Whatever your packaging requirements, from one sample to a complete range of products for an ongoing account, one factory and one team oversee it all.
We retain your artwork, replicate your colours with the same accuracy on the tenth reorder as on the first, and tell you frankly when a deadline is tight.
A single named contact oversees your enquiry, production and delivery, from the first sample to a reorder two years later. The spec remains unchanged because the same person stays responsible.

Which alterations occur when wrapping becomes an enduring supplier relationship with Wallsend
When that first order arrives, the focus shifts to the box: its fit, its print quality, and whether it reaches you on time.
A supplier relationship proves its worth on order six, when the same product requires the same colour and fit, with no need to explain the specification from scratch.
We handle board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, keeping colour and wall thickness consistent from your first order to every reorder.
The individual putting together your quotation is also the one who operates your job on the press.
When a reorder requires clarification, they are the person you speak to directly, ready with a honest answer.
Why Wallsend firms choose the packaging solutions
No minimum order on any item
We do not impose a minimum order requirement for anything we produce, meaning the same process applies to one sample and a five hundred unit reorder.
Whether the order is small or large, we are prepared to handle it, with no minimum volume required and no additional charge simply because it is small.
This shows we grow alongside your Wallsend business.
When the time comes to expand your business or product line, we will support you every step of the way.
One dedicated contact, right from enquiry to delivery
The same dedicated personal contact manages your account from your initial enquiry through to delivery, already knowing your specification when you are ready to place another order.
You are never transferred between departments or asked to go over the job again to someone new whenever you call.
Numerous eras of in-house manufacturing
Our holding company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has run presses in the UK since 1997.
That history means the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are trusted relationships developed over decades, not new sources identified for each incoming job.
Since we mix our own ink and maintain board stock, colour matching doesn’t rely on a third party printer interpreting your brief.
The design proof you accept is the same as what leaves the production facility.
Distribution bespoke to your Wallsend business
We ship across the country, regardless of where your business is based, from a one sample to a full pallet.
Our delivery service picks up from the same facility in Irvine following a consistent schedule, regardless of order size or destination within Wallsend.
Whether a lone box requires couriering for approval or multiple pallets need to arrive for a launch date, one logistics process handles both, ensuring delivery remains reliable as orders expand.
Bespoke designs made to suit your goods
A few products do not fit inside a standard box.
If your item has an atypical shape or difficult dimension, we engineer the structure to fit it exactly. Components that need separating for transit are built into the structure, rather than added afterwards.
Our design specialists review your physical product rather than relying solely on a specification sheet. An first sample checks fit and performance before any item moves into full production.
Should the die cut require refinement, we amend it and supply a second sample rather than producing an inappropriate batch.
Packaging items by Custom Packaging Studio
Every item of packaging in our range is produced at our own factory, meaning the finish confirmed on your sample is the same as that supplied in an order of five hundred.
All items from bespoke packaging for one product line to the accessories included with an order is made on one production line.
Boxes and cartons
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes meet countless retail and product packaging needs, with every panel printed to keep your branding noticeable wherever the container stands on a shelf.
For jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid begins selling the product before it is even opened.
The quality of the board and the precision of its die cut are equally important here as the printing itself.
Recycled mailers and delivery packaging
Postal mailer boxes are made to match your product’s dimensions, helping to reduce void fill and preventing the damage a badly fitting box can cause during transit.
For bulkier or bigger items, we manufacture full colour corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons, while printed inserts protect and cushion their contents.
A gusseted box increases in capacity to fit multiple items in one order, making it ideal for a subscription box or bundle deal with contents that vary each month.
Packaging services for the business
Our quality packaging is suitable for numerous products across a range of industries.
Meal packing materials
Our BRC Global Packaging certification covers the High Hygiene level. It is generally the initial assurance food packaging customers look for, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers moving into retail.
Of every category we provide, food and drink packaging is governed by the most rigorous requirements, as ensuring safe contact with the product takes priority over the box’s visual appeal.
High-end market
For jewellery and cosmetics, a bespoke insert or foam recess keeps items from moving in transit, while finishes such as foil stamping or soft touch lamination echo the product within.
We work with you to create packaging that complements your products and brings a luxurious feel to your brand.
Mail parcels for online retailers
When a mailer arrives at its destination crushed, it often prompts a return or refund request, making durable packaging necessary for ecommerce brands navigating courier networks.
Furthermore, custom-made packaging turns opening the package into a lasting unboxing experience.
Converting an opportunity into customer loyalty and, at times, complimentary online advertising!
Ensuring every rearrangement standardised
We handle every reorder as we do a first order, using the same named contact, proofing process, and board and ink suppliers as before.
The price per unit decreases as the quantity ordered rises, with those price reductions already incorporated in the pricing rather than relying on a discount code you have to remember to enter.
This pricing model is applied equally to twenty boxes, several thousand restocked during a quarter, or a pallet arranged for bulk delivery.
A matched reorder from another supplier receives the same proofing process and rigorous quality checks as an completely new design.
Nothing gets automatic approval simply because it resembles something you already had!
Environmentally responsible sourcing from our premier packaging plant
Every box we manufacture is fully recyclable, helping to reduce plastic and landfill waste.
We will not add laminate solely for a shiny finish if it makes a box harder to recycle. We are also reducing single use plastic and EPS foam throughout the range.
If a sustainability statement need scrutiny during a procurement audit, we would be happy to discuss it with you either face to face or by telephone.
