What custom packaging means
We create our bespoke packaging especially for your product, letting you pick the dimensions, build, design and coating.
Attaching a logo to a preassembled box remains a separate and considerably more restricted process.
Our definition of a completely bespoke box involves that we precisely tailor the dimensions to suit your specific product, choose the best board weight based on expected handling, and add print to whichever panels you require.
The design of the packaging starts in parallel with the initial stage of the product design procedure.
We absolutely enjoy partnering with food producers, cosmetics brands, online sellers and craft spirits makers all over the country!
The custom packaging we make
We manufacture a wide-ranging range of box styles, each tailored to custom dimensions and fully printed with your distinctive branding artwork.
Determining the most suitable template for your merchandise rests solely upon its inherent nature, the sales channels, and the logistics of final delivery, all of which our specialists will help you with selecting.
Folding cartons
To pack retail products, businesses regularly use the standard formats of reverse tuck-end boxes and crash-lock bottom boxes.
Are you prepared to discover the ideal packaging champion? A reverse tuck-end carton features clever flaps that fold inwards at both ends, making it the perfect match for storing featherweight essentials such as your favourite cosmetics and daily supplements!
First, simply set up the crash-lock box so the robust base slots into place. This practical design easily supports heavier products, whilst both formats arrive flat and put together in moments.
Postal and mailer boxes
For e-commerce merchants, a custom-made mailing carton protects your merchandise whilst undergoing transit and lifts the unboxing experience into a important element of your marketing.
Who needs dull brown parcels? Double-sided printed mailer boxes offer e-commerce shoppers an impressive unboxing moment, plus they are robust enough to easily survive the post!
We additionally produce gusseted e-commerce boxes, which neatly accommodate items needing a greater or more flexible fit.
Sleeves and wallets
Placing a product or internal tray within a slide-on sleeve offers an elegant branding opportunity that keeps the original packaging, offering an highly useful and cost-effective solution for short-term seasonal lines and special limited-edition releases.
Made to wrap around your merchandise like a streamlined folder, this wallet-style packaging delivers an refined and sleek display that is perfectly suited for showcasing cards, prints and narrow retail items.
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
When buying items destined as gifts, employing a custom presentation box elevates the general look to match consumer expectations whilst fully doing away with the need for manual wrapping.
Durable rigid packaging, boxes with magnetic closure and customised inserts perfectly suit Anniesland. Applying high-end finishes such as foil blocking, embossing or tactile soft-touch lamination will lift this range to warrant an increased retail price.
Packaging design support if you do not have a designer
Are you bring your ideas into reality? We offer full design assistance as part of our package, whatever stage your artwork is at!
When you provide us with your existing brand guidelines and print-ready artwork, we will diligently adhere to these specifications to create your final files for the manufacturing stage.
To get ready your packaging materials for press, we reconstruct any logo provided as a JPEG or alternative image format because actual manufacturing requires a much higher resolution than digital platforms need.
Starting from just a rough concept, we create your box structure and print-ready artwork. Our specialists create bespoke packaging when standard templates do not suit. To support you, we explain every technical detail, including board weight and print resolution.
Alternatively, you may use our design software to tailor a packaging solution and integrate your bespoke corporate identity prior to making contact, or instead arrange a creative appointment should you prefer to talk through your requirements beforehand.
