Why opt for pick bespoke packaging
A standard box leaves empty space around the product, enabling it to rattle during transport until someone fills the gap with foam or paper to keep it still.
Standard packaging with a sticker is easy, but it is designed for no one in particular.
Custom Pack Studio creates bespoke packaging tailored to your product, ensuring the box, print and finish reinforce your brand rather than overshadowing it.
We produce custom boxes, mailer boxes, gift packaging and printed accessories for companies throughout Porth Penrhyn and the valleys beyond. Orders can be as small as one sample or as large as a pallet delivered straight to your warehouse door!
You can purchase any quantity of what we make, so inventory and storage expenses remain unnecessary until you have established that a product sells.
Provide your packaging requirements, and we will tailor the recommendation to the product itself.
What custom packaging signifies
Custom packaging starts with your product, with the box dimensions and print specification designed to suit exactly what you are packing.
You select the dimensions, enabling a made-to-measure box to keep the product securely without movement caused by surplus space in a standard size.
The structure, board weight, print and finish are also custom designed, carefully matched to what is being packed and the way it travels.
Printing a logo on a stock box produces personalised packaging, offering a more modest project than fully customisable design.
With customised packaging, each panel, fold and finish can be tailored, even for one run, allowing you to create packaging that fits exactly without any compromise.
Packing types we make for Porth Penrhyn firms
We produce a complete range of packaging boxes, made to custom sizes and printed in full colour with your artwork.
Selecting the appropriate box style and packaging type depends on your product and the way it is handled. Our packaging experts will take you through the available options.
Shop cartons and labelled packaging
Reverse tuck end cartons are a widely used retail packaging option, suitable for lightweight products such as cosmetics and supplements, featuring closure flaps folding into both the top and bottom.
Crash lock boxes are a stronger form of lock box, made from cardboard with a base that snaps flat when opened, stopping heavier products from pushing the bottom out.
Mailer and online retail boxes
A bespoke mailer box protects your product across the courier network, turning delivery into an exciting part of the brand experience while boosting visibility through printing on both the inside and outside, rather than just the outer face.
Gusseted versions of these custom printed boxes provide additional depth, allowing bulkier items space to rest securely without shifting.
Gift boxes, rigid boxes and gable boxes
Rigid boxes, magnetic close gift boxes and additional branded boxes give products purchased as gifts with the polished presentation customers anticipate, eliminating the need for customers to wrap them on their own.
Gable boxes, supplied with a handle that folds upwards, make an excellent choice for food gifts and hampers.
For high-end ranges, we may select SBS board (solid bleached sulphate, a bright, food safe paperboard) over standard carton stock, while finishes such as foil and soft touch lamination improve the result.
Create assistance for your Porth Penrhyn brand.
We provide packaging design support with every order, regardless of your artwork’s current stage.
If you’ve got a logo and branding guidelines, our design specialists prepare print-ready files and check that colours are reproduced accurately on board, as packaging needs higher resolution than website imagery.
You do not need any prior experience in design to create packaging that reflects your brand. Our team can start with just a logo. Together, you will establish the structure and create professionally designed, print ready artwork, as we explain each technical decision as it arises.
Our digital design tool allows you to customise a box and view its appearance on screen before printing starts. Pantone colour matching is also available, helping each repeat order stay consistent.
When you need packaging printed in both English and Welsh, our team regards it as a routine artwork requirement, just like any other language or colour change.
Personalised packaging for Porth Penrhyn’s own industries
Dishes and drink
Welsh Lamb and Welsh Beef both have Protected Geographical Indication status, while all food packaging that comes into contact with meat or dairy must meet food contact standards, wherever it is manufactured.
Our BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level confirms that we produce food packaging in controlled, traceable conditions, meeting the checks retailers require prior to listing products.
Drinks and distilleries
Throughout Wales, a thriving drinks culture has emerged during the past twenty years, stretching from Brecon Beacons distilleries to more recent gin and whisky makers in the north.
Bottle presentation boxes must withstand transport while preserving their shelf appeal, with finishes including foil stamping and embossing delivering a great deal of the impact for a limited release or seasonal gift set.
Makeup and aesthetics of the Porth Penrhyn
Cosmetic and skincare brands need cartons that protect fragile glass and compacts while looking presentable on shelves.
We produce cosmetics packaging with soft touch lamination, foil and embossing, whereas rigid boxes suit premium ranges that must support a higher price point.
E-commerce and membership businesses
Retail and display packaging is key when a product is positioned in a shop or marketplace fulfilment centre, whereas subscription brands encounter a different evaluation.
Each month, the same customer returns to an nearly identical box, making a dependable finish just as important as the original design.
Precisely sized e commerce packaging keeps products safely in transit, helping to prevent damage, reduce claims and limit returns.
A fitted insert or printed tissue prevents the product from moving during transit, while making sure the print is instantly visible when the box is opened.
For a subscription brand making repeat orders monthly, maintaining uniform box dimensions makes pallet space and warehouse racking predictable, an increasingly important factor as volumes exceed a few hundred units.
Sending to Porth Penrhyn from our Scotland facility
Everything is produced at our Irvine facility, with UK delivery to companies in Porth Penrhyn included by default.
Once your proof is approved, the majority of orders arrive at a Porth Penrhyn address within two to three weeks, matching the delivery timescale for our packaging throughout the UK.
Custom Pack Studio is owned by KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, a packaging manufacturer producing print and packaging since 1997, meaning an established team produces the boxes with its own presses.
You receive a proof and, where the format requires it, a physical sample before full production begins. Reorders retain the same artwork, so scaling up never requires again.
Using a single box company for packaging across your entire product range simplifies the process.
Enjoy one invoice and a single point of contact, instead of seeking out multiple suppliers, each offering a different price for another week.
Green packaging as typical
Each box we produce is 100% recyclable as its board is recyclable.
Our board and paper come from FSC and PEFC certified sources, while an audited supply chain tracks every sheet back to responsibly managed forests.
We are reducing single use plastic and EPS foam void fill across our processes because neither can be readily recycled, and both create difficulties with disposal after a parcel has been opened.
Where the design allows, biodegradable or paper-based protection is used in place of them.
Not any minimum buy for Porth Penrhyn companies
Throughout the industry, custom packaging often requires minimum orders of 500 or 1,000 units, meaning you must fund stock and storage before discovering whether your product will sell.
There is no minimum order requirement at all.
Smaller businesses may place an order for one sample, a limited run for testing, or a full production run once demand has been established, with the price per unit adjusting at each quantity across this range.
You are sent a written quotation before production begins, while the high-quality materials and packaging products supplied for a run of fifty are the same as those supplied for a run of ten thousand.
Before committing to a greater quantity, get a printed sample and assess the print, colour and how it sits in your hand.
