What custom packaging means
We engineer our bespoke packaging specifically and carefully for your product, giving you the freedom to select the dimensions, construction, design and coating.
Are you all set to see how customising a typical carton is in fact a entirely distinct and considerably more restricted ballgame?
By selecting our bespoke packaging, you will be provided with customised casing dimensions tailored to your item, relevant board durability selected for its practical journey, and personalised printing on your preferred surfaces.
From the beginning of the design phase, the final packaging is precisely tailored to enclose the product itself.
Custom Pack Studio partners with food production companies, cosmetic companies, e-commerce retailers and craft distilleries across the entire nation.
The custom packaging we make
We produce an extensive range of bespoke packaging designs, each made to your precise dimensions and supplied with excellent, full-colour custom printing.
How does your amazing creation actually find its way to your clients? The perfect packaging style typically depends on those distinct sales and shipping journeys, and our passionate squad is eager to help you pick the ultimate match!
Folding cartons
Standard shop packaging routinely employs the standard types of reverse tuck-end boxes and crash-lock bottom boxes.
Designed with upper and lower closure flaps that insert in reverse directions, the reverse tuck-end carton offers an effective packaging solution for lighter products, such as cosmetics and dietary supplements.
Engineered with a base that automatically secures itself upon expansion, the crash-lock box reliably supports heavier items to prevent possible structural failure, whilst both styles are delivered flat and can be fully constructed in mere moments.
Postal and mailer boxes
For e-commerce merchants, a bespoke mailing carton keeps safe your merchandise whilst in transit during transit and elevates the unboxing experience into a central element of your marketing.
By utilising double-sided printing, a customised mailer box raises the normal delivery into a polished unboxing event for internet shoppers, whilst maintaining the structural integrity required to withstand the postal journey intact.
We also make gusseted ecommerce boxes, giving the ideal, spacious hold for goods requiring a more generous or more flexible fit.
Sleeves and wallets
Looking to find out to boost your brand profile without changing your current boxes? A slide-on sleeve slides easily around your merchandise or inner tray to immediately enhance your appearance! It is the ultimate budget-friendly secret weapon for bringing seasonal ranges and limited limited-edition collections come alive with energy.
Surrounding the contents as a refined portfolio, this wallet-style packaging opens out to reveal a cleanly flat and polished showcase that is ideal for displaying brochures, photographs and slender merchandise.
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
Personalised gift boxes provide the refined presentation retail customers expect for gift purchases whilst fully eliminating the need to wrap anything.
Rigid boxes, magnetic-close boxes and printed inserts are very effective options, while finishes such as foil stamping, embossing and soft-touch lamination raise the presentation into luxury packaging that successfully warrants an premium price point.
Packaging design support if you do not have a designer
Our company offers comprehensive design assistance at all stages of your artwork development.
We create files to your precise brand guidelines and print suitable artwork specs.
Sites are very flexible, yet printed packaging demands total clarity. Therefore, any logo supplied as a JPEG or other image file must be carefully rebuilt before printing.
Beginning with merely a conceptual outline, our specialist specialists will develop both the structural template and the finalised graphics for your project, whilst customising a bespoke packaging design when conventional containers prove unsuitable. We regularly guide you through each technical decision, meticulously clarifying our selection of structural materials and graphic clarity along the journey.
Alternatively, you may utilise our online design programme to tailor a packaging solution and integrate your bespoke corporate identity prior to making contact, or alternatively schedule a creative appointment should you prefer to discuss your requirements earlier.
Custom packaging for Banff’s industries
We manufacture bespoke packaging for drinks brands, food brands, cosmetic labels and e-commerce merchants throughout Banff.
Every industry places particular criteria, from food-contact compliance to the exact surface finish for top-grade cartons.
Food and drink
The North food and drink sector is certainly wide-ranging and highly contested, a busy environment where packaging must guarantee complete protection whilst at the same time attracting consumers from the shelf.
