Whatever your packaging requirements, from one sample to a complete range of products for an ongoing account, one factory and one team manage everything.
We keep your artwork files on file, see that colour matching remains consistent from the first order through to the tenth, and give you honest advice when a deadline is especially tight.
A the same named contact manages 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 stays responsible.

How do differences arise when packaging becomes an long-term supplier relationship with Jarrow
An early order generally considers the box in question: whether it fits properly, prints effectively and is delivered on time.
A supplier relationship gains trust by order six, when an identical product requires the same colour and fit, without requiring the specification again.
By overseeing 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 preparing your quotation is also the one who runs your job on the press.
When a reorder calls for clarity, they are the person you contact directly, ready with a honest answer.
Here’s Why Jarrow businesses select Our packaging solutions
There is no minimum order on any item
We do not impose a minimum order requirement for anything we produce, meaning the same process applies to one sample and a five hundred unit reorder.
We do not require a minimum volume to take on your job, and small orders never attract an additional charge.
This indicates that our development is consistent with your Jarrow business.
When you are prepared to expand your business or widen your product range, we will support you throughout every stage of your journey.
A single identified point of contact from enquiry to delivery
The same dedicated contact handles your account from initial enquiry through to delivery, already knowing your specification when you are ready to place another order.
You are never transferred between departments or asked to explain the job again to someone new whenever you call.
Several generations of onsite manufacturing
KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, the parent company of our business, has operated presses in the UK since 1997.
That history means the board and ink suppliers working on your order are established contacts developed over decades, not new sources identified for each incoming job.
As we prepare ink and hold board stock in house, colour matching never depends on a third party printer understanding your brief.
The facility manufactures exactly what is signed off on the proof.
Delivery tailored around your Jarrow enterprise
We deliver nationwide, regardless of where your business is located, from a one sample to a full pallet.
Each order is collected by our delivery service from the Irvine factory according to a single schedule, regardless of its size or destination in Jarrow.
Whether you require one box couriered for approval or several pallets scheduled around a launch date, one uniform logistics process manages everything, so delivery stays consistent as your order grows.
Bespoke designs made to complement your goods
Not every product is suited to a standard box.
When yours has an unusual shape or challenging dimension, we shape the structure to accommodate it. Components requiring separation during transit are integrated within it, never added later.
Our design team collaborates directly with your actual product rather than depending entirely on a spec sheet. The first sample assesses fit and function before full production begins.
If the die cut needs adjusting, we adjust it and send a second sample instead of producing an unusable batch.
Packing items from Custom Pack Studio
All packaging in our collection is produced in our own factory, meaning 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 each order, everything is produced on a one production line.
Containers and crates
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes accommodate diverse retail and product packaging, with printing provided across every panel to help ensure the branding visible regardless of how the container is placed on a shelf.
When it comes to jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid begins selling the product before it is even opened.
The standard of the board material and precision of the die cutting are just as important as the print itself.
Cardboard postal mailers and delivery packaging
Postal mailer boxes are manufactured to fit your product’s exact dimensions, minimising void fill and helping to prevent the damage that an ill-fitting box may cause during transit.
For larger or heavier products, we produce corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, while printed inserts safeguard the contents within.
A gusseted box expands to accommodate multiple items in one order, making it suitable for subscription boxes or bundle deals whose contents change each month.
Packing customised to the industry
Our top-quality packaging is created to accommodate a broad selection of products across numerous industries.
Meal packaging materials
We hold BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, frequently being the first assurance our food packaging customers seek, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers moving into retail.
Of every category we offer, food and drink packaging is governed by the most demanding requirements, as ensuring safe contact with the product takes priority over the box’s appearance.
Premium sector
For jewellery and cosmetics, a tailored insert or foam cavity holds products securely during transit, while foil stamping or soft touch lamination echoes the contents.
We support you in developing packaging that enhances your products, creating a luxurious feel for your brand.
Postal box and online business labels
When a mailer is delivered crushed, it typically signals a request for a return or refund, leaving online brands seeking packaging durable enough to emerge whole from the courier network.
Bespoke packaging also delivers a memorable unboxing experience.
Converting an opening into loyal customers and, from time to time, free online advertising!
Maintaining every reorganisation uniformly
Your repeat order gets 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 included directly in the quoted price, so there is no discount code to remember.
The identical pricing structure applies to twenty boxes, several thousand restocked during a quarter, and even a pallet prepared for bulk delivery.
Even a matched reorder from a different supplier receives the same proofing and quality checks as those applied to an entirely new design.
No item passes an inspection simply because it appears similar to something you already own.
Sustainable sourcing from our premier packaging facility
Every box we make is 100% recyclable, assisting in reducing plastic and landfill waste.
We won’t introduce laminate only 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.
Should a sustainability statement require scrutiny during a procurement audit, we would be happy to discuss it with you face to face or by telephone.

Explore the ideal packaging solution with Custom Pack Studio today.
Call 01294 314 919 or email contact@custompackstudio.co.uk. If you are moving from another supplier, send us your current specification or a sample of the existing box, allowing us to quote directly against it rather than begin from scratch.
Starting at the beginning works just as well.
Tell us what you plan to pack and the quantity required, either over the phone or by putting together a design with our online tool before placing your order. We will then send a quick written quotation, with no requirement to continue.
Your first sample is free, and it is also provided at no cost when an existing account transfers to us. In both cases, the person providing your quotation will still be the same person looking after your account in two years.
Regardless of your business location, we ship throughout the UK directly to Jarrow from our Irvine factory.
