Whatever your packaging requirements, from one sample to a complete range of products for an ongoing account, one factory and one team handle it all.
We retain your artwork in our records, reproduce your colours on your tenth reorder as we did on the first, and tell you honestly when a deadline is tight.
One sole contact oversees your query, production and delivery, from the first sample to a reorder two years later. The specification stays consistent because the same person handles everything!

What alters when packaging develops into an long-term provider partnership?
An first order usually focuses on the box in question: whether it fits as intended, prints clearly and arrives on schedule.
A relationship with a supplier proves its value on the sixth order, when an identical product calls for matching colour and fit, without making you restate the specification from the beginning.
We manage board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, keeping colour and wall thickness consistent from your first order through every reorder.
The individual preparing your quotation is also the one who manages your job on the press.
Any questions about a reorder go directly to them for a straightforward, genuine answer.
Why Islington businesses opt for our packing solutions
There is no minimum buy on everything.
We do not impose a minimum order for all items we produce, so a single sample and a reorder of five hundred units are handled through the same process.
We have no requirement for a minimum order volume, and we do not add an extra charge just because your order is small.
This ensures our growth remains aligned with your Islington business.
When you feel ready to expand your business or product line, we will support you through every stage of your journey.
Single assigned contact, from enquiry to delivery
The same dedicated contact manages your account from your initial enquiry through to delivery, already understanding your specification when you are ready to order again.
You are never passed between departments, or forced to repeat the details of the job to a new person whenever you call.
Many decades of onsite manufacturing
Our holding company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has run presses in the UK from 1997.
This background indicates the board and ink suppliers working on your order are well-established partners, formed over decades rather than found afresh for each incoming 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 sample you sign off on is exactly what leaves the production facility.
Delivery tailored to your Islington company
We provide delivery nationwide, wherever your business is located, whether you want one sample or a complete pallet.
Our delivery service collects from the same factory in Irvine following a regular schedule, regardless of the size of the order or location within Islington.
Whether you need a single box couriered for approval or multiple pallets arranged for a launch date, one consistent logistics process handles both, ensuring delivery remains unchanged as your order increases.
Bespoke Solutions Crafted Around Your Item
Some products cannot be accommodated within a standard box.
Where your item has an unusual shape or difficult dimension, we design the structure to fit it precisely. Components requiring separation for transit are integrated into the structure, rather than fitted later.
Our design experts assess your physical product rather than depending entirely on specifications. An initial sample confirms fit and operation before any unit enters full production.
If the die cut requires adjustment, we adjust it and provide another sample rather than producing an unsuitable batch.
Wrapping items by Personalised Pack Studio
All packaging in our collection is manufactured at our own facility, ensuring the finish accepted on your sample is consistent with that supplied in an order of five hundred.
From bespoke packaging for a single product line to the accessories that complete each order, everything is produced on one production line.
Crates and cartons
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes are suitable for varied retail and product packaging, with each panel printed so branding stays visible wherever containers sit.
When it comes to jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid does a lot of the selling before it is even opened.
Here, quality board and an exact die cut are equally important as the printing itself.
Cardboard packaging sleeves and delivery packaging
Postal mailer boxes are made to suit your product’s measurements, reducing surplus void fill and reducing the damage that an ill-fitting box may cause during transit.
For more sizeable products, we make corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, while printed inserts support the contents.
A gusseted box opens out to hold multiple items in a single order, making it suitable for subscription boxes or bundle deals whose contents change each month.
Packing solutions for the sector
Our high-quality packaging is meticulously designed to protect products across a diverse range of industries.
Grocery packaging materials
We maintain BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, which is often the first assurance our food packaging customers look for, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers moving into retail.
Food and drink packaging meets our strictest requirements, because safety during contact with the product is more important than the box’s appearance.
Exclusive division
For jewellery and cosmetics, a fitted insert or foam cavity secures each product safely during transit, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination echo the contents.
We assist you in creating packaging that enhances your products and adds a luxurious feel to your brand.
Post containers and online shopping names
When a mailer arrives at its destination crushed, it often results in a return or refund request, making durable packaging essential for ecommerce brands operating across courier networks.
Furthermore, tailored packaging provides a remarkable unboxing experience.
An opening can lead to customer loyalty and, sometimes, free advertising online.
Preserving every reorganisation constantly
We process every reorder as we would a first order, retaining the same named contact and proofing process, while obtaining the board and ink from the same suppliers as previously.
As your order gets larger, the unit cost drops, with savings built into the price, so there is no discount code to recall!
The identical pricing structure covers twenty boxes, several thousand replenished during 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 brand-new design.
No item is accepted without careful review just because it is intended to look like something you already possessed.
Green sourcing from our top packaging facility
Each box we produce is 100% recyclable, contributing to a reduction in plastic and landfill waste.
We will not add laminate solely for a shiny finish if it makes a box harder to recycle. We are also reducing single use plastic and EPS foam throughout the range.
Should a sustainability claim face scrutiny in a procurement audit, we would be pleased to discuss it with you face to face or by telephone.
How altering or commencing duties
Get in touch with us and provide an approximate idea of what you need packed, your location in Islington, the quantity required, and whether we should match an existing supplier.
Use our free samples service to request a sample when evaluating new products or verifying quality before placing a larger order.
Approve the proof after our team prepares the artwork, aligns with any existing spec and verifies pricing in writing.
Production and delivery typically require two to three weeks, while most UK and Islington addresses get their orders within one to two working days after dispatch.
As needed, reorder through the same named contact, using the specification already held on file.
