What custom packaging means
Our bespoke packaging is carefully designed to house a specific item, letting you choose the size, the configuration, the artwork and the ultimate coating.
Are you really set to see how modifying a standard carton is actually a completely different and considerably more constrained ballgame?
Our interpretation of a fully bespoke box is that we adjust the dimensions carefully to your goods, choose the material thickness based on transit demands, and place your graphics to selected surfaces.
From the initial moment of the design process, the packaging is thoughtfully conceived to showcase the product.
From its design hub in Loanhead, Custom Pack Studio works with passionate food producers, boutique cosmetics brands, digital retailers and artisanal spirits makers all across the nation.

Packaging design support if you do not have a designer
Our service happily includes full design support as part of the standard service, regardless of your current artwork stage.
Should you possess established brand guidelines alongside print-ready creative files, we will closely align with your instructions to prepare everything for the manufacturing process.
When a brand mark is provided in a raster or alternative pixel format, we precisely reproduce it for production purposes because tangible packaging demands a substantially greater amount of visual clarity than a online platform requires.
