Whatever your packaging needs, from one sample to a full range of products for an ongoing account, are handled by one factory and one dedicated team.
We retain your artwork securely on file, reproduce your colours with the same accuracy on the tenth reorder as on the first, and inform you promptly if a deadline appears challenging.
One dedicated contact oversees your enquiry, production and delivery, from your initial sample through to a reorder two years later. Your spec remains unchanged because the same person manages the entire process.

What kind of changes arise when packaging becomes an ongoing supplier relationship with Rustington
A first order is primarily about the box in question: will it fit, print well and be delivered on time?
A business relationship shows its value on order six, when the same product requires the same colour and fit, with no need to explain the specification once more.
By handling board stock and ink mixing within our own factory, we ensure that colour and wall thickness remain consistent from your first order through every subsequent reorder.
The person pricing your job also runs it on the press.
When a reorder needs further explanation, they are the person to contact directly for a straightforward answer.
Why Rustington-led enterprises select our own packaging options
There is no minimum buy on everything.
We do not impose minimum order quantities on any products we make, meaning one sample and a five hundred unit reorder go through precisely the same process.
Whether the order is small or considerable, we are ready to take it on, with no minimum order quantity required and no additional charge simply because it is limited.
This means we grow alongside your Rustington business.
When you are ready to expand your business or product line, we will be right beside you throughout the entire course of your journey!
A single named contact throughout enquiry until delivery
The same designated contact manages your account from your initial enquiry through to delivery, already knowing your specification when you are ready to reorder.
You speak to one dedicated team, so you are not required to explain the job again to a different person when you call.
Decades of in-house manufacturing
Since 1997, our parent business, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has operated printing presses in the UK.
This history indicates the board and ink suppliers working on your order are well-established partners, developed over decades rather than newly sourced for each new job.
Because we prepare ink and hold board stock in house, colour matching never depends on a third party printer understanding your brief.
The version approved on the proof is the same as what leaves the plant.
Despatch tailored to your Rustington business
Wherever your business is located in the country, we send out everything from one sample to a complete pallet!
Our delivery service collects every order from the same Irvine factory according to one schedule, regardless of its size or destination in Rustington.
Whether you need a single box couriered for approval or multiple pallets scheduled for a launch date, one consistent logistics process coordinates both, ensuring delivery stays consistent as your order grows.
Custom Solutions Crafted Around Your Item
Some products do not fit inside a standard box.
Where yours has an unusual shape or challenging dimensions, we build the structure around it. Components needing separation during transit are given the same thoughtful approach, with their protection integrated into the structure from the outset rather than fitted afterwards.
Our design team uses your real product rather than depending entirely on a specification sheet. An early sample checks fit and function before any unit goes into full production.
If the die cut needs adjusting, we adjust it and prepare a second sample instead of producing a batch that does not meet requirements.
Packing products by Custom Pack Studio
All packaging from our collection is produced in our own factory, meaning the finish approved from a sample is identical to the finish supplied for an order of five hundred.
From bespoke packaging for one product line to the accessories that complete every order, everything is made on a one production line.
Packages and boxes
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes work well for a wide range of retail and product packaging, with printing on every panel to help keep your branding in view regardless of how the container is arranged on a shelf.
When considering jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with magnetic closure or a foil stamped lid helps sell the product before it is even revealed!
High-quality board material and accurate die cutting are equally important here as the printing itself.
Cardboard mailers plus delivery packaging
Postal mailer boxes are made 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 weightier or more sizeable items, we produce full colour corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons, while printed inserts help protect and cushion their contents.
A gusseted box increases in size to contain multiple items in one order, making it appropriate for a subscription box or bundle deal whose contents differ each month.
Packaging customised to your own industry
Our high-quality packaging is ideal for diverse products across numerous industries.
Meal wrapping supplies
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 branching into retail.
Of every category we provide, food and drink packaging is governed by the most demanding requirements, as ensuring safe contact with the product takes priority over the box’s visual appeal.
Premium field
For cosmetics, a customised insert or foam recess limits movement during transit, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination complement the product within.
We help design packaging that complements your items and adds your brand a high-end feel.
Postal box and online businesses
When a mailer arrives at its destination crushed, it often prompts a return or refund request, making durable packaging essential for ecommerce brands managing courier networks.
What’s moreover, bespoke packaging turns opening your order into a memorable unboxing experience!
Turning an opening into customer loyalty and, on occasion, complimentary online advertising.
Ensuring every reshuffle uniform
When a reorder arrives, we handle it as a first order, keeping the same named contact, using the identical proofing process, and sourcing board and ink from the suppliers used previously.
As order quantities increase, the unit price decreases, with the savings already reflected in the pricing, leaving you with no discount code to remember.
This pricing structure covers equally twenty boxes, several thousand restocked during a quarter, or a pallet arranged for bulk delivery.
A matching reorder provided by another supplier is put through identical proofing and quality checks as a completely new design.
Nothing is accepted just because it resembles something you already possessed.
Ethical sourcing from our first-class packaging centre
Each box we create is 100% recyclable, contributing to a reduction in plastic and landfill waste.
We will not add laminate solely for a glossy finish if it makes a box harder to recycle. We are also reducing single use plastic and EPS foam throughout 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 by telephone.
