Compelling reasons go for personalised packaging
A conventional box leaves space around the product, allowing it to rattle during transit until foam or paper is added to prevent movement.
Conventional packaging with a label applied to its side may be convenient, but it is intended for no specific audience.
Custom Pack Studio makes custom-made packaging for your product, making sure that the box, print and finish complement your brand instead of overshadowing it.
We manufacture bespoke boxes, mailer boxes, gift packaging and printed accessories for companies throughout Colwyn Bay and surrounding valleys, with orders varying from one sample to a pallet delivered straight to a warehouse door.
You can purchase any quantity of the products we make, so stock and storage costs remain unneeded until you have established that a product sells.
Share your packaging requirements, and we will tailor the recommendation to the product itself.
What custom packaging means
Custom packaging begins with your product, with the box dimensions and print specification designed to suit exactly what you are packing.
By selecting the dimensions, you make sure that a custom sized box secures the product securely, rather than letting it to rattle within the unnecessary space of a standard size.
Even the structure, board weight, print and finish are custom designed to accommodate what is being packed and the way it travels!
Printing a logo on a stock box creates personalised packaging, but it is a less extensive project than a completely customisable design.
With tailored packaging, every panel, fold and finish can be altered, even for a single unit, enabling you to create custom packaging that fits perfectly.
Packing formats we make for Colwyn Bay firms
We produce a broad range of packaging boxes, each produced to bespoke dimensions and printed in full colour using your artwork.
Choosing the appropriate box style and packaging type hinges on your product and the way it is handled. Our packaging specialists will take you through the options available.
Retail cartons and custom branded packaging
Reverse tuck end cartons are still a familiar retail packaging choice for lightweight products, including cosmetics and supplements, featuring flaps that fold neatly into both the top and bottom.
Crash lock boxes are a sturdier kind of lock box, constructed from cardboard and having a base that snaps flat when opened, preventing heavier products from forcing the bottom out.
Postal and online retail boxes
A custom mailer box protects your product throughout the courier network and makes delivery part of the brand experience and visibility, with printing inside and out instead of only on the outer face.
Gusseted versions of these custom printed boxes create additional depth, allowing bulkier items space to rest securely without shifting.
Gift boxes, rigid boxes and gable boxes
Rigid boxes, gift boxes with magnetic closures and other branded boxes provide products purchased as presents the polished presentation customers anticipate, without customers needing to wrap them.
Gable boxes featuring folding carry handles suit food gifts and hampers.
For premium ranges, we may select SBS board (solid bleached sulphate, a bright, food safe paperboard) over standard carton stock, while finishes such as foil and soft touch lamination enhance the result.
Build support for your Colwyn Bay venture
Each order includes packaging design support, regardless of how far your artwork has progressed.
If you have a logo and brand guidelines, our design experts prepare print-ready files and check that colours stay accurate on board, because packaging requires greater resolution than an image on a website.
You need not have any previous design experience to create packaging that reflects your brand. Our team can start with only a logo. Together, you will establish the structure and produce professionally designed, print ready artwork, while we explain each technical decision as it arises.
Our online tool allows you to personalise a box and preview its look on screen before printing, while Pantone colour matching ensures consistency whenever you make a repeat order.
If you need packaging produced in both English and Welsh, our team treats it as a routine artwork requirement, exactly like any other language or colour change.
Personalised packaging for the Colwyn Bay’s industries
Food and libations
Welsh Lamb and Welsh Beef both hold Protected Geographical Indication status, while all food packaging that comes into contact with meat or dairy must meet food contact standards, regardless of where it is manufactured.
We hold BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, confirming our food packaging is made in controlled, traceable conditions reviewed by retailers prior to stocking products onto their shelves.
Refreshments and spirit-making venues
Over the past two decades, Wales has established a thriving drinks scene, spanning Brecon Beacons distilleries and newer gin and whisky producers in the north.
Bottle presentation boxes must endure transit while maintaining their shelf appeal, with finishes such as foil stamping and embossing contributing much of the impact for a limited-edition release or seasonal gift set.
Skincare and glamour
For cosmetic and skincare brands, cartons must protect delicate glass and compacts while looking beautifully on the shelf.
We create cosmetics packaging with soft touch lamination, foil and embossing, while rigid boxes complement premium ranges intended to support a higher price point.
