What custom packaging means
Our bespoke packaging is precisely designed to house a particular item, allowing you to select the size, the configuration, the designs and the end coating.
Attaching a logo on a ready-made carton is a distinct and considerably more restricted project.
Our fully bespoke packaging ensures you receive precise dimensions appropriate for your item, packaging strength matched to your shipping requirements, and custom print printed on your chosen panels.
We create the packaging closely around the product from the initial stage.
Custom Pack Studio collaborates with food producers, cosmetics businesses, online retailers and boutique distilleries nationwide.
The custom packaging we make
We manufacture a wide range of box styles to your format specifications. All order includes custom sizing and bold full colour printing of your distinctive branding.
Establishing the best presentation for your merchandise relies upon its inherent nature, your sales methodology, and the distribution process, which our specialists will assist you in selecting.
Folding cartons
Conventional shop packaging solutions typically utilises the standard designs of reverse tuck-end boxes and crash-lock bottom boxes.
With closing flaps at the top and base, the gentle reverse tuck-end carton attractively supports lighter items like cosmetics and supplements.
Ready for some packaging magic? Such smart crash-lock boxes feature a smart base that snaps securely into place the very second you unfold them! This robust design easily supports your heaviest items without any risk of the bottom collapsing. Even better, both styles arrive completely flat and take mere moments to build!
Postal and mailer boxes
Bespoke postal boxes protect your e-commerce products during transit and convert standard shipping into a powerful marketing tool.
Double-sided printing changes a standard mailer box from a plain transit package into a lasting unboxing journey while maintaining the durability required to withstand the postal system.
Additionally, we make gusseted e-commerce boxes for goods requiring additional depth or an adaptable fit.
Sleeves and wallets
A slip-on jacket covers a brand item or an internal container to provide visible merchandising without sacrificing the original box, thereby offering an highly effective and cost-effective refinement for short-term lines and exclusive releases.
Made to surround your merchandise like a streamlined folder, this wallet-style packaging delivers an elegant and flat display that is well suited for displaying cards, prints and slim retail items.
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
Are you looking to enhance your existing game? Delivering items in a bespoke gift box delivers that luxurious look buyers desire without any of the packaging fuss!
Solid rigid boxes, magnetic closure packaging and specially printed inserts prove extremely effective for this application, whilst sophisticated embellishments such as hot foil blocking, embossing and tactile soft-touch lamination enhance the presentation to premium packaging that effectively justifies a premium price tag.
Packaging design support if you do not have a designer
Our service provides detailed design assistance at all stages of your artwork development.
On receipt of your established corporate guidelines and production-ready designs, we will closely align our processes to these specifications and prepare your assets for ultimate manufacture.
To prepare your packaging for print, we redraw any logo supplied as a JPEG or alternative image format because actual manufacturing requires a much greater resolution than screen-based platforms require.
Starting from just a rough concept, we create your box structure and print ready artwork. Our specialists create bespoke packaging when standard templates do not suit. To help guide you, we cover every technical detail, including board weight and print resolution.
Alternatively, you may, you could utilise our online creator to personalise a carton and add your own logo before contacting us, or schedule a creative meeting if you prefer discussing your ideas beforehand.

Every sector sets its own requirements, whether it is safe use in food contact to the fine finish a premium carton requires.
Food and drink
In the expansive and highly competitive food and drink sector of Scotland, packaging must meet rigorous safety standards for direct product contact while simultaneously drawing visual appeal on the retail shelf.
As holders of the respected BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, we guarantee that our food packaging is made within strictly managed and fully traceable environments. This rigorous standard ensures total compliance before retailers approve any product for their shelves.

Cosmetics and beauty
Our artisans create bespoke printed cartons for leading skincare, haircare and cosmetics houses, perfecting each package with exquisite finishes like tactile soft-touch lamination, metallic foil and delicate embossing.
Beauty containers must safeguard delicate glassware and pressed powders whilst drawing interest on retail displays, a task mainly achieved through the chosen surface texture.

Sustainable packaging as standard
Each of the made cartons is fully recyclable because the built-in qualities of the board itself give this environmentally responsible quality.
We obtain all of our paper and board solely from FSC and PEFC certified origins, making sure that each individual sheet is completely traceable through a rigorously audited chain of custody directly back to well-managed forests.
Employed extensively for shipping boxes and postal boxes, corrugated board offers robust protection whilst being one of the most frequently recycled packaging mediums across the UK.
We are carefully removing disposable plastics and EPS, the white foam used as filling material, from our operations. This is due to the fact that these materials are hard to recycle and harm the environment when discarded.
Whenever the project layout allows, our team advocates using paper that can be recycled or sustainable protective materials whilst proactively preventing extra surplus.
Order one box or ten thousand
Custom packaging usually calls for an initial manufacturing run of at least 500 or one thousand individual boxes.
When a enterprise evaluates a fresh commodity or manufactures a restricted ceremonial collection, they incur upfront expenses for inventory and warehousing before establishing market demand.
As we impose absolutely zero minimum order requirements, you keep full control over the volume, whether you need a single individual box or a production run of ten thousand, which ensures that an first small batch serves as a highly secure method for assessing consumer demand.
We offer formal written validation of your costs for any volume prior to manufacturing, whilst future production runs utilise the existing designs to ensure that expanding the company requires no further creative development.

Custom packaging Old Kilpatrick FAQ
What counts as custom packaging?
Tailored packaging aligns with your product dimensions and specifications exactly. Dimensions, board thickness, construction, printing and finishes are tailored to your cargo to ensure a precise fit and support your brand. Stamping a logo onto a standard carton simply creates branded packaging. True bespoke packaging is built around the product itself.
Is there a minimum order?
We impose zero minimum order conditions, so you can buy anything from one box to thousands. This versatility supports independent creators and organisations testing new merchandise. Your unit cost decreases as your order volume increases, and we always provide a documented price estimation before manufacturing.
Do you deliver to Old Kilpatrick?
Our local facility crafts goods shipped directly to businesses in Old Kilpatrick. Scottish production guarantees swifter turnaround times and much reduced transport costs for Scottish brands.
What are your lead times?
Once you have signed off on the design, we typically require two to three weeks to complete your packaging, though more straightforward boxes can often be produced more swiftly. Should you have a important date in mind, please let us know it during your initial enquiry so we can quickly determine if we can make it happen.
Can you help if I do not have a designer?
We often commence our creative journey with simply a brand emblem and a brief concept, developing your first thoughts into fully realised production-ready files. A shared design consultation is integrated into this process to guide your vision. As an alternative, you can start the process alone by making use of our digital design platform before handing the reins to our specialists whenever you feel prepared.
Is the packaging recyclable?
Crafted from FSC and PEFC certified board, each box is fully recyclable. We purposefully steer clear of plastic laminates and coatings that interfere with this recycling process, unless food safety absolutely demands it, and we always review your options first.
