Sustainable Packaging for Small Businesses
Packaging Supplier Rochester

From a single sample to a complete range of packaging products for an ongoing account, one factory and one dedicated team handle everything in one place.

We hold your artwork on file, match your colours on your tenth reorder just as on the first, and let you know candidly when a deadline is tight.

One dedicated contact manages your enquiry, production and delivery, from your initial sample through to a further order two years later. Your spec remains unchanged because the same person handles all aspects.

For a packaging supplier created to develop with your business, contact the welcoming team at Custom Pack Studio now.

How the packaging alters when it is established as a ongoing supplier alliance

An early order generally considers the box in question: whether it fits properly, prints effectively and arrives on schedule.

A solid supplier relationship demonstrates its worth on order six, when the same product requires the same colour and fit, without you having to explain the specification all over again.

We oversee board stock and ink mixing at our own factory, making sure colour and wall thickness remain consistent from your initial order through all later reorders.

The individual who prepares your quotation likewise manages its production on the press.

Should any aspect of a reorder require clarification, you can speak to them directly and receive a honest answer.

How come Rochester businesses select our packaging offerings

Absolutely no minimum purchase on all item

We do not impose minimum order quantities on anything we produce, so one sample and a five hundred unit reorder are handled through exactly the same process.

We do not require a minimum quantity before taking on your work, nor do we add an additional charge simply because the order is small.

This shows that our development is aligned with your Rochester business.

When the time comes to grow your business or product line, we will help you at each stage.

Just one named liaison from initial query to delivery

A single dedicated contact manages your account from the initial enquiry to delivery, keeping a clear understanding of your specification when you are ready to place another order.

You are never transferred between departments or asked to go over the job again to someone new whenever you call.

Many generations of in-house manufacturing

KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, the parent company of our business, has been operating presses in the UK since 1997.

That history means the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are long-standing contacts built over decades, rather than sourced afresh for each job.

As we mix ink and maintain our own board stock, colour matching is not dependent on a third party printer interpreting your brief.

The plant produces precisely what appears on the approved proof.

Supply tailored according to your Rochester enterprise

We deliver nationwide, wherever your business is located, whether you need a single sample or a full pallet.

In Rochester, our delivery service keeps to the same schedule from the same Irvine factory, whatever the order size or destination.

Whether you require one box couriered for approval or several pallets scheduled around a launch date, one reliable logistics process oversees everything, so delivery continues without change as your order grows.

Tailored designs created to enhance your item

Certain products simply do not sit into 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 built into the structure from the outset rather than added afterwards.

Your actual product is where our design process starts, instead of a specification sheet alone. Before full production starts, a first sample confirms its fit and function.

Should the die cut call for refinement, we amend it and provide a second sample rather than making an inappropriate batch.

Luminae Packaging - Custom Pack Studio

Wrapping items from Personalised Pack Studio

Every item of packaging in our range is produced within our own factory, ensuring the finish approved on your sample is precisely the finish supplied with an order of five hundred.

From custom packaging designed for a single product line to the accessories that complete each order, everything comes from one production line.

Packages and containers

Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes can hold varied retail and product packaging, with printing added to every panel to help ensure the branding in view regardless of how the container is oriented on a shelf.

For jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with magnetic closure or a foil stamped lid helps sell the product before it is even opened!

The standard of the board material and precision of the die cutting are just as important as the print itself.

Corrugated mailers and shipping packaging

Postal mailer boxes are manufactured to fit your product’s exact dimensions, minimising void fill and helping to prevent the damage that an ill-fitting box may cause during transport.

For larger or heavier products, we produce corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, whilst printed inserts safeguard the contents within.

A gusseted box opens out to hold multiple items in one order, making it suitable for subscription boxes or bundle deals whose contents vary monthly.

Packing solutions for your industry

Our high-quality packaging is designed to support a diverse range of products across numerous industries.

Edible packing components

We hold BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, and it is often the first detail our food packaging customers ask about, whether they run a small bakery or are a wholesale supplier moving into retail.

Food and drink packaging faces our highest requirements, because safety when touching the product takes priority over the box’s appearance.

Luxury end field

For jewellery and cosmetics, a shaped insert or foam recess keeps the contents from moving in transit, while foil stamping or soft touch lamination mirrors the product within.

We help you in developing packaging that enhances your goods, adding a luxurious feel for your brand.

Shipping parcels for ecommerce stores

A crushed mailer frequently leads to a request for a return or refund, making robust packaging necessary for e commerce brands that need boxes to withstand the courier network and reach their destination intact.

Furthermore, custom-made packaging transforms unboxing into a lasting experience.

Turning an opportunity into customer loyalty and, at times, complimentary online advertising!

Preserving all rearrangement consistently

A reorder adheres to the same procedure as a first order, using the same named contact and proofing process, with board and ink obtained from the same suppliers as before.

As your order grows, the unit cost falls, with savings built into the price, so there is no discount code to recall!

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

Even a matched reorder from another supplier is given identical proofing and quality checks as those applied to an brand-new design.

Nothing gets automatic approval just because it is similar to something you already had!

Eco-friendly procurement from our first-class packaging unit

Each box we manufacture is completely recyclable, helping to reduce plastic and landfill waste.

We won’t introduce laminate just for a glossy finish if it makes a box harder to recycle, and we are reducing our use of single use plastic and EPS foam across the range.

If you need a sustainability claim to withstand procurement audit scrutiny, we would be pleased to talk it through with you face to face or over the telephone.

How altering versus commencing functions

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

Request a sample through our free samples service when trialling new products or reviewing quality before placing a full order.

Approve the proof after our team has created the artwork, aligned it with any existing specification, and verified the pricing in writing.

Production and delivery typically require two to three weeks, while the majority of UK and Rochester addresses receive deliveries within one to two working days after dispatch.

When necessary, place a repeat order through the same named contact using the same specification held on file.
