What custom packaging means
We create tailored packaging built entirely around your specific product by giving you absolute control over the size, style, print and finish!
By contrast, adding a bespoke logo onto a standard, pre-made carton constitutes a separate task with limited customization options.
By choosing our bespoke packaging, you will get customised casing dimensions matched to your item, appropriate board durability selected for its practical journey, and personalised printing over your preferred surfaces.
From the very first spark of the design process, the packaging is thoughtfully conceived to embrace the product.
Custom Pack Studio partners with food production companies, cosmetic companies, digital retailers and small-batch distilleries across the whole of the nation as a whole.
The custom packaging we make
Are you ready to bring your packaging dreams to life? We manufacture a great selection of box styles, custom-made to your precise dimensions and expertly printed in full colour with your very own artwork!
Choosing the most suitable presentation for your item is a task dictated by its particular nature, route to market, and ultimate delivery, a path our specialist specialists will support you through.
Folding cartons
To package retail products, businesses routinely use the standard formats of reverse tuck-end boxes and crash-lock bottom boxes.
Designed with upper and lower closure flaps that insert in opposite directions, the reverse tuck-end carton offers a suitable packaging solution for lightweight products, such as cosmetics and dietary supplements.
Engineered with a bottom that mechanically interlocks upon assembly, the crash-lock box effortlessly supports weightier merchandise to stop any structural collapse, whilst both packaging styles are supplied in a collapsed state and can be fully constructed in mere moments.
Postal and mailer boxes
For online retailers, bespoke mailing boxes protect products during transit whilst making the delivery process into an extension of your brand image.
Double-sided printing changes a standard mailer box from a simple transit package into a lasting unboxing journey whilst maintaining the strength required to withstand the postal system.
We also produce gusseted ecommerce boxes, giving the ideal, roomy fit for items requiring a greater or adaptable fit.
Sleeves and wallets
A elegant sleeve slides smoothly over an item or inner tray to immediately introduce eye-catching branding whilst preserving the original packaging, providing an remarkably smart and budget-friendly solution for showcasing exclusive seasonal lines and special-edition releases.
Surrounding the contents as an elegant portfolio, this wallet-style packaging opens to display a cleanly flat and sophisticated showcase that is ideal for presenting brochures, photographs and slender merchandise.
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
When acquiring items intended as presents, employing a tailored presentation box enhances the general appearance to satisfy consumer needs whilst fully eliminating the need for manual wrapping.
Sturdy boxes, magnetic-lid boxes and custom printed inserts are highly strong options, while finishes such as foil stamping, embossing and soft-touch lamination raise the presentation into luxury packaging that successfully warrants a elevated price point.
Packaging design support if you do not have a designer
Thorough creative assistance continues an essential component of our service, irrespective of the ongoing development phase of your artwork.
We create files to your specific brand guidelines and print-ready artwork specs.
To get ready your packaging materials for print, we recreate any logo supplied as a JPEG or different image format because real-world manufacturing needs a much higher resolution than digital platforms need.
Starting from just a basic concept, we create your box structure and print-ready artwork. Our specialists design bespoke packaging when standard templates do not work. To guide you, we explain every technical detail, including board weight and print resolution.
Why not make use of our handy online design tool to set up a box and apply your branding today, or simply arrange a no-obligation design consultation if you would prefer to talk it through first?
Custom packaging for Carronshore’s industries
Across Carronshore, we produce bespoke packaging for food and drink producers, distilleries, cosmetics brands and online sellers.
Every sector establishes specific requirements, spanning adherence with food hygiene standards to the careful appearance necessary for luxury packaging.
Food and drink
Within the wide-ranging and intensely competitive food and drink sector of Scotland, packaging must satisfy strict safety standards for direct product contact while at the same time attracting visual attention on the retail shelf.
Did you know we maintain BRC Global Packaging certification to High Hygiene level? Our food packaging is made under carefully controlled, auditable conditions that retailers inspect before placing any product!
Whisky and craft spirits
Our experts manufacture bespoke printed bottle cartons and display packaging for artisanal spirit producers and whisky distilleries, employing luxury finishes including spot foil, debossing and tactile lamination.
Distilleries can produce limited releases in small quantities without large-scale commitments thanks to our zero minimum order policy.
Cosmetics and beauty
In need of showstopping packaging? We create printed cartons for skincare, haircare and beauty brands, featuring striking soft-touch lamination, foil and embossing!
Beauty packaging must safeguard delicate glass and compacts whilst maintaining shelf appeal, a task generally accomplished by the chosen finish.
