Whatever your packaging requirements, from an individual sample to a complete range of products for a continuing account, are handled by a single factory and one dedicated team.
We retain your artwork files on file, see that colour matching remains consistent between the first and tenth orders, and give you honest advice when a deadline is especially tight.
A dedicated contact oversees your enquiry, manufacturing and delivery, from the first sample to a reorder after two years. Because they remain involved throughout, the specification stays unchanged.

Which differences occur when packaging becomes a uninterrupted supplier partnership with Letchworth Garden City?
Once that initial order arrives, attention turns to the box: its fit, its print quality, and whether it reaches you by the expected time.
A working relationship with a supplier is demonstrated on order six, when the same product needs the same colour and fit, without requiring you to restate the specification again from scratch.
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 individual pricing your job also runs it on the press.
Questions about a reorder should be directed straight to them for a clear, honest answer.
Reasons Letchworth Garden City businesses choose Our packaging services
Zero minimum purchase on each product
There is no minimum order for anything we produce, so one sample or a reorder of five hundred units follows exactly the same process!
Whether the order is modest or substantial, we are ready to take it on, with no minimum order quantity required and no additional charge simply because it is small.
This means, we grow alongside your Letchworth Garden City company.
When you feel ready to develop your business or product line, we will assist you along your journey.
A designated contact starting from enquiry to delivery
Your dedicated contact remains with your account from enquiry right through to delivery, so they know your spec when you are ready to reorder.
You are never transferred between departments or asked to explain the job again to someone new each time you call.
Decades of internal manufacturing
Our holding company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has run presses in the UK since 1997.
This history means that the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are reliable relationships developed over decades, rather than sourced anew for each individual job.
As we ready the ink and maintain our own board stock, your colour match is not dependent on an outside printer’s interpretation of your brief.
The edition approved on the proof is exactly what leaves the factory.
Distribution crafted around your Letchworth Garden City business
We deliver throughout the country, wherever your business is based, whether you need one sample or a full pallet.
Our delivery service collects from the same factory in Irvine following a set schedule, regardless of order size or location within Letchworth Garden City.
Whether you require one box sent for approval or several pallets scheduled around a launch date, the same logistics process manages everything, ensuring delivery stays unchanged as the order grows.
Custom layouts created around your item.
Some products fall outside the dimensions of a standard box.
If your item has an unusual shape or difficult dimension, we design the structure to fit it accurately. Components needing to be separated during transit are integrated into the structure, rather than fitted later.
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.
Should the die cut require refinement, we refine it and supply a second sample rather than creating an inappropriate batch.
Wrapping products by Bespoke Pack Studio
Every piece of packaging in our range is crafted within our own factory, meaning that the finish approved on your sample is precisely the finish supplied with an order of five hundred.
Whether it is custom packaging for a sole product line or the accessories that complete an order, everything is produced on one production line.
Cases and cartons
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes serve countless retail and product packaging needs, with branding featured on every panel so it stays visible wherever the container sits on the shelf.
For jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid starts selling the product before it is even opened.
The quality of the board material and precision of the die cutting are equally important as the print itself.
Paperboard post parcels and delivery packaging
Postal mailer boxes are produced to fit your product’s exact dimensions, minimising void fill and helping to prevent the damage that an poorly fitting box may cause during transit.
For larger items, we produce corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, while printed inserts protect the contents.
A gusseted box opens out to hold multiple items in one order, making it well suited for subscription boxes or bundle deals whose contents change monthly.
Wrapping for your own sector
Our premium packaging is thoughtfully designed to accommodate products across a wide range of industries.
Food packaging materials
We hold BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, often serving as the first assurance our food packaging customers seek, from small bakeries to wholesale suppliers moving into retail.
Of all the categories we supply, food and drink packaging demands the greatest care, because safety where packaging meets the product must always take priority over the box’s appearance.
Upscale field
For jewellery and cosmetics, a custom-made insert or foam recess keeps items from moving during transit, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination reflect the product within.
We help design packaging that suits your items and adds your brand a premium feel.
Shipping cartons for internet stores
A damaged mailer can trigger a request for a return or refund, so e commerce brands need a box durable enough to travel through the courier network in one piece.
In addition, tailored packaging turns opening the parcel into a memorable unboxing experience.
Turning an opening into loyal customers and, from time to time, complimentary online advertising!
Keeping every re-arrangement uniform
We process each reorder precisely as we do a first order, using the same named contact, unchanged proofing procedure, and board and ink from the suppliers used previously.
As your order increases in size, the per-unit price falls, with the saving included in the pricing rather than depending on a discount code.
The same price structure covers twenty boxes, a few thousand replenished during a quarter, or a pallet arranged for large-volume delivery.
Even when ordering again a matched item from another supplier, we perform the same proofing and quality checks needed for a completely new design.
Every piece is evaluated separately, even when designed to look like something you had owned previously.
Eco-friendly sourcing from our flagship packaging centre
Each box we produce is completely recyclable, supporting efforts to reduce plastic and landfill waste.
We will not add laminate solely for a shiny finish if it makes a box harder to recycle, and we are reducing our use of single use plastic and EPS foam throughout the range.
If a sustainability claim needs to withstand a procurement audit, we are glad to talk it through in person or by telephone.

Explore your right packaging solution with Custom Pack Studio today.

Beginning anew is just as effective!
Let us know what you are packing and the amount required, either by phone or by starting a design with our online design tool before ordering, and we will soon provide a written quote with no obligation to proceed.
Your initial 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 managing your account in two years.
From our Irvine factory, we send directly across the UK to Letchworth Garden City, wherever your business is based.
