Why it’s wise to select custom packaging
A standard box leaves room around the product, enabling it to rattle in transit until someone packs the gaps with paper or foam to keep it in place.
Standard packaging with a side sticker is the easiest route, but it serves no specific customer.
Custom Pack Studio designs tailored packaging around your product, making sure the box, print and finish suit your brand rather than overshadowing it.
We produce custom boxes, mailer boxes, gift packaging and printed accessories for companies throughout Llandrindod Wells and the surrounding valleys, with orders varying from one sample to a pallet load delivered straight to a warehouse door.
We have no minimum order requirement for anything we produce, allowing you to avoid stock and storage costs until a product’s sales potential is established.
Tell us about your packaging requirements, and we will tailor the recommendation to suit the product itself.
What personalised packaging means
Custom packaging starts with a box specifically designed for your product, so its dimensions and printed finish exactly reflect what it contains.
Choose your measurements and make a custom-sized box that keeps the product secure, stopping it from rattling about in the unoccupied space of a generic-sized box.
Even the structure, board weight, print and finish are custom designed to suit what is being packed and how it travels!
Adding a logo to a stock box produces personalised packaging, offering a less ambitious project than completely customisable design.
With customised packaging, each panel, fold and finish can be tailored, even for one run, allowing you to create packaging that fits exactly without compromise.
Wrapping types we produce for Llandrindod Wells companies
We make a full range of packaging boxes, manufactured to bespoke sizes and printed in full colour using your artwork!
The best-suited box style and packaging type depend on what you sell and how it is handled, while our packaging experts will talk you through the choices!
Store cartons and custom branded packaging
Reverse tuck end cartons are still a well-known retail packaging choice for lightweight products, such as cosmetics and supplements, with flaps that fold neatly into both the top and bottom.
Crash lock boxes are a kind of lock box, providing a stronger cardboard design with a base that snaps flat once opened, stopping heavier products from pushing the bottom out.
Postal and electronic commerce boxes
A custom mailer box safeguards your product across the courier network while making delivery part of the brand experience and improving visibility, with printing inside and outside instead of only on the outer face.
Gusseted versions of these custom printed boxes provide additional depth, giving bulkier items room to sit securely without moving.
Gift boxes, durable boxes and gable boxes
Rigid boxes, gift boxes with magnetic closures and other branded boxes give products bought as presents the polished presentation customers expect, without customers needing to wrap them.
Gable boxes with folding carry handles suit food gifts as well as hampers.
For premium ranges, we may choose SBS board, solid bleached sulphate and a bright, food safe paperboard, over standard carton stock, while foil and soft touch lamination improve the final effect.
Develop guidance for your Llandrindod Wells business
Each order includes packaging design assistance, regardless of how far your artwork has progressed.
If you have a logo and brand guidelines, our design specialists create print-ready files and verify that colours stay accurate on board, because packaging needs greater resolution than a website image.
You don’t need design experience to develop packaging that suits your brand. Our team can begin with just a logo. Together, they create the structure and expertly crafted print ready artwork, while guiding you through each technical decision along the way.
Our online tool lets you personalise a box and preview its look before printing. Pantone colour matching keeps each repeat order consistent.
If you need packaging printed in both English and Welsh, our team considers this to be a routine artwork requirement and manages it just as we would any other language or colour change.
Custom packaging for Llandrindod Wells’s sectors
Meals and drinks
Welsh Lamb and Welsh Beef both hold Protected Geographical Indication status, while all packaging that comes into contact with meat or dairy must meet food contact requirements, irrespective of which side of the border it is manufactured.
We hold BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, meaning our food packaging is made in controlled, traceable conditions that retailers evaluate before listing a product.
Beverages and distilleries
Over the last twenty years, Wales has developed a distinctive drinks industry, encompassing distilleries in the Brecon Beacons and newer gin and whisky producers across the north.
Bottle presentation boxes must endure transit while preserving their shelf appeal, with finishes such as foil stamping and embossing providing a great deal of the impact for a limited release or seasonal gift set.
Makeup and personal care products for Llandrindod Wells
For cosmetic and skincare brands, cartons must protect fragile glass and compacts while presenting beautifully on the shelf.
We manufacture cosmetics packaging featuring soft touch lamination, foil and embossing, whilst rigid boxes complement a premium range that needs to support a higher price point.
Ecommerce and recurring labels
Packaging designed for retail display is important when a product sits in a store or marketplace fulfilment centre, yet subscription brands face an completely different challenge.
Every month, the same customer opens a nearly identical box, making a uniform finish every bit as important as the initial design.
Precisely sized e commerce packaging holds products securely during transit, helping to prevent damage, reduce claims and minimise returns.
A fitted insert or printed tissue stops the product from shifting in transit, whilst keeping the print visible as soon as the box is opened.
For a subscription brand that places repeat orders each month, keeping uniform box dimensions preserves predictable pallet capacity and warehouse racking, becoming increasingly important as volumes exceed several hundred units.
Providing Llandrindod Wells direct from our Scottish plant
Everything is produced at our Irvine facility, with UK delivery to companies in Llandrindod Wells provided as standard.
After your proof is accepted, the majority of orders arrive at a Llandrindod Wells address within two to three weeks, matching the delivery timescale for our packaging across the UK.
Custom Pack Studio belongs to KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, an well-established packaging manufacturer that has produced print and packaging since 1997, with its experienced team producing boxes on its own presses.
You get a proof and, where the format requires it, a physical sample prior to full production starts. Reorders retain the same artwork, so scaling up never requires again.
Employing one box company for packaging throughout your whole range of products makes everything simple.
You get one invoice and liaise with one contact, steering clear of multiple suppliers quoting different prices for different weeks.
Earth-friendly packaging as standard
Each box we manufacture is 100% recyclable since its board is able to be recycled.
Our board and paper originate from FSC and PEFC certified sources, whilst an audited supply chain traces each sheet back to responsibly managed forests.
We’re cutting down on single use plastic and EPS foam void fill throughout our processes because neither is easily recycled, while both cause disposal headaches after a parcel has been opened.
Where the design permits, biodegradable or paper-based protection is used instead.
There is no minimum order for Llandrindod Wells enterprises.
Throughout the industry, custom packaging often demands minimum orders of 500 or 1,000 units, meaning you must finance stock and storage before discovering whether your product will sell.
We require no minimum order whatsoever.
Smaller businesses may place an order for a single sample, a limited run for testing, or a full production run once demand has been established, with the price per unit adjusting at each quantity throughout this range.
You will consistently receive a written quotation before production begins, while the high quality materials and packaging products supplied for a run of fifty are identical to the ones provided for a run of ten thousand.
Prior to ordering in volume, request a printed sample to inspect the print, colour and fit in your hand.