E-commerce and subscription brands
We produce tailored shipping cartons, tailored wrapping paper and bespoke packaging dividers for e-commerce retailers and subscription businesses.
Custom-fit protection secures the item from transit hazards while reducing the cost of breakage and restitutions.
Bespoke packaging offers the client with a considerably more high-end unboxing experience than a standard container.
A packaging supplier perfect for Carronshore businesses
Our Ayrshire facility in Irvine processes every single manufacturing requirement.
We support Carronshore enterprises by maintaining brief lead times and minimising transport fees.
Serving across Carronshore and the greater UK, we ensure a faraway business benefits from the exact same fast service as a neighbour situated just twenty minutes from our factory.
Tailored Pack Studio operates as a division of KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, an established packaging manufacturer which has Scotland-based printing and packaging production since nineteen ninety-seven.
Crafted by our dedicated specialists using their own premium presses, your packaging acquires the superb print quality and flawless finish associated with an esteemed, well-established manufacturer.
We provide a computerised layout and a tangible prototype for approval before commencing entire production.
Sustainable packaging as standard
Each item we produce remains entirely ideal for recycling, and this sustainable feature comes directly from the composition of the board itself.
By procuring our board and paper from FSC and PEFC certified origins, we ensure each sheet is kept fully traceable through an checked pathway to sustainably managed forests.
Are you prepared to uncover the definitive packaging powerhouse? Amazingly durable and protective, corrugated board emerges as a leading champion for UK recycling in both mailing and shipping setups!
Our organisation is actively eliminating single-use plastic and EPS, which is the expanded polystyrene white foam frequently utilised for packaging void fill, within our operational procedures due to the significant challenges these materials create for recycling and the associated environmental damage they cause when discarded.
When the project layout makes it possible, our team suggests choosing recyclable paper or sustainable protective materials whilst deliberately preventing excess surplus.
Order one box or ten thousand
Usually, bespoke packaging needs a minimum order quantity of either around five hundred or 1,000 items.
Testing a new product or producing limited seasonal runs requires businesses to finance stock and storage before securing any sales.
We apply zero minimum order constraints, enabling you to select any amount from a single box to ten thousand. The initial low-volume run gives a reliable way to test demand in the market.
Before commencing manufacture, our specialists supply written costing verification for any order volume, whilst later production runs utilise the identical design assets to make sure that expanding your operations requires no additional packaging development.
How to order custom packaging
Begin your process by phoning 01294 314 919 or filling in our web form to outline the product, the volume, and your preferred retail method. If you are uncertain, we will gladly recommend the most suitable format for you.
We carefully engineer the packaging structure around your specific item, prepare the artwork layout, and then deliver a final proof as well as a physical prototype if the design needs it.
Once you sign off on the proof, your story takes shape. Our Irvine factory will print and finish your order, typically within two to three weeks.
We supply flat-packed packaging prepared for assembly straight to any location in Carronshore or across the UK.
Custom packaging Carronshore FAQ
What counts as custom packaging?
Want packaging tailored precisely to the product’s exact dimensions? Every element from the size and board weight to the structure, print and finish is designed for a precise fit that showcases your brand! Placing a logo on a standard box is just personalised packaging. True custom packaging is expertly designed from the product up!
Is there a minimum order?
Not in the slightest. There are zero order minimums on any selection, so you can order a single box or thousands. This route supports independent creators and those trying a new item. Pricing estimates vary with volume, and you receive a quotation in writing before production.
Do you deliver to Carronshore?
Our Irvine facility creates goods sent straight to businesses in Carronshore. Local production guarantees faster turnaround times and significantly lower transport costs for Scottish brands.
What are your lead times?
Upon your final sign off of the design, the majority of commissions require a fortnight to 3 weeks for completion, though more straightforward packaging often moves faster. Should you hold a definite completion date, please disclose this during your initial consultation so we may check our capacity to fit around your timeline.
Can you help if I do not have a designer?
We often begin our creative journey with just a brand emblem and a fleeting concept, developing your early thoughts into fully developed production-ready files. A collaborative design consultation is woven into this experience to guide your ideas. As an alternative, you can start the process independently by utilising our digital design platform before giving the reins to our specialists whenever you feel prepared.
Is the packaging recyclable?
Each pack is completely recyclable and crafted from FSC and PEFC certified board. We deliberately avoid plastic laminates and coatings that would otherwise prevent efficient recycling, unless food safety standards clearly necessitate these measures, and our team will thoroughly discuss these choices with you ahead of time.
