Which modifications emerge when packaging becomes an ongoing supplier relationship with Wakefield
A first order mainly concerns the box itself: whether its measurements are appropriate, whether it prints well, and whether it arrives on time.
A supplier relationship becomes important on order six, when the same product requires the same colour and fit, without you needing to explain the specification again from the beginning.
We oversee board stock and ink mixing at our own factory, helping to ensure colour and wall thickness stay consistent from your first order through all later reorders.
The person who provides a quote for your job also prints it on the press.
Should any aspect of a reorder require clarification, you can contact them directly and receive a straightforward answer.
The reasons Wakefield businesses choose our company’s packaging offerings
No minimum purchase on all products.
There is no minimum order for anything we produce, so a single sample or a reorder of five hundred units goes through exactly the same process!
We do not need a minimum volume before taking on your work, nor do we apply an additional charge simply because the order is small.
This shows we develop in step with your Wakefield business.
When the moment arrives to grow your business or broaden your product range, we will support you at all stages of the journey.
A dedicated dedicated contact, from query to completion
The same person continues handling your account from initial enquiry to delivery, already acquainted with your specifications when you come to reorder.
You are not passed between departments, or required to explain the job again to a different person whenever you call.
Several eras of on-site manufacturing
Our wider company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has managed printing presses in the UK from 1997.
That background means the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are trusted relationships developed over decades, not new sources found for each incoming job.
As we prepare the ink and keep our own board stock, your colour match does not rely on an external printer’s interpretation of your brief.
The version approved on the proof is exactly what leaves the factory.
Despatch customised around your Wakefield venture
We provide delivery throughout the country, wherever your business is based, whether you require one sample or a complete pallet.
Every order is collected by our delivery service from the Irvine factory under one schedule, irrespective of its size or destination in Wakefield.
Whether you require a single box provided for approval or multiple pallets arranged for a launch date, the same logistics process handles both, ensuring delivery continues in the same way as the order increases.
Bespoke styles developed to suit your product.
Some products exceed the measurements of a regular box.
When yours has an uncommon shape or challenging dimensions, we engineer the structure to accommodate it. Components that require separation during transit are treated with the same care, being built into the structure instead of being added afterwards.
Our design department evaluates 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.
Should the die cut need adjustment, we amend it and produce a second sample rather than producing an inappropriate batch.
Packing products from Tailored Pack Studio
Every product 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.
All items from bespoke packaging for one product line to the accessories included with an order is produced on one production line.
Cases and cartons
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes work well for a diverse range of retail and product packaging, with printing on every panel to ensure your branding in view regardless of how the container is positioned on a shelf.
For jewellery and gifts, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid begins selling the product before it is opened at all.
Superior board material and precise die cutting are equally important here as the printing itself.
Recycled cardboard letter packaging and shipping packaging
Postal mailer boxes are manufactured to fit your product’s exact dimensions, minimising void fill and helping to prevent the damage that an poorly fitting box may cause during transport.
For bulkier or more substantial items, we manufacture full colour corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons, while printed inserts keep everything inside safely cushioned.
A gusseted box expands to accommodate multiple items in one order, making it well suited for subscription boxes or bundle deals whose contents change monthly.
Wrapping adapted to each industry
Our top-grade packaging is ideally suited to a wide range of products across numerous industries.
Food packaging materials
We maintain BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, and it is often the initial point our food packaging customers enquire about, whether they run a small bakery or are a wholesale supplier branching into retail.
Of every category we offer, food and drink packaging is governed by the most demanding requirements, as maintaining safe contact with the product takes priority over the box’s visual appeal.
Luxury end field
When jewellery and cosmetics are transported, a fitted insert or foam cavity keeps each product safely, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination reflect what lies within.
We assist you in creating packaging that complements your products and adds a luxurious feel to your brand.
Mail boxes for internet businesses
A squashed mailer often results in a return or refund request, so e-commerce brands need a box designed to get through the courier network intact.
Additionally, tailored packaging makes the opening of your order memorable.
Turning an opening into customer loyalty and, occasionally, free online advertising!
Maintaining every re-arrangement uniform
When a reorder comes in, we treat it as a first order, keeping the same named contact, following the identical proofing process, and sourcing board and ink from the previously used suppliers.
As your order grows, the lower unit cost is reflected directly in the quoted price, so there is no discount code to enter.
This pricing structure applies in the same way to twenty boxes, several thousand replenished during a quarter, or a pallet arranged for bulk delivery.
A matched reorder procured from another supplier undergoes the same proofing and quality checks as a new design.
Everything is assessed independently, even when created to resemble something you previously owned.
Responsible sourcing from our premier packaging plant
Every box we make is completely recyclable, helping to minimise both plastic waste and waste sent to landfill.
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.
If you need a sustainability claim to withstand procurement audit scrutiny, we would be delighted to talk it through with you face to face or over the telephone.
How modifying or commencing functions
Please contact us with an approximate outline of what you need to pack, your location in Wakefield, the amount required, and whether an existing supplier needs to be matched.
If you are considering new products or want to assess their quality before placing a full order, you can ask for a sample through our complimentary samples service.
Sign off on the proof after our team produces the artwork, follows any existing spec and verifies pricing in writing.
Production and delivery normally take two to three weeks, while most UK and Wakefield addresses receive deliveries within one to two working days after dispatch.
As required, place a repeat order through the same named contact using the same specification held on file.