As an organisation holding the prestigious BRC Global Packaging accreditation at High Hygiene level, we manufacture our food containers within highly regulated and fully auditable facilities which supermarkets inspect prior to authorising any merchandise.
Whisky and craft spirits
Our company manufactures bespoke printed bottle cartons alongside high-quality presentation boxes tailored particularly for independent spirit producers and Banff distilleries, incorporating sophisticated embellishments like foil detailing, embossed textures, and elegant soft touch lamination.
By eliminating minimum order restrictions, we empower a distillery to create a small-batch run for an limited release without the burden of committing to excessive volumes.
Cosmetics and beauty
We manufacture bespoke printed cartons for the cosmetics, haircare and skincare industries, elevating each design with high-quality embellishments including embossing, distinctive foil applications and subtle soft-touch lamination.
Beauty containers must preserve sensitive glassware and pressed powders whilst attracting attention on retail displays, a task largely achieved through the selected surface texture.
E-commerce and subscription brands
Looking to impress your customers? We produce branded mailer boxes, printed tissue and fitted inserts for e-commerce sellers and subscription brands!
Custom-fit protection protects the item from transport hazards while cutting the cost of breakage and returns.
Bespoke packaging further offers the consumer a much more immersive experience than just unwrapping a ordinary, unembellished carton.

Prior to your creation is fully brought to life, you will check a proof, alongside a sample if the format requires it.
Sustainable packaging as standard
Have you heard that every single box we make is entirely recyclable? It is true because the actual board we use offers all that eco-friendly goodness!
By procuring our paper and board exclusively from FSC and PEFC certified woodlands, we provide a traceable journey where every single sheet can be checked and traced back to its responsible origins.
Mailers and shipping solutions employ corrugated board because this very durable material protects products and remains one of the most often recycled packaging options in Banff.
We are actively and consistently removing single-use plastic and EPS from our operations because these problematic materials resist recycling and ultimately threaten our vulnerable environment.
Why not just swap to environmentally friendly, paper-based shielding alternatives and completely remove waste wherever your scheme permits?
Order one box or ten thousand
Were you aware that bespoke packaging typically calls for a minimum order of five hundred or even 1,000 units?
When businesses test an unknown item or create limited-run festive ranges, they bear the cost of funding inventory and warehousing prior to confirming the market demand.
As we impose absolutely no minimum order requirements, you retain full control over the volume, whether you need a single individual box or a production run of ten thousand, which means that an early modest batch works as a highly secure method for evaluating consumer demand.
We supply clear, written quotations for orders of any size before production begins, and since return orders utilise the original artwork, you can expand without having to redesign your packaging.

Custom packaging Banff FAQ
What counts as custom packaging?
Bespoke packaging is meticulously engineered to match the exact sizes and individual requirements of your item. All structural element, including the size, material density, configuration, and visual detailing, is carefully tailored for the contents to provide a secure fit while tastefully representing your identity. Whilst merely printing a company symbol onto a pre-made carton counts as personalised packaging, a truly custom solution is developed from the basis of the merchandise itself.
Is there a minimum order?
We set zero minimum order conditions, which means you can order anything from one carton to large quantities. This adaptability benefits indie makers and organisations trying out new merchandise. Your unit cost falls as your order volume grows, and we always provide a documented price estimation ahead of manufacturing.
Do you deliver to Banff?
Our production facility in Irvine enables direct transportation to businesses throughout Banff. Manufacturing within Scotland ensures that both transit times and shipping expenses stay highly affordable for Scottish businesses.
What are your lead times?
Upon your final sign-off of the design, the bulk of commissions require 14 days to 21 days for completion, though simpler packaging often moves faster. Should you possess a firm completion date, please mention this during your initial consultation so we may check our capacity to meet your timeline.
Can you help if I do not have a designer?
Ready to see your core concepts turn into something real? We frequently turn a basic logo and a burst of inspiration and transform them into striking, ready-to-print masterpieces, with a full design consultation built right into the journey!
