What custom packaging means
Our tailored packaging is precisely created to fit a certain item, letting you choose the measurements, the setup, the designs and the final coating.
Using a standard logo design directly to pre-fabricated packaging constitutes a different task that offers far less creative flexibility.
Our description of a fully customisable box entails that we carefully tailor the dimensions to match your specific product, determine the best board weight based on likely handling, and print print to whichever panels you want.
From the very inception of design phase, final packaging is carefully tailored to encase the product.
Custom Pack Studio works with food production companies, cosmetic companies, online retailers and craft distilleries across the whole of the nation as a whole.
The custom packaging we make
We produce an extensive range of bespoke packaging options, each made to your specific dimensions and completed with premium, full-colour custom printing.
Determining the best presentation for your merchandise is determined by its intrinsic nature, your sales methodology, and the fulfilment process, each of which our specialists will support you in selecting.
Folding cartons
For ordinary shop merchandise, reverse tuck-end cartons and crash-lock bottom cases are the conventional packaging configurations.
Created with ends that fit at opposite ends, the reverse tuck-end carton is ideally suited for lightweight merchandise such as cosmetics and health supplements.
Engineered with a base that automatically secures itself upon expansion, the crash-lock box successfully supports heavier items to prevent possible structural failure, whilst both styles are provided flat and can be fully constructed in mere moments.
Postal and mailer boxes
Tailored postal boxes secure your e-commerce products during transit and convert standard shipping into a powerful branding tool.
Who likes boring brown parcels? Double-sided printed mailer boxes offer e-commerce shoppers an amazing unboxing thrill, plus they are sturdy enough to easily survive the post!
Are you after added depth or some extra flexibility? We further make excellent gusseted e-commerce boxes tailored for those exact needs!
Sleeves and wallets
A elegant sleeve slides smoothly over a product or inside tray to quickly introduce bold branding whilst maintaining the original packaging, offering an remarkably clever and cost-effective solution for presenting exclusive seasonal lines and special-edition releases.
Created to envelop your merchandise like a sleek folder, this wallet-style packaging delivers an refined and level display that is perfectly suited for presenting cards, prints and slim retail items.
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
When items are purchased as presents, a tailor-made gift box provides the stylish packaging that customers look for whilst removing the need for any self wrapping.
Premium boxes, magnetic-close boxes and decorated inserts are extremely effective options, and finishes such as foil stamping, embossing and soft-touch lamination elevate the presentation into premium packaging that successfully supports a higher price point.
Packaging design support if you do not have a designer
We integrate design support into our service, embracing your artwork at all stages of the creation process.
Upon receipt of your established corporate guidelines and final designs, we will closely align our processes to these specifications and arrange your assets for final manufacture.
We reconstruct supplied JPEG or alternative image logos for print use because packaging demands greater resolution than digital platforms require.
Starting from a basic starting concept, our specialists refine your packaging architecture and production-ready graphics, developing bespoke structural solutions when stock containers cannot suffice. We confirm every technical specification throughout the workflow, including material thickness and image definition.
Alternatively, you may utilise our virtual design software to tailor a container and include your bespoke branding prior to contacting us, or arrange a tailored discussion should you wish to discuss your requirements beforehand.

Sustainable packaging as standard

We procure our paper and board solely from FSC and PEFC approved origins, guaranteeing that each sheet remains fully trackable via a confirmed chain of custody all the way to sustainably governed woodlands.
Frequently used for sending and delivery, robust corrugated board offers dependable protection while being one of the often recycled packaging materials in the UK.
We are systematically eliminating disposable plastics and EPS, the white foam used as packaging fill, from our operations. This is because these materials are hard to recycle and harm the environment when discarded.
Why not move to environmentally friendly, paper-based shielding alternatives and completely eliminate waste wherever your design permits?
Order one box or ten thousand
Custom packaging options generally call for a minimum manufacturing batch of either 500 and 1,000 individual units.
When a business introduces a new item or details a limited seasonal selection, they have to pay for both stock and holding costs long before any sales are guaranteed.
As we set absolutely zero minimum order requirements, you retain complete control over the quantity, whether you need one individual box or a batch run of 10,000, which means that an initial modest batch serves as a reliable method for assessing consumer demand.
We deliver formal written validation of the costs for each quantity prior to production, whilst future production runs make use of your existing designs to ensure that growing your enterprise requires no extra creative development.

Custom packaging Inverleith FAQ
What counts as custom packaging?
Custom packaging is engineered exactly to the physical measurements and technical requirements of your specific item. The dimensions, material depth, structural soundness, graphic design, and surface finish are all calibrated for your merchandise, so that the container holds snugly whilst expressing your corporate identity. Just affixing a brand mark to a standard container is personalised packaging, whereas true custom packaging is developed entirely from the product itself.
Is there a minimum order?
We do not enforce minimum quantities, which means you have the freedom to purchase a single carton or many thousands of any packaging format. This flexibility represents an ideal solution for boutique manufacturers as well as enterprises introducing or testing new merchandise on the market. Our rate structures change according to the volume requested, and we regularly provide a formal quotation for your approval prior to starting manufacture.
