Birmingham Direct Mail Experts

Central Mailing Services is a Birmingham-based leader in print and mail fulfilment, delivering complete solutions for Direct Mail, and more. With over 30 years of experience, CMS produces everything onsite, from designing and printing through to enclosing and delivery.

The Challenge

CMS needed additional space that not only aligned with their existing facilities but also addressed the unique requirements of their business:

Secure Holding Area: With paper being their core material, it was critical that no products were exposed to rain.
Operational Efficiency: They required a versatile layout to accommodate storage, warehousing, and a covered drive.
Consistency and Integration: Any new structure had to complement their existing building.

Their Operations Manager engaged in a competitive tender process and, after having met Smart-Space twice, was struck by our honesty, confidence, and the quality of our previous work showcased online.

The Smart-Space Solution

Smart-Space worked closely with CMS to deliver a bespoke building with three clear zones:

Storage area for materials and finished items.
Warehouse space to handle large-scale volumes.
Covered drive-through section that allows vehicles to load and unload while ensuring stock remains dry.

The project wasn’t without its challenges and the Smart-Space team, led by Kaspars Resna (Site Manager), responded quickly, communicated clearly, and made adjustments that exceeded expectations.
