From a single sample to a complete range of packaging products for an ongoing account, one factory and one committed team handle everything in one place.
We hold your artwork on file, reproduce colours on your tenth reorder with the same accuracy as on the first, and communicate clearly when time is short.
One sole contact oversees your enquiry, production and delivery, from the initial sample to a reorder two years later. The specification stays consistent because the same person handles everything!

Which differences arise when wrapping becomes a uninterrupted provider alliance with Lancing?
A first order primarily tests the box itself: whether it fits, prints accurately and arrives on schedule.
A supplier relationship gains trust by order six, when an identical product requires the same colour and fit, without needing the specification again.
By managing 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 quoting your job operates it on the press too!
Questions about a reorder should be directed straight to them for a clear, genuine answer.
How come Lancing businesses select our company’s packaging services
No minimum purchase on every product
We have no 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 impose no minimum volume requirement, and a lower-volume order will not incur an additional charge.
This indicates that our growth is aligned with your Lancing business.
When the moment arrives to grow your business or broaden your product range, we will stand beside you at every stage of the process.
A dedicated contact, beginning with enquiry up to delivery
A single dedicated contact handles your account from initial enquiry through to delivery and understands your details when you are ready to reorder.
You are never transferred from one department to another, nor left repeating the details of your job each time you call.
Several eras of in-house manufacturing
KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, our main company, has managed printing presses in the UK since 1997.
That tradition means the board and ink suppliers helping with your order reflect relationships developed over decades, rather than sources newly identified for every separate commission.
We blend our own ink and keep board stock ourselves, so colour matching is never reliant on a third-party printer understanding your brief.
What you approve in the proof is precisely what leaves the factory!
Distribution tailored in line with your Lancing business
We deliver nationwide, regardless of where your business is located, from a single sample to a full pallet.
In Lancing, our delivery service keeps to the same schedule from the same Irvine factory, whatever the order size or destination.
Whether you require a single box submitted for approval or a number of pallets planned around a launch date, one logistics process covers both, ensuring delivery stays consistent as the order increases.
Custom designs made to suit your goods
Some products cannot be accommodated inside a standard box.
When yours features an irregular shape or challenging dimension, we adapt the structure to suit it. Components needing separation during transit are integrated within it, never fitted later.
Our design specialists evaluate your physical product rather than depending entirely on a specification sheet. An initial sample checks fit and performance before any item moves into full production.
If the die cut needs altering, we adjust it and issue a further sample rather than creating a batch that is unsuitable.
Packing items from Custom Packaging Studio
All packaging from our collection is made in our own factory, ensuring the finish approved on the basis of a sample is precisely the finish supplied for an order of five hundred.
From bespoke packaging designed for a single product line to the accessories that finish each order, everything is produced from one production line.
Packages and cartons
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes work well for a diverse range of retail and product packaging, with printing on every panel to ensure your branding in view regardless of how the container is placed on a shelf.
For jewellery and gifts, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid begins selling the product before it is even opened.
Premium board material and accurate die cutting are every bit as important here as the printing itself.
Corrugated mailers plus dispatch packaging
Postal mailer boxes are made to suit your product’s measurements, minimising surplus void fill and limiting the damage that an ill-fitting box may cause during transit.
For larger or more substantial items, we make corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in complete colour, while printed inserts provide cushioning for the contents.
A gusseted box folds out to accommodate multiple items in one order, making it well suited for a subscription box or bundle whose contents vary each month.
Packaging for your own area
Our high-quality packaging is ideal for a broad range of products and industries!
Catering packaging solutions
We have BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, and it is often the first aspect our food packaging customers ask about, whether they operate a small bakery or are a wholesale supplier moving into retail.
Of every category we offer, food and drink packaging is governed by the most rigorous requirements, as ensuring safe contact with the product takes priority over the box’s appearance.
Premium field
For jewellery and cosmetics, a shaped insert or foam recess keeps the contents from moving in transit, while foil stamping or soft touch lamination echoes the product within.
We produce packaging designs that suit your items, providing your brand a noticeably luxurious feel.
Mail packages for ecommerce retailers
A damaged mailer can trigger a return or refund request, so online brands need a box tough enough to make its way through the courier network intact.
Furthermore, custom-made packaging transforms unboxing into a lasting experience.
Transforming an opening into loyal customers and, at times, complimentary online advertising.
Maintaining every reshuffle uniform
We manage each reorder precisely as we do a first order, using the same designated contact, identical proofing procedure, and board and ink from the suppliers used before.
As your order becomes larger, the lower unit cost is reflected directly in the quoted price, so there is no discount code to enter.
The same pricing covers twenty boxes, a few thousand replenished over the course of a quarter, or a pallet arranged for bulk delivery.
A repeat order from another supplier undergoes the same proofing process and rigorous quality checks as an entirely new design.
No item passes inspection simply because it appears similar to something you already own.
Environmentally conscious sourcing from our premier packaging location
Each box we create is fully recyclable, supporting efforts to reduce plastic and landfill waste.
We will not add laminate solely for a glossy finish if it makes a box more difficult to recycle. We are also reducing single use plastic and EPS foam throughout the range.
If a sustainability statement need reviewing during a procurement audit, we would be glad to examine it with you face to face or by telephone.
How modifying versus starting runs
Get in touch with us with an approximate description of what you need to pack, your location in Lancing, the amount needed, and whether we need to replicate an existing supplier.
If you are evaluating new products or wish to assess their quality before placing a complete order, you can request a sample through our complimentary samples service.
Sign off on the proof after our team finalises the artwork, adheres to any existing specification and confirms the pricing in writing.
Production and delivery generally take two to three weeks. The majority of UK and Lancing addresses get their orders within one to two working days of being dispatched.
When necessary, place another order through the same named contact, using the specification already held on file.
