From a single sample to a complete packaging range for a long-term account, one factory and team manage every requirement.
We retain your artwork in our records, match your colours on your tenth reorder as we did on the first, and let you know candidly when a deadline is tight.
From your initial sample to a reorder two years later, one named contact oversees your enquiry, production and delivery. The specification remains unchanged because the same person stays at the helm.

How do differences arise when packing becomes an enduring supplier relationship with Fleet
Once that first order comes in, attention turns to the box: its fit, its print quality, and whether it reaches you on time.
A supplier relationship builds trust by order six, when an identical product needs the same colour and fit, without needing the specification again.
By managing board stock and ink mixing within our own factory, we ensure that colour and wall thickness remain consistent from your first order through every subsequent reorder.
The person who prices your job also prints it on the press.
Questions about a reorder should be directed straight to them for a clear, honest answer.
Why Fleet-branded businesses rely on our packing solutions
There is no minimum quantity on any item.
We do not impose minimum quantities per order on anything we produce, so one sample and a five hundred unit reorder follow precisely the same process.
We do not require a minimum quantity before accepting your job, nor do we add an additional charge simply because your order is limited.
This means we grow with your Fleet business.
When you are ready to grow your business or product line, we will guide you throughout your journey.
A sole designated contact beginning at enquiry to delivery
The same person continues handling your account from initial enquiry to delivery, already acquainted with your specifications when it is time to reorder.
You will not be transferred between departments or made to explain the job again to someone new each time you call.
Several eras of onsite manufacturing
KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, our parent company, has managed printing presses in the UK since 1997.
This background ensures that the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are trusted relationships developed over decades, rather than sourced anew for each new job.
We blend our own ink and keep board stock ourselves, so colour matching never depends on a third-party printer understanding your brief.
The design proof you sign off on is exactly what leaves the production facility.
Despatch adapted to fit your Fleet company
We deliver across the country, regardless of where your business is based, from a single sample to a full pallet.
In Fleet, our delivery service keeps to the same schedule from the same Irvine factory, whatever the order size or destination.
Whether one box must be couriered for approval or multiple pallets need arranging around a launch date, one consistent logistics process handles everything, ensuring delivery remains unchanged as the order grows.
Bespoke Creations Created Focussed on Your Product
Some products do not sit within a standard box.
Where yours has an irregular shape or challenging dimensions, we engineer the structure around it. Components needing separation during transit receive the same considered approach, with their protection built into the structure from the outset rather than fitted afterwards.
Our design professionals assess your physical product rather than using only specifications. An early sample checks fit and operation before any unit moves into full production.
If the die cut requires adjustment, we make the necessary changes and provide a second sample instead of making an unusable batch.
Parceling wares via Custom Pack Studio
All packaging within our collection is made in our own factory, ensuring the finish approved on the basis of a sample is identical to the finish supplied for an order of five hundred.
From tailor-made packaging for one product line to the accessories that finish off every order, everything is made on a one production line.
Containers and boxes
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes are suitable for different retail and product packaging, with each panel printed so branding remains visible wherever containers sit.
When considering jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with magnetic closure or a foil stamped lid begins selling the product before it is even revealed!
In this case, quality board and an exact die cut are just as important as the printing itself.
Corrugated mailers and dispatch packaging
Postal mailer boxes are designed to match your product’s measurements, reducing surplus void fill and reducing the damage that an ill-fitting box may cause during transit.
For larger or heavier items, we make corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in complete colour, while printed inserts offer cushioning for the items inside.
A gusseted box expands to hold multiple items in one order, making it suitable for a subscription box or bundle whose contents vary each month.
Packaging options for the industry
Our high-quality packaging is developed to serve a diverse range of products across various industries.
Cuisine packaging materials
We hold BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, which is often the first assurance our food packaging customers require, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers expanding into retail.
Of all the categories we supply, food and drink packaging demands the highest level of care, because safety where packaging meets the product must always precede the box’s appearance.
Premium end field
For jewellery and cosmetics, a tailored insert or foam recess keeps items from moving in transit, while finishes including foil stamping or soft touch lamination echo the product within.
We support you in creating packaging that enhances your goods, bringing a luxurious feel for your brand.
Postal box alongside e-commerce companies
A crushed mailer can often prompt a return or refund request, making robust packaging essential for e commerce brands that need boxes to endure the courier network and remain undamaged on arrival.
What’s in addition, bespoke packaging makes opening your order a a lasting unboxing experience!
Converting an opening into customer loyalty and, from time to time, unpaid online advertising!
Sustaining each reorganisation constantly
When a reorder comes in, we process it as a first order, retaining the same named contact, following the identical proofing process, and sourcing board and ink from the same suppliers as before.
As your order increases in size, the lower unit cost is shown directly in the quoted price, so there is no discount code to enter.
This pricing approach is applicable whether you require twenty boxes, several thousand restocked within a quarter, or 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 is approved without careful review simply because it is intended to imitate something you already owned.
Environmentally friendly sourcing from our first-class packaging centre
Each box we make is 100% recyclable, helping to reduce plastic and landfill waste.
We won’t introduce laminate solely for a shiny finish if it makes a box harder to recycle, and we are moving away from single use plastic and EPS foam throughout the range.
If you need a sustainability claim to withstand procurement audit scrutiny, we would be pleased to discuss it with you face to face or by telephone.
