Why would you pick custom packaging
A regular box creates empty space around the product, enabling it to rattle during transport until someone fills the gap with foam or paper to keep it still.
Standard packaging with a sticker affixed is the straightforward option, but it has not been designed specifically for anyone.
Custom Pack Studio produces bespoke packaging tailored to your product, making sure the box, print and finish reinforce your brand rather than overshadowing it.
We make custom-made boxes, mailer boxes, gift packaging and printed accessories for businesses across Bonymaen and the surrounding valleys, with order quantities spanning one sample to a pallet load delivered straight to a warehouse door.
We impose no minimum order on anything we produce, so you do not incur stock and storage costs until a product demonstrates that it sells.
Share your packaging specifications, and we will customise our recommendation precisely to the product in question.
What personalised packaging means
Custom packaging begins with a box specifically designed for your product, so its dimensions and printed finish exactly reflect what it contains.
You select the measurements, allowing a custom-sized box to keep the product firmly without movement caused by surplus space in a standard size.
The structure, board weight, print and finish are custom designed as well, carefully matched to what is being packed and the way it travels.
Adding a logo to a stock box creates personalised packaging, providing a more modest project than completely customisable design.
With customised packaging, every panel, fold and finish can be tailored, even for a single item, helping you to create packaging that fits exactly without compromise.
Parcel styles which we develop for Bonymaen businesses
We create a complete range of packaging boxes, each made to bespoke sizes and printed in full colour using your artwork.
Selecting the appropriate box style and packaging type depends on your product and how it is handled. Our packaging specialists will guide you through the options available.
Store containers and custom packaging
Reverse tuck end cartons are a popular choice for retail packaging, ideal for lighter products such as cosmetics and supplements, featuring flaps that fold inwards at both the upper end and lower end.
Crash lock boxes are more robust cardboard lock boxes with a base that snaps flat upon opening, stopping heavier items from forcing the bottom out.
Posting and online retail parcels
A custom mailer box safeguards your product throughout the courier network, while turning delivery into part of the brand experience and strengthening visibility because it is printed on the inside and outside, not only across the outer face.
Gusseted versions of these custom printed boxes provide extra depth, giving bulkier items room to sit securely without shifting.
Keepsake boxes, sturdy containers and roofed boxes
Rigid boxes, gift boxes with magnetic closures and other branded boxes provide products bought as presents the polished presentation customers anticipate, without customers needing to wrap them.
Gable boxes with folding carry handles are well suited to food presents and hampers.
For premium lines, we may choose SBS board, solid bleached sulphate and a bright, food safe paperboard, rather than standard carton stock, while foil and soft touch lamination enhance the final effect.
Design backing for your Bonymaen business
Each order includes packaging design support, irrespective of how far your artwork has progressed.
If you have a logo and branding guidelines, our design experts produce print-ready files and confirm that colours are reproduced correctly on board, as packaging requires higher resolution than website imagery.
Previous design experience is not required to create packaging that reflects your brand. Our team can start with no more than a logo, developing the structure and expertly designed, ready to print artwork alongside you, while clarifying each technical decision clearly as it comes up.
Our online tool allows you to customise a box and preview its appearance on screen prior to printing, while Pantone colour matching ensures that repeat orders remain consistent.
When you need packaging produced in both English and Welsh, our team considers it a routine artwork requirement, exactly like any other language or colour change.
Bespoke packaging for Bonymaen’s businesses
Cuisine and libations
Welsh Lamb and Welsh Beef both hold Protected Geographical Indication status, whilst all packaging that comes into contact with meat or dairy must satisfy food contact requirements, irrespective of which side of the border it is manufactured.
We have BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, meaning our food packaging is produced in controlled and traceable conditions that retailers verify prior to listing products.
Drinks and distilleries
During the past two decades, Wales has established a genuine drinks scene, from distilleries in Brecon Beacons to more recent gin and whisky producers farther north.
