What custom packaging means
We create tailored packaging engineered completely around your particular product by giving you complete control over the size, look, print and finish!
Applying a standard logo design directly onto pre-fabricated packaging represents a different task that allows far less creative flexibility.
Our fully bespoke packaging ensures you receive accurate dimensions appropriate for your item, packaging strength matched to your shipping requirements, and custom print added to your chosen panels.
We develop the packaging directly around the product from the outset.
Custom Pack Studio collaborates with food manufacturers, cosmetic organisations, online retailers and artisanal distilleries across the whole of the entire nation.
The custom packaging we make
We craft a diverse collection of box formats to your bespoke sizes, stylishly printing your personal design in bold, full-colour printing.
Choosing the best-fitting template for your merchandise relies entirely upon its inherent nature, your sales channels, and the logistics of final delivery, all of which our specialists will help you with selecting.
Folding cartons
Standard retail packaging solutions routinely employs the common types of reverse tuck-end boxes and crash-lock bottom boxes.
With closing flaps at the top and base, the soft reverse tuck-end carton attractively holds more lightweight items like cosmetics and supplements.
Ready for some packaging magic? Such smart crash-lock boxes feature a smart base that snaps firmly into place the exact second you unfold them! This sturdy design effortlessly supports your heaviest items without any risk of the bottom collapsing. Even better, both styles are shipped completely flat and take only a few moments to build!
Postal and mailer boxes
For online merchants, a bespoke mailing carton safeguards your merchandise whilst moving through transit and elevates the unboxing experience into a key element of your marketing.
By featuring bespoke artwork on all surfaces, these durable postal cartons transform routine deliveries into engaging tactile stories that far surpass the dull familiarity of traditional packaging.
Do you need more depth or a bit more flexibility? We further create fantastic gusseted e-commerce boxes made for those requirements!
Sleeves and wallets
To easily add branding without replacing your current packaging, you can easily place a slide-on sleeve around the product or its inner tray, creating an affordable solution for holiday ranges and limited edition collections.
Surrounding the contents like an elegant portfolio, this wallet-style packaging unfolds to reveal a neatly flat and stylish showcase that is well suited for presenting brochures, photographs and slender merchandise.
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
When a product is purchased as a present, a bespoke gift box provides the exquisite finish that recipients expect while completely saving them the chore of gift wrapping.
This bespoke presentation is effortlessly achieved through well organised presentation boxes, sleek magnetic closures, and individually tailored inserts, whilst refined 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 more prestigious market value.
Packaging design support if you do not have a designer
Thorough design assistance is fully integrated into our service, whatever the existing progress point of your artwork.
Should you have defined brand guidelines alongside print-ready creative files, we will carefully align with your instructions to prepare everything for the manufacturing process.
Are you supplying your logo as a JPEG or alternative image format? We recreate it from scratch for printing because packaging artwork requires much sharper resolution than a regular website can.
Starting from just a rough concept, we create your box structure and print-ready artwork. Our specialists design bespoke packaging when standard templates do not work. To support you, we cover every technical detail, including board weight and print resolution.
Why not make use of our easy-to-use online design tool to configure a box and include your branding today, or simply schedule a no-obligation design consultation if you would prefer to go over it first?

Sustainable packaging as standard
Each unit we produce is fully recycleable owing to the inherent qualities of the cardboard material.
By procuring our board and paper from FSC and PEFC certified sources, we ensure each sheet stays fully traceable through an verified pathway to sustainably managed forests.
Frequently used for posting and dispatch, durable corrugated board delivers reliable protection while staying one of the most frequently recycled packaging materials in the UK.
Our organisation is currently removing single-use plastic and EPS, which is the expanded polystyrene white foam frequently utilised for packaging void fill, throughout our internal procedures due to the major challenges these materials create for recycling and the associated environmental damage they cause when discarded.
When the specific scheme permits, we recommend using recyclable or paper-based, eco-friendly safeguarding materials whilst pre-emptively eliminating surplus from our planning process.of_thought_

Custom packaging Kingswells FAQ
What counts as custom packaging?
Custom packaging fits your product measurements and specifications exactly. Dimensions, board thickness, construction, printing and finishes are adapted to your cargo to ensure a precise fit and support your brand. Applying a logo onto a standard carton merely creates branded packaging. True made-to-order packaging is built around the product itself.
Is there a minimum order?
We impose no minimum limits on any format, meaning you are welcome to acquire a single carton or large quantities. That freedom is perfect for independent creators and those embarking on initial product trials. Our rates fall as your order volume expands, with every project receiving a formal quotation prior to manufacturing.
Do you deliver to Kingswells?
Our manufacturing facility in Irvine supplies business clients across Kingswells. Creating our products within Scotland ensures we minimise both turnaround times and transport expenses for northern enterprises.
What are your lead times?
Once you have greenlighted the design, we usually require 2 to 3 weeks to produce your packaging, while simpler boxes can often be produced more swiftly. Should you have a key date in mind, please share it during your initial enquiry so we can promptly determine if we can make it happen.
Can you help if I do not have a designer?
We regularly commence our design journey with simply a brand emblem and a brief concept, growing your first thoughts into complete production-ready files. A collaborative design consultation is integrated into this service to guide your ideas. As an alternative, you can start the process alone by utilising our digital design platform before handing the reins to our specialists whenever you feel prepared.
Is the packaging recyclable?
Are you ready for really green packaging? Every single one of our boxes is entirely recyclable and made from certified FSC and PEFC board! We simply decline to use plastic laminates or coatings that prevent recycling, unless food safety requires it, and we always discuss every option with you first.
