Regardless of your packaging needs, from one sample to a full range of products for an ongoing account, are handled by one factory and one dedicated team.
We keep your artwork on file, make sure colour matching remains consistent between the first and tenth orders, and advise you candidly when a deadline is especially tight.
One designated contact handles your enquiry, production and delivery, from your initial sample through to a reorder two years later. Your spec remains unchanged because the same person oversees everything.

What alters when wrapping turns into an sustained vendor partnership?
A first order mainly concerns the box itself: whether its dimensions are suitable, whether it prints effectively, and whether it is delivered punctually.
A supplier relationship is confirmed on order six, when the same product calls for the same colour and fit, without requiring you to restate the specification once more from the beginning.
We handle board stock and ink mixing in our very own factory, helping to ensure colour and wall thickness remain consistent from your first order through each reorder.
The individual who prepares your quotation likewise manages its production on the press.
Whenever a reorder calls for clarity, they are the person you contact directly, ready with a genuine answer.
Why Wokingham-led businesses choose our packaging services
No minimum order on anything.
We place no minimum order requirement on anything we produce, meaning the same process applies to one sample and a five hundred unit reorder.
We do not require a minimum quantity before accepting your job, nor do we add an extra charge simply because your order is limited.
This means we grow alongside your Wokingham business.
When the time comes to grow your business or product line, we will help you throughout the process.
Sole dedicated contact, from question to dispatch
One assigned contact handles your account from enquiry to delivery and is familiar with your requirements when you are ready to reorder.
You deal with one consistent team, so you never have to repeat the job to a new member of the team whenever you call.
Countless eras of on-site manufacturing
Our wider company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has operated printing presses in the UK since 1997.
That background means the board and ink suppliers supporting your order are established contacts built over decades, not new sources found for each incoming job.
As we blend ink and maintain our own board stock, colour matching is not reliant on a third party printer understanding your brief.
The design proof you approve is exactly what leaves the production facility.
Delivery bespoke to your Wokingham enterprise
No matter where your business calls home across the country, we supply from one sample to a full pallet.
In Wokingham, our delivery service adheres to the same schedule from the same Irvine factory, whatever the order size or destination.
Whether you need a single box delivered for approval or multiple pallets scheduled for a launch date, one consistent logistics process coordinates both, ensuring delivery stays consistent as your order grows.
Made-to-order styles crafted for your item.
Certain products simply do not sit into a standard box.
If yours has an unusual shape or difficult dimensions, we create the structure to fit it perfectly. Components that require separation during transit receive the same careful treatment, integrated into the structure from the beginning rather than added later.
Your actual product is where our design process starts, rather than a specification sheet alone. Before full production begins, a first sample checks its fit and function.
If the die cut needs modification, we modify it and issue a further sample rather than producing an unsuitable batch.
Packaging items by Tailor-made Pack Studio
All packaging in our collection is made at our own site, meaning that the finish agreed from a sample is identically the finish delivered for an order of five hundred.
From tailored packaging for a single product line to the accessories that finish each order, everything is made on a single production line.
Packages and containers
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes suit a wide range of retail and product packaging needs, with branding featured 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 before it has even been opened.
The standard of the board material and the accuracy of the die cut are equally important as the print itself.
Cardboard envelopes and shipping packaging
Postal mailer boxes are created to fit your item, rather than a generic size, cutting down on wasted space and damage resulting in transit by a ill-fitting box.
For larger or bulkier products, we manufacture corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, while printed inserts protect the contents within.
A gusseted box opens out to accommodate multiple items in one order, making it well suited for subscription boxes or bundle deals whose contents change monthly.
Containers designed to your business area
Our top-tier packaging is suitable for a wide range of products across various industries.
Cuisine packaging fundamentals
We maintain BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, which is often the first assurance our food packaging customers require, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers moving into retail.
Of all the categories we supply, food and drink packaging demands the highest level of care, because safety where packaging meets the product must always come before the box’s appearance.
Premium market
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 create packaging that suits your items and provides your brand a luxurious feel.
Letter box and e-commerce companies
A squashed mailer can lead to a request for a return or refund, so e commerce businesses need a box strong enough to travel through the courier network undamaged.
What’s moreover, bespoke packaging transforms opening your order into a memorable unboxing experience!
Transforming an opportunity into customer loyalty and, sometimes, free online advertising!
Keeping every reorganisation 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 previously.
As your order increases in size, the per-unit price decreases, with the saving included in the pricing rather than depending on a discount code.
This pricing structure is applicable whether you need twenty boxes, several thousand restocked within a quarter, or a pallet prepared for bulk delivery.
A matched reorder from another supplier undergoes the same proofing procedure and rigorous quality checks as an completely new design.
No item passes an inspection just because it appears similar to something you possess already.
Sustainable procurement from our leading packaging facility
Every box we make is 100% recyclable, helping to reduce plastic and landfill waste.
We will avoid adding laminate purely for a glossy finish if doing so makes a box harder to recycle, and we are moving away from single use plastic and EPS foam across 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.
