Sustainable Packaging for Small Businesses
Packaging Supplier Maldon

Whatever your packaging needs, from one sample to a full range of products for an ongoing account, are overseen by one factory and one dedicated team.

We keep your artwork in our records, match colours on your tenth reorder as accurately as on the first, and communicate clearly when deadlines are tight.

One dedicated contact manages your enquiry, production and delivery, from your initial sample through to a further order two years later. Your spec stays the same because the same person manages the entire process.

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

How do alterations take place when wrapping becomes a sustained supplier association with Maldon?

An early order generally considers the box itself: whether it fits as intended, prints effectively and is delivered on time.

A trading relationship proves its worth on order six, when the same product requires the same colour and fit, with no need to explain the specification all over again.

We oversee board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, helping to ensure colour and wall thickness remain the same from your first order through each reorder.

The person producing your quote will also operate your job on the press.

When a reorder needs further explanation, they are the person to speak to directly for a straightforward answer.

Why Maldon-based enterprises choose our own packaging offerings

There is no minimum purchase on all items.

We do not have a minimum order for anything we produce, meaning one sample and a five-hundred-unit reorder follow the identical process.

We don’t require a minimum order volume, and we don’t add an extra charge solely because your order is small.

As a result, we grow alongside your Maldon enterprise.

Whenever you are prepared to develop your business or broaden your product range, we will support you during every stage of your journey.

One sole designated contact starting from enquiry through to delivery

A single dedicated contact stays with your account from the initial enquiry to delivery, so your requirements is already understood when you are ready to reorder.

You are not passed between departments, or required to explain the job again to a different person whenever you get in touch.

Generations of in-house manufacturing

Our holding company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has operated presses in the UK since 1997.

That background means the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are established contacts developed over decades, not new sources found for each incoming job.

As we mix ink and keep board stock in house, colour matching does not rely on a third party printer understanding your brief.

The edition approved on the proof is exactly what leaves the factory.

Distribution tailored for your Maldon company

We deliver nationwide, regardless of where your business is based, from a single sample to a full pallet.

In Maldon, our delivery service follows the same schedule from the same Irvine factory, whatever the order size or destination.

Whether a single box requires couriering for approval or several pallets must arrive for a launch date, one logistics process manages both, ensuring delivery remains reliable as orders expand.

Tailored layouts developed to fit your item

Some products simply do not sit into a standard box.

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

Your actual product is where our design story begins, instead of a specification sheet alone. Before full production begins, a first sample confirms its fit and function.

If the die cut needs altering, we modify it and issue a further sample rather than making an unsuitable batch.

Luminae Packaging - Custom Pack Studio

Packaging products by Custom Pack Studio

Every item of packaging in our collection is crafted within our own factory, ensuring the finish approved on your sample is precisely the finish supplied with an order of five hundred.

From custom-made packaging for a single product line to the accessories that complete each order, everything is produced on a single production line.

Containers and packages

Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes meet countless retail and product packaging needs, with branding featured on every panel so it continues to be visible wherever the container sits on the shelf.

For jewellery and gifting, a rigid box featuring magnetic closure or a foil stamped lid starts selling the product before it has even been opened.

The standard of the board material and precision of the die cutting are just as important as the print itself.

Paperboard mailers and postal packaging

Postal mailer boxes are manufactured to fit your product’s exact dimensions, minimising void fill and preventing the damage that an ill-fitting box may cause during transit.

For larger or more substantial items, we create corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, while printed inserts offer cushioning for the contents.

A gusseted box folds out to hold multiple items in one order, making it well suited for a subscription box or bundle whose contents vary each month.

Packing services for your field

Our premium packaging is perfect for a broad range of products and industries!

Grocery packaging items

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

Food and drink packaging meets our highest requirements, because safety when touching the product comes before the box’s appearance.

Luxury industry

For jewellery and cosmetics, a shaped insert or foam recess prevents movement during transit, while foil stamping or soft touch lamination mirrors the product within.

We help you create packaging that elevates your products and brings a luxurious feel to your brand.

Parcel containers for internet firms

A mailer arriving crushed frequently leads to a return or refund request, so e-commerce brands need a box designed to withstand the courier network and arrive intact.

What’s in addition, bespoke packaging transforms opening your order into a memorable unboxing experience!

An opening can lead to customer loyalty and, sometimes, free advertising online.

Maintaining each reorganisation uniformly

We handle every reorder in the same way as a first order, retaining the same named contact, proofing process, and board and ink suppliers as previously.

As your order grows, the lower unit cost is reflected directly in the quoted price, so there is no discount code to enter.

The same price structure applies to twenty boxes, a few thousand replenished over the course of a quarter, or a pallet arranged for large-volume delivery.

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

Nothing gets approved automatically simply because it resembles something you already had!

Responsible sourcing from our premier packaging facility

Each box we make is fully recyclable, helping to reduce plastic and landfill waste.

We will avoid adding laminate solely to create a glossy finish if doing so makes a box more difficult to recycle, and we are phasing out single use plastic and EPS foam across the range.

Should your sustainability claim need to withstand a procurement audit, we would be delighted to discuss it with you in person or by phone.

How shifting or commencing works

Contact us and share an rough idea of what you need packed, your location in Maldon, the amount required, and whether we should match an existing supplier.

Ask for a sample through our free samples service when testing new products or reviewing quality before placing a full order.

Approve the proof after our team has produced the artwork, matched it to any existing specification and confirmed the pricing in writing.

Production and delivery usually take two to three weeks, while most UK and Maldon addresses get their orders within one to two working days after dispatch.

Place a repeat order as needed, using the same named contact and specification already on file!

Explore the right 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 at the beginning works equally well.

Let us know what you are packing and the amount required, either by phone or by beginning a design with our online design tool before ordering, and we will quickly provide a written quote with no obligation to proceed.

A free sample comes with your initial order, and again when an existing account transfers to us. More importantly, whoever puts together your quotation will be the same person looking after your account two years later.

We deliver throughout the UK straight to Maldon from our Irvine manufacturing facility, no matter where your business is based.
