Why select tailor-made packaging
A regular box leaves space around the item, allowing it to rattle during transport until somebody fills the space with foam or paper to hold it still.
Selecting off-the-shelf packaging with a sticker on the side may be easy, but it belongs to no one in particular.
Custom Pack Studio creates tailored packaging around your product, making sure the box, print and finish support your brand rather than covering it.
We make custom-made boxes, mailer boxes, gift packaging and printed accessories for companies across Crindau and the nearby valleys, with orders spanning one sample to a full pallet delivered directly to a warehouse door.
We have no minimum order for anything we produce, so stock and storage expenses remain unnecessary until you know a product will sell.
Provide your packaging requirements, and we will adapt the recommendation to the product itself.
What personalised packaging involves
Custom packaging creates the box around your product from the outset, so its size and printing reflect exactly what you are packing.
Choose your dimensions and create a custom-sized box that keeps the product snug, preventing it from rattling about in the unoccupied space of a standard-sized box.
Even the structure, board weight, print and finish are bespoke to accommodate what is being packed and the way it travels!
Printing a logo onto a stock box amounts to personalised packaging, a less extensive undertaking than completely customisable design.
With customised packaging, every panel, fold and finish can be tailored, even for a single item, enabling you to create packaging that fits exactly and with no compromise.
Packing formats we make for Crindau businesses
We manufacture a full range of packaging boxes to custom sizes, printed in full colour with your artwork.
Selecting the right box style and packaging type depends on your product and the way it is handled. Our packaging experts will guide you through the available options.
Store cartons and branded packaging
Reverse tuck end cartons continue to be a retail packaging standard, well suited for lighter products such as cosmetics and supplements, with flaps that fold in at both the top and bottom.
Crash lock boxes are sturdier cardboard lock boxes with a base that snaps flat upon opening, stopping heavier products from forcing the bottom out.
Mailer and internet shop boxes
A bespoke mailer box protects your product throughout the courier network and turns delivery into part of the brand experience and visibility, with printing on the inside and outside rather than solely across the outer face.
Gusseted variants of these custom printed boxes provide extra depth, allowing bulkier items room to sit securely without shifting.
Present boxes, sturdy boxes and gable boxes
Rigid boxes, magnetic close gift boxes and other branded boxes provide products bought as gifts with the polished presentation customers anticipate, removing the need for customers to wrap them themselves.
Gable boxes, fitted with a handle that folds upwards, are an excellent choice for food gifts and hampers.
For premium ranges, we may specify SBS board, meaning, solid bleached sulphate, a bright, food-safe paperboard, rather than standard carton stock. Foil and soft touch lamination can enhance further the finish.
Create guidance for your Crindau company
We offer packaging design support with every order, regardless of your artwork’s current stage.
After your logo and brand guidelines are established, our design experts prepare files suitable for print and make sure colours remain true on board, where packaging demands higher resolution than website imagery.
You do not need design experience to develop packaging that suits your brand. Our team can start with only a logo. Working together, they determine the structure and create expertly designed, print ready artwork, explaining each technical decision as the project progresses.
Our online tool lets you personalise a box and view its look and feel on your screen before printing. We also provide Pantone colour matching, keeping every repeat order consistent.
When you need packaging printed in both English and Welsh in English and Welsh, our team considers this as a standard artwork requirement, managed in exactly the same manner as any other language or colour change.
Personalised packaging for Crindau’s industries
Food and libations
Welsh Lamb and Welsh Beef both have Protected Geographical Indication status, whereas food packaging contacting meat or dairy must meet food contact standards, irrespective of where it is produced on either side of the border.
We hold BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, which means our food packaging is produced in controlled, traceable conditions that retailers review prior to listing products.
Tipples and spirit makers
Over the past twenty years, Wales has developed a thriving drinks scene, spanning Brecon Beacons distilleries and more recent gin and whisky producers in the north.
Bottle presentation boxes must withstand transit while retaining shelf appeal, with finishes including foil stamping and embossing delivering much of the impact for a limited release or seasonal gift set.
Skincare and aesthetics
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, whereas rigid boxes pair with premium ranges designed to support a higher price point.
E-commerce and recurring categories
Retail and display packaging is key when a product is placed in a shop or marketplace fulfilment centre, whereas subscription brands encounter a different assessment.
Every month, the same customer revisits an almost identical box, making a dependable finish equally important as the original design.
Effective online retail packaging, made to correspond to your product packaging precisely, keeps goods secure in transit and minimises damage claims and returns.
Within, a fitted insert or printed tissue holds the product securely during transport, as the print greets the eye the moment the box opens.
Subscription-based brands that reorder each month can keep pallet space and warehouse racking consistent by retaining one box size. This becomes more important over time when order volumes rise above several hundred units.
Supplying to Crindau from our Scotland atelier
All products are manufactured at our Irvine facility, with standard UK delivery to businesses in Crindau.
Most orders reach a Crindau address within two to three weeks following proof approval, using the same timetable as all our packaging across the UK.
Custom Pack Studio belongs to KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, a packaging manufacturer producing print and packaging since 1997, which means an established team produces the boxes with its own presses.
You get a proof and, where the format calls for it, a physical sample prior to full production starts. Reorders use the same artwork, so scaling up never requires again.
Using a single box company for packaging throughout your entire range of products keeps everything simple.
You get one invoice and work through a single point of contact, rather than pursuing multiple suppliers, each quoting different prices for separate weeks.
Ethical packaging as default
Each box we make is entirely recyclable, thanks to the board it is made from.
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 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 once a parcel has been opened.
Where the design permits, biodegradable or paper-based protection replaces them.
Zero minimum order quantity for Crindau businesses
Across much of the industry, custom packaging requires minimum orders of 500 or 1,000 units, requiring you to finance stock and storage before establishing whether a product will sell.
We require no minimum order whatsoever.
Small businesses can begin with a single sample, place a limited trial run, or move to full production once demand is established, while unit pricing scales across every quantity in between.
You will always receive a written quote prior to production commencing, while the high quality materials and packaging products provided for a run of fifty are identical to those supplied for a run of ten thousand.
Prior to ordering in volume, request a printed sample to assess the print, colour and fit in your hand.

Personalised wrapping Crindau Common Questions
Can you supply bespoke packaging to Crindau?
Yes. We manufacture all items in Irvine and offer standard delivery throughout the UK, including every part of Crindau and Wales, without an additional charge simply because of the distance from our factory.
What’s is the least parcel order in Crindau?
No minimum order is required. You can order a single box or several thousand in whatever format, with pricing adjusted according to quantity in a written quotation issued before production begins.
Which packaging elements can I tailor?
Each format can be tailored in terms of size, structure, board weight, print and finish, ensuring your packaging meets the brief perfectly. Looking to make an impact? Your branded packaging order can feature printing both inside and outside.
Is it possible that I request examples of your wrapping materials before submitting an order?
Absolutely! Your sample is delivered printed and finished precisely as it would be in production, enabling you to verify the colours satisfy your brief and make sure the board feels right before authorising a bulk order.
Would the packaging turn out to be recyclable as well as can it also be biodegradable?
Each box is 100% recyclable. We avoid plastic laminates that prevent recycling unless food safety requires them, while biodegradable protective materials are employed whenever the format allows.
Can I get again the same template later?
Yes, reorders use the original artwork file, so increasing an order or placing it again for another season doesn’t require the packaging to be redesigned from the ground up.
