Custom Packaging Newington

Customised packaging manufactured to the specific measurements of the item protects it during transportation, doing away with the requirement for more cushioning material. By dictating the measurements, arrangement, design and tactile coating of each carton, you make sure your packaging is meticulously tailored to each of your particular merchandise and your corporate identity. We apply no minimum order limits, enabling you to order one sample or buy at volume.

Custom Packaging Newington

What custom packaging means

We craft bespoke packaging engineered entirely around your specific product by offering you complete control over the measurements, design, print and finishing!

Are you all prepared to find out how altering a typical carton is actually a completely different and considerably more restricted ballgame?

Our interpretation of a fully customisable box means the dimensions are tailored specifically to your product, the board weight is selected according to its actual journey, and the print neatly wraps around your chosen panels.

From the initial moment of the design process, the packaging is thoughtfully envisioned to showcase the product.

Custom Pack Studio collaborates with food producers, beauty companies, internet retailers and boutique distilleries across the country.

The custom packaging we make

We produce an wide range of bespoke packaging styles, each made to your exact dimensions and completed with high-quality, full colour custom printing.

Choosing the best presentation for your item is a task shaped by its specific nature, sales avenue, and final delivery, a path our specialist specialists will support you through.

Folding cartons

For regular shop merchandise, reverse tuck-end cartons and crash-lock bottom cases represent the traditional packaging set-ups.

The reverse tuck end carton includes top and bottom closure flaps bending in opposite directions, making it well suited for lightweight merchandise such as beauty products and dietary supplements.

Ready for some packaging magic? Such impressive crash-lock boxes feature a secure base that locks firmly into place the very second you unfold them! This robust design effortlessly supports your heaviest items without any risk of the bottom collapsing. Even better, both styles ship completely flat and take mere moments to build!

Postal and mailer boxes

Are you selling online? An bespoke mailer box will safeguard your product throughout the courier network while changing delivery into a exciting brand experience!

By displaying bespoke artwork on all surfaces, these durable postal cartons transform routine deliveries into compelling tactile stories that greatly exceed the plainness of traditional packaging.

Are you after added depth or some extra flexibility? We additionally make fantastic gusseted e-commerce boxes tailored for those requirements!

Sleeves and wallets

To readily add branding without changing your current packaging, you can just add a over-sleeve sleeve around the product or its inner tray, creating an affordable solution for seasonally themed ranges and special edition collections.

Designed to encase the item in the manner of a folder, this wallet style box provides an elegant flat display for retail merchandise, photographs and paper goods.

Gift boxes and presentation packaging

Are you trying to enhance your present game? Presenting items in a tailored gift box offers that premium look buyers crave without any of the gift-wrapping fuss!

Robust rigid packaging, magnetic-closure boxes and customised inserts ideally suit Newington. Adding high-end finishes such as foil blocking, embossing or soft-touch lamination will elevate this range to justify an elevated retail price.

Packaging design support if you do not have a designer

Ready to bring your ideas into reality? We offer full design assistance as part of our package, no matter how finished your artwork is!

Should you have established brand guidelines alongside print-ready creative files, we will carefully align with your requirements to get ready everything for the manufacturing process.

We reconstruct supplied JPEG or alternative image logos for print production because packaging demands more resolution than digital platforms demand.

Are you kicking off with just a trace of an inspiration? Our skilled crew will map out the complete packaging template with your production-ready graphics, also developing a bespoke layout when off-the-shelf containers simply will not do! We enthusiastically lead you through every individual technical decision from material density to final image quality as your exciting concept comes to life.

Alternatively, you may make use of our design software to tailor a packaging solution and incorporate your bespoke corporate identity prior to starting contact, or otherwise schedule a creative appointment should you prefer to discuss your requirements earlier.

Custom packaging for Newington’s industries

Our organisation produces bespoke packaging solutions for culinary creators, small distilleries, personal care brands and e-commerce merchants throughout Newington.

Each sector dictates its own standards, whether it is safe use in food contact to the fine surface finish a quality carton requires.

Food and drink

Scotland’s expansive food and drink market calls for fierce competition, demanding product packaging to meet safety standards while attracting attention on the shelf.

Did you realise we have BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level? Our food packaging is made under strictly controlled, auditable conditions that retailers review before adding any product!

Whisky and craft spirits

Our company manufactures bespoke printed bottle cartons alongside premium presentation boxes tailored specifically for independent spirit producers and Newington distilleries, incorporating sophisticated embellishments like metallic foiling, tactile embossing, and smooth soft touch lamination.

Distilleries can produce limited releases in small quantities without large-scale commitments thanks to our zero minimum order policy.

Cosmetics and beauty

We manufacture printed cartons for beauty, hair care and skin care brands, utilising finishes including raised embossing, foil and soft-touch lamination.

