What custom packaging means
Our bespoke packaging is produced thoughtfully around your particular item, so you can choose the measurements, structure, printing and overall finish.
Are you prepared to find out how altering a typical carton is actually a completely separate and far more restricted ballgame?
Wondering how true customisation looks like? We cut every dimension to your product, choose the specific board weight for its journey, and add stunning print onto whichever panels you choose!
Firstly, we carefully draw up the packaging around the product from the very start of the process.
Custom Pack Studio works with manufacturers of food products, cosmetics businesses, e-commerce retailers and boutique distilleries throughout the nation.
The custom packaging we make
We produce a wide-ranging range of box styles, each adapted to custom dimensions and entirely printed with your unique branding artwork.
The ideal packaging design for your item depends on its physical nature, sales approach, and delivery journey, and our specialists will guide your selection.
Folding cartons
Such typical reverse tuck-end and crash-lock bottom structures act as the standard packaging solutions for items on shop shelves.
The reverse tuck-end carton has top and bottom closure flaps folding in opposite directions, making it well suited for lightweight merchandise such as beauty products and supplements.
Designed with a self-locking base that locks flat upon expansion, the crash-lock box successfully holds heavier items to reduce the risk of structural failure while both packaging variations go flat and construct rapidly.
Postal and mailer boxes
For e-commerce merchants, a tailored mailing carton safeguards your merchandise whilst undergoing transit and enhances the unboxing experience into a key element of your marketing.
With bespoke printing on all surfaces, these mailer boxes elevate the standard digital retail transaction into a high-end tactile event whilst maintaining the structural integrity required to endure the rigours of transit.
We additionally produce gusseted ecommerce boxes, offering the perfect, ample fit for items requiring a greater or more flexible fit.
Sleeves and wallets
A sleek sleeve glides effortlessly over a product or inner insert to quickly introduce vibrant branding whilst maintaining the original packaging, delivering an incredibly smart and affordable solution for displaying exclusive seasonal lines and limited-run releases.
Is your packaging ready for a lift? This impressive wallet-style box wraps your items in the manner of a sleek folder to produce an high-end, flat display that is absolutely perfect for prints, cards and slim retail products!
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
To raise items acquired as presents, utilising bespoke gift packaging delivers the high-end finish your customers expects while eliminating the stress of wrapping.
Rigid boxes, magnetic closure boxes and decorated inserts are very strong options, while finishes such as foil stamping, embossing and soft-touch lamination elevate the presentation into luxury packaging that effectively justifies a premium price point.
Packaging design support if you do not have a designer
Comprehensive design support is completely built in into our service, no matter the current development phase of your artwork.
Should you already have existing brand guidelines alongside print-ready creative files, we will closely align with your instructions to get ready everything for the manufacturing process.
Websites are highly flexible, yet printed packaging calls for complete clarity. As a result, every logo supplied as a JPEG or alternative image file must be thoroughly rebuilt before printing.
Are you beginning with just a hint of an inspiration? Our brilliant crew will map out the full packaging template with your production-ready graphics, further creating a bespoke layout when off-the-shelf containers simply will not do! We eagerly lead you through every single technical decision from material density to final image quality as your original concept comes to life.
As an alternative, you can use our digital creation space to customise a carton and visualise your logo prior to getting in touch with the team, or just book an aesthetic session if you would prefer to discuss your ideas beforehand.

Order one box or ten thousand
Usually, bespoke packaging needs a minimum order amount of either around five hundred or one thousand items.
When companies trial a recent item or launch a limited promotional range, they may risk purchasing inventory and storage space prior to validating consumer demand.
