Why go for tailored packaging?
A standard box provides 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 particular audience.
At Custom Pack Studio, custom-made packaging is shaped around your product, ensuring the box, print and finish support your brand instead of overshadowing it.
We manufacture custom boxes, mailer boxes, gift packaging and printed accessories for companies across Cwmbwrla and the valleys beyond, with orders ranging from a single sample to a complete pallet delivered directly to your warehouse door.
You can purchase any quantity of what we make, so stock and storage expenses remain unneeded until you have confirmed that a product sells.
Share your packaging requirements, and we’ll tailor the recommendation to fit the product precisely.
What tailored packaging means
Custom packaging shapes the box around your product from the start, with its dimensions and print tailored to what you are packing.
You choose the dimensions, allowing a made-to-measure box to hold the product securely without movement resulting from excess 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 how it travels.
Printing a logo onto a stock box produces personalised packaging, requiring less work than a fully customisable design.
With bespoke packaging, every panel, fold and finish can be adjusted, even for just one unit, allowing you to create custom packaging that fits exactly.
Wrapping options we manufacture for Cwmbwrla businesses
We manufacture a wide selection of packaging boxes, each made to bespoke dimensions and printed in full colour using your artwork.
Choosing the appropriate box style and packaging is based on what you sell and how it is handled, while our packaging experts will guide you through the options available.
Shop cartons and bespoke brand packaging
Reverse tuck end cartons are a retail packaging staple, designed for lighter products including cosmetics and supplements, with flaps that tuck securely inside at both the top and bottom.
Crash lock boxes are a stronger type of cardboard lock box, with a base that snaps flat when opened, preventing heavier products from forcing the bottom out.
Shipping and web store boxes
A custom-made mailer box safeguards your product across the courier network and turns delivery into part of the brand experience and visibility, with printing inside and out rather than only across the outer face.
Gusseted versions of these custom printed boxes provide extra depth, allowing bulkier items room to rest securely without shifting.
Gift boxes, sturdy boxes and roof-shaped boxes
Rigid boxes, gift boxes with magnetic closures and additional branded boxes give presents a polished presentation customers expect, without requiring them to wrap anything themselves.
Gable boxes, featuring a fold up carry handle, are well suited to food gifts and hampers.
For high-end 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 improve the outcome.
Build guidance for your Cwmbwrla business
Every order includes packaging design support, irrespective of how far your artwork has progressed.
If you have a logo and brand guidelines, our design experts prepare print-ready files and verify that the colours stay accurate on board, because packaging needs a higher resolution than a website image.
Previous design experience is not necessary to produce packaging that reflects your brand. Our team can start with nothing more than a logo, developing the structure and professionally designed, ready to print artwork with you, while clarifying each technical decision clearly as it arises.
Our online tool lets you customise a box and view its look and feel on screen before printing. We also provide Pantone colour matching, keeping every repeat order uniform.
Do you need your packaging printed in both English and Welsh? Our staff handles it as a standard artwork requirement, in the same way as any other language or colour change.
Custom packaging for the Cwmbwrla’s industries
Meals and drink
Welsh Lamb and Welsh Beef both hold Protected Geographical Indication status, and all food packaging which comes into contact with meat or dairy must comply with food contact standards, irrespective of which side of the border it is produced on.
We have BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, which means our food packaging is manufactured in controlled, traceable conditions that retailers evaluate before listing a product.
Tipples and spirit producers
Across Wales, a flourishing drinks culture has developed during the past twenty years, stretching from Brecon Beacons distilleries to more recent gin and whisky makers in the north.
Presentation boxes for bottles need to endure transit while remaining eye-catching on the shelf, with finishes such as foil stamping and embossing adding much of the impact to a limited release or seasonal gift set.
Beauty products and personal care products for Cwmbwrla
Cosmetic and skincare brands require cartons which protect fragile glass and compacts whilst looking presentable on the shelf.
We produce cosmetics packaging featuring soft touch lamination, foil and embossing, while rigid boxes provide premium ranges the presence to support a higher price point.