Internet commerce and subscription tags
Retail ready and display packaging are significant when products occupy shops or marketplace fulfilment centres, but subscription brands face a distinct challenge.
Each month, the same customer opens a nearly identical box, rendering a uniform finish just as important as the initial design.
Effective online retail packaging, produced to match your product packaging exactly, keeps goods protected in transit and reduces damage claims and returns.
A fitted insert or printed tissue stops the product from moving during transit, while making sure the print is straight away visible when the box is opened.
When a subscription brand reorders monthly, maintaining uniform box dimensions keeps pallet capacity and warehouse racking predictable, an ever more important consideration once volumes exceed several hundred units.
Sending to Colwyn Bay from our Scottish-based factory
All products are manufactured within our Irvine facility, with standard UK delivery to businesses in Colwyn Bay.
Most orders arrive at a Colwyn Bay address within two to three weeks following proof approval, following the same timetable as our packaging throughout the UK.
Custom Pack Studio belongs to KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, an established packaging manufacturer producing print and packaging since 1997. Its experienced team produces the boxes on its own presses!
You approve a proof and, where needed by the format, a physical sample before full production begins, while reorders keep the original artwork, meaning larger quantities require no fresh preparation.
Employing a single box company for packaging across your whole product range simplifies the process.
You have one invoice and a single dedicated point of contact, rather than pursuing several suppliers, each quoting a different price for a different week.
Planet-friendly packaging as usual practice
Each box we manufacture is 100% recyclable as the board itself is recyclable.
We source our board and paper from FSC and PEFC certified suppliers, with each sheet tracked through an audited chain of custody to responsibly managed forests.
We’re cutting down on single use plastic and EPS foam void fill throughout our processes because neither is easily recycled, while both create disposal headaches after a parcel has been opened.
When the design permits, biodegradable or paper-based protective materials are employed in their place.
Zero minimum purchase for Colwyn Bay firms
Across the sector, custom packaging frequently requires minimum orders of 500 or 1,000 units, forcing you to fund stock and storage before knowing whether a product will sell.
There is no minimum order requirement whatsoever.
Small businesses are able to order a single sample, a limited trial run, or a complete production batch once they have proved demand, with per unit pricing adjusted for each order quantity across the range.
You receive a written quote before production starts, while the high-quality materials and packaging products provided for a run of fifty are the same as those supplied for a run of ten thousand.
Before committing to a greater quantity, get a printed sample and assess the print, colour and how it fits in your hand.
How to order bespoke packs
Provide your brief by calling 01294 314 919 or accessing the online design tool. Let us know the product, quantity required, and roughly how it is sold.
Design and print proofing. We create packaging that suits your product, prepare the print layout, and provide a proof for your approval.
Ask for a tangible sample where the format requires one, then give approval once you are satisfied with its colour and construction.
Production and delivery. Your order is printed and finished in Irvine, subsequently delivered to your Colwyn Bay address, usually within two to three weeks.
Bespoke packaging Colwyn Bay Support
Can you deliver bespoke packaging to Colwyn Bay?
Indeed! We produce everything in Irvine and deliver throughout the UK by default, including every part of Colwyn Bay and throughout Wales, with no additional fee solely because you are further from the factory.
Which is the minimum package threshold for Colwyn Bay?
No minimum order is required. You may order a one box or several thousand in any format, with pricing scaled to quantity in a written quotation issued before production begins.
Which parts of the packaging can I customise?
Each aspect of the format, such as size, structure, board weight, print and finish, can be adjusted, ensuring that the packaging aligns precisely with your brief. Branded packaging may additionally be printed internally and externally.
Could you offer packaging item samples prior to I place an order?
Absolutely! Your sample is delivered printed and finished exactly as it would be in production, allowing you to verify the colours meet your brief and make sure the board feels right before approving a bulk order.
Would the packaging turn out to be recyclable as well as can it turn out to be biodegradable?
All boxes are 100% recyclable. We do not use plastic laminates which prevent recycling unless food safety requires them. Biodegradable protective materials are available where the format permits.
Is it possible to I upload the same layout at a later time?
Yes, reorders utilise the original artwork file, so increasing an order or placing it again for a new season doesn’t require the packaging to be redesigned from scratch.
