What custom packaging means
Our bespoke packaging is expertly designed to match your specific product because you keep full creative authority over dimensions, the structure, the printed artwork and the end finish.
Are you set to find out how altering a typical carton is really a entirely separate and considerably more constrained ballgame?
Our idea of a completely bespoke box is that we tailor the sizes exactly to your merchandise, choose the material thickness based on transport requirements, and place your graphics to selected surfaces.
We create the packaging design directly around the product from the very first stage.
Custom Pack Studio collaborates with food manufacturers, beauty companies, e-commerce retailers and boutique distilleries across the country.
The custom packaging we make
We make an extensive selection of bespoke packaging designs, each made to your precise dimensions and supplied with high-quality, full colour custom printing.
The ideal packaging design for your item hinges on its physical nature, selling method, and delivery journey, and our specialists will advise your selection.
Folding cartons
Retail products usually utilise crash-lock bottom and reverse tuck-end boxes as common packing formats.
Are you prepared to uncover the perfect packaging champion? A reverse tuck-end carton features smart flaps that fold inwards at both ends, making it the perfect match for holding featherweight essentials such as your preferred cosmetics and daily supplements!
Built with a self-locking base that locks flat upon opening, the crash-lock box successfully carries bulkier items to reduce the risk of structural failure while both packaging variations ship flat and build fast.

Postal and mailer boxes
For e-commerce merchants, a bespoke mailing carton safeguards your merchandise whilst in transit during transit and elevates the unboxing experience into a key element of your marketing.
Entirely designed throughout, this durable mailer box substitutes dull brown parcels to give ecommerce customers an memorable unboxing event that easily withstands the post.
We additionally produce gusseted e-commerce boxes, which neatly accommodate items that require a greater or more adaptable fit.
Sleeves and wallets
To simply add branding without updating your current packaging, you can just place a slip-on sleeve around the product or its inner tray, creating an economical solution for seasonally themed ranges and limited edition collections.
Made to wrap around your merchandise like a stylish folder, this wallet-style packaging delivers an refined and flat display that is perfectly suited for showcasing cards, prints and slender retail items.
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
Custom gift boxes provide the premium presentation retail customers expect for gift purchases whilst fully eliminating the need to package anything.
Rigid boxes, magnetic-close boxes and printed inserts are highly practical options, whilst finishes such as foil stamping, embossing and soft-touch lamination raise the presentation into premium packaging that effectively warrants a elevated price point.