Internet commerce and recurring payment brands
Retail and display packaging is important when a product is positioned in a shop or marketplace fulfilment centre, whereas subscription brands face a different evaluation.
As the same customer opens up an almost identical box each month, keeping a consistent finish is just as important as the initial design.
Packaging designed to fit your product’s precise dimensions holds items securely during transit, lowering damage claims and returns from ecommerce orders.
A fitted insert or printed tissue holds the product firmly during transit, while the design is straight away visible when the box opens.
When a subscription brand places repeat orders monthly, maintaining consistent box dimensions keeps pallet capacity and warehouse racking easy to anticipate, an increasingly important consideration once volumes exceed several hundred units.
Sending to Cwmbwrla from our Scottish-based factory
Everything is made at our Irvine facility, with UK delivery to companies in Cwmbwrla provided by default.
Most orders reach a Cwmbwrla address within two to three weeks following proof approval, keeping to the same schedule as our packaging throughout the UK.
Custom Pack Studio belongs to KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, a long-established packaging manufacturer producing print and packaging since 1997. Its experienced team produces the boxes using its own presses.
You sign off on a proof and, where required by the format, a physical sample before full production starts, while reorders retain the original artwork, ensuring larger quantities require no new preparation.
Using a single box company for packaging across your entire product range maintains simplicity.
You get one invoice and liaise with one contact, steering clear of multiple suppliers quoting different prices for different weeks.
Renewable packaging automatically
Every box we produce is fully recyclable, thanks to the board it is made from.
Our board and paper begin with FSC and PEFC certified sources, while each sheet is traced through an audited supply chain to responsibly managed forests.
Throughout our processes, we are reducing single use plastic and EPS foam void fill as neither is easily recyclable, while both pose disposal difficulties after a parcel has been opened.
Where the design permits, biodegradable or paper-based protection takes their place instead.
Zero minimum order quantity for Cwmbwrla companies
Across much of the industry, custom packaging requires minimum orders of 500 or 1,000 units, requiring you to finance stock and storage prior to establishing whether a product will sell.
There is no minimum order requirement .
Small businesses may order a single sample, commission a limited trial run, or move on to full production after demand is established, with unit pricing scaling at every quantity across this range.
You will consistently 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 provided 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.
The process to submit a custom packaging order
Share your brief by phoning 01294 314 919 or using the online design tool, then let us know the product, quantity and approximately how it is sold.
Design and proof. We develop packaging that fits your product, arrange the print layout, and then provide you with a proof for checking.
Ask for a physical sample if the format requires one. Approve it once you are happy with the colour and construction.
Production and delivery. Your order is printed and finished in Irvine before being delivered to your Cwmbwrla address, usually within two to three weeks.
Personalised packaging Cwmbwrla Help
Can you provide tailored packaging to Cwmbwrla?
Yes. We produce each product in Irvine, then deliver throughout the UK as part of our standard service, reaching every corner of Cwmbwrla and the whole of Wales without levying a separate charge because the destination lies further from our factory.
What’s is the smallest packing order in Cwmbwrla?
No minimum order applies. You can order a single box or several thousand in whatever format, with pricing adjusted according to quantity in a written quotation provided before production starts.
What elements of the packaging can I customise?
Each format can be customised in terms of size, structure, board weight, print and finish, making sure your packaging fits the brief perfectly. Looking to make an impact? Your branded packaging order can feature printing both inside and outside.
Can I request samples of your boxing items before submitting an order?
Yes. Your sample arrives printed and finished exactly as it would be in production, allowing you to check that the colours are in line with your brief and the board feels right before authorising a larger order.
Is the packaging become recyclable plus will it break down naturally?
Every box is 100% recyclable. We do not employ plastic laminates which prevent recycling unless food safety makes them necessary, while biodegradable protective materials are provided where the format allows.
Could I get again the same template at a later date?
Yes, reorders utilise the original artwork file, meaning that increasing an order or placing it again for a new season does not require the packaging to be redesigned from scratch.
