Three brands we already fulfil for.

ICP B fulfilment fear #1 is "can you actually handle my order volume without dropping the ball?" These three answer it before anything else.

Shopify · homeware

Pebbl · monthly retainer fulfilment

Founder was hand-packing orders from their kitchen. We took over print + pack + dispatch. They now touch zero boxes.

You sell it. We ship it. Your customer doesn't know we exist.

Connect your store, send us your files and packaging, we handle the rest.

Onboarding takes roughly 5 working days from first call to first dispatched order. The only time-sensitive step is you sending us a pallet of your packaging.

  1. 1

    Connect Shopify or Amazon

    App install or API handshake. Orders auto-pull into our queue. Tracking auto-pushes back to your store.

    You: 10 minutes · one-time
  2. 2

    Send us files + packaging

    Your STEP or STL per SKU, plus a pallet of your boxes, inserts, thank-you cards, and shipping labels. One delivery, one-time.

    You: 1 courier drop · one-time
  3. 3

    Approve first-article sample

    We print one unit per SKU and send it to you. You check fit, finish, colour, packaging match. Sign off before we go live.

    You: unbox · approve · reply
  4. 4

    Orders ship direct

    From the moment we go live, every Shopify or Amazon order triggers print + pack + Royal Mail dispatch inside the 48-hour SLA. Tracking auto-syncs.

    You: watch orders happen
Zero packaging MOQ · total brand control

Total brand control. Zero packaging MOQ. Zero wasted boxes.

Every other POD service forces you onto a generic kraft box or locks you into 100-unit packaging minimums. Neither of those work for a DTC brand that's moving 50 to 500 units a month through 3 to 5 SKUs. So we inverted the model. You design the box, the insert, the card, the label. You send them to us once, in a pallet. We store, pick, pack, dispatch. Your customer opens a box with your brand on it and no reason to know we exist.

  • You supply: boxes, inserts, thank-you cards, stickers, branded void-fill, shipping labels
  • We supply: printed product, packing labour, Royal Mail dispatch, tracking sync back to your store
  • Zero packaging MOQ · we'll pack the first unit using your packaging (vs industry-standard 100-box minimum at 3D Vikings)
  • Packaging inventory stored in our workshop · you restock on your cashflow, not ours
  • Change the insert, swap the card, update the label · one email, next order it's in

Engineering-grade materials. Not PLA-grade print-on-demand.

Every 2D POD competitor and most 3D POD platforms ship PLA-grade parts. That's fine for hobby merch. It's not fine for product-grade DTC sold at £20-£80 price points. Here's the difference.

What we ship

  • Polymaker PA12-nylon · tough, impact-resistant, engineering workhorse
  • Polymaker PA12-CF · carbon-fibre reinforced for structural parts
  • PETG · heat + chemical resistance for appliance-adjacent products
  • TPU · flexible, gasket-like, grip and cushioning applications
  • ABS / ASA · UV-stable for exterior-use products
  • Spec sheets, TDS on request, real engineering credentials

What a 2D POD shop ships (Printify, Printful, most 3D POD)

  • PLA · brittle, melts in a warm car, not for anything structural
  • Generic resin · smells, UV-degrades, brittle under load
  • "Standard 3D printed filament" · unnamed material, unnamed grade
  • No TDS, no engineering spec, no material traceability
  • Catalogue-only · cannot ship custom engineering-grade materials
We use Polymaker as primary filament supplier across the engineering-grade range. We standardise on Polymaker for material consistency · we can cite TDSs on any product you ship.
Launch day · the promise nobody else makes

Launching on Product Hunt, TikTok, Kickstarter, or a press feature? Tell us the date. We reserve capacity.

Launch-day spikes are the thing DTC founders lose sleep over. Slant 3D waves 800 printers at you. Gelato waves 140 hubs. Neither commits to your specific launch. We do.

  • Tell us the launch date + expected order range, two weeks ahead
  • We hold 40% farm headroom on your SKUs for 14 days either side of launch
  • Reserved capacity is written into your brief, not a handshake
  • If your launch over-indexes past the reservation, we prioritise your orders over non-reserved production
  • No extra fee · it's baked into the retainer relationship

For the founder who's done with boxes in the spare room.

You launched. Product-market fit is real. You're doing 50 to 500 units a month, maybe 3 to 5 SKUs. You're selling on Shopify, maybe also Amazon. What you're NOT doing is the thing that got you here: designing, marketing, talking to customers. Instead you're taping kraft boxes at 10pm, dreading the launch that might 10x overnight, and arguing with Royal Mail about lost parcels.

What you get working with us:

  • Your Shopify + Amazon orders auto-route to our workshop inside 2 working hours
  • Every order dispatched inside 48 hours, tracked, synced back to your store
  • Your packaging, our labour · no brand drift, no "POD look"
  • Engineering-grade materials, not PLA-grade POD
  • Launch capacity reserved on request · tell us two weeks out
  • Named account contact · our team direct, no account managers

Pebbl handed off fulfilment in a week. They haven't packed a box since.

Founder-led Shopify brand. Printing + packing had become the constraint on marketing spend · every extra order meant an extra hour at the bench. We onboarded in 5 working days, started dispatching inside the 48-hour SLA from day one, and they've now got a full workshop between them and the Royal Mail.

