From one sample to a complete packaging range for a long-term account, one factory and team handle every requirement.
We store your artwork securely on file, reproduce your colours just as accurately on the tenth reorder as on the first, and inform you promptly if a deadline looks tight.
A named contact oversees your enquiry, production and dispatch, from the first sample to a reorder two years later. Because they remain part of the process, the specification stays consistent.
In need of a packaging supplier designed to grow alongside your business? Speak to the friendly team at Custom Pack Studio today!
How packaging alters when it becomes a enduring supplier partnership
An initial order primarily concerns the box itself: whether its dimensions are suitable, whether it prints effectively, and whether it is delivered punctually.
A solid supplier relationship shows its value on order six, when the same product requires the same colour and fit, without you having to explain the specification from scratch.
We manage board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, helping to keep colour and wall thickness consistent from your first order through every reorder.
The person putting together your quote will likewise operate your job on the press.
Should a repeat order need clarification, they are the person to contact directly for a clear, genuine answer.
Why Poole-led businesses trust our packaging options
Absolutely no minimum quantity required on every item
We do not impose a minimum order for any products we make, so one sample and a five hundred unit reorder go through the same process.
Whether the order is small or considerable, we are happy to accept it, with no minimum volume required and no extra fee simply because it is modest.
This means we grow together with your Poole business.
When the time comes to grow your business or broaden your product range, our support will remain with you at every stage of the journey.
A dedicated contact, from enquiry to delivery
A single dedicated contact handles your account from initial enquiry through to delivery and understands your details when you are next ready to reorder.
You are never passed between departments or expected to explain the job again to a different member of the team whenever you telephone.
Several years of onsite manufacturing
Our holding company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has run presses in the UK since 1997.
That history means the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are trusted relationships nurtured over decades, rather than new sources found for every incoming job.
We mix ink and hold board stock in house, so colour matching is not dependent on a third party printer understanding your brief.
What you approve in the proof is precisely what leaves the factory!
Distribution customised according to your Poole enterprise
We send nationwide to your business, whether you need a single sample or a full pallet.
Each order is collected by our delivery service from the Irvine factory according to a single schedule, regardless of its size or destination in Poole.
Whether a single box needs couriering for approval or multiple pallets need to arrive for a launch date, one logistics process manages both, ensuring delivery remains consistent as orders grow.
Customised concepts crafted around your product
Some products do not sit within a standard box.
When yours has an uncommon shape or awkward dimensions, we create the structure to accommodate it. Components requiring separation during transit are treated with the same care, being built into the structure instead of being added at a later stage.
Our design specialists assesses your actual product rather than relying solely on a specification sheet. An initial sample checks fit and function before full production gets under way.
If the die cut needs modification, we adjust it and send a second sample instead of creating an unusable batch.
Packing products from Custom Pack Studio
All packaging in our collection is made in our own factory, so that the finish approved from a sample is identical to the finish supplied for an order of five hundred.
From bespoke packaging designed for a single product line to the accessories that complete each order, everything emerges from one production line.
Boxes and boxes
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes suit a wide range of retail and product packaging needs, with branding printed on every panel so it stays visible wherever the container rests on the shelf.
When it comes to jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid starts selling the product before it has even been opened.
Premium quality board material and an accurate die cut are just as important here as the print itself.
Recycled cardboard mail envelopes and freight packaging
Postal mailer boxes are made to fit your product’s exact dimensions, reducing void fill and avoiding the damage that an ill-fitting box may cause during transport.
For bigger or bulkier products, we produce corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, while printed inserts protect the contents within.
A gusseted box opens out to contain multiple items in one order, making it suitable for a subscription box or bundle deal whose contents vary each month.
Packaging personalised to the industry
Our top-tier packaging is well suited to varied products across many industries.
Catering packaging supplies
We hold 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 moving into retail.
Food and drink packaging is subject to the strictest requirements of every category we supply, because product contact safety outweighs the box’s appearance.
Upscale industry
When jewellery and cosmetics are transported, a fitted insert or foam cavity holds each product securely, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination reflect what lies within.
We help you create packaging that complements your products and adds a luxurious feel to your brand.
Post boxes and internet businesses
A damaged mailer often results in a return or refund request, so e-commerce brands need a box designed to withstand the courier network intact.
Furthermore, tailored packaging provides a memorable unboxing experience.
Turning an opening into lasting customer loyalty and, on occasion, free online advertising.
Maintaining each reshuffle consistently
When a reorder arrives, we handle it as a first order, keeping the same named contact, following the identical proofing process, and sourcing board and ink from the suppliers used previously.
Larger orders bring down the unit cost, with the reduction included in the stated price instead of requiring a discount code to be applied.
This pricing structure applies in the same way to twenty boxes, several thousand restocked during a quarter, or a pallet arranged for bulk delivery.
A matched reorder obtained from a different supplier undergoes the same proofing and quality checks as a new design.
No item gets automatic approval just because it looks like something you already had!
Sustainable procurement from our renowned packaging centre
Every box we produce is completely recyclable, helping to reduce plastic and landfill waste.
We won’t add laminate only for a shiny finish if it makes a box more difficult to recycle, and we are moving away from single use plastic and EPS foam throughout the range.
If you require a sustainability claim to stand up to procurement audit scrutiny, we would be delighted to discuss it with you in person or over the telephone.
How transitioning or beginning operates
