How come choose customised packaging
A standard box leaves space around the product, making it rattle in transit until foam or paper is packed in to prevent movement.
Standard packaging with a sticker attached is the simple choice, yet it has not been designed specifically for anyone.
Custom Pack Studio produces tailored packaging particularly for your product, making sure the box, print and finish uphold your brand rather than overshadowing it.
We make custom-made boxes, mailer boxes, gift packaging and printed accessories for businesses throughout Connah’s Quay and the surrounding valleys, with orders spanning one sample to a complete pallet delivered directly to a warehouse door.
Nothing we produce needs a minimum order, enabling you to set stock and storage costs aside until a product has shown that it sells.
Share your packaging needs, and we will adapt the recommendation to fit the product itself.
What custom packaging entails
Custom packaging designs the box around your product from the start, so its size and printing correspond exactly to what you are putting inside.
You choose the measurements, ensuring a made-to-measure box keeps the product secure rather than letting it rattle within surplus space created by a generic size.
Every aspect, including the construction, board weight, printing and finish, is tailored to the contents and the manner they are transported.
Printing a logo on a stock box amounts to personalised packaging, a more limited undertaking than fully customisable design.
With tailored packaging, every panel, fold and finish can be adjusted, even for a single unit, allowing you to create custom packaging that fits exactly.
Wrapping options we create for Connah’s Quay organisations
We produce a full range of packaging boxes, made to custom sizes and printed in full colour with your artwork.
Choosing the most appropriate box style and packaging format is based on your products and their handling requirements, which our packaging specialists will explain clearly.
Shop containers and labelled packaging
Reverse tuck end cartons are a widely used retail packaging option, suited to lighter products including cosmetics and supplements, with closure flaps that fold into both the top and bottom.
Crash lock boxes are a more robust type of cardboard lock box, with a base that snaps flat when opened, stopping heavier products from forcing the bottom out.
Mailer and electronic commerce boxes
A custom mailer box protects your product throughout the courier network and makes delivery part of the brand experience and visibility, with printing on the inside and outside instead of only on the outer face.
Gusseted versions of these custom printed boxes provide additional depth, allowing bulkier items space to sit securely without shifting.
Keepsake boxes, rigid boxes and roofed boxes
Rigid boxes, magnetic close gift boxes and additional branded boxes provide products bought as gifts with the polished presentation customers anticipate, removing the need for customers to wrap them themselves.
Gable boxes, featuring a fold up carry handle, are suitable for food presents and hampers.
For premium ranges, we may select SBS board, solid bleached sulphate and a bright, food safe paperboard, over standard carton stock, while foil and soft touch lamination enhance the finished effect.
Build support for your Connah’s Quay enterprise
We offer packaging design support with every order, irrespective of your artwork’s current stage.
After your logo and brand guidelines are in place, our design experts prepare files suitable for print and make sure colours remain true on board, where packaging demands greater resolution than website imagery.
You do not need design experience to create packaging that suits your brand. Our team can start with only a logo. Together, they develop the structure and professionally produced print ready artwork, while supporting you through each technical decision throughout the process.
Our online tool lets you personalise a box and check its appearance on screen before printing, while Pantone colour matching ensures that repeat orders remain consistent.
If you require packaging printed in both English and Welsh, our team regards this as a routine artwork requirement and handles it just as we would any other language or colour alteration.
Bespoke packaging for the Connah’s Quay’s industries
Dishes and drinks
Welsh Lamb and Welsh Beef hold Protected Geographical Indication status, while all food packaging that comes into contact with meat or dairy must satisfy food contact standards, regardless of where it is manufactured on either side of the border.
We have BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, meaning our food packaging is made in controlled, traceable conditions that retailers assess before including a product.
Tipples and liquor makers
Over the past twenty years, Wales has developed a flourishing drinks industry, encompassing Brecon Beacons distilleries and more recent gin and whisky makers in the north.
Bottle presentation boxes must withstand transit while maintaining their shelf appeal, with finishes including foil stamping and embossing contributing much of the impact for a limited release or seasonal gift set.
Makeup and self-care
Cosmetic and skincare brands need cartons that protect delicate glass and compacts while being prominent on the shelf.
We manufacture cosmetics packaging featuring soft touch lamination, foil and embossing, while rigid boxes give premium ranges the presence to support a higher price point.
Online commerce and recurring payment brands
Packaging intended for retail shelves or marketplace fulfilment centres matters, however, subscription brands encounter a particular challenge.
Because the same customer opens up an nearly identical box every month, maintaining a consistent finish is just as important as the initial design.
Effective ecommerce packaging, tailored precisely to your product packaging, keeps items secure in transit while reducing damage claims and returns.
A fitted insert or printed tissue stops the product from moving during transport, while ensuring the print is instantly visible when the box is opened.
For a subscription brand that places repeat orders each month, keeping consistent box dimensions maintains predictable pallet capacity and warehouse racking, becoming progressively important as volumes exceed several hundred units.
Shipping to Connah’s Quay from our Scottish workshop
Everything is made at our Irvine site, with delivery across the UK to businesses in Connah’s Quay provided as standard.
After proof approval, the majority of orders reach a Connah’s Quay address within two to three weeks, matching our packaging delivery schedule across the UK.
Custom Pack Studio belongs to KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, a well-established packaging manufacturer producing print and packaging since 1997. Its experienced team makes the boxes using its own presses.
You get a proof and, where required by the format, a physical sample before full production begins. Reorders use the same artwork, making it possible to scale up without starting the process again.
Using one box company for packaging throughout your whole product line keeps everything straightforward.
Everything passes through one invoice and a single point of contact, sparing you the frustration of chasing several suppliers quoting different prices for different weeks.
Sustainable packaging as expected
Every box we make is 100% recyclable as the board itself makes possible that recyclability.
Our board and paper start with FSC and PEFC certified sources, while every sheet is traced through an audited supply chain to responsibly managed forests.
We are cutting down on single use plastic and EPS foam void fill across our processes because neither can be readily recycled, and both create difficulties with disposal after a parcel has been opened.
Where the design allows, biodegradable or paper-based protection is used instead.
Zero minimum buy for Connah’s Quay businesses
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 requirement for a minimum order .
Small businesses can start with a single sample, place a limited trial run, or proceed with full production once demand is confirmed, while unit pricing scales across each quantity in between.
You always get a written quotation before production starts, and the high quality materials and packaging products supplied for fifty are identical to those supplied for ten thousand.
Before placing a large order, obtain a printed sample to evaluate its print, colour and its fit in your hand.
