What custom packaging means
We create custom packaging built completely around your individual product by providing you full control over the dimensions, style, printing and finish!
Attaching a logo to a ready-made carton is a distinct and much more restricted task.
Our interpretation of a fully bespoke box is that we tailor the sizes carefully to your merchandise, pick the board thickness based on transit demands, and place your graphics to selected surfaces.
We develop the packaging carefully around the product from the outset.
From its creative hub in Bellshill, Custom Pack Studio works with ambitious food producers, boutique cosmetics brands, digital retailers and artisanal spirits makers throughout the country.
The custom packaging we make
Ready to make your packaging ideas a reality? We create a great range of box styles, all custom-made to your specific dimensions and beautifully printed in full colour with your very own artwork!
To determine the most suitable format for your product, we consider its type, sales journey, and distribution approach, and our helpful team is here to support you throughout.
Folding cartons
Standard retail packaging solutions routinely employs the standard formats of reverse tuck-end boxes and crash-lock bottom boxes.
Designed with top and bottom closure flaps that insert in contrary directions, the reverse tuck-end carton offers an effective packaging solution for less heavy products, such as cosmetics and dietary supplements.
First, just open the crash-lock box so the sturdy base slots into place. This reliable design easily takes bulkier products, whilst both formats come flat and build in a few seconds.
Postal and mailer boxes
Tailored mailing boxes protect your e-commerce products during transit and transform standard shipping into a valuable promotional tool.
Who wants plain brown parcels? Double-sided printed mailer boxes offer e-commerce shoppers an impressive unboxing thrill, plus they are strong enough to easily survive the post!
Additionally, we manufacture gusseted e-commerce boxes for items requiring extra depth or an adjustable fit.
Sleeves and wallets
Placing a product or internal tray within a slide-on sleeve creates an stylish branding opportunity that retains the original packaging, providing an exceptionally practical and cost-effective solution for short-term limited lines and select limited-edition releases.
Crafted to surround the item in the manner of a folder, this wallet style box provides an elegant flat display for store items, photos and writing materials.
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
When a product is purchased as a surprise, a custom gift box delivers the beautiful presentation that recipients anticipate while entirely removing them the task of packing.
Can you visualise the impact of rigid boxes, magnetic-close boxes and printed inserts? They fill this space precisely, whilst high-end finishes like foil stamping, embossing and soft-touch lamination instantly enhance the look to luxury packaging that easily achieves a better price!
Packaging design support if you do not have a designer
Comprehensive design support is fully built in into our service, regardless of the present development phase of your artwork.
Have you got brand guidelines and print-ready files set to go? We’ll get straight to work to prepare your designs for production!
When a brand mark is supplied in a bitmap or different pixel format, we precisely reproduce it for production requirements because physical packaging demands a substantially greater level of visual clarity than a digital platform needs.
Starting from a basic initial concept, our specialists refine your packaging architecture and production-ready graphics, designing bespoke structural solutions when stock containers fail to suffice. We explain every technical specification throughout the workflow, including material thickness and image definition.
Alternatively, you may utilise our online creator to tailor a carton and add your own logo before get in touch, or schedule a creative meeting if you prefer discussing your ideas beforehand.

We apply zero minimum order restrictions, which means you can order anything from a single box to many thousands. This adaptability helps indie makers and businesses trialling new merchandise. Your unit cost decreases as your order volume grows, and we always supply a detailed price estimation prior to manufacturing.
