Why select tailor-made wrapping
A standard box creates empty space around the product, enabling it to rattle during transport until somebody fills the gap with foam or paper to prevent it from moving.
Standard packaging bearing an attached sticker is the simplest choice, but it is not designed for anyone in particular.
Custom Pack Studio creates bespoke packaging around your product, ensuring the box, print and finish support your brand rather than covering it.
We make custom boxes, mailer boxes, gift packaging and printed accessories for businesses across Oystermouth and the valleys beyond. Orders can be as small as one sample or as large as a pallet delivered straight to your warehouse door!
We require no minimum order, so stock and storage costs stay out of the equation until you know that a product sells.
Tell us your packaging requirements, and we’ll customise the recommendation to suit the product perfectly.
What bespoke packaging signifies
Custom packaging designs the box around your product from the beginning, so its size and printing reflect exactly what you are putting inside.
Select your measurements and create a made-to-measure box that keeps the product snug, preventing it from rattling around in the unused space of a standard-sized box.
Even the structure, board weight, print and finish are custom designed to suit what is being packed and the way it travels!
Printing your logo on a stock box produces personalised packaging, requiring less work than a fully customisable design.
Using customised packaging, you can change every panel, fold and finish, even for a single run, producing packaging that fits with no compromise.
Packing formats we manufacture for Oystermouth firms
We manufacture a comprehensive range of packaging boxes, each made to bespoke dimensions and printed in full colour using your artwork.
The ideal box style and packaging format depend on what you sell and the way it is handled, while our packaging experts will talk you through the choices!
Shop cartons and tailor-made branded packaging
Reverse tuck end cartons remain a well-known retail packaging option for lighter products, including cosmetics and supplements, featuring flaps that fold neatly into both the top and bottom.
Crash lock boxes are a kind of lock box, providing a sturdier cardboard design with a base that snaps flat when opened, preventing heavier products from pushing the bottom out.
Parcel and online retail boxes
A custom mailer box safeguards your product throughout the courier network while making delivery part of the brand experience and enhancing visibility, with printing inside and outside instead of solely on the outer face.
Gusseted versions of these custom printed boxes create additional depth, giving bulkier items space to sit securely without shifting.
Present boxes, robust boxes and pitched-top boxes
Rigid boxes, gift boxes with magnetic closures and other branded boxes give presents a polished presentation customers expect, without requiring them to wrap anything themselves.
Gable boxes, featuring a fold up carry handle, are brilliant for food gifts and hampers!
For premium lines, we may select SBS board, solid bleached sulphate and a bright, food safe paperboard, over standard carton stock, while foil and soft touch lamination improve the finished effect.
Craft backing for your Oystermouth business
We provide packaging design support with each order, irrespective of your artwork’s current stage.
If you have a logo and brand guidelines, our design specialists prepare print ready files and check that colours are reproduced accurately on board, because packaging needs greater resolution than a website image.
You don’t need design experience to create packaging that fits your brand. Our team can begin with only just a logo. Working together, they establish the structure and create expertly designed, print ready artwork, explaining each technical decision as the project develops.
Our online tool lets you customise a box and preview its appearance before printing. Pantone colour matching keeps every repeat order consistent.
If you need packaging printed in both English and Welsh, our team treats it as a standard artwork requirement, just like any other language or colour change.
Personalised packaging for the Oystermouth’s industries
Dishes and drinks
Welsh Lamb and Welsh Beef both have Protected Geographical Indication status, and all food packaging which touches meat or dairy must comply with food contact standards, regardless of which side of the border it is produced on.
We have BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, meaning our food packaging is manufactured in controlled and traceable conditions that retailers verify prior to listing products.
Beverages and distilleries
Over the past twenty years, Wales has established a flourishing drinks scene, spanning Brecon Beacons distilleries and more recent gin and whisky producers in the north.
Bottle presentation boxes must endure transit while retaining their shelf appeal, with finishes such as foil stamping and embossing delivering much of the impact for a limited release or seasonal gift set.