We don't · honest limits

  • Amazon FBA (Fulfilment By Amazon) · we ship direct, not into their warehouses
  • Branded packaging design or procurement · you source, we pack
  • Returns processing beyond reprint-on-breakage · not a full reverse logistics service
  • Oversize parcels requiring pallet freight · we ship what fits a Royal Mail large-letter up to a medium parcel
  • Food-contact, safety-critical, or FDA/CE-traceable products · refer out honestly
  • WooCommerce, Etsy, BigCommerce, Wix, Squarespace · Shopify and Amazon only for now
  • Sub-50/month volumes · use our small-batch production service instead
If any of these apply to your business, we'll tell you within 2 working days of your first call and point you somewhere better.

Click any question to expand the answer.

Ordered by enquiry-blocking fear frequency. Packaging-runout leads because it's the #1 complaint in every POD review corpus studied.

What if my packaging runs out during a launch?

We track your packaging inventory and ping you when it's at 30% of current monthly volume. You top up on your own timeline, we never pause dispatch without warning. The pallet lives on our shelves, not in a queue waiting to be processed.

How do you handle SKU variant explosion?

Each SKU gets its own print file, packaging profile, and material spec on file. Adding a new variant takes one email and one first-article sample. Adding ten variants at once takes a brief, but it's the same process scaled.

What if you miss the 48-hour SLA?

We own it. Monthly retainer clients get an SLA credit on late dispatches, tracked in our system and reported monthly. The credit is real, not notional. And if we're failing the SLA repeatedly, we'd rather help you leave than have you stuck with a supplier that isn't working.

What happens if a print fails or arrives broken?

We reprint and redispatch at our cost, not yours. Your customer gets the working part, we wear the material and labour. Full reverse-logistics returns (refund processing, restocking, etc.) are out of scope, that stays with you or your 3PL.

Can you ship internationally?

UK is primary. We ship to EU via DPD or DHL, US and global via Royal Mail International Tracked. Customs paperwork is per your declared retail value and category, we produce it, you own the liability. Oversize freight is out of scope.

Will my brand feel inconsistent across orders?

No. Your packaging is YOUR packaging, not a POD generic. Same box, same insert, same label format, every time. That's the whole point of the zero-MOQ customer-supplies model, consistency is baked in by design, not promised by SLA.

What if I outgrow you?

We'll tell you before you do. If you're heading past our capacity, we'll flag it at the reservation planning call and introduce you to an enterprise 3PL before it becomes a problem. We'd rather hand you off well than strand you.

How does offboarding work if we change direction?

Monthly retainer with a 30-day notice window. We return your packaging inventory tracked, your SKU files stay yours throughout, no clawback and no exit fees. Clean switch-outs are part of the agreement, not a surprise.

01

48-hour dispatch SLA

Shopify order to Royal Mail inside 2 working days. SLA-credit clause on monthly retainer if we miss.

02

Launch capacity reserved

Tell us the date, we lock 14-day headroom. Written into the brief, not a handshake.

03

Reprint on breakage

Broken in transit or printed wrong? We reprint at our cost. Your customer gets the working part first.

04

30-day exit

Doesn't work? 30-day notice, your packaging returned tracked, your files stay yours. No clawback.

Ready to stop packing boxes? Start fulfilling with us, or send us your packaging and we'll print a free test sample in your brand first.

You'll get our team directly. No account managers, no form-auto-replies. Send us one SKU file and a single unit of your packaging (box, insert, label). We print it, pack it, ship it to you. You hold the finished product before you commit to a retainer.

One SKU is fine. There is no minimum catalogue and no MOQ, so you can start with a single hero product and add more as you grow. Because we print to order, there is no upfront stock to commit to.
You connect your Shopify or Amazon store and orders flow to us automatically. When we dispatch, within the 48-hour SLA to Royal Mail, the tracking number is written back to the order so your customer gets your store's normal shipping notification. We confirm the exact sync setup with you during onboarding.
That is a common move. We fulfil Amazon orders as Merchant-Fulfilled (MFN): you point your listings at us, send your files and packaging, and we dispatch each order direct within the 48-hour SLA. We plan the switch with you so there is no gap in fulfilment.
Yes. Tell us your peak dates and we reserve capacity in advance, the same launch-spike headroom we hold for Product Hunt and Kickstarter drops (around 14 days' notice). Black Friday and Christmas volumes are planned in, not improvised.
Returns stay under your brand and your store's returns policy. We cover the fulfilment side: anything that arrives damaged or breaks on first intended use we reprint and re-ship free, our reprint-on-breakage promise. The handling route for change-of-mind returns is agreed with you at onboarding.
Because we print to order there is no warehouse stock to track, each order is made and dispatched within the 48-hour SLA and the tracking number is written back to your store on dispatch. For higher volumes we can set up a shared status view, just ask at onboarding.
We ship from the UK via Royal Mail, including tracked international services, with customs documentation completed at dispatch. You control which countries you sell to from your store settings, and for high international volume we will talk through the best carrier mix with you.
Tell us the launch date and we reserve spike capacity in advance (around 14 days' notice) so a TikTok or Product Hunt surge ships on time instead of stalling. We have already absorbed a Product Hunt launch for one brand, and because we print to order there is no stock-out, we just scale the print queue.