Make-up presentation of beauty products calls for the precise safeguarding of fragile glass and pressed powders while at the same time attracting attention on retail shelving, a dual responsibility mainly achieved through the application of durable surface coatings.

E-commerce and subscription brands

We help online sellers and recurring order brands by meticulously creating custom mailer boxes, custom tissue and fitted inserts.

Custom packaging tailored precisely to the item ensures its protected passage through the mail system, which thereby reduces the high burden of breakage and product replacements.

Opening a printed carton is really far more thrilling for your customer than unpacking a boring, standard package!

A packaging supplier perfect for Newington businesses

Were you aware that we actually make every single product personally at our own Irvine workshop in Ayrshire?

Local businesses throughout Newington can depend on this approach to ensure turnaround times remain swift whilst transport expenses are maintained at low.

Our delivery service spans Newington and the broader UK to make sure that distant companies gain from the equivalent fast dispatch times experienced by local firms located close to our manufacturing facility.

Operating as a specialist division of KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, Custom Pack Studio leverages a prestigious heritage of producing bespoke print and packaging within Scotland since 1997.

Crafted on those dedicated presses of those specialist artisans, your packaging is finished to the precise and meticulous finishing standards expected of an industry front-runner.

Before commencing mass fabrication, you will inspect a layout schematic and a physical model if the design pattern calls for it.

Sustainable packaging as standard

Did you know that all of the boxes we make is completely recyclable? It is true because the real board we use provides all of that eco-friendly benefit!

By obtaining our paper and board exclusively from FSC and PEFC certified woodlands, we ensure a transparent journey where every single sheet can be checked and traced back to its verified origins.

Mailers and shipping packaging formats employ corrugated board because this extremely durable material protects products and remains one of the most often recycled packaging options in Newington.

We remove single-use plastic and EPS from our operations due to their recycling difficulties and negative environmental impact.

Whenever the specific scheme allows, we advise utilising recyclable or paper-based, sustainable safeguarding materials whilst pre-emptively removing surplus from our planning process.of_thought_

Order one box or ten thousand

Generally, bespoke packaging needs a minimum quantity of either 500 or 1,000 items.

Testing a new product or running limited seasonal runs forces businesses to cover stock and storage before making any sales.

We accept purchases of every size with no minimum requirement. You can choose your ideal quantity, choose a single box or ten thousand units, and easily test your market with very little financial risk.

We deliver formal written validation of your costs for every quantity prior to production, whilst later manufacturing runs make use of your existing designs to ensure that scaling the business requires no further creative development.

How to order custom packaging

Please submit your details by phoning 01294 314 919 or filling in our form, stating the item, quantity, and channel, and we shall happily guide on the most suitable format if you would like guidance.

Regarding structural architecture and verification, we carefully prepare the enclosure around your merchandise, position the graphics, and issue an official proof, along with a physical prototype should the specific configuration require validation.

Ready to go for the magic to happen? As soon as you approve the proof, we begin work immediately manufacturing your order at our Irvine factory, typically taking only two to three weeks!

To make things easy, your order comes in flat-pack form and prepared for assembly, sent straight to any doorstep in Newington or throughout the UK.

Custom packaging Newington FAQ

What counts as custom packaging?

Bespoke packaging is manufactured to the precise sizes and specifications of your item. The measurements, material thickness, construction, style, and coating are all adapted to your specific items, ensuring the container fits snugly and displays your corporate identity. Just placing a emblem onto a pre-made carton constitutes bespoke packaging. By contrast, true custom packaging is engineered entirely around your product from the outset.

Is there a minimum order?

Absolutely not. There are no minimum order limits on any option, so you can order a single box or thousands. This route supports independent makers and anyone testing a new item. Estimates vary with order size, and you receive a quote in writing before production.

Do you deliver to Newington?

Our production facility in Irvine facilitates direct transportation to organisations throughout Newington. Manufacturing within Scotland ensures that both transit times and shipping expenses are kept highly cost-effective for Scottish businesses.

What are your lead times?

After you have approved your initial proof, the majority of commissions require 2 to 3 weeks for completion, though simpler cartons are often completed more quickly. If you do have a specific date to meet, please let know us during your first enquiry so we can check if this timescale is achievable.

Can you help if I do not have a designer?

Ready to watch your basic concepts become reality? We frequently take a basic logo and a spark of inspiration and convert them into stunning, print ready masterpieces, with a full design consultation built right into the process! Or, if you fancy having a go yourself, why not jump onto our online design tool to kickstart your creation and then pass the baton over to us whenever you are ready?

Is the packaging recyclable?

Each carton is fully recyclable and manufactured from approved forest board holding the two FSC and PEFC certifications. We carefully avoid plastic laminates and coatings which prevent successful reclamation unless strict hygiene regulations dictate otherwise, always outlining each available alternative beforehand.
