Sustainable Packaging for Small Businesses
Packaging Supplier Stratford-upon-Avon

Regardless of 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 retain your artwork, match your colours as accurately on the tenth reorder as on the first, and speak honestly to you when a deadline is tight.

A dedicated representative oversees your request, manufacturing and delivery, from the initial sample to a reorder two years later. Because they remain part of the process, the specification stays unchanged.

For a packaging supplier created to develop with your business, call the helpful team at Custom Pack Studio today.

In what way differences happen once packaging turns into an sustained supplier connection

An first order typically centres on the box itself: whether it fits as intended, prints effectively and arrives as scheduled.

A supplier relationship is demonstrated on order six, when the same product needs the same colour and fit, without requiring you to restate the specification once more from the beginning.

We manage board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, ensuring colour and wall thickness stay consistent from your first order through every reorder.

The person providing a quote for your job runs it on the press too!

Should a repeat order need clarification, they are the person to contact directly for a straightforward, genuine answer.

Why Stratford-upon-Avon-based businesses choose our packaging solutions

There is no minimum buy on anything.

We have no minimum order requirement on any product we make, so one sample and a reorder of five hundred units are handled using identical procedures.

Whether the order is limited or substantial, we are ready to take it on, with no minimum volume required and no additional charge simply because it is modest.

In turn, we grow together with your Stratford-upon-Avon business.

When you are ready to develop your business or product line, we will be right beside you throughout every step of your journey!

One identified contact from enquiry to delivery

The same person continues to be responsible for your account from your initial enquiry through to delivery, already acquainted with your specifications when it is time to reorder.

You are never passed from one department to another, nor left repeating the details of your job every time you call.

Years of inhouse manufacturing

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

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

Since we mix our own ink and maintain board stock, colour matching does not depend on a third party printer interpreting your brief.

What you approve on the proof is exactly what leaves the factory!

Distribution customised to your Stratford-upon-Avon organisation

No matter where your business calls its base across the country, we supply from one sample to a full pallet.

Our delivery service collects all orders from the same Irvine factory according to the same schedule, regardless of its dimensions or destination in Stratford-upon-Avon.

Whether a lone box requires couriering for approval or multiple pallets must arrive for a launch date, one logistics process handles both, ensuring delivery remains reliable as orders expand.

Tailor Made Solutions Crafted Focussed on Your Item

Some products cannot be accommodated within a standard box.

If yours has an irregular shape or challenging dimension, we create the structure to fit it. Components requiring separation during transit receive the same approach, incorporated into the structure instead of being added later.

Your actual product is where our design journey begins, instead of a specification sheet alone. Before full production begins, a first sample confirms its fit and function.

If the die cut needs adjusting, we adjust it and create a second sample instead of creating an unusable batch.

Luminae Packaging - Custom Pack Studio

Enclosing products by Personalised Pack Studio

Every product in our packaging range is made at our own factory, so the finish approved on your sample is exactly what you receive when ordering five hundred.

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

Packages and carton boxes

Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes accommodate a wide range of retail and product packaging needs, with every panel printed to keep your branding in view wherever the container stands on a shelf.

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

The standard of the board material and precision of the die cutting are equally important as the print itself.

Corrugated mailers and despatch packaging

Postal mailer boxes are made to fit your product’s exact dimensions, reducing void fill and preventing the damage that an ill-fitting box may cause during delivery.

For larger or bulkier items, we make full colour corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons, while printed inserts help keep everything inside safely cushioned.

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

Packaging tailored to any sector

Our high-quality packaging is well-suited to many products across different industries.

Edible packaging provisions

Our BRC Global Packaging certification covers the High Hygiene level. It is usually the initial assurance food packaging customers seek, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers moving into retail.

Among all the categories we supply, food and drink packaging demands the highest level of care, because safety where packaging meets the product must always come before the box’s appearance.

Upscale sector

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

We assist you in creating packaging that complements your products, bringing a premium feel for your brand.

Mail containers and digital commerce labels

A squashed mailer can spark a return or refund request, so online brands need a box tough enough to make its way through the courier network undamaged.

Additionally, bespoke packaging transforms unboxing into a memorable experience.

Transforming an opportunity into customer loyalty and, on occasion, complimentary online advertising!

Ensuring every reshuffle homogeneous

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

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

This pricing approach applies equally to twenty boxes, several thousand replenished during a quarter, or a pallet secured for bulk delivery.

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

No item passes an inspection simply because it resembles something you already own.

Ethical sourcing from our premier packaging facility

Every box we produce is fully recyclable, helping to reduce both plastic rubbish and waste sent to landfill.

We will refrain from adding laminate solely for a glossy finish if adding it makes a box more difficult to recycle, as we reduce single use plastic and EPS foam across the range.

Should a sustainability statement require scrutiny during a procurement audit, we would be happy to discuss it with you either face to face or by telephone.

How switching or launching works

Contact us and provide an general idea of what you need packed, your location in Stratford-upon-Avon, the amount required, and whether we should replicate an existing supplier.

If you are considering new products or want to assess their quality before placing a complete order, you can request a sample through our complimentary samples service.

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

Production and delivery usually require two to three weeks, while most UK and Stratford-upon-Avon addresses get their deliveries within one to two working days after dispatch.

Reorder as required through the same named contact, using the specification on file.

Explore your right packaging solution with Custom Pack Studio now.

Call 01294 314 919 or email contact@custompackstudio.co.uk. If you are changing supplier, send your current spec or a sample of the existing box. We can quote against it directly instead of starting from scratch.

Starting anew works just as well.

Let us know what you are packing and the quantity required by phone, or start a design using our online design tool before placing your order. We will prepare a timely written quote, with no obligation to continue.

Your initial sample is free, and it is free again when an existing account moves over to us. In both cases, the person preparing your quotation will still be the same person managing your account in two years.

Regardless of your business location, we deliver throughout the UK directly to Stratford-upon-Avon from our Irvine factory.
