What custom packaging means
Our tailored packaging is crafted thoughtfully around your individual item, giving you the option to select the measurements, construction, print and final finish.
By contrast, adding a bespoke logo onto a standard, ready-made carton constitutes a distinct task with reduced customisation options.
Our idea of a completely bespoke box is that we customise the dimensions exactly to your merchandise, pick the material gauge based on shipping needs, and apply your graphics to the surfaces you choose.
The design of the packaging starts at the same time with the initial stage of the product design procedure.
Custom Pack Studio partners with food manufacturers, beauty companies, online retailers and boutique distilleries throughout the nation.
The custom packaging we make
We produce a wide-ranging collection of box formats to your bespoke sizes, elegantly producing your personal design in vibrant, full-colour presentation.
How does your remarkable creation actually find its way to your customers? The right packaging style always depends on those individual sales and shipping journeys, and our passionate squad is ready to help you choose the perfect match!
Folding cartons
These common reverse tuck-end and crash-lock bottom structures serve as the main packaging solutions for items on store shelves.
With closing flaps at the top and base, the subtle reverse tuck-end carton neatly cradles light items like cosmetics and supplements.
Designed with a base that automatically secures itself upon expansion, the crash-lock box successfully supports substantial items to prevent any structural failure, whilst both styles are delivered flat and can be fully constructed in mere moments.

Sleeves and wallets

Crafted to envelop the item in the manner of a folder, this wallet style box provides an elegant flat display for retail merchandise, photos and stationery.
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
When buying items meant as presents, utilising a bespoke presentation box elevates the entire appearance to match consumer requirements whilst completely eliminating the need for manual wrapping.
This tailored presentation is effortlessly achieved through well organised presentation boxes, sleek magnetic closures, and individually tailored inserts, whilst elegant embellishments such as metallic foil block detailing, textured embossing, and smooth soft touch coatings successfully elevate the final creation into luxury packaging that commands a higher market value.
Packaging design support if you do not have a designer

We explain each technical decision throughout the process, including the selection of material calibre and image definition.

Custom packaging Gullane FAQ
What counts as custom packaging?
Custom packaging fits your product sizes and requirements exactly. Dimensions, board thickness, construction, printing and finishes are adapted to your cargo to ensure a precise fit and promote your brand. Stamping a logo onto a standard carton simply creates personalised packaging. True made-to-order packaging is built around the product itself.
Is there a minimum order?
We impose zero minimum order conditions, which means you can purchase anything from one box to large quantities. This flexibility supports independent creators and organisations trying out new merchandise. Your unit cost decreases as your order volume grows, and we always provide a documented price estimation before manufacturing.
Do you deliver to Gullane?
By making our products in Irvine and distributing them straight to commercial clients throughout Gullane, we help ensure that manufacturing within Scotland effectively cuts down on both transit times and shipping expenses for regional businesses.
What are your lead times?
Production starts upon your proof approval with standard delivery taking two to three weeks, though standard cartons often arrive sooner. Specify your deadline during the initial request for immediate confirmation of availability.
Can you help if I do not have a designer?
Working frequently from merely a brand emblem and a basic idea, our specialists polish your original vision into print-ready graphics, a progression that includes a detailed creative consultation. Alternatively, you may start the drafting process independently utilising our digital creation platform, transferring the project to our custodians whenever you feel prepared to do so.
Is the packaging recyclable?
Each package consists entirely of recyclable paperboard certified by both the FSC and PEFC. We reject plastic layers and finishes that prevent recycling unless food safety necessitates their use, and we discuss all available alternatives with you first.
