What custom packaging means
Our bespoke packaging is precisely designed to house a specific item, giving you the option to pick the dimensions, the layout, the artwork and the final finish.
Are you really ready to find out how customising a regular carton is actually a entirely different and considerably more constrained ballgame?
Curious how true customisation can look? We trim every dimension to your product, pick the specific board weight for its journey, and add vibrant print onto whichever panels you choose!
We design the packaging design closely around the product from the outset.
Custom Pack Studio works with food manufacturers, cosmetics companies, internet retailers and artisan distillers throughout Erskine.
The custom packaging we make
We create an wide range of packaging styles, which are all made to suit to your custom dimensions and completely printed with your artwork.
Picking the ideal presentation for your item is a journey shaped by its unique nature, sales avenue, and ultimate delivery, a path our specialist specialists will support you through.
Folding cartons
Conventional shop packaging solutions typically employs the usual types of reverse tuck-end boxes and crash-lock bottom boxes.
With a reverse tuck end carton, the top and bottom flaps insert in opposite directions, which creates an ideal packaging option for lightweight products such as cosmetics and supplements.
Engineered with a bottom that mechanically interlocks upon opening, the crash-lock box easily supports bulkier merchandise to stop any structural collapse, whilst both packaging styles are provided in a collapsed state and can be fully assembled in mere moments.
Postal and mailer boxes
For e-commerce retailers, bespoke mailing boxes protect products during transit whilst transforming the delivery process into an extension of your brand image.
By utilising double-sided printing, a specialist mailer box lifts the normal delivery into a highly professional unboxing event for internet shoppers, whilst preserving the structural integrity required to survive the postal journey intact.
We also produce gusseted e-commerce boxes, which easily accommodate items that require a greater or more flexible fit.
Sleeves and wallets
These slip-on style sleeves enclose your products or inner tray to deliver immediate branding whilst maintaining your current packaging, providing an efficient and cost-effective solution for promotional products and short-term stock.
Styled like a folder, this wallet-style box surrounds the product to provide a streamlined, luxury presentation for small cards, prints and lighter retail goods.
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
Are you looking to elevate your present game? Sending items in a bespoke gift box delivers that luxurious look buyers crave without any of the packaging hassle!
Sturdy boxes, magnetic-lid boxes and decorated inserts are highly practical options, and finishes such as foil stamping, embossing and soft-touch lamination enhance the presentation into luxury packaging that well warrants an premium price point.
Packaging design support if you do not have a designer
Extensive design assistance remains an essential component of our service, irrespective of the present development phase of your artwork.
We prepare files to your exact brand guidelines and print suitable artwork specs.
Are you sending your logo as a JPEG or different image format? We reproduce it from scratch for production because pack shot materials demands much better resolution than a regular website would.
Starting with only a basic concept, we develop your box structure and print ready artwork. Our specialists create bespoke packaging when standard templates do not suit. To guide you, we explain every technical detail, including board weight and print resolution.
Alternatively, you could use our online creator to personalise a carton and add your own logo before contacting us, or schedule a creative meeting if you would rather discussing your ideas beforehand.
Custom packaging for Erskine’s industries
Our organisation creates bespoke packaging solutions for culinary professionals, artisan distilleries, personal care brands and e-commerce merchants throughout Erskine.
Each industry has its own unique set of requirements, ranging from strict food safety compliance to the immaculate finish required for a luxury carton!
Food and drink
To thrive in the vast and highly competitive Scottish food and drink industry, your packaging must provide product safety whilst at the same time appealing to consumers on the retail shelf.
As a business holding the prestigious BRC Global Packaging accreditation at High Hygiene level, we manufacture our food containers within highly regulated and entirely auditable settings which supermarkets review prior to approving any merchandise.
Whisky and craft spirits
Our company makes bespoke printed bottle cartons alongside luxury presentation boxes tailored particularly for independent spirit producers and Erskine distilleries, incorporating elegant embellishments like foil decoration, embossed textures, and elegant soft touch lamination.
Producers can print limited releases in limited quantities without high-volume commitments thanks to our zero minimum order policy.
Cosmetics and beauty
We produce bespoke printed cartons for the beauty, hair and skin care industries, enhancing each design with high-quality embellishments including embossing, unique foil applications and subtle soft-touch lamination.