Make-up and skincare essentials
Cosmetic and skincare brands need cartons that protect fragile glass and compacts while presenting well on the shelf.
We manufacture cosmetics packaging with soft touch lamination, foil and embossing, while rigid boxes suit premium ranges that must support a higher price point.
Internet commerce and subscription labels
Retail and display packaging is significant when a product is placed in a shop or marketplace fulfilment centre, whereas subscription brands face a different evaluation.
As the same customer opens an nearly identical box every month, maintaining a consistent finish is equally important as the initial design.
Effective online packaging, made precisely to fit your product packaging, maintains items secure during transit and reduces damage claims and returns.
A tailored insert or printed tissue holds securely the product during transit, while ensuring the print remains immediately visible when the box opens.
For a subscription brand that reorders monthly, using identical box dimensions makes pallet space and warehouse racking consistent, an ever more valuable advantage once volumes exceed a few hundred units.
Sending to Oystermouth from our Scottish
Everything is made at our Irvine facility, with UK delivery to businesses in Oystermouth provided as standard.
Following proof approval, deliveries to a Oystermouth address generally arrive within two to three weeks, following the timetable for all our packaging across the UK.
Custom Pack Studio is owned by KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, a packaging manufacturer producing print and packaging since 1997, which means an established team creates the boxes using its own presses.
You’ll review a proof and, where the format calls for it, a physical sample before full production starts. Repeat orders use the same artwork, so scaling up never means beginning from scratch!
Employing a one box company for packaging throughout your whole product range streamlines the process.
You have one invoice and a single contact, removing the need to chase several suppliers quoting different prices for different weeks.
Ethical packaging as the default
Every box we make is fully recyclable, with that recyclability rooted in the board itself.
Our board and paper are procured from FSC and PEFC certified suppliers, with every sheet traceable through an audited chain to responsibly managed forests.
We are cutting down on single use plastic and EPS foam void fill across our processes because neither is readily recyclable, causing disposal difficulties after a parcel is opened.
Where the design allows, biodegradable or paper-based protection is utilised in their place.
Absolutely no minimum purchase for Oystermouth companies
Throughout the industry, custom packaging commonly calls for minimum orders of 500 or 1,000 units, requiring you to fund stock and storage before discovering if your product will sell.
We have no minimum order requirement.
Small businesses may order a single sample, limited runs for testing, or a complete production run once demand has been established, with the unit price varying according to the quantity ordered.
Prior to production begins, you will always receive a written quote. The high quality materials and packaging products supplied for a run of fifty are exactly the same as those provided for a run of ten thousand.
Prior to ordering in volume, ask for a printed sample and inspect its print, colour and how it sits in your hand.

Tailored packaging Oystermouth FAQ
Would you supply bespoke packaging to Oystermouth?
Certainly. We make each item in Irvine, with standard delivery offered throughout the UK, including all of Oystermouth and Wales, with no an additional charge for greater distance from the factory.
What the smallest quantity needed for packaging with Oystermouth?
There is no minimum order. We can produce one box or thousands in whatever format, with quantity-based pricing confirmed in a written quotation before manufacture starts.
Which areas of the packaging can be customised?
Every format allows changes to size, structure, board weight, print and finish, ensuring the packaging meets your brief exactly. Branded packaging can also be printed on both the inside and outside.
Can we have examples of your parcel products before making a purchase?
Yes. The sample is printed and finished to precisely reproduce a production run, enabling you to verify that its colours satisfy your brief and that the board feels suitable prior to approving a bulk order.
Does the packaging be recyclable plus can it decompose?
Each box is 100% recyclable. We avoid plastic laminates that prevent recycling unless food safety requires them, while biodegradable protective materials are used whenever the format permits.
May we place another order for the same design at a later time?
Yes, reorders are produced from the same artwork file, so expanding an order or repeating it for a new season never requires the packaging to be redesigned from the beginning.
