Regardless of your packaging requirements, from a single sample to a complete range of products for an ongoing account, one factory and one team oversee it all.
We hold on to your artwork, match your colours with the same accuracy on the tenth reorder as on the first, and speak honestly to you when a deadline is challenging.
One sole contact handles your enquiry, production and delivery, from the initial sample to a reorder after two years. The specification remains consistent because the same person manages everything!
For a packaging supplier intended to grow in step with your business, get in touch with the welcoming team at Custom Pack Studio today.
Which alters when packing is transformed into an enduring provider association?
When that first order arrives, the focus shifts to the box: its fit, its print quality, and whether it gets to you on time.
A supplier relationship proves its value on the sixth order, when an equivalent product calls for matching colour and fit, without the need for you to restate the specification from the beginning.
We handle board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, ensuring colour and wall thickness remain consistent from your first order through every reorder.
The individual quoting your job also runs it on the press.
Should a repeat order require clarification, they are the person to contact directly for a clear, genuine answer.
The motives behind why Melton Mowbray businesses go for our packaging services
There is no minimum quantity on all products.
We place no minimum order requirement on anything we produce, so one sample and a five hundred unit reorder follow the same process.
We don’t need a minimum volume before accepting your job, nor do we add an additional charge simply because your order is small.
As a result, we develop alongside your Melton Mowbray enterprise.
When you are ready to grow your business or product line, we will be by your side throughout each stage of your journey!
Sole dedicated liaison, from initial request to final handover
A single designated contact oversees your account from the initial enquiry to delivery, keeping a clear understanding of your specification when you are ready to place another order.
You will not be transferred between departments or made to explain the job again to someone new each time you call.
Many generations of internal manufacturing
Our main company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has run presses in the UK since 1997.
This longstanding history ensures that the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are reliable relationships developed over decades, rather than newly sourced for each incoming job.
We blend ink and hold board stock in house, so colour matching does not rely on a third party printer interpreting your brief.
What you approve on the proof is precisely what leaves the factory!
Delivery shaped in line with your Melton Mowbray company
We ship nationwide, wherever your business is located, from a single sample to a full pallet.
Each order is collected by our delivery service from the Irvine factory according to one schedule, regardless of its size or destination in Melton Mowbray.
Whether you need one box sent for approval or several pallets scheduled around a launch date, the same logistics process handles everything, ensuring delivery stays unchanged as the order expands.
Tailor Made Creations Built To Suit Your Product
Certain products simply do not fit into a standard box.
If yours has an atypical shape or difficult dimensions, we plan the structure to fit it perfectly. Components that require separation during transit receive the same careful treatment, built into the structure from the outset rather than being added afterwards.
Our design department uses your real product rather than depending entirely on a specification sheet. An early sample verifies fit and function before any unit goes into full production.
If the die cut needs adjusting, we make the necessary changes and create a second sample instead of creating an unusable batch.

Wrapping goods from Custom Pack Studio
Every item of packaging in our range is made at our own site, ensuring the finish accepted 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 complete an order, everything is produced on one production line.
Cases and containers
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes work well for a wide range of retail and product packaging, with printing on every panel to help keep your branding in view regardless of how the container is positioned on a shelf.
When it comes to jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with magnetic closure or a foil stamped lid begins selling the product before it is even opened!
High-quality board material and accurate die cutting are just as important here as the printing itself.
Corrugated envelopes and delivery packaging
Postal mailer boxes are manufactured to fit your product’s exact dimensions, cutting down on void fill and helping to prevent the damage that an poorly fitting box may cause during transport.
For weightier or more sizeable items, we make full colour corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons, while printed inserts shield and cushion their contents.
A gusseted box opens out to accommodate multiple items in one order, making it suitable for subscription boxes or bundle deals whose contents vary monthly.
Packaging personalised to the field
Our high-quality packaging is ideally suited to varied products across various industries.
Food packaging materials
We maintain BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, which is often the first assurance our food packaging customers look for, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers expanding into retail.
Food and drink packaging faces the toughest requirements across everything we supply, as keeping products safe in contact is far more important than the appearance of the box.
Luxury industry
For jewellery and cosmetics, a custom-made insert or foam recess stops movement in transit, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination echo the product within.
We assist you in creating packaging that complements your products and brings a luxurious feel to your brand.

Mail lockers and e-commerce names
A squashed mailer often triggers a return or refund request, making robust packaging essential for e commerce brands that need boxes to withstand the courier network and arrive intact.
Additionally, tailored packaging turns unboxing into a lasting experience.
Turning an opening into customer loyalty and, from time to time, complimentary online advertising.
Ensuring every reshuffle consistent
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 larger quantities are ordered, the price per unit falls, with savings built into the pricing, leaving no discount code to remember.
That same pricing structure covers twenty boxes, a few thousand replenished within a quarter, and a pallet secured for bulk delivery.
A matched reorder sourced from another supplier undergoes identical proofing and quality checks as a new design.
No item is accepted entirely because it is created to look like something you already had.
Eco-friendly acquisition from our top packaging centre
Each box we make is 100% recyclable, helping to reduce plastic and landfill waste.
We will not introduce laminate only for a shiny finish if it makes a box more difficult to recycle, and we are reducing our use of single use plastic and EPS foam throughout the range.
If a sustainability statement need scrutiny during a procurement audit, we would be pleased to discuss it with you either face to face or by telephone.
How switching and beginning works
