Which alterations arise when packaging becomes an enduring supplier relationship with Sheffield
A first order primarily tests the box itself: whether it is the right fit, prints correctly and arrives as scheduled.
A supplier relationship is proven on order six, when the same product calls for the same colour and fit, without requiring you to restate the specification again from scratch.
By overseeing board stock and ink mixing within our own factory, we ensure that colour and wall thickness remain consistent from your first order through every later reorder.
The person who puts together your quotation likewise manages its production on the press.
Questions about a reorder go directly to them for a clear, honest answer.
Why Sheffield-owned firms choose our company’s packaging solutions
No need for a minimum purchase on all product
We impose no minimum order on any product we produce, so one sample and a reorder of five hundred units are handled using identical procedures.
Whether the order is small or considerable, we are ready to take it on, with no minimum order quantity required and no extra fee simply because it is modest.
This shows we develop along with your Sheffield business.
When you are ready to grow your business or broaden your product range, our support will remain with you at every stage of the journey.
Sole assigned representative, from question to delivery
A single dedicated contact stays with your account from the initial enquiry to delivery, so your order details is already known when you are ready to place another order.
You are never transferred between teams, or required to repeat the details of the job to a new person whenever you call.
Countless decades of internal manufacturing
Our group company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has operated presses in the UK since 1997.
This background means the board and ink suppliers working on your order are well-established partners, built over decades rather than newly sourced for each individual job.
As we prepare ink and keep board stock in house, colour matching does not rely on a third party printer understanding your brief.
What you approve in the proof is precisely what leaves the factory!
Distribution crafted in line with your Sheffield operation
We deliver nationwide, wherever your business is based, whether you need one sample or a full pallet.
Our delivery service picks up from the same factory in Irvine according to a regular schedule, regardless of order size or destination within Sheffield.
Whether you are seeking a single box delivered for sign-off or multiple pallets scheduled for a launch date, one consistent logistics process coordinates both, ensuring delivery remains unchanged as your order grows.
Bespoke designs created to suit your product
Some products cannot be accommodated inside a standard box.
If yours has an atypical shape or challenging dimensions, we create the structure to fit it precisely. Components requiring separation during transit receive the same considered treatment, incorporated into the structure from the beginning rather than introduced later.
Our design specialists evaluate your physical product rather than depending entirely on a specification sheet. An initial sample confirms fit and performance before any item enters full production.
If the die cut needs adjustment, we adjust it and dispatch a second sample rather than producing a batch that is not suitable.
Packing products by Custom Pack Studio
Every item in our packaging range is manufactured at our own factory, so the finish approved on your sample is precisely what you receive when ordering five hundred.
From custom packaging designed for a single product line to the accessories that complete each order, everything comes from one production line.
Boxes and containers
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes work well for different retail and product packaging, with each panel printed so branding remains visible wherever containers are positioned.
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.
In this case, good-quality board and an exact die cut are equally important as the printing itself.
Corrugated mailers and delivery packaging
Postal mailer boxes are produced to suit your product’s dimensions, helping to reduce void fill and helping to prevent the damage a poorly fitted box can cause during transit.
For bigger or more substantial items, we make corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in complete colour, while printed inserts provide cushioning for the contents.
A gusseted box opens out to fit several items in one order, making it ideal for subscription boxes or bundle deals whose contents differ each month.
Packing solutions for the industry
Our top-grade packaging is particularly suitable to diverse products across various industries.
Cuisine packaging necessities
We maintain BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, frequently being the first assurance our food packaging customers seek, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers moving into retail.
Of every category we offer, food and drink packaging is governed by the most rigorous requirements, as maintaining safe contact with the product takes priority over the box’s visual appeal.
High-end segment
For jewellery and cosmetics, a shaped insert or foam recess prevents movement during transit, while foil stamping or soft touch lamination echoes the product within.
We help design packaging that complements your items and provides your brand a high-end feel.
Mail box and online companies
A damaged mailer can lead to a return or refund request, so e commerce brands need a box durable enough to pass through the delivery network undamaged.
What’s in addition, bespoke packaging makes opening your order a a memorable unboxing experience!
Converting an opening into customer loyalty and, at times, complimentary online advertising.
Sustaining each reshuffling in consistency
We handle every reorder as we would a first order, retaining the same named contact and proofing process, while obtaining the board and ink from the same suppliers as previously.
As your order grows, the reduced unit cost is shown directly in the quoted price, so there is no discount code to keep in mind.
The identical pricing structure is applicable to twenty boxes, several thousand replenished within a quarter, and even a pallet prepared for bulk delivery.
Even a matched reorder from another supplier receives the same proofing and quality checks as those applied to an entirely new design.
Nothing is accepted solely because it is intended to resemble something you already had.
Green sourcing from our leading packaging facility
Each box we produce is completely recyclable, which helps reduce plastic and landfill waste.
We will avoid adding laminate solely for a glossy finish if it makes a box more difficult to recycle. We are also 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.
