Whatever your packaging requirements, from one sample to a complete range of products for an ongoing account, one factory and one team oversee it all.
We keep your artwork, match your colours as accurately on the tenth reorder as on the first, and tell you frankly when a deadline is challenging.
One dedicated contact manages your enquiry, production and delivery, from the initial sample through to a reorder two years later. Your spec remains unchanged because the same person oversees everything.

What kind of differences take place when packaging becomes an continuous supplier relationship with Frome
Once that first order comes in, attention turns to the box: its fit, its print quality, and whether it gets to you on time.
A relationship with a supplier earns trust by order six, when an identical product needs the same colour and fit, without needing the specification again.
We manage board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, making sure colour and wall thickness remain uniform from your initial order through all later reorders.
The person putting together your quotation will also handle your job on the press.
If something about a reorder needs explaining, speak to them directly for a clear, genuine answer.
Reasons Frome businesses opt for our packaging services
Absolutely no minimum order on all item
We do not impose a minimum order for anything we produce, meaning a single sample and a five-hundred-unit reorder follow the identical process.
We have no requirement for a minimum order volume, and we don’t add an extra charge solely because your order is limited in size.
This means we develop in step with your Frome company.
When you are ready to grow your business or product line, we will be alongside you throughout every step of your journey!
Just one dedicated point of contact, from initial request to dispatch
The same person remains responsible for your account from your initial enquiry through to delivery, already acquainted with your specifications when you come to reorder.
You are never transferred between departments or expected to explain the job again to a new member of the team whenever you call.
Decades of in-house manufacturing
KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, our parent company, has run printing presses in the UK since 1997.
This history shows the board and ink suppliers working on your order are established over many years partners, developed over decades rather than found afresh for each new job.
Since we prepare our own ink and maintain board stock, colour matching doesn’t rely on a third party printer deciphering your brief.
The facility manufactures exactly what is approved on the proof.
Distribution customised to your Frome organisation
Wherever your business calls its base across the country, we supply from one sample to a full pallet.
Our delivery service collects from the same facility in Irvine according to a consistent schedule, regardless of the size of the order or destination within Frome.
Whether you require one box sent for approval or several pallets scheduled around a launch date, one reliable logistics process manages everything, so delivery stays consistent as your order expands.
Tailor Made Blueprints Built To Suit Your Goods
Not every product is suitable to a regular box.
When yours has an unusual shape or difficult dimensions, we design the structure to work around it. Components requiring separation during transit are given the same consideration, being built into the structure instead of being added afterwards.
Your actual product is where our design process starts, instead of a specification sheet alone. Before full production begins, a initial sample confirms its fit and function.
If the die cut requires refinement, we revise it and provide a second sample instead of producing a batch that is unsuccessful.
Packing goods from Custom Packaging Studio
Every item of packaging in our range 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.
All items from bespoke packaging for one product line to the accessories completing an order is made on one production line.
Cases and packages
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes suit a wide range of retail and product packaging, with printing on every panel to ensure your branding visible regardless of how the container is arranged on a shelf.
For gifts and jewellery, a rigid box featuring magnetic closure or a foil stamped lid starts selling the product before it has even been opened.
High-quality board material and precise die cutting are every bit as important here as the printing itself.
Cardboard envelopes and shipping packaging
Postal mailer boxes are produced to fit your product’s exact dimensions, cutting down on void fill and preventing the damage that an unsuitable box may cause during transit.
For bigger or heavier products, we manufacture corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, while printed inserts safeguard the contents within.
A gusseted box expands to fit multiple items in one order, making it ideal for a subscription box or bundle deal with contents that change each month.
Containers adapted to each sector
Our premium packaging is suitable for a wide range of products across many industries.
Edible packaging substances
Our BRC Global Packaging certification covers the High Hygiene level. It is typically the initial assurance food packaging customers seek, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers expanding into retail.
Of every category we provide, food and drink packaging is governed by the strictest requirements, as maintaining safe contact with the product takes priority over the box’s visual appeal.
Upscale market
For jewellery and cosmetics, a fitted insert or foam cavity keeps each product securely during transit, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination complement the contents.
We help you in designing packaging that suits your goods, creating a luxurious feel for your company.
Parcel box for internet labels
A mailer arriving crushed commonly prompts a request for a return or refund, so e-commerce brands need a box built to endure the courier network and reach its destination intact.
Moreover, tailored packaging transforms opening the parcel into a lasting unboxing experience.
Converting an opening into customer loyalty and, occasionally, unpaid online advertising!
Maintaining every reorder steady
We handle each reorder in exactly the same way as a first order, using the same designated contact, identical proofing procedure, and board and ink from the suppliers used previously.
As your order becomes larger, the reduced unit cost is reflected directly in the quoted price, so there is no discount code to keep in mind.
The identical pricing structure is applicable to twenty boxes, several thousand replenished within a quarter, and even a pallet secured for bulk delivery.
Even when reordering a matched item from a different supplier, we carry out the same proofing and quality checks needed for a completely new design.
Nothing is accepted without examination simply because it is intended to look like something you already had.
Eco-friendly procurement from our premier packaging facility
Each box we produce is entirely recyclable, helping to reduce plastic and landfill waste.
We will not introduce laminate solely for a glossy finish if it makes a box harder to recycle, and we are moving away from single use plastic and EPS foam throughout the range.
Should your sustainability claim need to withstand a procurement audit, we would be pleased to talk it through with you in person or by phone.
How switching or commencing functions
