Reasons pick bespoke packaging
A typical box has space around the product, enabling it to rattle during transit until someone packs the gaps with paper or foam to keep it still.
Basic packaging bearing an attached sticker is the simplest option, but it is designed for no one specifically.
Custom Pack Studio produces bespoke packaging customised for your product, making sure the box, print and finish support your brand rather than overshadowing it.
We manufacture bespoke boxes, mailer boxes, gift packaging and printed accessories for companies throughout Llanelli and the nearby valleys, with order quantities spanning one sample to a pallet load delivered directly to a warehouse door.
We have no minimum order, so stock and storage costs stay out of the picture until you know whether a product sells.
Provide your packaging specifications, and we will adapt the recommendation to the product.
What personalised packaging involves
Custom packaging begins with your product, with the box dimensions and print specification designed to suit precisely what you are packing.
You select the measurements, ensuring a custom-sized box keeps the product secure rather than allowing it to rattle within excess space created by a standard size.
The construction, board weight, print and finish are custom designed to suit the packed contents and how it travels.
Printing your logo on a stock box results in personalised packaging, needing less work than a completely customisable design.
Using customised packaging, you are able to modify each panel, fold and finish, even for a single run, producing packaging that fits without compromise.
Packaging types we make for Llanelli organisations
We manufacture a full range of packaging boxes, tailored to custom sizes and printed in full colour with your artwork.
Selecting the correct box style and packaging type hinges on your product and how it is handled. Our packaging specialists will take you through the available options.
Retail cartons and branded packaging
Reverse tuck end cartons continue to be a standard for retail packaging, well suited for lighter products such as cosmetics and supplements, with flaps that fold in at both the top and bottom.
Crash lock boxes are a sturdier form of lock box, made from cardboard with a base that snaps flat upon opening, preventing heavier products from pushing the bottom out.
Postal and internet shop packages
A custom mailer box safeguards your product throughout the courier network, while making delivery part of the brand experience and increasing visibility because it is printed on the inside and outside, not solely across the outer face.
These custom printed boxes are also available with gussets, creating extra depth so bulkier items can rest securely without moving.
Surprise packages, sturdy cases and roofed containers
Rigid boxes, gift boxes with magnetic closures and other branded boxes provide presents with polished presentation customers anticipate, without requiring them to wrap anything themselves.
Gable boxes, featuring a fold up carry handle, are suitable for food presents and hampers.
In premium ranges, we sometimes specify SBS board, solid bleached sulphate, a bright, food-safe paperboard, rather than standard carton stock. Finishes such as foil and soft touch lamination improve the overall effect.
Create assistance for your Llanelli business
We offer packaging design support with each order, regardless of your artwork’s current stage.
If you have a logo and brand guidelines, our design experts create print-ready files and check that colours are reproduced correctly on board, as packaging needs higher resolution than website imagery.
You don’t need design experience to create packaging that fits your brand. Our team can begin with only a logo. Together, they develop the structure and professionally produced print ready artwork, while supporting you through each technical decision along the way.
Our online tool lets you personalise a box and view its look and feel on screen before printing. We also provide Pantone colour matching, keeping every repeat order uniform.
Need your packaging printed in both English and Welsh? Our team manages it as a standard artwork requirement, in the same way as any other language or colour change.
Custom packaging for the Llanelli’s industries
Cuisine and libations
Welsh Lamb and Welsh Beef both have Protected Geographical Indication status, while all food packaging that comes into contact with meat or dairy must meet food contact standards, wherever it is manufactured.
Our BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level verifies that food packaging is produced within controlled and traceable processes, satisfying the checks retailers conduct prior to approving products for listing.
Tipples and distilleries
Over the past twenty years, Wales has established a distinctive drinks industry, spanning 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 much of the impact for a limited release or seasonal gift set.
Beauty treatments and skincare products
Cosmetic and skincare brands need cartons that shield delicate glass containers and compacts, whilst creating an attractive presentation on retail shelves.
We manufacture cosmetics packaging with soft touch lamination, foil and embossing, whereas rigid boxes give premium ranges the presence to support a higher price point.
E-commerce and recurring companies
Retail and display packaging is significant when a product is placed in a shop or marketplace fulfilment centre, whereas subscription brands encounter a different assessment.
Because the same customer opens an nearly identical box every month, keeping a consistent finish is just as important as the initial design.
Accurately sized e commerce packaging holds products securely during transit, helping prevent damage, reduce claims and limit returns.
A fitted insert or printed tissue holds the product securely during transit, while the design is immediately visible when the box opens.
As a subscription brand places repeat orders each month, retaining consistent box dimensions makes pallet capacity and warehouse racking easy to anticipate, an ever more important consideration once volumes exceed several hundred units.
Delivering Llanelli right from our Scotland production site
All items is made at our Irvine facility, with UK delivery to businesses in Llanelli included as standard.
After proof approval is secured, most orders reach at a Llanelli address in two to three weeks, following the same timetable as the rest of our packaging across the UK.
Custom Pack Studio belongs to KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, an well-established packaging manufacturer that has been producing print and packaging since 1997, with its experienced team making boxes on its own presses.
You will check a proof and, when required by the format, a physical sample before full production starts. Reorders use the same artwork, so scaling up never means starting from scratch!
Using a single box company for packaging across your whole product range makes the process simple.
It all flows through one invoice and one point of contact, sparing you the frustration of pursuing several suppliers quoting varying prices for different weeks.
Planet-friendly packaging as common practice
Each box we manufacture is 100% recyclable because its board is able to be recycled.
We source our board and paper from FSC and PEFC certified suppliers, with every sheet tracked through an audited chain of custody to responsibly managed forests.
We’re reducing single use plastic and EPS foam void fill across our processes because neither is easily recycled, while both cause disposal headaches after a parcel has been opened.
Where the design allows, biodegradable or paper-based protective materials are used in their place.
No minimum quantity for Llanelli organisations.
Across the wider industry, custom packaging often requires minimum orders of 500 or 1,000 units, leaving you to finance stock and storage before knowing whether a product will sell.
We have no minimum order whatsoever.
Small firms are able to order one sample, a limited trial run, or a complete production batch after proving demand, with per unit pricing adjusted for each order quantity across the range.
You will consistently receive a written quote prior to production commencing, while the high quality materials and packaging products supplied for a run of fifty are identical to those supplied for a run of ten thousand.
Before ordering in volume, request a printed sample to check the print, colour and fit in your hand.

Can you possibly send samples of your packaging solutions products before I decide to place an order?
Yes. The sample is printed and finished to production standards, allowing you to confirm that the colours meet your brief and the board feels right before approving a bulk order.
