Motivations for choose personalised packaging
A typical box leaves space around the product, enabling it to rattle in transit until someone packs the spaces with foam or paper to keep it in place.
Conventional packaging with a label affixed to its side may be convenient, but it is designed for no specific audience.
Custom Pack Studio creates custom-made packaging around your product, making sure the box, print and finish support your brand rather than covering it.
We produce custom-made boxes, mailer boxes, gift packaging and printed accessories for businesses throughout Bagillt and the surrounding valleys, with orders spanning a single sample to a complete pallet delivered directly to a warehouse door.
Nothing we produce needs a minimum order, allowing you to set stock and storage costs aside until a product has shown that it sells.
Share your packaging requirements, and we will customise the recommendation to suit the product itself.
What tailor-made packaging means
Custom packaging begins with your product, with the box dimensions and print specification designed to suit exactly what you are packing.
You select the dimensions, allowing a custom-sized box to keep the product firmly without movement caused by excess space in a standard size.
Each element, ranging from the structure and board weight to the print and finish, is tailored to the contents and their journey.
Adding a logo to a stock box produces personalised packaging, offering a more modest project than fully customisable design.
Tailored packaging places every panel, fold and finish in your hands, even for a single piece, enabling you to create a customised solution that fits precisely, with no compromise.
Packing styles we offer for Bagillt enterprises
We produce a complete range of packaging boxes in bespoke sizes, printed in full colour using your artwork.
Choosing the most suitable box style and packaging format is based on your products and their handling requirements, which our packaging experts will explain clearly.
Store cartons and branded packaging
Reverse tuck end cartons are a retail packaging staple, designed for lighter products such as cosmetics and supplements, with flaps which tuck securely inside at both the top and bottom.
Crash lock boxes are sturdier cardboard lock boxes with a base that snaps flat when opened, stopping heavier products from forcing the bottom out.
Postal and digital commerce boxes
A custom mailer box protects your product across the courier network while turning delivery part of the brand experience and improving visibility, with printing inside and outside instead of only on the outer face.
These custom printed boxes are also available with gussets, providing additional depth so bulkier items can sit securely without moving.
Keepsake boxes, rigid boxes and roofed boxes
Rigid boxes, gift boxes with magnetic closures and other branded boxes provide presents with refined presentation customers anticipate, without requiring them to wrap anything themselves.
Gable boxes featuring collapsible carry handles are well suited to food gifts and hampers.
For premium ranges, we may specify SBS board, meaning, solid bleached sulphate, a bright, food safe paperboard, rather than conventional carton stock. Foil and soft touch lamination finishes can enhance further the result.
Build assistance for your Bagillt brand.
Every order includes packaging design support, irrespective of how far your artwork has advanced.
Have a logo and brand guidelines? Our design experts create print ready files, verifying that colours stay accurate on board because packaging demands greater resolution than a website image.
You do not need previous design experience to create packaging that represents your brand. Our team can start with a logo alone, define the structure and create professionally designed artwork prepared for print working with you, explaining each technical decision as it arises.
Our online tool enables you to personalise a box and review its appearance on screen before printing, while Pantone colour matching ensures that repeat orders stay consistent.
If you need packaging printed in both English and Welsh, our team considers this to be a standard artwork requirement and handles it just as we would any other language or colour alteration.
Specialised packaging for Bagillt’s industries
Food and drink
Welsh Lamb and Welsh Beef both hold Protected Geographical Indication status, and all food packaging which comes into contact with meat or dairy must comply with food contact standards, irrespective of which side of the border it is made on.
We have BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, meaning our food packaging is manufactured in controlled, traceable conditions that retailers assess before listing a product.
Beverages and spirit-making sites
Over the past twenty years, Wales has established a distinctive drinks industry, encompassing distilleries in the Brecon Beacons and more recent gin and whisky producers across the north.
Bottle presentation boxes must withstand transit while maintaining shelf appeal, with finishes including foil stamping and embossing delivering much of the impact for a limited release or seasonal gift set.
Beauty products and beauty products for Bagillt
Cosmetic and skincare brands need cartons which protect fragile glass and compacts whilst presenting well on the shelf.
We produce cosmetics packaging with soft touch lamination, foil and embossing, while rigid boxes suit premium ranges that need to support a higher price point.
Internet commerce and recurring brands
Retail ready and display packaging has its role when products are placed on shop shelves or marketplace fulfilment centres, yet subscription brands encounter an entirely different challenge.
Every month, the same customer opens a nearly identical box, making a uniform finish every bit as important as the original design.
Effective online packaging, made exactly to fit your product packaging, keeps items secure during transit and lowers claims for damage and returns.
A fitted insert or printed tissue stops the product shifting during transit, while keeping the print in view once the box is opened.
For a subscription brand that reorders each month, maintaining uniform box dimensions maintains predictable pallet capacity and warehouse racking, becoming increasingly important as volumes exceed several hundred units.
Shipping to Bagillt from our Scottish workspace
Everything is made at our Irvine facility, with UK delivery to businesses in Bagillt provided as standard.
The majority of orders arrive at a Bagillt address within two to three weeks following proof approval, following the same timetable as our packaging throughout the UK.
Custom Pack Studio belongs to KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, an established packaging manufacturer that has been producing print and packaging since 1997, with its experienced team producing boxes on its own presses.
You approve a proof and, where required by the format, a physical sample before full production begins, while reorders keep the original artwork, ensuring larger quantities require no fresh preparation.
Using a sole box company for your full product range simplifies packaging.
You receive one invoice and deal with one contact, avoiding multiple suppliers quoting different prices for different weeks.
Sustainable packaging as routine
Every box we produce is fully recyclable, thanks to the board it is made from.
Our board and paper are procured from FSC and PEFC certified suppliers, with each sheet traceable through an audited chain to responsibly managed forests.
We are cutting back on single use plastic and EPS foam void fill throughout our processes, as neither material is readily recyclable and both cause disposal difficulties after a parcel has been opened.
When the design allows, biodegradable or paper-based protection takes their place instead.
Without a minimum purchase for Bagillt businesses
Across the industry, custom packaging often requires minimum orders of 500 or 1,000 units, leaving you to finance stock and storage before discovering whether your product will sell.
There is no minimum order requirement.
Small businesses can begin with a single sample, place a small trial run, or proceed with full production once demand is proven, while unit pricing scales across every quantity in between.
Prior to production begins, you will always receive a written quotation. The high quality materials and packaging products supplied for a run of fifty are exactly the same as those provided for a run of ten thousand.
Before purchasing in volume, ask for a printed sample and examine its print, colour and how it fits in your hand.
