Regardless of your packaging requirements, from a single sample to a full range of products for an ongoing account, one factory and one team handle everything.
We retain your artwork on file, reproduce colours on your tenth reorder with the same accuracy as on the first, and speak plainly when time is short.
One named contact manages your enquiry, production and delivery, from your initial sample through to a reorder two years later. Your spec stays the same because the same person oversees everything.

What changes when packaging develops into an continuous vendor collaboration?
Once that first order comes in, the focus shifts to the box: its fit, its print quality, and whether it gets to you on time.
A relationship with a supplier gains trust by order six, when an identical product requires the same colour and fit, without needing the specification again.
We handle board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, making sure colour and wall thickness stay consistent from your first order to every reorder.
The team member providing a quote for your job runs it on the press too!
If anything about a reorder requires clarification, contact them directly for a clear, genuine answer.
Why Normanton-owned businesses rely on our packaging solutions
There is no minimum requirement on every item
We do not require a minimum order on any product we make, so one sample and a reorder of five hundred units are handled using identical procedures.
We don’t need a minimum volume before accepting your job, nor do we add an additional charge simply because your order is limited.
As a result, we develop alongside your Normanton business.
When you feel ready to expand your business or product line, we will assist you along your journey.
A dedicated named contact throughout enquiry to delivery
The same person continues handling your account from initial enquiry to delivery, already aware of your specifications when the time comes to reorder.
You are never transferred between departments or asked to explain the job again to someone new whenever you call.
Decades of internal manufacturing
Our group company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has run presses in the UK from 1997.
That background means the board and ink suppliers working on your order are established contacts built over decades, not new sources identified for each incoming 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.
Whatever you approve on the proof is exactly what leaves the factory!
Shipping crafted around your Normanton company
We supply across the country, wherever your business is situated, whether you need a single sample or a full pallet.
Our delivery service gathers all orders from the same Irvine factory according to one schedule, regardless of its size or destination in Normanton.
Whether you are seeking a single box delivered for sign-off or multiple pallets arranged for a launch date, one reliable logistics process coordinates both, ensuring delivery continues as usual as your order grows.
Specially Designed Creations Built Focussed on Your Offering
Some products do not fit inside a standard box.
Where yours has an unusual shape or awkward dimensions, we engineer the structure around it. Components requiring separation during transit are given the same considered approach, with their protection integrated into the structure from the outset rather than added afterwards.
Our design team uses your real product rather than relying solely on a specification sheet. An early sample assesses fit and function before any unit proceeds to full production.
Should the die cut need adjustment, we refine it and supply a second sample rather than making an inappropriate batch.
Wrapping merchandise by Tailored Pack Studio
Every piece of packaging in our collection is made within our own factory, ensuring the finish approved on your sample is exactly the finish delivered with an order of five hundred.
All items from bespoke packaging for one product line to the accessories included with an order is produced on one production line.
Containers and packages
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes are suitable for varied retail and product packaging, with every panel printed so branding can be seen wherever containers are placed.
For jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with magnetic closure or a foil stamped lid handles much of the selling before being opened.
High-quality board material and accurate die cutting are every bit as important here as the printing itself.
Cardboard postal parcels and dispatch packaging
Postal mailer boxes are designed to fit your goods, rather than a standard size, reducing wasted space and damage resulting in transit by a badly fitting box.
For bigger or heavier products, we manufacture corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, whilst printed inserts protect the contents within.
A gusseted box opens out to accommodate multiple items in one order, making it well suited for a subscription box or bundle deal whose contents vary each month.
Packaging tailored to the area
Our premium packaging is well suited to varied products across numerous industries.
Grocery packaging supplies
We have High Hygiene BRC Global Packaging certification, often the first aspect food packaging customers ask about, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers moving into retail.
Packaging for food and beverages must meet the strictest standards of every category we supply, because safety during product contact takes precedence over appearance.
Prestige field
For jewellery and cosmetics, a fitted insert or foam cavity secures each product firmly during transit, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination echo the contents.
We produce packaging that enhances your items and gives your brand a high-end feel.
Post parcels and online business names
A crushed mailer often triggers a return or refund request, making robust packaging necessary for e commerce brands that need boxes to withstand the courier network and arrive intact.
What’s more, bespoke packaging transforms opening your order into a memorable unboxing experience!
Transforming an opening into customer loyalty and, sometimes, free online advertising!
Keeping every reorder uniform
A reorder uses the same procedure as a initial order, using the same named contact and proofing process, with board and ink sourced from the same suppliers as before.
As your order becomes larger, the reduced unit cost is included directly in the quoted price, so there is no discount code to enter.
The same price structure covers twenty boxes, a few thousand replenished over the course of a quarter, or a pallet arranged for large-volume delivery.
Even when ordering again a matched item from a different supplier, we complete the same proofing and quality checks required for a completely new design.
Each item is assessed separately, even when designed to look like something you previously owned.
Environmentally friendly sourcing from our renowned packaging site
Every box we manufacture is entirely recyclable, helping to reduce plastic and landfill waste.
We will not add laminate purely for a glossy finish if doing so makes a box more difficult to recycle, and we are reducing our use of single use plastic and EPS foam across the range.
If you require a sustainability claim to withstand procurement audit scrutiny, we would be pleased to talk it through with you in person or over the telephone.
How changing or launching works
Please contact us with a summary of what you need packed, your area in Normanton, the quantity needed, and whether we should match an existing supplier.
If you are evaluating new products or want to assess their quality before placing a complete order, you can ask for a sample through our complimentary samples service.
Authorise the proof after our team finishes the artwork, follows any existing specification and confirms the pricing in writing.
Production and delivery usually take two to three weeks, while the majority of UK and Normanton addresses get their orders within one to two working days after dispatch.
Reorder when required through the same named contact, with the same specification kept on file.