Bottle presentation boxes have to survive transit and appear smart on the shelf as well! Finishes such as foil stamping and embossing deliver much of the impact for a limited release or seasonal gift set.
Beauty treatments and skincare products
Cosmetic and skincare brands require cartons that protect delicate glass and compacts whilst presenting well on the shelf.
We produce cosmetics packaging with soft touch lamination, foil and embossing, whereas rigid boxes pair with premium ranges designed to support a higher price point.
Internet commerce and subscription companies
Packaging intended for retail display is important when a product sits in a store or marketplace fulfilment centre, yet subscription brands face an entirely different challenge.
The same customer opens a nearly identical box every month, which makes a uniform finish as important as the original design.
High-quality e-commerce packaging, made precisely to fit your product packaging, keeps items safe in transit and lowers damage claims and returns.
Inside, a fitted insert or printed tissue keeps the product securely during transit, while the print greets the eye the moment the box opens.
For a subscription-based brand that reorders monthly, keeping uniform box dimensions preserves predictable pallet capacity and warehouse racking, becoming increasingly important as volumes surpass several hundred units.
Sending to Bonymaen from our Scotland
All items are made at our Irvine facility, with UK delivery to businesses in Bonymaen supplied as standard.
Most orders arrive at a Bonymaen address within two to three weeks following proof approval, following the same schedule as our packaging throughout the UK.
Custom Pack Studio is part of KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, a packaging manufacturer producing print and packaging since 1997. Its long-standing team makes the boxes on its own presses.
You receive a proof and, where required by the format, a physical sample before full production begins. Repeat orders use the same artwork, allowing you to scale up without starting the process again.
Using one box company for packaging across your whole product range preserves simplicity.
You receive one invoice and operate through a single point of contact, instead of pursuing multiple suppliers, each quoting different prices for individual weeks.
Earth-friendly packaging as expected
Every box we create is completely recyclable, with this recyclability stemming from the board itself.
We procure our board and paper from FSC and PEFC certified suppliers, with every sheet tracked through an audited chain of custody to responsibly managed forests.
We are cutting back on single use plastic and EPS foam void fill across our processes as neither is easily recyclable, and both cause disposal issues after a parcel is opened.
Where the design permits, biodegradable or paper-based protection is used instead of them.
There’s no minimum buy for Bonymaen enterprises.
Throughout much of the industry, custom packaging requires minimum orders of 500 or 1,000 units, obliging you to fund stock and storage prior to determining whether a product will sell.
There is no minimum order requirement .
Small businesses can start with one sample, place a small trial run, or proceed with full production once demand is confirmed, while unit pricing scales across every quantity in between.
You will always receive a written quotation before production begins, while the high quality materials and packaging products supplied for a run of fifty are identical to those supplied for a run of ten thousand.
Prior to placing a large order, obtain a printed sample to evaluate its print, colour and its fit in your hand.

Personalised packaging Bonymaen Frequently Asked Questions

There is no minimum order requirement applies. You can request one box or several thousand in whatever format, with pricing adjusted according to quantity in a written quote issued before production commences.
Which packing components can I tailor?
Every format can be tailored in terms of size, structure, board weight, print and finish, making sure your packaging fits the brief perfectly. Want to make an impact? Your branded packaging order can include printing both inside and outside.
May I receive specimens of your packing products before placing an order?
Certainly! Your sample is delivered printed and finished exactly as it would be in production, allowing you to verify the colours satisfy your brief and make sure the board feels right before approving a bulk order.
Will the packaging be recyclable in addition to that can it turn out to be biodegradable?
Every box is completely recyclable. We avoid plastic laminates that prevent recycling, unless food safety makes them necessary, while biodegradable protective materials are provided wherever the format allows.
May one place another order for the same design in the future?
Indeed, reorders use the same artwork file, so increasing an order or repeating it for another season does not require the packaging to be redesigned from the beginning.
