Whatever your packaging requirements, from one sample to a full range of products for an ongoing account, one factory and one team manage everything.
We retain your artwork, reproduce your colours with the same accuracy on the tenth reorder as on the first, and tell you frankly when a deadline is tight.
A named contact oversees your request, production and dispatch, from the initial sample to a repeat order two years later. Because they remain part of the process, the specification stays consistent.

What shifts happen when packaging becomes an enduring supplier relationship with Northfleet
Once that initial order comes in, attention turns to the box: its fit, its print quality, and whether it reaches you by the expected time.
A supplier relationship becomes important on order six, when the same product needs the same colour and fit, without you needing to explain the specification again from the beginning.
We oversee board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, keeping colour and wall thickness consistent from your first order to every reorder.
The professional quoting your job also runs it on the press.
If any aspect of a reorder requires clarification, you can speak to them directly and get a genuine answer.
Here’s Why Northfleet businesses choose Our packing solutions
Absolutely no minimum purchase on all products.
We do not have a minimum order for anything we produce, meaning one sample and a five-hundred-unit reorder follow the same process.
We do not need a minimum volume before taking on your work, nor do we apply an additional charge simply because the order is limited in size.
This shows that our development is in line with your Northfleet business.
When you are ready to grow your business or product line, we will support you throughout your journey.
One exclusive liaison, from inquiry to final handover
Your dedicated contact supports your account from enquiry all the way through to delivery, so they are familiar with your spec when you are ready to place another order.
You are never transferred between departments or expected to describe the job again to a new member of the team whenever you telephone.
Years of domestic manufacturing
Our parent company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has managed presses in the UK since 1997.
This background indicates the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are well-established partners, formed over decades rather than selected anew for each new job.
As we ready the ink and keep our own board stock, your colour match does not rely on an external printer’s interpretation of your brief.
The sample you accept is exactly what leaves the production facility.
Delivery designed around your Northfleet business
We supply across the country, wherever your business is situated, whether you need one sample or a complete pallet.
In Northfleet, our delivery service keeps to the same schedule from the same Irvine factory, regardless of the order size or destination.
Whether you need a single box couriered for sign-off or multiple pallets planned for a launch date, one consistent logistics process manages both, ensuring delivery remains unchanged as your order expands.
Customised plans crafted around your product
Some products do not fit within a standard box.
Where yours has an atypical shape or challenging dimensions, we design the structure around it. Components needing separation during transit are given the same careful approach, with their protection integrated into the structure from the outset rather than fitted afterwards.
Your actual product is where our design process starts, rather than a specification sheet alone. Before full production starts, a first sample confirms its fit and function.
If the die cut needs adjusting, we make the necessary changes and create a second sample instead of producing an unusable batch.
Wrapping products from Custom Pack Workshop
Every product in our packaging range is manufactured at our own factory, so the finish approved on your sample is the exact finish you receive when ordering five hundred.
From tailored packaging designed for a single product line to the accessories that accompany each order, everything is produced from one production line.
Containers and cartons
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes suit a wide range of retail and product packaging needs, with each panel printed to keep your branding noticeable wherever the container rests on a shelf.
For jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with magnetic closure or a foil stamped lid does much of the selling before it has even been opened.
The quality of the board and the accuracy of its die cut are just as important here as the printing itself.
Cardboard envelopes and shipping packaging
Postal mailer boxes are made to match your product’s dimensions rather than a standard size, reducing the need for void fill and limiting damage resulting from a poorly fitting box during transit.
For larger or heavier items, we manufacture full colour corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons, while printed inserts help keep everything inside safely cushioned.
A gusseted box opens out to fit multiple items in one order, making it well suited for a subscription box or bundle whose contents vary each month.
Packaging options for the sector
Our high-quality packaging is appropriate for numerous products across a range of industries.
Edible wrapping materials
We hold High Hygiene BRC Global Packaging certification, frequently the first detail food packaging customers ask about, from small bakeries to wholesale suppliers expanding into retail.
Food and drink packaging faces our highest requirements, because product-contact safety is more important than the box’s appearance.
Elite division
For jewellery and cosmetics, a tailored insert or foam recess stops movement during transit, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination complement the product within.
We help create packaging that suits your items and provides your brand a luxurious feel.
Postal boxes and digital businesses
A damaged mailer can often prompt a request for a return or refund, making hard-wearing packaging important for e commerce brands that require boxes to endure the courier network and reach their destination intact.
Additionally, bespoke packaging turns opening your order into a memorable experience.
An opening can lead to customer loyalty and, on occasion, free advertising online.
Sustaining every reorder in cohesion
We process every reorder as we would a first order, keeping the same named contact and proofing process, while obtaining the board and ink from the same suppliers as before.
As your order grows, the unit cost decreases, with savings already reflected in the price, so there is no discount code to remember!
The same rates covers twenty boxes, a few thousand replenished over the course of a quarter, or a pallet secured for bulk delivery.
Even when ordering again a matched item from another supplier, we carry out the same proofing and quality checks required for a brand-new design.
Nothing gets through simply because it is similar to something you already possessed.
Eco-friendly sourcing from our main packaging plant
Each box we make is 100% recyclable, contributing to a reduction in plastic and landfill waste.
We will not add laminate just for a glossy finish if it makes a box more difficult to recycle, as we reduce single use plastic and EPS foam across the range.
If you require a sustainability claim to withstand procurement audit scrutiny, we would be delighted to talk it through with you face to face or by telephone.
How changing versus commencing performs
Get in touch with us and provide an general idea of what you need packed, your location in Northfleet, the amount required, and whether we should replicate an existing supplier.
Make use of our free samples service to ask for a sample when trialling new products or checking quality before placing a larger order.
Approve the proof after our team has created the artwork, matched it to any current specification and provided written price confirmation.
Manufacturing and delivery usually take two to three weeks, while most UK and Northfleet addresses receive their orders within one to two working days following dispatch.
As needed, reorder through your existing named contact using the specification already on file.

Beginning from the very start works just as well.
Let us know what you are packing and the quantity you require by phone, or begin a design using our online design tool before ordering. You will receive a quick written quote with absolutely no pressure to commit!
A sample is complimentary with a first order, and again on the day an existing account moves over to us. In either instance, the person providing the quotation will still be managing your account two years from now.
Regardless of your business location, we send throughout the UK directly to Northfleet from the very same Irvine factory.
