Whatever your packaging requirements, from one sample to a complete range of products for an ongoing account, one factory and one team oversee the entire process.
We keep your artwork files on file, make sure colour matching remains consistent from the first order through to the tenth, and tell you frankly when a deadline is particularly demanding.
From your first sample to a reorder two years later, one dedicated contact oversees your enquiry, production and delivery. The specification is unchanged because the same person remains at the helm.

How the packing alters when it is established as a enduring vendor collaboration
An first order typically centres on the box itself: whether it fits properly, prints clearly and arrives on schedule.
A strong supplier relationship demonstrates its worth on order six, when the same product requires the same colour and fit, without you explaining the specification once more.
We manage board stock and ink mixing in our very own factory, helping to ensure colour and wall thickness remain the same from your first order through every reorder.
The team member creating your quotation is also the one who runs your job on the press.
When a reorder needs further explanation, they are the person to speak to directly for a straightforward answer.
Why Sutton-based firms choose our company’s packaging solutions
Absolutely no minimum purchase on any item.
We do not impose a minimum order requirement for anything we produce, meaning one sample and a five hundred unit reorder follow the same process.
We do not need a minimum volume to take on your job, and small orders never attract an additional charge.
This indicates that our growth is consistent with your Sutton business.
When the time comes to expand your business or extend your product range, our support will be there for you at every stage of the journey.
Single dedicated contact, starting from enquiry through to delivery
Your designated contact supports your account from initial enquiry through to delivery, so they know your spec when you are ready to reorder.
You are never put through from one department to another, nor required to repeat the details of your job each time you call.
Many eras of on-site manufacturing
From 1997, our parent business, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has managed printing presses in the UK.
That history indicates the board and ink suppliers helping with your order represent relationships built over decades, rather than sources newly located for each distinct commission.
We mix our own ink and maintain board stock ourselves, so colour matching is never reliant on a third-party printer understanding your brief.
Whatever you approve on the proof is exactly what leaves the factory!
Distribution adapted to your Sutton enterprise
We deliver across the country, wherever your business is situated, whether you want one sample or a complete pallet.
Our delivery service picks up from the same factory in Irvine on a set schedule, regardless of the size of the order or destination in Sutton.
Whether a lone box needs couriering for approval or several pallets must arrive for a launch date, one logistics process handles both, ensuring delivery remains reliable as orders grow.
Personalised creations created to suit your item
A number of products simply do not sit into a standard box.
Where yours has an atypical shape or unusual dimensions, we engineer the structure around it. Components requiring separation during transit receive the same careful approach, with their protection integrated into the structure from the outset rather than fitted afterwards.
Our design professionals assess your physical product rather than using only specifications. An initial sample verifies fit and operation before any unit proceeds to full production.
If the die cut requires refinement, we update it and provide a second sample instead of producing a batch that does not meet requirements.
Wrapping products from Custom Pack Workshop
Every item of packaging in our selection is made at our own factory, meaning that the finish approved from a sample is exactly the finish provided for an order of five hundred.
Whether it is custom packaging for a specific product line or the accessories that finish an order, everything is produced on one production line.
Crates and packages
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes meet countless retail and product packaging needs, with branding displayed on every panel so it continues to be visible wherever the container is placed on the shelf.
For jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with magnetic closure or a foil stamped lid does much of the selling before it has even been opened.
The standard of the board and the accuracy of its die cut are equally important here as the printing itself.
Paperboard post packaging and freight packaging
Postal mailer boxes are customised to your product’s dimensions, reducing void fill and preventing the damage an ill fitting box can cause in transit.
For larger or more substantial items, we make full colour corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons, while printed inserts keep the contents safely cushioned inside.
A gusseted box opens out to fit multiple items in one order, making it particularly suitable for a subscription box or bundle deal with contents that vary each month.
Packaging for the industry
Our top-quality packaging is created to accommodate a diverse range of products across various industries.
Cuisine packaging basics
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 expanding 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.
Luxury market
For jewellery and cosmetics, a fitted insert or foam cavity keeps each product firmly during transit, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination reflect the contents.
We create packaging that enhances your items and provides your brand a high-end feel.
Mail box and online brands
A squashed mailer can trigger a return or refund request, so online brands need a box tough enough to make its way through the courier network in one piece.
In addition, tailored packaging transforms opening the package into a remarkable unboxing experience.
Turning an opening into lasting customer loyalty and, at times, free online advertising.
Preserving all reshuffling in regularity
Your reorder is given exactly the same treatment as your first order. That means the same named contact, identical proofing process, and board and ink supplied by the same suppliers as before.
As your order grows, the per-unit price decreases, with the saving included in the pricing rather than relying on a discount code.
This price structure applies whether you need twenty boxes, several thousand restocked within a quarter, or a pallet secured for bulk delivery.
A matched reorder supplied by another supplier undergoes identical proofing and quality checks as a completely new design.
No item passes inspection simply because it looks like something you currently own.
Environmentally friendly sourcing from our top packaging site
Every box we make is 100% recyclable, contributing to a reduction in plastic and landfill waste.
We won’t add laminate only for a shiny finish if it makes a box more difficult to recycle, and we are moving away from single use plastic and EPS foam across the range.
Should a sustainability claim face scrutiny in a procurement audit, we would be pleased to discuss it with you in person or by telephone.
