Regardless of your packaging requirements, from an individual sample to a complete range of products for a ongoing account, are overseen by one factory and one dedicated team.
We retain your artwork on file, make sure colour matching remains consistent from the first order to the tenth, and give you honest advice when a deadline is particularly demanding.
A named representative oversees your request, production and dispatch, from the first sample to a reorder two years later. Because they remain involved throughout, the specification stays the same.

Which differences arise when wrapping becomes a ongoing vendor partnership involving Westhoughton?
A initial order is really about the box itself: will it fit properly, print well and arrive on time?
A trading relationship shows its value on order six, when the same product requires the same colour and fit, with no need to repeat the specification all over again.
We oversee board stock and ink mixing at our own factory, ensuring colour and wall thickness stay consistent from your first order through every subsequent reorder.
The person who puts together your quotation also manages its production on the press.
Whenever a reorder requires clarification, they are the person you contact directly, ready with a honest answer.
How come Westhoughton businesses prefer our company’s packaging offerings
Absolutely no minimum purchase on any item.
We do not impose a minimum order for any products we make, so one sample and a five hundred unit reorder are handled through the same process.
Whether the order is small or substantial, we are prepared to handle it, with no minimum volume required and no added cost simply because it is small.
In other words, we grow with your Westhoughton business.
When the time comes to grow your business or product line, we will assist you throughout the process.
Sole committed point of contact, from question to completion
One consistent contact remains with your account from initial enquiry to delivery, so your specification is already known when you are ready to reorder.
You are never passed between departments or asked to describe the job again to a another member of the team whenever you call.
Numerous years of in-house manufacturing
KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, our parent company, has been operating presses in the UK since 1997.
That heritage means the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are reliable partners built over decades, rather than new sources found for every incoming job.
As we mix ink and maintain our own board stock, colour matching is not reliant on a third party printer interpreting your brief.
The factory makes precisely what is shown on the approved proof.
Delivery personalised to your Westhoughton business
No matter where your business calls its base across the country, we deliver from one sample to a full pallet.
Our delivery service collects from the same facility in Irvine following a consistent schedule, irrespective of the size of the order or destination within Westhoughton.
Whether a single box must be sent by courier for approval or several pallets need arranging around a launch date, one consistent logistics process manages everything, ensuring delivery remains unchanged as the order expands.
Tailored designs developed to suit your goods
A few products do not fit within a standard box.
Where your item has an irregular shape or awkward dimension, we engineer the structure to fit it accurately. Components requiring separation during transit are incorporated into the structure, rather than added afterwards.
Your actual product is where our design process starts, instead of a specification sheet alone. Before full production begins, a first sample checks its fit and function.
Should the die cut need adjustment, we revise it and supply a second sample rather than creating an inappropriate batch.
Packaging goods from Custom Pack Workshop
All packaging in our range is manufactured at our own factory, so that the finish approved on a sample is the same as the finish supplied in an order of five hundred.
Whether it’s custom packaging for a sole product line or the accessories that complete an order, it is all produced on one production line.
Containers and carton boxes
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes suit countless retail and product packaging needs, with branding printed on every panel so it stays visible wherever the container is placed on the shelf.
For jewellery and gifting, a rigid box with a magnetic closure or foil stamped lid starts selling the product prior to being opened.
Premium quality board material and an accurate die cut are just as important here as the print itself.
Paperboard mailers and delivery packaging
Postal mailer boxes are made to fit your product’s exact dimensions, cutting down on void fill and preventing the damage that an unsuitable box may cause during transit.
For larger or more substantial items, we manufacture full colour corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons, while printed inserts help keep everything inside safely cushioned.
A gusseted box expands to fit multiple items in one order, making it well suited for a subscription box or bundle deal with contents that change each month.
Packing customised to any sector
Our quality packaging is suitable for a wide range of products across various industries.
Meal packing materials
We hold BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, and it is often the first aspect our food packaging customers want to know about, whether they operate a small bakery or are a wholesale supplier branching into retail.
Among all the categories we supply, food and drink packaging demands the most attention, because safety where packaging meets the product must always come before the box’s appearance.
Premium sector
For jewellery and cosmetics, a shaped insert or foam recess helps prevent movement while in transit, while foil stamping or soft touch lamination echoes the product within.
We design packaging that elevates your items and provides your brand a high-end feel.
Postal packages for internet retailers
When a mailer reaches its destination crushed, it typically indicates a request for a return or refund, leaving online brands seeking packaging sturdy enough to arrive intact from the courier network.
What’s more, bespoke packaging transforms opening your order into a lasting unboxing experience!
Transforming an opening into loyal customers and, at times, complimentary online advertising.
Keeping every reorder uniform
We manage every reorder precisely as we do a first order, using the same designated contact, unchanged proofing procedure, and board and ink from the suppliers used before.
As your order grows, the reduced unit cost is included directly in the quoted price, so there is no discount code to remember.
This pricing model applies in the same way to twenty boxes, several thousand replenished during a quarter, or a pallet arranged for bulk delivery.
A matched reorder from another supplier receives the same proofing procedure and rigorous quality checks as an entirely new design.
No item is approved entirely because it is intended to look like something you already had.
Sustainable procurement from our leading packaging plant
Every box we manufacture is entirely recyclable, helping to limit plastic and landfill waste.
We won’t introduce laminate just for a glossy finish if it makes a box more difficult to recycle, and we are reducing our use of single use plastic and EPS foam throughout the range.
If you need a sustainability claim to withstand procurement audit scrutiny, we would be pleased to discuss it with you in person or by telephone.
