What custom packaging means
Our bespoke packaging is crafted carefully around your individual item, allowing you to choose the dimensions, structure, print and end finish.
Tailoring a pre-made carton with a embossed brand mark creates a different and much more limited undertaking.
By selecting our bespoke packaging, you will be provided with customised casing dimensions tailored to your item, relevant board durability selected for its practical journey, and personalised printing across your preferred surfaces.
From the earliest moment of the design process, the packaging is carefully conceived to complement the product.
We really love working with food producers, cosmetics brands, online sellers and craft spirits makers all over the nation!
The custom packaging we make
We make a diverse variety of box styles, each adapted to custom dimensions and entirely printed with your individual branding artwork.
Choosing the best-fitting template for your merchandise rests solely 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
Shop goods typically utilise crash-lock bottom and reverse tuck-end boxes as typical packing formats.
The reverse tuck-end carton features top and bottom closure flaps facing in opposite directions, which makes it suitable for lightweight merchandise such as cosmetics and dietary supplements.
Designed with a base that automatically and securely secures itself upon expansion, the crash-lock box successfully supports heavier items to prevent possible structural failure, whilst both styles are delivered flat and can be fully constructed in mere moments.
Postal and mailer boxes
Are you currently selling through your online store? An bespoke mailer box will keep safe your product across the courier network while transforming delivery into a thrilling brand experience!
Double-sided printing transforms a standard mailer box from a plain transit package into a memorable unboxing journey while maintaining the robustness required to withstand the postal system.
Furthermore, we produce expandable e-commerce cartons designed specifically for products demanding more depth or flexible packaging.
Sleeves and wallets
Enclosing a product or internal tray within a slide-on sleeve creates an stylish branding opportunity that keeps the original packaging, providing an highly practical and affordable solution for temporary periodic lines and exclusive limited-edition releases.
Created to surround the item in the manner of a folder, this wallet style box provides an stylish flat display for shop goods, images and stationery.
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
When a product is purchased as a surprise, a tailored gift box offers the exquisite packaging that recipients look for while fully removing them the burden of wrapping.
Premium boxes, magnetic-close boxes and decorated inserts are extremely strong options, whilst finishes such as foil stamping, embossing and soft-touch lamination raise the presentation into luxury packaging that well supports an higher price point.
Packaging design support if you do not have a designer
We incorporate design support into our service, welcoming your artwork at every stage of the creation process.
Got brand guidelines and print-ready files set to go? We will jump right in to prepare your designs for the final manufacturing stage!
We recreate supplied JPEG or alternative image logos for production printing because packaging needs greater resolution than digital platforms require.
Starting with only a basic concept, we develop your box structure and print ready artwork. Our specialists design bespoke packaging when standard templates do not fit. To support you, we set out every technical detail, including board weight and print resolution.
Alternatively, you can utilise our digital creation space to personalise a carton and see your logo prior to getting in touch with the team, or just arrange an aesthetic session if you would prefer to discuss your ideas beforehand.

What counts as custom packaging?
Tailored packaging aligns with your product dimensions and requirements exactly. Dimensions, board thickness, construction, printing and finishes are designed to your cargo to guarantee a precise fit and promote your brand. Adding a logo onto a standard carton simply creates branded packaging. True made-to-order packaging is built around the product itself.
Is there a minimum order?
Whether you need a one container or many thousands, we handle all orders because we apply no minimum volume requirements across any of our packaging styles. This flexible approach is particularly structured to support boutique creators as well as businesses launching or exploring a new market offering. Our pricing structures typically favour larger volumes, and we consistently provide a detailed written quotation prior to manufacturing.
