What custom packaging means
We create tailored packaging engineered completely around your particular product by providing you full control over the size, style, print and finishing!
Modifying a pre-made carton with a embossed brand mark creates a contrasting and much more limited undertaking.
Our made-to-order packaging ensures you receive exact dimensions suited to your item, packaging strength tailored to your shipping requirements, and custom print printed on your chosen panels.
We create the packaging carefully around the product from the initial stage.
Custom Pack Studio works with manufacturers of food products, cosmetics businesses, online retailers and small distilleries throughout the nation.
The custom packaging we make
We produce an extensive selection of packaging styles, which are all made to suit to your custom dimensions and completely printed with your artwork.
The most suitable packaging design for your item depends on its physical nature, sales method, and delivery journey, and our specialists will guide your selection.
Folding cartons
To package retail products, businesses frequently utilise the standard formats of reverse tuck-end boxes and crash-lock bottom boxes.
The reverse tuck-end carton features top and bottom closure flaps facing in opposite directions, making it well suited for lightweight merchandise such as toiletries and dietary supplements.
Created with a self-forming base that fastens flat upon expansion, the crash-lock box reliably holds heavier items to prevent structural failure while both packaging variations ship flat and construct rapidly.
Postal and mailer boxes
For those retailing online, a tailored mailer box secures your creation during its challenging journey. All at once, a simple delivery becomes an memorable chapter of your brand story.
By using double-sided printing, a customised mailer box elevates the normal delivery into a polished unboxing event for online shoppers, whilst retaining the structural integrity required to endure the postal journey intact.
We additionally manufacture gusseted e-commerce boxes, which neatly fit items that require a greater or adjustable fit.
Sleeves and wallets
To easily add branding without replacing your current packaging, you can just fit a slip-on sleeve around the product or its inner tray, creating a cost-effective solution for holiday ranges and exclusive collections.
Designed to surround your merchandise like a streamlined folder, this wallet-style packaging delivers an elegant and flat display that is perfectly suited for displaying cards, prints and slim retail items.
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
Personalised gift boxes deliver the high-end presentation retail customers anticipate for gift purchases whilst fully eliminating the need to wrap anything.
First, choose rigid boxes, magnetic-close boxes and printed inserts, then add finishes like foil stamping, embossing and soft-touch lamination to create premium packaging that readily warrants a greater price point.
Packaging design support if you do not have a designer
Are you bring your ideas to life? We provide full creative support as part of our service, whatever stage your artwork is at!
Once you provide us with your current brand guidelines and print-ready artwork, we will diligently work to these guidelines to ready your final files for the manufacturing process.
Because packaging demands significantly greater resolution than a website , we must prepare any provided JPEG or alternative image file format for print use.
Starting from just a simple concept, our specialists design the packaging configuration and press-ready graphics on your behalf, while engineering a bespoke blueprint when conventional containers are unsuitable. We clarify each technical decision throughout the process, including the selection of material calibre and image definition.
Alternatively, you can utilise our digital creation space to personalise a carton and preview your logo prior to contacting the team, or simply arrange an aesthetic session if you prefer to discuss your ideas beforehand.

Every industry has its own distinct set of standards, ranging from stringent food safety compliance to the flawless finish required for a luxury carton!
Food and drink

Are you ready for top-tier quality? Since that exact team makes your boxes on their personal presses, making sure every print and finish aligns with the elite standards of an established manufacturer!
We provide a virtual layout and a physical prototype for approval before commencing entire production.
Sustainable packaging as standard
We create each one of our boxes to be fully recyclable, a environmentally friendly quality that comes entirely from the inherent composition of the board itself.
We obtain all board and paper from FSC and PEFC certified suppliers to guarantee complete tracking from audited origins to responsibly managed forests.
Used heavily for shipping boxes and delivery boxes, corrugated board provides robust protection whilst staying one of the commonly recycled packaging mediums across the United Kingdom.
We are systematically removing single-use plastic and expanded polystyrene from our operations because these materials create major recyclability challenges and cause significant environmental damage once discarded.
Why not swap to eco-friendly, paper-based shielding alternatives and entirely design out waste wherever your scheme allows?
Order one box or ten thousand
Custom packaging generally demands an first manufacturing run of at least 500 or 1,000 individual boxes.
When a business introduces a fresh item or describes a limited seasonal range, they have to pay for both stock and warehousing costs long before any sales are certain.
By placing no minimum order restrictions whatsoever, we empower you to pick the exact volume required, ranging from a single box to a production run of 10,000, thus making sure that an opening limited batch serves as a highly cost-effective method to evaluate marketplace demand.
We offer clear written quotes for any volume before manufacturing starts, and since repeated orders utilise the original artwork, you can expand without the need to redesign your packaging.

Custom packaging Baillieston FAQ
What counts as custom packaging?
Custom packaging aligns with your product sizes and details exactly. Dimensions, board thickness, construction, printing and finishes are adapted to your cargo to provide a precise fit and support your brand. Adding a logo onto a standard carton merely creates branded packaging. True made-to-order packaging is built around the product itself.
Is there a minimum order?
Whether you need a sole container or thousands upon thousands, we handle all orders because we impose no minimum volume requirements across any of our packaging styles. This flexible approach is particularly structured to support boutique creators as well as businesses debuting or trialling a new market offering. Our pricing structures typically favour larger volumes, and we always provide a full written quotation prior to manufacturing.
