From a one-off sample to a full range of packaging products for an ongoing account, one factory and one committed team bring everything together.
We retain your artwork in our records, reproduce your colours on your tenth reorder just as on the first, and tell you honestly when a deadline is tight.
A single representative oversees your enquiry, production and delivery, from the initial sample to a reorder two years later. Because they remain involved, the specification stays consistent.

Which shifts when packing turns into an continuous provider partnership?
An first order usually focuses on the box in question: whether it fits as intended, prints effectively and arrives as scheduled.
A relationship with a supplier builds trust by order six, when an identical product requires the same colour and fit, without needing the specification again.
We manage board stock and ink mixing in our own factory, keeping colour and wall thickness the same from your first order through every reorder.
The team member quoting your job runs it on the press too!
When a reorder requires clarification, they are the person you contact directly, prepared with a straightforward answer.
The Reason York businesses select Our packaging solutions
Absolutely no minimum requirement on every article
We do not require minimum quantities per order on anything we produce, meaning a single sample and a five hundred unit reorder go through precisely the same process.
We impose no minimum volume requirement, and a small order will not attract an additional charge.
This shows we develop with your York business.
When you are ready to grow your business or extend your product range, our support will be there for you at every stage of the journey.
A dedicated dedicated contact, from request to completion
A single dedicated contact stays with your account from the initial enquiry to delivery, so your order details is already known when you are ready to reorder.
You speak to one regular team, so you never have to repeat the job to a new person whenever you call.
Numerous eras of onsite manufacturing
Our holding company, KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, has managed presses in the UK since 1997.
That background shows the board and ink suppliers fulfilling your order are trusted relationships developed over decades, rather than sourced afresh for each job.
As we prepare ink and hold board stock in house, colour matching does not rely on a third party printer understanding your brief.
The proof you approve is precisely what leaves the factory.
Supply tailored for your York firm
No matter where your business is located in the country, we send out everything from one sample to a complete pallet!
Every delivery is collected from the same Irvine factory according to a single consistent schedule, whatever the size of the order or delivery destination in York.
Whether you want a one box submitted for approval or multiple pallets scheduled for a launch date, a single logistics process handles both, ensuring delivery continues in the same way as the order increases.
Specially Designed Creations Developed Centred on Your Offering
Some products cannot be accommodated inside a standard box.
When yours has an uncommon shape or challenging dimensions, we engineer the structure to work around it. Components that require separation during transit are treated with the same care, being built into the structure instead of being added later.
Our team of designers reviews your actual product rather than depending entirely on a specification sheet. An initial sample confirms fit and function before full production begins.
If the die cut needs adjusting, we update it and provide a second sample instead of producing a batch that is unsuccessful.
Packaging goods by Tailored Pack Studio
All packaging in our collection is manufactured at our own facility, ensuring the finish confirmed on your sample is identical to that supplied in an order of five hundred.
From custom-made packaging for a single product line to the accessories that complete each order, everything is made on a single production line.
Packages and boxes
Reverse tuck end cartons and crash lock boxes serve countless retail and product packaging needs, with branding displayed 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 does much of the selling before it is opened at all.
The quality of the board material and accuracy of the die cutting are just as important as the print itself.
Recycled cardboard mail parcels and shipping packaging
Postal mailer boxes are made to suit your product’s dimensions, reducing void fill and helping to prevent the damage a poorly fitted box can cause during transit.
For heavier products, we create corrugated cardboard boxes and shipping cartons in full colour, while printed inserts protect items placed inside.
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 change each month.
Packaging answers for your industry
Our top-grade packaging is ideally suited to a wide range of products across numerous industries.
Meal wrapping supplies
We maintain BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, often serving as the first assurance our food packaging customers seek, from independent bakeries to wholesale suppliers expanding into retail.
Food and drink packaging is subject to our most rigorous requirements, because product-contact safety takes priority over the box’s appearance.
Premium market
For jewellery and cosmetics, a shaped insert or foam recess prevents movement during transit, while foil stamping or soft touch lamination echoes the product within.
We develop packaging designs that enhance your products, providing your brand a decidedly luxurious feel.
Mail box for internet firms
A mailer arriving crushed often prompts 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.
Furthermore, custom-made packaging makes the opening of your order memorable.
Converting an opening into loyal customers and, at times, complimentary online advertising.
Ensuring every reorder consistent
When a reorder arrives, we handle it as a first order, maintaining the same named contact, using the identical proofing process, and sourcing board and ink from the same suppliers as before.
As larger quantities are ordered, the price per unit falls, with savings built into the pricing, leaving no discount code to remember.
That same pricing structure covers twenty boxes, a few thousand replenished within a quarter, and a pallet arranged for bulk delivery.
A matched reorder obtained from a different supplier goes through identical proofing and quality checks as a new design.
Nothing is accepted just because it is similar to something you already possessed.
Eco-friendly acquisition from our leading packaging site
Each box we create is fully recyclable, which helps reduce plastic and landfill waste.
We will not add laminate solely for a shiny finish if it makes a box more difficult to recycle, and we are moving away from 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 talk it through with you in person or over the telephone.
