From a single sample to a full range of packaging products for an ongoing account, one factory and one committed team bring everything together.
We keep your artwork securely in our records, reproduce your colours just as accurately on the tenth reorder as on the first, and let you know immediately if a deadline appears challenging.
A single named contact handles your enquiry, production and delivery, from the first sample to a reorder after two years. The specification stays consistent because the same person continues to be responsible.
For a packaging supplier designed to grow with your business, get in touch with the friendly team at Custom Pack Studio today.
How do shifts occur when packing becomes a sustained provider partnership involving Waterlooville?
An early order usually focuses on the box itself: whether it fits as intended, prints clearly and is delivered on time.
A reliable supplier relationship proves itself on order six, when the same product requires the same colour and fit, without you having to explain the specification all over again.
We oversee board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, helping to ensure colour and wall thickness remain consistent from your first order through all later reorders.
The team member quoting your job operates it on the press as well!
If a reorder needs clarification, they are the person to speak to directly for a genuine answer.
Why Waterlooville-owned businesses opt for our packaging services
There is no minimum spend on any item.
We do not impose a minimum order for any products we make, so a single sample and a reorder of five hundred units go through the same process.
We do not require a minimum volume before accepting your job, nor do we apply an additional charge simply because your order is small.
This means our growth remains aligned with your Waterlooville business.
Whenever you are ready to develop your business or product line, we will be by your side throughout the entire course of your journey!
One identified representative from first enquiry to completion
Your dedicated contact stays with your account from initial enquiry through to delivery, so they are familiar with your spec when you are looking to reorder.
You will not be passed between departments or made to explain the job again to someone new when you ring.
Generations of domestic manufacturing
KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, our main company, has run printing presses in the UK since 1997.
That history shows the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are long-standing contacts built over decades, rather than sourced afresh for each job.
As we mix ink and keep our own board stock, colour matching is not reliant on a third party printer understanding your brief.
The sample you sign off on is precisely what leaves the factory.
Shipping shaped in line with your Waterlooville operation
Wherever your business is located in the country, we deliver everything from one sample to a complete pallet!
Each consignment is collected from the same Irvine factory according to the same regular schedule, whatever the order size or destination in Waterlooville.
Whether you are seeking a single box couriered for sign-off or multiple pallets scheduled for a launch date, one consistent logistics process coordinates both, ensuring delivery remains unchanged as your order expands.
Personalised creations created around your offering.
Some products do not fit inside a standard box.
If your item has an irregular shape or awkward dimension, we design the structure to fit it exactly. Components requiring separation during transit are integrated into the structure, rather than fitted later.
Our design professionals evaluate your physical product rather than depending entirely on a specification sheet. An first sample verifies fit and performance before any item proceeds to full production.
If the die cut requires adjustment, we adjust it and dispatch another sample rather than making a batch that is not suitable.
Packaging products by Bespoke Pack Studio
All packaging in our collection is made in our own factory, so that the finish approved from a sample is precisely the finish supplied for an order of five hundred.
Whether it’s custom packaging for a single product line or the accessories that finish an order, it is all produced on one production line.
Packages and packages
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes suit a broad range of retail and product packaging, with printing on every panel to help keep your branding in view regardless of how the container is placed on a shelf.
For jewellery and presents, a rigid box featuring magnetic closure or a foil stamped lid starts presenting the product before it is even opened.
High quality board material and an precise die cut are just as important here as the print itself.
Corrugated mailers and postal packaging
Postal mailer boxes are designed to suit your product’s measurements, minimising surplus void fill and reducing the damage that an ill-fitting box may cause during transit.
When heavier items begin their journey, full colour corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons keep them protected, while printed inserts softly cushion everything inside.
A gusseted box expands to accommodate multiple items in one order, making it suitable for a subscription box or bundle whose contents vary each month.
Packing answers for the industry
Our top-grade packaging is well suited to diverse products across many industries.
Grocery packing items
We maintain BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, and it is often the initial point our food packaging customers want to know 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 appearance.
High-end area
For jewellery and cosmetics, a tailored insert or foam cavity keeps products safe in transit, while foil stamping or soft touch lamination echoes the contents.
We help you create packaging that enhances your items and gives your brand a luxurious feel.
Postal cartons for digital companies
A mailer arriving crushed frequently leads to a request for a return or refund, so e-commerce brands require a box built to endure the courier network and reach its destination intact.
Moreover, bespoke packaging turns unboxing into a memorable experience.
Transforming an opportunity into customer loyalty and, sometimes, free online advertising!
Sustaining all reshuffling consistently
We process every reorder as we would a first order, retaining the same named contact and proofing process, while sourcing the board and ink from the same suppliers as before.
The price per unit decreases as the size of the order grows, with those savings already included in the pricing rather than relying on a discount code you have to remember to enter.
This pricing approach is applicable whether you require twenty boxes, several thousand replenished within a quarter, or a pallet prepared for bulk delivery.
A matched reorder procured from another supplier receives the same proofing and quality checks as a new design.
Nothing is accepted simply because it resembles something you already possessed.
Green procurement from our premier packaging centre
Every box we produce is entirely recyclable, helping to cut down on both plastic rubbish and landfill waste.
We will avoid adding laminate only to create a glossy finish if doing so makes a box more difficult to recycle, and we are phasing out single use plastic and EPS foam throughout the range.
Should a sustainability statement require scrutiny during a procurement audit, we would be pleased to discuss it with you either face to face or by telephone.
How changing or beginning operates
get in touch with us with an approximate description of what you need to package, your whereabouts in Waterlooville, the required quantity, and whether we need to match an existing supplier.
If you are trying new products or would like to evaluate their quality before placing a full order, request a sample through our free samples service.
Provide approval for the proof after our team has prepared the artwork, matched it to any current specification and given written price confirmation.
Production and delivery generally require two to three weeks, while most UK and Waterlooville addresses get their orders within one to two working days after dispatch.
Place another order whenever needed through the same named contact, with the same specification already on file.
