Launching a product from Kilrea already entails many factors, encompassing stock, shipping and even the label affixed to its box.
Custom Pack Studio designs and prints custom-made packaging in our factory in Irvine, UK. Orders shipped to Kilrea addresses use the same production line and courier network as all other UK orders.
Every box is made specifically for your product, without a minimum order requirement, while design support is provided from the first sketch.
Obtaining personalised packaging delivered into Kilrea
Kilrea lies just a short crossing from our factory in Irvine.
We manufacture all products ourselves, giving us direct control over how and when your custom packaging order is dispatched, without a reseller involved.
Orders destined for Northern Ireland use the same nationwide courier network as all other deliveries we dispatch, with a timeframe of between two and three weeks from proof approval to delivery to your door.
As a packaging supplier, we prefer to provide a practical delivery timeframe from the outset instead of commit to prompt delivery and not meet it.
Smaller orders are delivered in a regular tracked parcel.
Bulk runs are combined into fewer bigger consignments, reducing handling and keeping costs down for high-volume Kilrea customers.
Boxes and packaging we create
Most Kilrea orders come in a few formats, with each format customised to your product rather than being selected off the shelf.
Our printing services consist of full colour litho or digital printing, chosen to match the specified run size.
Courier and post boxes for internet orders
A bespoke mailer box folds flat and secures itself without tape. It holds the product stable throughout a courier network that already crosses the Irish Sea every working day.
Print the outside, so customers notice the parcel before they open it. Print the interior too, making unboxing part of the experience once the tape is taken off.
We can assist you to create packaging that leaves an immediate impression on delivery.
Shop cartons and corrugated shipping cartons
Reverse tuck end cartons are well suited for lighter retail products, including cosmetics and supplements, while a crash lock base supports heavier items without the bottom giving way.
Corrugated board provides protective packaging for any item stacked on a pallet, handled repeatedly, or designed for a shelf in Kilrea.
Its purpose is to protect your products, rather than merely take up space in a van.

Sleeves, presentation cases and wallets
A sliding sleeve offers branding for a product or inner tray without requiring a completely new box, making it ideal for short runs and seasonal ranges.
Gift boxes and wallets can provide the final touch to an order’s packaging supplies.
A wallet style box encloses cards, prints or slim products in a flat format. It provides a neat premium finish without the bulkiness of a full carton.
There is no minimum order, regardless of the size of your Kilrea company.
You might be asking yourself whether you need to order a thousand boxes to get started. After all, minimum orders of 500 or 1,000 units are usual across the industry.
For a smaller Kilrea brand, that figure alone may exclude bespoke packaging before it merits serious consideration.
That is not how we operate.
Order a single box to check the print before committing, or choose fifty for a market stall or soft launch. However large or small your run, you will get an affordable price.
Scale your output to the required quantity a retailer requires once it signs you up.
Whatever the order size, you get the same print quality and finish, all produced on the same production line. Great packaging should never be determined by the quantity you order!

Charges that scale with volume, nothing else.
Costs are determined by the quantity ordered, and every quotation is confirmed in writing prior to manufacturing commencing.
The specified amount becomes your invoice, while repeat orders keep the existing setup and artwork, allowing you to keep your costs lower as your business expands.
Graphic guidance if you lack an on-site designer
You don’t need an in-house designer to order from us. Design support is included with each order, irrespective of your artwork’s present stage.
Provide us with your final artwork, print-ready, and we’ll get it ready for the press, reviewing colours and resolution directly on the printed board itself.
Simply submit your logo and a preliminary concept, and our team will create the tailored packaging design and produce the print ready files in collaboration with you.
Our online design tool produces your box in 3D, enabling you to customise it and preview it before printing begins.
You can also arrange a design consultation if you would prefer to discuss the options with someone rather than view them on screen.
Kilrea firm types that we offer packing services for
Food and drink packaging is given especially close attention, making it an area in which we specialise.
We maintain BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, which ensures cartons and food contact packaging for Northern Ireland producers are produced under controlled, traceable conditions.
It is the kind of certification a retailer needs before agreeing to list a product.
Online retailers based in Kilrea deliver nationwide, while a mailer box designed for the product helps limit damage and returns. It also gives customers a more satisfying experience than opening a plain parcel.
Gift and hamper brands, subscription box providers and independent beauty makers make up the rest, with each requiring packaging tailored to their individual needs.
Foil stamping gives a luxurious finish to a gift box, whereas a fitted insert keeps a bottle secure throughout transit.
We develop bespoke solutions that fit your product exactly and leave a lasting impression.
Sustainable materials endorsed by legitimate certification
Every box we manufacture is 100% recyclable, using quality board and paper sourced via FSC and PEFC certified supply chains. The materials can be traced via audited processes to responsibly managed forests.
We refrain from using plastic coatings or laminates that prevent box recycling unless food safety makes them necessary. If that happens, we make this clear and do not disguise the reason.
Producing everything in our factory in Scotland also helps to reduce our delivery footprint, in comparison with importing environmentally friendly materials or anything else from overseas.
