting efforts to reduce plastic and landfill waste.

We will not add laminate solely for a glossy finish if doing so makes a box harder to recycle, and we are reducing our use of single use plastic and EPS foam across the range.

If your sustainability claim must withstand a procurement audit, we would be pleased to discuss it with you in person or over the phone.

How modifying or starting happens

Reach out to us with an rough description of what you need to pack, your location in Felixstowe, the required quantity, and whether we need to match an existing supplier.

Make use of our free samples service to order a sample when trialling new products or verifying quality before placing a larger order.

Authorise the proof after our team has completed the artwork, matched any existing spec and verified pricing in writing.

Production and delivery normally take two to three weeks, while the majority of UK and Felixstowe addresses are reached within one to two working days following dispatch.

Whenever required, place another order through the same named contact, using the specification already held on file.
