Sustainable Packaging for Small Businesses
Packaging Supplier Southport

Whatever your packaging requirements, from a single sample to a complete range of products for an ongoing account, one factory and one team handle everything.

We keep your artwork securely in our records, match your colours just as accurately on the tenth reorder as on the first, and inform you promptly if a deadline looks tight.

A dedicated contact oversees your enquiry, production and dispatch, from the first sample to a reorder two years later. Because they remain involved, the specification stays consistent.

For a packaging supplier created to expand with your business, get in touch with the friendly team at Custom Pack Studio today.

How the packing shifts when it is established as a long-term provider relationship

When that first order arrives, the focus shifts to the box: its fit, its print quality, and whether it gets to you by the expected time.

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

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

The team member preparing your quote will also operate your job on the press.

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

Reasons Southport businesses pick our company’s packaging offerings

There is no minimum spend on every listing

We impose no minimum order on all products we make, so one sample and a reorder of five hundred units are handled using identical procedures.

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

This means we expand along with your Southport company.

Whenever you are ready to expand your business or product line, we will be alongside you throughout each stage of your journey!

One dedicated contact, from enquiry to dispatch

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

You are not passed around between departments or asked to explain the job again to someone new each time you call.

Years of internal manufacturing

KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, our parent company, has run printing presses in the UK since 1997.

That heritage indicates the board and ink suppliers helping with your order embody relationships developed over decades, rather than sources newly located for every separate commission.

As we prepare the ink and maintain our own board stock, your colour match is not dependent on an external printer’s interpretation of your brief.

The factory manufactures exactly what is approved on the proof.

Shipping crafted for your Southport business

Wherever in the country your business calls home across the country, we deliver from one sample to a full pallet.

Our delivery service collects every order from the same Irvine factory according to a single schedule, regardless of its dimensions or destination in Southport.

Whether you want a one box submitted for approval or several pallets planned around a launch date, one logistics process handles both, ensuring delivery stays consistent as the order increases.

Bespoke concepts created for your item

Some products do not fit within a standard box.

If your item has an irregular shape or awkward dimension, we engineer the structure to fit it exactly. Components that need separating in transit are integrated into the structure, rather than added afterwards.

Our design professionals assess your physical product rather than relying solely on specifications. An initial sample confirms fit and operation before any unit enters full production.

If the die cut requires adjustment, we modify it and dispatch another sample rather than making a batch that is not suitable.

Luminae Packaging - Custom Pack Studio

Boxing goods from Custom Pack Workshop

Every item of packaging in our selection is produced at our own factory, which ensures that the finish agreed from a sample is precisely the finish supplied for an order of five hundred.

From bespoke packaging for one product line to the accessories that finish off each order, everything is produced on a one production line.

Packages and packages

Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes meet a wide range of retail and product packaging needs, with branding featured on every panel so it remains visible wherever the container is placed on the 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.

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

Corrugated delivery packs and shipping packaging

Postal mailer boxes are produced to match your product’s dimensions, helping to reduce void fill and helping to prevent the damage a ill-fitting box can cause in transit.

For more sizeable products, we make corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, while printed inserts cushion items placed inside.

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

Containers customised to the business area

Our high-quality packaging is suitable for a wide range of products across different industries.

Catering packaging provisions

We maintain 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.

Food and drink packaging faces the toughest requirements across everything we supply, because keeping products safe in contact is far more important than the appearance of the box.

Elite industry

For jewellery and cosmetics, a shaped insert or foam recess helps prevent movement while in transit, while foil stamping or soft touch lamination mirrors the product within.

We assist you design packaging that enhances your items and gives your brand a luxurious feel.

Post boxes and ecommerce companies

A mailer arriving crushed frequently leads to a request for a return or refund, so e-commerce brands need a box designed to withstand the courier network and arrive intact.

Furthermore, custom-made packaging turns unboxing into a memorable experience.

Turning an opportunity into loyalty from customers and, at times, no-cost online advertising!

Ensuring all reorder steady

We handle every reorder in the same way as a first order, retaining the same named contact, proofing process, and board and ink suppliers as previously.

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

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

A matched reorder from another supplier receives the same proofing procedure and rigorous quality checks as an completely new design.

No item is accepted without scrutiny merely because it is designed to resemble something you already possessed.

Eco-friendly procurement from our first-class packaging facility

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

We will not add laminate solely for a glossy finish if doing so makes a box harder to recycle, and we are reducing our use of single use plastic and EPS foam across the range.

If a sustainability claim needs to withstand a procurement audit, we are pleased to talk it through in person or over the telephone.

How altering or beginning proceeds

Please get in touch with us with an general summary of the items you need packed, your location in Southport, the quantity required, and whether an existing supplier needs to be matched.

If you are testing new products or wish to assess their quality before submitting a full order, request a sample through our free samples service.

Authorise the proof after our team finishes the artwork, adheres to any existing specification and sets out the pricing in writing.

Production and delivery usually take two to three weeks, while most UK and Southport addresses receive their orders within one to two working days following dispatch.

As needed, reorder through the same named contact, using the specification already held on file.
