What custom packaging means
We craft bespoke packaging built entirely around your specific product by providing you absolute control over the dimensions, design, printing and finishing!
Modifying a preassembled carton with a stamped brand mark presents a different and far more restricted undertaking.
Our fully bespoke packaging ensures you receive precise dimensions matched to your item, packaging strength matched to your shipping requirements, and custom print added to your chosen panels.
The development of the packaging begins at the same time with the initial stage of the product design process.
We really adore working with food producers, cosmetics brands, online sellers and craft spirits makers all over the nation!
The custom packaging we make
We manufacture diverse box styles to your format specifications. All order includes bespoke sizing and bold full colour printing of your individual branding.
To establish the perfect format for your product, we assess its character, sales journey, and method of distribution, and our encouraging team is here to assist you throughout.
Folding cartons
For standard retail merchandise, reverse tuck-end cartons and crash-lock bottom cases represent the conventional packaging set-ups.
With closure flaps at the top and base, the subtle reverse tuck end carton beautifully supports light items like cosmetics and supplements.
Designed with a self-assembling base that locks flat upon assembly, the crash-lock box reliably holds heavier items to reduce the risk of structural failure while both packaging variations are shipped flat and assemble quickly.
Postal and mailer boxes
For organisations working in the digital marketplace, bespoke postal packaging secures your merchandise during transit whilst at the same time turning the unpacking experience into an essential extension of your brand identity.
Double-sided printing changes a standard mailer box from a simple transit package into a memorable unboxing journey whilst maintaining the strength required to withstand the postal system.
Additionally, we make gusseted e-commerce boxes for items requiring extra depth or an flexible fit.
Sleeves and wallets
Enclosing a product or internal tray within a slide-on sleeve creates an sophisticated branding opportunity that preserves the original packaging, offering an highly practical and economical solution for short-term periodic lines and special limited-edition releases.
Enveloping the contents as an elegant portfolio, this wallet-style packaging opens out to display a neatly flat and polished showcase that is ideal for presenting brochures, photographs and slender merchandise.
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
Are you trying to enhance your current game? Presenting items in a custom gift box provides that high-end look buyers want without any of the packaging hassle!
Robust rigid packaging, boxes with magnetic closure and customised inserts perfectly suit Dennistoun. Adding luxury finishes such as foil blocking, embossing or soft-touch laminating will lift this range to justify an increased retail price.
Packaging design support if you do not have a designer
Extensive design assistance is fully integrated into our service, whatever the current progress point of your artwork.
Got brand guidelines and print-ready files prepared? We will jump right in to ready your designs for production!
We reconstruct supplied JPEG or alternative image logos for print use because packaging requires higher resolution than digital platforms require.
From your initial spark of ideas, our specialist team creates bespoke box structures and polished print-ready artwork, creating custom sizes when no standard box fits. Your ideas direct our approach. We set out the important technicalities, from board weight to print resolution, as we develop.
As an alternative, you can utilise our digital creation space to personalise a carton and preview your logo prior to contacting the team, or simply book an aesthetic session if you would prefer to discuss your ideas beforehand.
Custom packaging for Dennistoun’s industries
We create bespoke packaging solutions for culinary professionals, small distilleries, cosmetic brands and e-commerce businesses throughout Dennistoun.
Every industry defines distinct needs, from conformity with food hygiene standards to the careful appearance necessary for luxury packaging.
Food and drink
Scotland’s large food and drink market requires strong competitiveness, needing product packaging to ensure safety standards while attracting attention on the shelf.
Our BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level means we make food packaging under strictly regulated, traceable conditions, which retailers carefully verify before they offer any product.
Whisky and craft spirits
Our business manufactures bespoke printed bottle cartons alongside luxury presentation boxes tailored precisely for independent spirit producers and Dennistoun distilleries, incorporating sophisticated embellishments like foil decoration, tactile embossing, and luxurious soft touch lamination.
By removing minimum order restrictions, we allow a distillery to produce a small-batch run for an limited release without the pressure of committing to large volumes.
Cosmetics and beauty
We manufacture bespoke printed cartons for the cosmetics, haircare and skin care industries, elevating each design with high-quality embellishments including embossing, eye-catching foil applications and sophisticated soft-touch lamination.
Beauty vessels must shield delicate glass and delicate compacts whilst commanding interest on the boutique display, a twofold achievement achieved chiefly through the craft of the final coating.
E-commerce and subscription brands
We manufacture tailored shipping cartons, bespoke wrapping paper and customised packaging dividers for e-commerce retailers and subscription businesses.
Tailored packaging engineered to match the item precisely helps ensure secure transit whilst substantially reducing the financial burden of replacements and returned goods and returned goods.

Custom packaging Dennistoun FAQ
What counts as custom packaging?
Tailored packaging is meticulously designed to fit the specific measurements and unique requirements of your item. Every structural element, including the size, material density, configuration, and visual detailing, is carefully tailored for the contents to provide a secure fit while tastefully representing your identity. Whilst merely printing a company symbol onto a pre-made carton is personalised packaging, a genuinely custom solution is built from the basis of the merchandise itself.
Is there a minimum order?
We impose no minimum minimum order conditions, which means you can order anything from one carton to thousands. This versatility benefits solo creators and organisations trying out new merchandise. Your unit cost reduces as your order volume grows, and we always offer a documented price estimation before manufacturing.
Do you deliver to Dennistoun?
Our manufacturing facility in Irvine provides for business clients across Dennistoun. Producing our products within Scotland ensures we reduce both completion times and transport expenses for businesses in the north.
What are your lead times?
Once you have authorised your initial proof, the majority of commissions require a couple of weeks for completion, though simpler cartons are often completed more quickly. If you have a specific date to meet, please inform us during your first enquiry so we can confirm if this timescale is achievable.
Can you help if I do not have a designer?
Working often from merely a logo and an initial concept, our specialists develop your first vision into finalised graphics, a progression that features a thorough creative consultation. Alternatively, you may initiate the drafting process independently using our digital creation platform, transferring the project to our custodians whenever you feel able to do so.
Is the packaging recyclable?
Are you fully prepared for genuinely eco-friendly packaging? Every single one of our boxes is entirely recyclable and produced from certified FSC and PEFC board! We simply refuse to use plastic laminates or coatings that prevent recycling, unless food safety requires it, and we consistently discuss every option with you first.
