What custom packaging means
Our bespoke packaging is carefully engineered to match your specific product because you retain total creative authority over the dimensions, the structural design, the printed artwork and the finish.
Using a standard logo design directly onto pre-fabricated packaging is a separate task that offers far less creative flexibility.
Our understanding of a fully adaptable box means that we carefully tailor the dimensions to suit your individual product, select the best board weight based on anticipated handling, and add print to whichever panels you require.
From the initial stages of design, the packaging is beautifully envisioned to showcase the product.
Custom Pack Studio works with manufacturers of food products, cosmetics businesses, online retailers and craft distilleries across the country.
The custom packaging we make
We produce varied box styles to your format specifications. Each order features tailored dimensions and vibrant full colour printing of your distinctive branding.
Determining the most suitable template for your merchandise relies entirely upon its inherent nature, your sales channels, and the logistics of final delivery, all of which our specialists will guide you through selecting.
Folding cartons
For standard retail merchandise, reverse tuck-end cartons and crash-lock bottom cases represent the standard packaging set-ups.
Designed with upper and lower closure flaps that fit in reverse directions, the reverse tuck-end carton offers a suitable packaging solution for lightweight products, such as cosmetics and dietary supplements.
Ready for some packaging magic? Those clever crash-lock boxes feature a secure base that clicks snugly into place the very second you unfold them! This robust design easily supports your bulkiest items without any risk of the bottom collapsing. Even better, both styles are shipped completely flat and take mere moments to build!
Postal and mailer boxes
For organisations operating in the digital marketplace, bespoke postal packaging safeguards your merchandise during transit whilst simultaneously elevating the unpacking experience into an integral extension of your brand identity.
Double-sided printing turns a standard mailer box from a ordinary transit package into a lasting unboxing journey whilst maintaining the strength required to withstand the postal system.
Additionally, we make gusseted e-commerce boxes for items requiring additional depth or an flexible fit.
Sleeves and wallets
Enclosing a product or internal tray within a slide-on sleeve offers an elegant branding opportunity that preserves the original packaging, providing an highly useful and economical solution for short-term limited lines and exclusive limited-edition releases.
Created like a folder, this folder-style box encloses the product to offer a flat, high-quality presentation for card items, prints and lighter retail goods.
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
When buying items meant as presents, utilising a tailored presentation box enhances the general aesthetic to satisfy consumer expectations whilst entirely eliminating the need for manual wrapping.
This tailored presentation is effortlessly achieved through well organised presentation boxes, smart magnetic closures, and individually tailored inserts, whilst elegant embellishments such as metallic foil block detailing, textured embossing, and velvety soft touch coatings successfully elevate the final creation into luxury packaging that holds a higher market value.
Packaging design support if you do not have a designer
Our service offers thorough design support at all stages of your artwork development.
Upon receipt of your established corporate guidelines and approved designs, we will closely adapt our processes to these specifications and ready your assets for ultimate manufacture.
As packaging requires significantly greater resolution than digital display , we must rebuild any supplied JPEG or other image file format for print use.
Starting with only simply a rudimentary concept, our specialists create the packaging configuration and press-ready graphics on your behalf, while preparing a bespoke blueprint when conventional containers are unsuitable. We explain each technical decision throughout the process, including the selection of material calibre and image definition.
Why not use our easy-to-use online design tool to set up a box and add your branding today, or simply schedule a friendly design consultation if you would prefer to go over it first?
Custom packaging for Dunoon’s industries
Across Dunoon, we produce exceptional packaging for food and drink producers, distilleries, cosmetics brands and e-commerce sellers.
Every industry has its own individual set of standards, ranging from stringent food safety compliance to the perfect finish required for a luxury carton!
Food and drink
The food and drink industry within Scotland is both broad and extremely competitive, required that product packaging guarantees total safety upon contact whilst at the same time attracting focus on the retail shelf.
Did you realise we hold BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level? Our packaging is produced under strictly controlled, auditable conditions that retailers check before listing any product!
Whisky and craft spirits
We create bespoke printed bottle cartons and presentation boxes for specialist spirits producers and whisky distilleries, including premium finishes like metallic foiling, custom embossing and tactile soft-touch lamination.
This absence of a minimum order threshold allows a distillery to arrange a limited print run for small-batch releases without the obligation of buying excessive quantities.
Cosmetics and beauty
Seeking showstopping packaging? We make printed cartons for skincare, haircare and beauty brands, featuring eye-catching soft-touch lamination, foil and embossing!
Make-up presentation of beauty products calls for the careful safeguarding of sensitive glass and pressed powders while also attracting attention on shop shelves, a double responsibility primarily achieved through the use of high-quality surface coatings.
E-commerce and subscription brands
Want to amaze your clients? We make branded mailer boxes, printed tissue and fitted inserts for e-commerce sellers and subscription brands!
Custom packaging designed to accommodate the item exactly ensures secure transit whilst significantly reducing the financial burden of replacements and returned goods and returns.
Custom packaging provides the client with considerably more high-end unboxing experience than a plain container.
A packaging supplier perfect for Dunoon businesses
Each and every piece is made by our staff at our own work place based in Irvine, within the area of Ayrshire.
Are you a company based in Dunoon looking to fast-track your arrivals and cut transport costs?
Serving across Dunoon and the greater UK, we ensure a remote business receives the very same fast turnaround as a neighbour located just twenty minutes from our factory.
As an key division of KennedySmith Press Ltd, Custom Pack Studio is underpinned by an well-established Scottish packaging manufacturer that has been working in high-quality print and packaging production since 1997.
Our specialist team manufactures your boxes on their own presses to help ensure that the print and finish meet the standards of an experienced producer.
We provide a computerised layout and a tangible prototype for validation before commencing complete production.
Sustainable packaging as standard
Each of the produced cartons is fully recyclable because the inherent properties of the board itself provide this sustainable quality.
By obtaining our paper and board solely from FSC and PEFC certified woodlands, we ensure a transparent journey where every single sheet can be reviewed and traced back to its responsible origins.
Are you ready to discover the definitive packaging powerhouse? Remarkably durable and safe, corrugated board emerges as a leading champion for UK recycling in both mailing and shipping operations!
We remove single-use plastic and EPS from our day-to-day operations due to their recycling challenges and adverse environmental impact.
When the project layout allows, our team recommends using recyclable paper or sustainable packaging materials whilst actively precluding extra surplus.
Order one box or ten thousand
Custom packaging generally requires a minimum commitment of 500 or 1,000 items.
Trialling a new product or producing limited seasonal runs forces businesses to cover stock and storage before making any sales.
Because we set absolutely no minimum order requirements, you maintain complete control over the quantity, whether you need one individual box or a production run of ten thousand, which means that an initial limited batch works as a very safe method for evaluating consumer demand.
We regularly confirm costs in writing for every quantity before production begins. Because repeat orders utilise the same artwork, increasing volume not ever requires redesigning the packaging.
