Sustainable Packaging for Small Businesses
Packaging Supplier Macclesfield

Whatever your packaging requirements, from one sample to a complete range of products for an ongoing account, one factory and one team oversee the entire process.

We store your artwork securely in our records, match your colours with the same accuracy on the tenth reorder as on the first, and tell you straight away if a deadline seems tight.

From your initial sample to a reorder two years afterwards, one named contact handles your enquiry, production and delivery. The specification stays the same because the same person remains at the helm.

For a packaging supplier designed to grow with your business, get in touch with the welcoming team at Custom Pack Studio today.

What changes when packing turns into an ongoing supplier association?

A initial order largely evaluates the box itself: whether it fits, prints correctly and arrives on schedule.

A solid supplier relationship demonstrates its worth on order six, when the same product requires the same colour and fit, without you needing to explain the specification from scratch.

We oversee board stock and ink mixing in our very own factory, ensuring colour and wall thickness remain uniform from your first order through each reorder.

The team member producing your quotation will also operate your job on the press.

If a reorder needs clarification, they are the person to contact directly for a definitive answer.

Why Macclesfield businesses opt for our packing solutions

No minimum quantity required on every item

We do not impose a minimum order for all items we produce, so one sample and a five hundred unit reorder go through the same process.

We do not require a minimum volume to accept your job, and small orders never incur an additional charge.

In turn, we develop alongside your Macclesfield business.

Whenever you are ready to expand your business or product line, we will be right beside you throughout the entire course of your journey!

A sole assigned contact right from enquiry to delivery

One designated contact manages your account from the initial enquiry to delivery, retaining a clear understanding of your specification when you are prepared to place another order.

You deal with one consistent team, so you are not required to explain the job again to a different person each time you call.

Decades of domestic manufacturing

Our parent company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has been operating presses in the UK since 1997.

That heritage shows the board and ink suppliers helping with your order embody relationships built over decades, rather than sources newly identified for every separate commission.

We mix ink and hold board stock in house, so colour matching does not depend on a third party printer interpreting your brief.

The factory makes precisely what is signed off on the proof.

Delivery designed around your Macclesfield business

We deliver nationwide to your organisation, whether you need one sample or a full pallet.

Our delivery service picks up all orders from the same Irvine factory according to the same schedule, regardless of its size or destination in Macclesfield.

Whether a single box must be couriered for approval or multiple pallets need arranging around a launch date, one single logistics process handles everything, ensuring delivery stays the same as the order expands.

Bespoke designs made to enhance your offering

Some products cannot be accommodated inside a standard box.

Where yours has an irregular shape or challenging dimensions, we engineer the structure around it. Components needing separation during transit are given the same thoughtful approach, with their protection incorporated into the structure from the outset rather than attached afterwards.

Your actual product is where our design process starts, rather than a specification sheet alone. Before full production starts, a initial sample confirms its fit and function.

If the die cut needs modification, we adjust it and create a second sample instead of creating an unusable batch.

Boxing products from Bespoke Pack Studio

Every item of packaging in our selection is manufactured at our own facility, ensuring the finish approved on your sample is identical to that supplied in an order of five hundred.

Whether it’s custom packaging for a sole product line or the accessories that finish an order, everything is produced on one production line.

Cases and packing boxes

Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes are suitable for diverse retail and product packaging, with printing applied to every panel to ensure the branding visible regardless of how the container is oriented on a shelf.

When it comes to jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid can begin selling the product before it has even been opened.

High-quality board material and accurate die cutting are every bit as important here as the printing itself.

Recycled mailers and despatch packaging

Postal mailer boxes are designed to fit your product, rather than a standard size, reducing wasted space and damage caused in transit by a ill-fitting box.

For bulkier or bulkier items, we make full colour corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons, while printed inserts keep everything inside safely cushioned.

A gusseted box opens out to fit multiple items in one order, making it suitable for a subscription box or bundle whose contents differ each month.

Packaging for your particular area

Our top-quality packaging is designed to support a diverse range of products across numerous industries.

Grocery packaging provisions

We hold High Hygiene BRC Global Packaging certification, frequently the first aspect food packaging customers ask about, from small bakeries to wholesale suppliers moving into retail.

Food and drink packaging meets the toughest requirements across all the products we supply, because keeping products safe in contact is much more important than the appearance of the box.

High level market

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 assist you in designing packaging that suits your items, adding a upmarket feel for your brand.

Letter boxes and e-commerce companies

A squashed mailer can trigger a request for a return or refund, so e commerce businesses need a box durable enough to pass through the delivery network intact.

Moreover, customised packaging delivers a lasting unboxing experience.

Converting an opening into customer loyalty and, occasionally, complimentary online advertising!

Sustaining all reshuffling steadily

When a reorder arrives, we handle it as a first order, retaining the same named contact, using the identical proofing process, and sourcing board and ink from the previously used suppliers.

Bigger orders reduce the unit cost, with the reduction built into the stated price instead of requiring a discount code to be applied.

The same pricing applies to twenty boxes, a few thousand replenished during a quarter, or a pallet secured for large-volume delivery.

A matched reorder sourced from another supplier undergoes the same proofing and quality checks as a new design.

Nothing is accepted solely because it is created to imitate something you already had.

Environmentally responsible sourcing from our leading packaging facility

Each box we manufacture is fully recyclable, helping to reduce both plastic rubbish and waste sent to landfill.

We will avoid adding laminate solely for a glossy finish if doing so 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 pleased to discuss it face to face or over the telephone.

How switching or starting operations

Please get in touch us with an rough outline of the items you need packed, your location in Macclesfield, the amount required, and whether an existing supplier must be matched.

If you are trying new products or wish to assess their quality before submitting a full order, request a sample through our free samples service.

Sign off on the proof after our team has prepared the artwork, matched any existing spec and confirmed pricing in writing.

Manufacturing and delivery generally require two to three weeks, while most UK and Macclesfield addresses receive their orders within one to two working days after dispatch.

As needed, reorder via your usual named contact using the specification already on file.

Find the perfect packaging solution with Custom Pack Studio now.

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 from the beginning works equally well.

Let us know what you plan to pack and the amount needed, either over the phone or by putting together a design with our online tool before placing your order. We will then send a prompt written quotation, with no requirement to continue.

Your initial sample is provided at no cost, and it is free again 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.

We send throughout the UK directly to Macclesfield from our Irvine manufacturing facility, regardless of where your business is situated.
