From one sample to a complete packaging range for a long-term account, one factory and team manage every requirement.
We keep your artwork on file, see that colour matching remains consistent between the first and tenth orders, and tell you frankly when a deadline is especially demanding.
One named contact handles your enquiry, production and delivery, from your initial sample through to a further order two years later. Your spec stays the same because the same person oversees everything.

How the packing shifts when it develops into a continuing provider relationship
An initial order mainly concerns the box itself: whether its size is suitable, whether it produces a clear print, and whether it is delivered promptly.
A supplier relationship shows its worth on the sixth order, when an equivalent product calls for matching colour and fit, without requiring you to restate the specification from the beginning.
By handling 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 team member putting together your quotation is also the one who runs your job on the press.
Should a repeat order require further explanation, they are the person to speak to directly for a clear, genuine answer.
Reasons Great Bookham businesses pick our company’s packaging offerings
Zero minimum purchase on any item
We have no minimum order requirement on all products we make, so one sample and a reorder of five hundred units go through the same procedures.
We do not require a minimum volume before taking on your work, nor do we apply an additional charge simply because the order is limited in size.
This means we grow alongside your Great Bookham company.
When you are ready to develop your business or broaden your product range, we will support you at each stage of the process.
One dedicated contact right from enquiry to delivery
A single designated contact oversees your account from the initial enquiry to delivery, retaining a clear understanding of your specification when you are prepared to place another order.
You are not passed around between departments or asked to explain the job again to someone new each time you call.
Countless eras of onsite manufacturing
Our holding company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has operated presses in the UK from 1997.
That history means the board and ink suppliers supporting your order represent relationships built over decades, rather than sources newly found for every separate commission.
We mix our own ink and maintain board stock ourselves, so colour matching never depends on a third-party printer understanding your brief.
The facility produces precisely what is approved on the proof.
Supply customised for your Great Bookham enterprise
We provide delivery throughout the country, wherever your business is based, whether you need one sample or a complete pallet.
In Great Bookham, our delivery service follows the same schedule from the same Irvine factory, whatever the order size or destination.
Whether you require one box sent for approval or several pallets arranged around a launch date, the same logistics process handles everything, ensuring delivery remains unchanged as the order grows.
Bespoke creations created for your item
Certain products fall outside the size of a regular box.
If yours has an atypical shape or awkward dimensions, we plan the structure to fit it precisely. Components requiring separation during transit receive the same careful treatment, integrated into the structure from the beginning rather than introduced later.
Our design team evaluates your actual product rather than depending entirely on a specification sheet. An initial sample confirms fit and function before complete production begins.
If the die cut requires refinement, we refine it and send another sample instead of producing a batch that is unsuitable.
Packaging items from Custom Pack Studio
Every item in our packaging range is manufactured at our own factory, so the finish approved on your sample is precisely what you receive when ordering five hundred.
From tailored packaging for a single product line to the accessories that finish each order, everything is made on a single production line.
Packages and packing boxes
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes meet a wide range of retail and product packaging needs, with each panel printed to keep your branding noticeable wherever the container rests on a shelf.
For jewellery and gifting, a rigid box featuring magnetic closure or a foil stamped lid starts presenting the product prior to being opened.
The quality of the board material and the precision of the die cut are equally important as the print itself.
Paperboard mail parcels and shipping packaging
Postal mailer boxes are made to match your product’s dimensions rather than a standard size, minimising the need for void fill and reducing damage caused by a poorly fitting box during transit.
For bigger or heavier items, we create corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in complete colour, while printed inserts offer cushioning for the contents.
A gusseted box expands to accommodate several items in one order, making it well suited for subscription boxes or bundle deals whose contents change each month.
Packaging designed to your own sector
Our high-quality packaging is well suited for a broad range of products and industries!
Gourmet wrapping materials
We maintain BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, frequently being the first assurance our food packaging customers seek, from small bakeries to wholesale suppliers moving into retail.
Of every category we offer, food and drink packaging is governed by the strictest requirements, as ensuring safe contact with the product takes priority over the box’s appearance.
High-end sector
For jewellery and cosmetics, a customised insert or foam cavity keeps products safe during transit, while foil stamping or soft touch lamination echoes the contents.
We help design packaging that suits your items and provides your brand a high-end feel.
Mail parcels and online business labels
When a mailer reaches its destination crushed, it typically suggests a request for a return or refund, leaving online brands seeking packaging sturdy enough to emerge whole from the delivery network.
In addition, custom-made packaging transforms opening the parcel into a lasting unboxing experience.
Converting an opening into customer loyalty and, at times, complimentary online advertising.
Maintaining every re-arrangement uniform
Your repeat order receives exactly the same treatment as your first order. That includes the same named contact, identical proofing process, and board and ink supplied by the same suppliers as before.
As your order increases in size, the reduced unit cost is reflected directly in the quoted price, so there is no discount code to keep in mind.
The same pricing model applies to twenty boxes, several thousand restocked within a quarter, and even a pallet secured for bulk delivery.
A matched reorder from a different supplier goes through the same proofing process and quality checks as a completely new design.
Nothing gets approved automatically merely because it is similar to something you already had!
Green sourcing from our leading packaging plant
Each box we manufacture is fully recyclable, helping to minimise both plastic waste and landfill waste.
We will not add laminate only to create a glossy finish if doing so makes a box harder to recycle, and we are discontinuing single use plastic and EPS foam throughout the range.
If a sustainability statement need reviewing during a procurement audit, we would be happy to review it with you face to face or by telephone.
