What custom packaging means
We craft bespoke packaging designed completely around your particular product by providing you absolute control over the measurements, style, printing and finishing!
Tailoring a ready-made carton with a stamped brand mark poses a sharply contrasting and far more restricted undertaking.
Wondering what true customisation can look? We trim every dimension to your product, pick the specific board weight for its journey, and add striking print onto whichever panels you choose!
We create the packaging design carefully around the product from the very first stage.
Custom Pack Studio supports food manufacturers, cosmetics companies, internet retailers and artisan distillers throughout Dundonald.
The custom packaging we make
We manufacture varied box styles to your layout specifications. Every order comes with custom sizing and bold full colour printing of your unique branding.
Determining the optimal presentation for your merchandise is determined by its inherent nature, your sales methodology, and the fulfilment process, each of which our specialists will support you in selecting.
Folding cartons
Retail goods typically utilise crash-lock bottom and reverse tuck-end boxes as common packing formats.
With a reverse tuck end carton, the upper and lower flaps insert in opposite directions, which offers an ideal packaging option for light products such as cosmetics and supplements.
First, simply open the crash-lock box so the robust base locks into place. This reliable design readily takes larger products, whilst both formats come flat and build in moments.
Postal and mailer boxes
Bespoke mailing boxes secure your e-commerce products during transit and transform standard shipping into a effective promotional tool.
Who needs plain brown parcels? Double-sided printed mailer boxes offer e-commerce shoppers an incredible unboxing thrill, plus they are strong enough to readily survive the post!
We additionally make gusseted ecommerce boxes, giving the perfect, ample hold for products requiring a deeper or adjustable fit.
Sleeves and wallets
To readily add branding without replacing your current packaging, you can simply add a slide-on sleeve around the product or its inner tray, creating an affordable solution for seasonally themed ranges and exclusive collections.
Ready to elevate your packaging game? This remarkable wallet-style box packages your items as a sleek folder to create an ultra-premium, flat display that is completely perfect for prints, cards and slim retail products!
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
When purchasing items meant as tokens, using a tailored presentation box elevates the entire appearance to match consumer requirements whilst fully eliminating the need for manual wrapping.
First, pick rigid boxes, magnetic-close boxes and printed inserts, then apply finishes like foil stamping, embossing and soft-touch lamination to produce premium packaging that readily warrants a higher price point.
Packaging design support if you do not have a designer
Comprehensive design assistance remains an integral component of our support, regardless of the ongoing progress stage of your artwork.
Once you send us with your existing brand guidelines and print-ready artwork, we will carefully follow these specifications to prepare your final files for the manufacturing process.
When a brand mark is sent in a JPEG or alternative pixel format, we precisely recreate it for production requirements because printed packaging demands a significantly greater level of visual clarity than a virtual platform needs.
Starting with only a rough concept, we develop your box structure and print-ready artwork. Our specialists create bespoke packaging when standard templates do not suit. To support you, we explain every technical detail, including board weight and print resolution.
Alternatively, you may make use of our design software to tailor a packaging solution and include your bespoke corporate identity prior to making contact, or alternatively arrange a creative appointment should you wish to talk through your requirements beforehand.
