Sustainable Packaging for Small Businesses
Packaging Supplier Rushden

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

We hold your artwork on file, reproduce your colours on your tenth reorder just as on the first, and tell you honestly when a deadline is tight.

One sole contact manages your query, production and delivery, from the first sample to a reorder after two years. The specification continues unchanged because the same person handles everything!

In need of a packaging supplier designed to grow alongside your business? Contact the friendly team at Custom Pack Studio today!

How packing changes when it turns into a sustained vendor association

When that initial order comes in, the focus shifts to the box: its fit, its print quality, and whether it reaches you by the expected time.

A relationship with a supplier earns trust by order six, when an identical product requires the same colour and fit, without requiring the specification again.

We handle board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, ensuring colour and wall thickness remain consistent from your first order to every reorder.

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

Any questions about a reorder should be directed straight to them for a straightforward, genuine answer.

Why Rushden-owned businesses opt for the packaging packages

Zero minimum spend on every product

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

As a result, we grow with your Rushden business.

Once you are ready to expand your business or product line, we will assist you along your journey.

A dedicated contact, beginning with enquiry until delivery

One dedicated contact manages your account from initial enquiry through to delivery and knows your specification when you are ready to reorder.

You will not be transferred between departments or left having to explain the job again to someone new each time you call.

Decades of domestic production

From 1997, our parent business, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has operated printing presses in the UK.

That tradition means the board and ink suppliers helping with your order represent relationships established over decades, rather than sources newly identified for each individual commission.

We mix our own ink and hold board stock ourselves, so colour matching is never reliant on a third-party printer understanding your instructions.

The plant makes precisely what is approved on the proof.

Shipment adapted according to your Rushden venture

We send nationwide to your organisation, whether you need one sample or a complete pallet.

Every order is collected by our delivery service from the Irvine factory according to one schedule, irrespective of its size or destination in Rushden.

Whether you want a one box sent for approval or several pallets planned around a launch date, a single logistics process covers both, so that delivery remains unchanged as the order expands.

Made-to-order creations created for your item.

Some products do not fit within a standard box.

If yours has an unusual shape or difficult dimensions, we create the structure to suit it exactly. Components that require separation during transit receive the same considered treatment, integrated into the structure from the beginning rather than introduced later.

Our design department works with your actual product rather than relying solely on a specification sheet. An first sample checks fit and function before any unit proceeds to full production.

If the die cut needs modification, we make the necessary changes and create a second sample instead of producing an unusable batch.

Luminae Packaging - Custom Pack Studio

Packing goods by Custom Packaging Studio

Every item of packaging in our collection is crafted within our own factory, ensuring the finish signed off on your sample is exactly the finish supplied with an order of five hundred.

From tailor-made packaging for a single product line to the accessories finishing an order, everything is manufactured on one production line.

Cases and cartons

Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes suit many retail and packaging demands. Printing extends across every panel, helping ensure the branding remains visible regardless of how the container sits on a shelf.

For jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid does a lot of the selling before it is even opened.

Top quality board material and an exact die cut are just as important here as the print itself.

Paperboard mailers and postal packaging

Postal mailer boxes are designed to fit your item, rather than a uniform size, minimising wasted space and damage caused in transit by a ill-fitting box.

For larger or heavier items, we produce corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, while printed inserts provide cushioning for the contents.

A gusseted box opens out to accommodate multiple items in one order, making it well suited for a subscription box or bundle deal with contents that differ each month.

Packaging options for your industry

Our premium packaging is ideal for a wide range of products across various industries.

Meal wrapping provisions

We have BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, and it is often the initial point our food packaging customers enquire about, whether they operate a small bakery or are a wholesale supplier expanding into retail.

Food and drink packaging is subject to the strictest requirements of all the categories we supply, because product contact safety outweighs the box’s look.

Luxury sector

For jewellery and cosmetics, a tailored insert or foam recess prevents movement in transit, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination complement the product within.

We assist you in creating packaging that complements your products and adds a luxurious feel to your brand.

Letter box alongside e-commerce names

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 cope with the courier network and remain undamaged on arrival.

Furthermore, custom-made packaging makes the opening of your order memorable.

Transforming an opening into loyal customers and, sometimes, complimentary online advertising!

Ensuring every re-arrangement orderly

We process every reorder in exactly the same way as a initial order, using the same named contact, identical proofing procedure, and board and ink from the suppliers used previously.

As order quantities increase, the price per unit falls, with savings built into the pricing, leaving you with no discount code to remember.

This pricing structure is applied equally to twenty boxes, several thousand replenished during a quarter, or a pallet arranged for bulk delivery.

A matched reorder from another supplier undergoes the same proofing process and quality checks as a brand-new design.

No item is approved without scrutiny merely because it is intended to look like something you already possessed.

Sustainable sourcing from our leading packaging plant

Each box we make is fully recyclable, which helps reduce plastic and landfill waste.

We will not add laminate just to create a glossy finish if this makes a box harder to recycle, and we are discontinuing 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 pleased to discuss it with you face to face or by telephone.

How changing or initiating operates

Please contact us with an rough description of what you need to pack, where you are based in Rushden, the number required, and whether we need to replicate an existing supplier.

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

Sign off on the proof after our team has created the artwork, matched it to any existing specification and confirmed the pricing in writing.

Production and delivery generally require two to three weeks, while most UK and Rushden addresses get their orders within one to two working days after dispatch.

Order again whenever you need, with the same named contact and specification already on file!

Call 01294 314 919 or email contact@custompackstudio.co.uk. If you are moving from another supplier, send us your current specification or a sample of the existing box, allowing us to quote directly against it rather than beginning with a blank page.

Beginning afresh can be equally effective.

Tell us what you are packing and the quantity required, either by phone or by beginning a design with our online design tool before ordering, and we will send without delay a written quotation, with no pressure to commit.

A free sample comes with your initial order, and again when an existing account switches to us. More importantly, whoever puts together your quotation will be the same person looking after your account two years later.

We deliver all over the UK directly to Rushden from our Irvine factory, no matter where your business is based.
