Sustainable Packaging for Small Businesses
Packaging Supplier Runcorn

Whatever your packaging requirements, from one sample to a complete range of products for an ongoing account, are managed by one factory and one dedicated team.

We retain your artwork on file, make sure colour matching remains consistent from the first order to the tenth, and advise you candidly when a deadline is especially demanding.

A one named contact manages your enquiry, production and delivery, from the initial sample to a reorder two years later. The specification stays consistent because the same person remains responsible.

For a packaging supplier created to grow with your business, get in touch with the welcoming team at Custom Pack Studio now.

Which alterations come about when wrapping transforms into an sustained vendor relationship

A first order primarily tests the box itself: whether it fits, prints accurately and arrives on time.

A supplier relationship becomes important on order six, when the same product needs the same colour and fit, without you having to explain the specification again from the beginning.

We oversee board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, making sure colour and wall thickness remain uniform from your first order through each repeat order.

The person quoting your job operates it on the press as well!

If any aspect of a reorder requires clarification, you can speak to them directly and receive a genuine answer.

Why Runcorn businesses opt for Our packing services

Absolutely no minimum purchase on every item

There is no minimum order for anything we produce, so a single sample or a repeat order of five hundred units follows exactly the same process!

We set no minimum volume requirement, and a small order will not attract an additional charge.

This shows that our progress is in line with your Runcorn business.

When you are ready to grow your business or widen your product range, we will be there for you at each stage of the process.

One designated contact from initial query to final delivery

One dedicated contact manages your account from your first enquiry to delivery, keeping a clear understanding of your specification when you are prepared to place another order.

You are never passed between departments or required to explain the job again to a new member of the team whenever you call.

Decades of in-house manufacturing

Our parent company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has operated presses in the UK since 1997.

This background helps ensure that the board and ink suppliers working on your order are established relationships built over decades, rather than sourced anew for each incoming job.

Because we prepare ink and keep board stock in house, colour matching does not rely on a third party printer interpreting your brief.

The factory makes exactly what is signed off on the proof.

Distribution adapted to your Runcorn company

We ship nationwide, wherever your business is located, from a single sample to a full pallet.

Every order is collected by our delivery service from the Irvine factory under one schedule, regardless of its size or destination in Runcorn.

Whether you need one box couriered for approval or several pallets planned around a launch date, the same logistics process handles everything, ensuring delivery remains unchanged as the order grows.

Bespoke creations developed centred on your product

A few products do not fit within a conventional box.

When yours presents an irregular shape or awkward dimension, we form the structure to accommodate it. Components needing separation during transit are integrated within it, never fitted later.

Our design department uses your actual product rather than depending entirely on a specification sheet. An first sample verifies fit and function before any unit proceeds to full production.

If the die cut requires refinement, we refine it and send another sample instead of creating a batch that fails to work.

Luminae Packaging - Custom Pack Studio

Packing goods by Personalised Pack Studio

All packaging in our range is manufactured at our own factory, ensuring the finish approved on a sample matches the finish supplied in an order of five hundred.

Whether it’s custom packaging for a single product line or the accessories that finish an order, everything is produced on one production line.

Packages and cases

Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes are suitable for a broad range of retail and product packaging, with printing on every panel to keep your branding in view regardless of how the container is placed on a shelf.

For jewellery and gift-giving, a rigid box with magnetic closure or a foil stamped lid performs much of the selling before it has even been opened.

The quality of the board and the precision of its die cut are equally important here as the printing itself.

Corrugated mailers plus dispatch packaging

Postal mailer boxes are made to fit your goods, rather than a generic size, cutting down on wasted space and damage resulting in transit by a poorly fitted box.

For bulkier or bigger items, we manufacture full colour corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons, while printed inserts protect and cushion their contents.

A gusseted box expands to accommodate multiple items in one order, making it well suited for a subscription box or bundle deal whose contents vary each month.

Packaging customised to each business area

Our top-tier packaging is carefully designed to accommodate products across a broad range of industries.

Cuisine packaging materials

We hold BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, often serving as the first assurance our food packaging customers seek, from small bakeries to wholesale suppliers moving into retail.

Packaging for food and drinks must meet the strictest standards of every category we supply, because product contact safety takes precedence over appearance.

Upscale field

For jewellery and cosmetics, a tailored insert or foam recess keeps items from moving during transit, while finishes including foil stamping or soft touch lamination echo the product within.

We assist you create packaging that enhances your items and gives your brand a premium feel.

Mail parcels and online brands

A crushed mailer can lead to a return or refund request, so e commerce brands need a box tough enough to make its way through the courier network undamaged.

Moreover, custom-made packaging transforms opening the package into a lasting unboxing experience.

Turning an opening into customer loyalty and, from time to time, free online advertising!

Keeping every reshuffle uniform

When a reorder is received, we handle it as a first order, keeping the same named contact, following the identical proofing process, and sourcing board and ink from the same suppliers as before.

As order quantities increase, the price per unit falls, with savings already included in the pricing, leaving no discount code to remember.

The same pricing covers twenty boxes, a few thousand replenished during a quarter, or a pallet secured for bulk delivery.

A matching reorder supplied by another supplier receives the same proofing and quality checks as a brand-new design.

Nothing passes simply because it is similar to something you already possessed.

Eco-friendly acquisition from our leading packaging site

Every box we produce is 100% recyclable, contributing to a reduction in plastic and landfill waste.

We will avoid adding laminate just for a glossy finish if doing so makes a box harder to recycle, while reducing single use plastic and EPS foam throughout the range.

Should your sustainability claim need to withstand a procurement audit, we would be delighted to talk it through with you in person or over the phone.

How swapping or beginning happens

Contact us with details of what you need packed, your address in Runcorn, the quantity needed, and whether we should match an existing supplier.

If you are exploring new products or would like to evaluate their quality before submitting a full order, ask for a sample through our free samples service.

Approve the proof after our team has created the artwork, checked against any existing spec and confirmed pricing in writing.

Production and delivery generally require two to three weeks, while the majority of UK and Runcorn addresses get their orders within one to two working days after dispatch.

Reorder whenever needed via the same named contact, with the same specification already on file.