Make-up product displays requires the precise safeguarding of sensitive glass and pressed powders while at the same time drawing attention on store shelving, a twofold responsibility largely achieved through the use of durable surface coatings.
E-commerce and subscription brands
We create bespoke corporate postal boxes, tailored wrapping paper, and tailored internal packaging solutions specifically created for digital retail merchants and recurring subscription businesses.
Bespoke packaging tailored precisely to the item helps ensure its safe passage through the mail system, which ultimately minimises the high burden of breakage and product replacements.
Tailored packaging offers the client with much more luxurious unboxing experience than a basic container.
A packaging supplier perfect for Erskine businesses
Our business manufactures the entirety of our range of products at our dedicated production facility situated within Irvine in Ayrshire.
Local enterprises throughout Erskine can depend on this solution to make sure turnaround times remain swift whilst transport expenses are kept at limited.
Delivering across Erskine and the wider UK, we guarantee a distant business receives the same swift response as a local business located just twenty minutes from our factory.
As an key arm of KennedySmith Press Ltd, Custom Pack Studio is supported by an experienced Scottish packaging manufacturer that has been specialising in high-quality print and packaging production since 1997.
Your packaging is manufactured by that specific team using their own machinery, ensuring the final printing and finishing match with the stringent criteria of a well-established producer.
You will always review a proof, together with a sample if the format needs it, before full production begins.
Sustainable packaging as standard
We craft each individual item of our boxes to be completely recyclable, a environmentally friendly quality that comes entirely from the natural composition of the board itself.
By sourcing our board and paper from FSC and PEFC certified sources, we make sure each sheet stays fully traceable through an verified pathway to sustainably managed forests.
Mailers and delivery formats use corrugated board because this highly durable material shields products and remains one of the most commonly recycled packaging options in Erskine.
We are carefully phasing out disposable plastics and EPS, the white foam used as void fill, from our operations. This is due to the fact that these materials are difficult to recycle and harm the environment when discarded.
Whenever designs allow, we promote sustainable paper or reusable protection, opting to reduce waste instead.
Order one box or ten thousand
Were you aware that bespoke packaging typically requires a minimum order of five hundred or even one thousand units?
When a company tests a new offering or details a small seasonal range, they have to pay for both goods and warehousing costs long before any sales are certain.
We take requests of any size with no minimum order. You can decide your preferred quantity, select one box or ten thousand units, and safely trial your market with very little financial risk.
Prior to starting manufacture, our specialists provide written costing verification for any order volume, whilst subsequent production runs employ the identical design assets to guarantee that expanding your operations requires no additional packaging development.

Custom packaging Erskine FAQ
What counts as custom packaging?
Tailored packaging is produced to the precise measurements and needs of your item. The size, material thickness, structure, layout, and surface treatment are all adapted to your specific product, ensuring the container fits closely and presents your corporate identity. Just placing a logo onto a pre-made carton constitutes bespoke packaging. By contrast, true custom packaging is created entirely around your product from the very beginning.
Is there a minimum order?
Definitely not! You can order one solitary box or thousands because we have no minimums on any of our formats. Isn’t that simply ideal for indie makers and anyone introducing a brand-new product? Naturally, the costing improves as your quantities grow, and you will receive an official written quote before we begin production.
Do you deliver to Erskine?
Are you ready for super-fast deliveries? We make everything in Irvine and send directly to businesses based in Erskine! By maintaining our production right here in Scotland, we greatly cut down lead times and shipping fees for regional brands!
What are your lead times?
After you have approved your initial proof, the majority of commissions require 2 to 3 weeks for finishing, though simpler cartons are often produced more quickly. If you have a specific date to meet, please tell us during your first enquiry so we can verify if this timescale is achievable.
Can you help if I do not have a designer?
Working frequently from merely an identity mark and a rudimentary concept, our specialists develop your initial vision into print-ready graphics, a progression that features a comprehensive creative consultation. Alternatively, you may start 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?
Each package consists entirely of fully recyclable paperboard verified by both the FSC and PEFC. We reject plastic layers and coatings that prevent recycling unless food safety demands their use, and we discuss all available options with you beforehand.
