How does changes take place when packaging becomes an continuous supplier relationship with Peterborough
A initial order is really about the box itself: will it fit properly, print clearly and be delivered on time?
A reliable supplier relationship proves itself on order six, when the same product requires the same colour and fit, without you explaining the specification from scratch.
We oversee board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, helping to ensure colour and wall thickness stay consistent from your first order to every reorder.
The person who puts together your quotation likewise manages its production on the press.
Whenever a reorder calls for clarity, they are the person you speak to directly, prepared with a honest answer.
The reasons Peterborough businesses choose our company’s packaging solutions
There is no minimum spend on any product.
We place no minimum order requirement on anything we produce, so one sample and a five hundred unit reorder follow the same process.
We do not need a minimum volume to accept your job, and small orders never incur an additional charge.
This shows that we develop alongside your Peterborough business.
When the time comes to grow your business or broaden your product range, we will be there for you at every stage of the process.
One personal contact, beginning with enquiry until delivery
One dedicated contact handles your account from initial enquiry through to delivery and understands your requirements when you are ready to order again.
You will not be passed between departments or made to explain the job again to someone new whenever you call.
Several decades of in house manufacturing
Our parent company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has operated presses in the UK since 1997.
This history shows the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are well-established partners, built over decades rather than selected anew for each new job.
We mix our own ink and maintain board stock ourselves, so colour matching is never reliant on a third-party printer understanding your instructions.
Whatever you approve on the proof is precisely what leaves the factory!
Shipment adapted to your Peterborough business
We deliver across the country, wherever your business is situated, whether you want one sample or a complete pallet.
Our delivery service picks up from the same factory in Irvine following a consistent schedule, irrespective of order size or location within Peterborough.
Whether you require one box sent for approval or several pallets scheduled around a launch date, one uniform logistics process manages everything, so delivery stays consistent as your order expands.
Custom Creations Created to Suit Your Item
Some products do not fit within a conventional box.
When yours has an unusual shape or challenging dimensions, we create the structure to work around it. Components requiring separation during transit are treated with the same care, being built into the structure instead of being added later.
Our design department collaborates directly with your actual product rather than depending entirely on a spec sheet. The first sample tests fit and function before complete production starts.
If the die cut requires adjustment, we amend it and dispatch a second sample rather than producing a batch that is not suitable.
Packaging items from Personalised Pack Studio
Every product in our packaging range is made at our own factory, so the finish approved on your sample is exactly what you receive when ordering five hundred.
From tailor-made packaging for one product line to the accessories that finish off every order, everything is produced on a single production line.
Boxes and wrappers
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes suit many retail and product packaging needs. Printing covers every panel, helping ensure the branding remains visible whatever way the container sits on a shelf.
When it comes to jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid begins selling the product prior to being opened.
Superior board material and precise die cutting are equally important here as the printing itself.
Corrugated mailers and shipping packaging
Postal mailer boxes are designed to suit your product’s measurements, minimising surplus void fill and limiting the damage that an ill-fitting box may cause in transit.
For bulkier or bigger items, we manufacture full colour corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons, while printed inserts help protect and cushion their contents.
A gusseted box increases in size to accommodate multiple items in one order, making it well suited for a subscription box or bundle deal whose contents differ each month.
Packing options for the sector
Our reliable packaging is well-suited to many products across various industries.
Catering packaging solutions
Our BRC Global Packaging certification includes the High Hygiene level. It is usually the initial assurance food packaging customers seek, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers moving into retail.
Food and drink packaging is governed by the most stringent requirements of all the categories we supply, because product contact safety outweighs the box’s visual appeal.
Elite grade market
When jewellery and cosmetics travel, a fitted insert or foam cavity keeps each product securely, while finishes including foil stamping or soft touch lamination echo what lies within.
We create packaging that showcases your items and adds your brand a premium feel.
Post boxes for digital companies
A damaged mailer can lead to a request for a return or refund, so e commerce brands need a box tough enough to travel through the delivery network intact.
Furthermore, bespoke packaging makes opening your order a memorable experience.
Converting an opening into customer loyalty and, sometimes, unpaid online advertising!
Keeping every reshuffle reliably
When a reorder comes in, we process it as a first order, retaining the same named contact, following the identical proofing process, and sourcing board and ink from the same suppliers as before.
The price per unit reduces as the quantity ordered grows, with those savings already incorporated in the price rather than depending on a discount code you need to remember to use.
The same pricing structure is applicable to twenty boxes, several thousand replenished within a quarter, and even a pallet prepared for bulk delivery.
Even when ordering again a matched item from a different supplier, we complete the same proofing and quality checks required for a brand-new design.
No item is accepted without examination merely because it is designed to resemble something you already owned.
Sustainable sourcing from our renowned packaging facility
Every box we make is completely recyclable, supporting efforts to reduce plastic and landfill waste.
We will not add 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 across the range.
If a sustainability claim must withstand a procurement audit, we are pleased to talk it through in person or by telephone.
How modifying or beginning unfolds
Contact us and share an general idea of what you need packed, your location in Peterborough, the quantity required, and whether we should replicate an existing supplier.
