What custom packaging means
Our bespoke packaging is carefully created to fit a certain item, allowing you to select the size, the layout, the graphics and the end coating.
Adding a logo to a preassembled box is still a different and considerably more constrained process.
By selecting our bespoke packaging, you will be provided with customised casing dimensions suited to your item, relevant board durability picked for its intended journey, and personalised printing across your preferred surfaces.
From the initial spark of design, the packaging is carefully conceived to showcase the product.
We truly enjoy collaborating with food producers, cosmetics brands, online sellers and craft spirits makers across the country!
The custom packaging we make
We create a wide-ranging collection of box formats to your bespoke sizes, professionally showcasing your personal design in bold, full colour finish.
The best packaging design for your item is shaped by its physical nature, selling method, and delivery journey, and our specialists will advise your selection.
Folding cartons
Commercial products commonly employ crash-lock bottom and reverse tuck-end boxes as common packaging formats.
Designed with ends that insert at opposite ends, the reverse tuck-end carton is ideally suited for light merchandise such as cosmetics and health supplements.
Designed with a bottom that mechanically interlocks upon assembly, the crash-lock box simply supports weightier merchandise to stop any structural collapse, whilst both packaging styles are delivered in a collapsed state and can be fully built in mere moments.
Postal and mailer boxes
For companies active within the digital marketplace, bespoke postal packaging protects your merchandise during transit whilst at the same time transforming the unpacking experience into an essential extension of your brand identity.
By utilising double-sided printing, a specialist mailer box raises the standard delivery into a polished unboxing event for online shoppers, whilst maintaining the structural integrity required to withstand the postal journey intact.
In addition, we manufacture expandable e-commerce cartons created specifically for products needing more depth or flexible packaging.
Sleeves and wallets
A sleek sleeve glides smoothly over the product or inner tray to immediately introduce bold branding whilst preserving the original packaging, delivering an extremely clever and budget-friendly solution for displaying exclusive seasonal lines and limited-run releases.
Crafted to encase the item in the manner of a folder, this wallet style box provides an elegant flat display for shop goods, images and stationery.
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
Custom gift boxes provide the premium presentation retail customers anticipate for gift purchases whilst completely eliminating the need to wrap anything.
Can you picture the impact of rigid boxes, magnetic-close boxes and printed inserts? They occupy this area precisely, whilst premium finishes like foil stamping, embossing and soft-touch lamination quickly enhance the design to high-end packaging that easily achieves a premium price!
Packaging design support if you do not have a designer
Thorough design support continues an important component of our support, whatever the ongoing development phase of your artwork.
Got brand guidelines and print-ready files prepared? We’ll jump right in to ready your designs for final manufacture!
When a brand mark is sent in a JPEG or different pixel format, we carefully reproduce it for production requirements because tangible packaging demands a considerably greater degree of image clarity than a virtual platform needs.
Starting from a simple initial concept, our specialists create your packaging architecture and production-ready graphics, designing bespoke structural solutions when stock containers cannot suffice. We explain every technical specification throughout the workflow, including material thickness and image definition.
Alternatively, you could make use of our online creator to personalise a carton and add your own logo before contacting us, or book a creative meeting if you want to discussing your ideas beforehand.
