Whatever your packaging requirements, from a single sample to a full range of products for a ongoing account, are overseen by one factory and one dedicated team.
We retain your artwork, replicate your colours with the same accuracy on the tenth reorder as on the first, and speak honestly to you when a deadline is demanding.
A one named contact handles your enquiry, production and delivery, from the initial sample through to a reorder two years later. The spec stays the same because the same person continues to be responsible.
For a packaging supplier designed to grow alongside your business, contact the friendly team at Custom Pack Studio today.
Which differs when packaging develops into an ongoing provider partnership?
A first order is really about the box itself: will it fit, print well and arrive on time?
A working relationship with a supplier is demonstrated on order six, when the same product requires the same colour and fit, without asking you to explain the specification again from the beginning.
We manage board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, helping to keep colour and wall thickness the same from your first order to every reorder.
The professional pricing your job also runs it on the press.
Whenever a reorder calls for clarity, they are the person you contact directly, prepared with a straightforward answer.
Why Gorleston-on-Sea-owned businesses opt for the packaging packages
No minimum spend on each listing
We do not require a minimum order on any product we make, so one sample and a reorder of five hundred units go through the same procedures.
We do not require a minimum volume to take on your job, and small orders never attract an additional charge.
This shows we grow along with your Gorleston-on-Sea business.
As soon as you are ready to grow your business or product line, we will be by your side throughout each stage of your journey!
Just one designated contact from enquiry to fulfilment
The same person continues handling your account from initial enquiry to delivery, already familiar with your specifications when it is time to reorder.
You will not be passed between departments or left having to explain the job again to someone new each time you call.
Decades of domestic fabrication
Our holding company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has been operating presses in the UK since 1997.
That heritage means the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are reliable partners developed over decades, rather than new sources found for every incoming job.
As we blend ink and maintain our own board stock, colour matching is not dependent on a third party printer understanding your brief.
The facility produces precisely what is signed off on the proof.
Distribution customised to your Gorleston-on-Sea company
Wherever your business is based in the country, we deliver everything from one sample to a full pallet!
Each order is collected by our delivery service from the Irvine factory under a single schedule, regardless of its size or destination in Gorleston-on-Sea.
Whether one box must be couriered for sign-off or several pallets need arranging around a launch date, one single logistics process handles everything, ensuring delivery stays the same as the order expands.
Custom designs created to complement your offering
A number of products simply do not sit into a standard box.
Where yours has an irregular shape or awkward dimensions, we design the structure around it. Components needing separation during transit receive the same considered approach, with their protection integrated into the structure from the outset rather than attached afterwards.
Our design team evaluates your real product rather than relying solely on a specification sheet. An early sample assesses fit and function before any unit enters full production.
If the die cut needs altering, we adjust it and provide another sample rather than making an unsuitable batch.
Packing goods from Custom Packaging Studio
Every item of packaging in our range is manufactured at our own site, meaning the finish accepted on your sample is identical to that supplied in an order of five hundred.
From tailor-made packaging for one product line to the accessories completing an order, everything is produced on one production line.
Cartons and containers
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes meet numerous retail and product packaging needs, with each panel printed to keep your branding in view wherever the container rests on a shelf.
For jewellery and gift-giving, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid begins selling the product before it is even opened.
The quality of the board and the precision of its die cut are just as important here as the printing itself.
Corrugated mailers & delivery packaging
Postal mailer boxes are designed to fit your goods, rather than a generic size, cutting down on wasted space and damage caused in transit by a ill-fitting box.
For heavier items, we create corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, while printed inserts cushion the contents.
A gusseted box increases in size to hold multiple items in one order, making it appropriate for a subscription box or bundle deal whose contents change each month.
Packaging adapted to any industry
Our reliable packaging is suitable for numerous products across a range of industries.
Cuisine packaging substances
We have High Hygiene BRC Global Packaging certification, frequently the first detail food packaging customers ask about, from small bakeries to wholesale suppliers expanding into retail.
Across every category we supply, food and drink packaging demands the highest level of care, because safety where packaging meets the product must always come before the box’s appearance.
Elite level sector
For jewellery and cosmetics, a bespoke insert or foam recess stops movement in transit, while finishes including foil stamping or soft touch lamination reflect the product within.
We support you in creating packaging that enhances your products, adding a upmarket feel for your company.
Post boxes and internet retail companies
A squashed mailer frequently leads to a request for a return or refund, making hard-wearing packaging essential for e commerce brands that need boxes to endure the courier network and remain undamaged on arrival.
Furthermore, custom-made packaging makes the opening of your order memorable.
Converting an opening into customer loyalty and, on occasion, complimentary online advertising.
Maintaining each reshuffle uniformly
Your repeat order receives exactly the same treatment as your first order. That means the same named contact, identical proofing process, and board and ink supplied by the same suppliers as before.
As your order grows, the unit cost drops, with savings included in the price, so there is no discount code to keep track of!
This pricing model applies in the same way to twenty boxes, several thousand restocked during a quarter, or a pallet secured for bulk delivery.
Even when ordering again a matched item from another supplier, we carry out the same proofing and quality checks needed for a brand-new design.
No item gets approved automatically just because it looks like something you already had!
Environmentally responsible sourcing from our premier packaging facility
Each box we make is entirely recyclable, helping to limit plastic and landfill waste.
We will not add laminate solely for a shiny finish if it makes a box more difficult to recycle, and we are moving away from single use plastic and EPS foam across the range.
If a sustainability statement require scrutiny during a procurement audit, we would be happy to discuss it with you either face to face or by telephone.
