custom packaging for small business uk

You’ve seen the unboxing videos. A small candle brand, a skincare startup, a jewellery maker running from a spare room, and their packaging is better than most major retailers manage.

At Custom Pack Studio, these custom boxes are easier to obtain than you’d expect. With absolutely no minimum order quantities, you can get beautiful boxes that match your business needs.

From mailer boxes, product boxes, gift boxes, and more, our team designs, prints, and supplies custom packaging boxes that will take your business to the next level.

Why branded packaging is worth it for small businesses

For a small business without a large advertising budget, every order that leaves your door is a marketing moment.

A customer who opens a printed mailer and lifts out a tissue-wrapped product is having an experience that converts into repeat purchases and word-of-mouth.

Ready-made packaging does the basic job. But branded packaging turns that same delivery into a memorable unboxing experience, the kind customers photograph, share online, and come back to.

Your packaging also becomes a showcase for what your business stands for.

A box in your brand colour, with your logo and product information printed directly onto the board, leaves a lasting impression that a plain brown carton never would.

For in-store retail and online ecommerce shops, your packaging takes your product right into your customer’s hands.

Custom packaging options for UK small businesses

We supply a range of custom packaging products for small businesses.

With a range of box styles to choose from, all our products are fully customisable in both dimensions and artwork.

Mailer boxes for e-commerce

The mailer box is the standard DTC format for e-commerce brands.

Self-locking, no tape required, and printable across both the exterior and interior surfaces, a custom printed mailer turns a routine parcel into a branded delivery.

For subscription box businesses, the mailer is the first thing a customer handles on delivery day.

We can customise both outer and inner surfaces, giving you two distinct brand moments in a single format.

Product boxes and retail packaging

For brands supplying in-store retailers or selling through markets and pop-ups, a printed product box carries your brand at the point of sale.

Custom printed boxes in bespoke sizes fit your product exactly, with your artwork printed across all exterior panels.

Product packaging for food, cosmetic, health, and gifting brands is produced across the same range, with board weights and formats matched to the product and channel.

Custom Printed Packaging UK

Sleeve packaging

Sometimes all you need is a simple sleeve that slides on and you can send it off.

For food businesses in ready meals, confectionery, or takeaway, a printed sleeve adds a professional finish that makes an impression the moment it arrives with your customer.

Our facility holds BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level for safe handling.

Sleeve Packaging

Custom printed packaging for e-commerce brands

The e-commerce unboxing moment is where custom printed packaging pays back its cost most clearly.

A parcel that arrives looking considered rather than improvised reinforces the brand decision the customer just made.

For small UK e-commerce brands, each delivery is a customer experience that either builds or wastes brand equity.

Our printing service produces full colour custom printed cardboard box packaging with your brand, artwork, and product information printed directly onto the board.

Design your personalised custom packaging using our 3D design tool, or bring your brand guidelines to our design experts and we’ll produce print-ready artwork for your approval.

Eco packaging options for small businesses

If you are looking for an eco-friendly packaging supplier, Custom Pack Studio is the team for you.

All the packaging we supply is 100% recyclable to promote a circular economy.

Clearly communicate your brand’s values and ecofriendly policies by moving away from plastic mailing bags with our design team.

Plus, with a box that fits your product’s dimensions precisely (rather than generic sizing), you can reduce waste product and lower your carbon footprint from the onset.

Fast printed custom packaging for time-sensitive launches

For small businesses working toward a product launch, a market date, or a seasonal campaign, lead times matter.

We work directly with you, the business owner, to produce quality packaging at a timeframes that suit.

If you have a hard deadline, tell us when you get in touch, and we’ll confirm whether we can work to it.

No minimum order: custom packaging solutions from a single unit

Small businesses need flexibility. And that’s exactly what we offer with our no minimum order quantity policy.

Whether you are a small business testing a new product, launching a seasonal line, or managing cash flow carefully, you have full control of how much you want to order and when.

When you are ready to scale-up, we have the facilities to make sure that happens.

Harnessed by the power of KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, a UK packaging box company with over 25 years of production experience, we can get your small business wherever it goes.
