Sustainable Packaging for Small Businesses
Packaging Supplier Newcastle

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.

Your artwork remains safely with us, your colours remain true from the first order through the tenth, and we talk candidly whenever a deadline is especially tight.

A single representative oversees your enquiry, manufacturing and delivery, from the first sample to a repeat order after two years. Because they remain involved throughout, the specification stays consistent.

Which alterations occur when packaging becomes a continuous supplier alliance involving Newcastle?

An early purchase largely involves the box itself, including whether it is the right fit, produces a good print, and arrives as scheduled.

A supplier relationship matters on order six, when the same product requires the same colour and fit, without you having to explain the specification again from the start.

Because we oversee board stock and ink mixing within our own factory, your colour and wall thickness remain consistent from the first order through every reorder that follows.

The person preparing the quote for your job also runs it on the press.

Should a repeat order need clarification, they are the person to speak to directly for a straightforward, honest answer.

Why Newcastle firms choose the packaging offerings

No minimum order on everything.

We do not impose a minimum order requirement for anything we produce, meaning the same process applies to one sample and a five hundred unit reorder.

Whether the order is limited or substantial, we are prepared to handle it, with no minimum volume required and no added cost simply because it is modest.

This means, we grow alongside your Newcastle enterprise.

When you feel ready to grow your business or product line, we will support you throughout your journey.

One single designated contact throughout enquiry until delivery

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

You will not be passed 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 operated presses in the UK since 1997.

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

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

The proof you approve is exactly what leaves the factory.

Shipping designed with your Newcastle firm

We deliver across the country, wherever your business is situated, whether you need one sample or a complete pallet.

Our delivery service gathers orders from the same factory in Irvine on a set schedule, regardless of the size of the order or delivery destination in Newcastle.

Whether you require a single box delivered for approval or multiple pallets planned for a launch date, one streamlined logistics process manages both, ensuring delivery continues as usual as your order expands.

Bespoke Creations Developed Around Your Offering

A few products do not fit within a conventional box.

Where yours has an irregular shape or challenging dimensions, we engineer the structure around it. Components requiring separation during transit receive 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, rather than a specification sheet alone. Before full production starts, a first sample confirms its fit and function.

If the die cut requires adjustment, we amend it and issue a further sample rather than producing an unsuitable batch.

Luminae Packaging - Custom Pack Studio

Wrapping products from Custom Pack Atelier

Every item in our packaging range is made at our own factory, so the finish approved on your sample is the exact finish you receive when ordering five hundred.

From bespoke packaging for a single product line to the accessories completing an order, everything is made on one production line.

Boxes and cartages

Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes accommodate a wide range of retail and product packaging needs, with each panel printed to keep your branding visible wherever the container stands on a shelf.

For jewellery and gift-giving, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid begins selling the product before it is even opened.

Premium quality board material and an precise die cut are just as important here as the print itself.

Cardboard mailers and shipping packaging

Postal mailer boxes are designed to match your product’s measurements, reducing surplus void fill and limiting the damage that an ill-fitting box may cause in transit.

For bigger or heavier items, we produce corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in complete colour, while printed inserts give cushioning for the items inside.

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

Wrapping services for your industry

Our quality packaging is suitable for a wide range of products across different industries.

Cuisine wrapping supplies

We hold BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, which is typically the first thing food packaging customers ask about, from small bakeries to wholesale suppliers expanding into retail.

Food and drink packaging is subject to our strictest requirements, because safety during contact with the product takes priority over the box’s appearance.

Premium industry

When jewellery and cosmetics are transported, a fitted insert or foam cavity holds each product safely, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination echo what lies within.

We assist you create packaging that enhances your items and gives your brand a premium feel.

Postal box and online companies

A crushed mailer can often prompt a request for a return or refund, making hard-wearing packaging necessary for e commerce brands that require boxes to withstand the courier network and arrive intact.

In addition, bespoke packaging transforms opening the package into a memorable unboxing experience.

Turning an opening into customer loyalty and, on occasion, complimentary online advertising.

Maintaining every reorder uniform

We process each reorder precisely as we do a first order, using the same named contact, identical proofing procedure, and board and ink from the suppliers used previously.

As larger quantities are ordered, the price per unit falls, with savings already included in the pricing, leaving you without a discount code to remember.

The same pricing structure applies to twenty boxes, several thousand replenished during a quarter, and even a pallet prepared for bulk delivery.

Even when ordering again a matched item from a different supplier, we perform the same proofing and quality checks required for a brand-new design.

No item passes an inspection just because it appears similar to something you possess already.

Environmentally responsible sourcing from our leading packaging facility

Each box we manufacture is fully recyclable, helping to cut down on 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 reviewing during a procurement audit, we would be happy to examine it with you in person or by telephone.

Please contact us with an general description of what you need to pack, your location in Newcastle, the amount needed, and whether we need to replicate an existing supplier.

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.

Making a fresh start can be just as effective.

Give an approximate description of your packing needs and how many you need by telephone, or begin designing with our online design tool before ordering. We will quickly provide a written quotation, with no obligation to proceed.

A complimentary sample comes with your initial order, and again when an existing account transfers to us. Even better, whoever prepares your quotation will be the same person looking after your account two years later.

We ship throughout the UK directly to Newcastle from the same Irvine factory, wherever your business is situated.
