Releasing a product from Portstewart already gives you plenty to organise, from stock and shipping to the box label.
Custom Pack Studio creates and prints bespoke packaging at the company’s Irvine, UK factory. Portstewart addresses utilise the same production line and courier network as all other UK orders.
Every box is produced specifically for your product, with no minimum order needed and design guidance available from the very first sketch.
Receiving tailor-made packaging provided for Portstewart
Portstewart is situated just a short crossing from our factory in Irvine.
Because we produce each item ourselves, we determine directly how and when your custom packaging order is dispatched, without a reseller involved.
Orders bound for Northern Ireland pass through the same nationwide courier network as every other delivery we dispatch. Allow two to three weeks from approved proof until arrival at your door.
As a packaging supplier, we would rather provide a realistic delivery timeframe from the outset rather than promise swift delivery and fail to meet it.
Smaller orders are delivered in a standard tracked parcel.
For large-volume Portstewart customers, bulk runs are consolidated into fewer, larger consignments, cutting down on handling and helping to keep costs down.
Containers and wrapping we make
Most Portstewart orders fall within a limited range of formats, each carefully created around your product rather than drawn directly from standard stock.
Our printing services provide full-colour litho or digital printing, depending on the run size you require.
Postage and shipping boxes for internet orders
The custom-made mailer box folds flat and fastens shut without tape. It keeps the product secure across a courier network that crosses the Irish Sea every working day.
Print the outside, and your customer encounters the package before its contents are revealed. Print the inside as well, and unboxing forms part of the experience from the moment the tape is lifted.
We can assist you in creating packaging that makes an impression on delivery.
Retail cartons and ribbed shipping cartons
Reverse tuck end cartons are suited to lightweight retail products, such as cosmetics and supplements, while a crash lock base holds heavier items without the bottom giving way.
Corrugated board offers protective packaging for goods stacked on a pallet, repeatedly handled, or destined for a shelf in Portstewart.
Its purpose is to safeguard your products, rather than merely take up space in a van.
Covers, gift cartons and purses
A slide on sleeve applies branding to a product or inner tray without needing an entirely new box, which makes it suitable for limited runs and seasonal ranges.
Gift boxes and wallets can supply the last packaging supplies needed to complete an order.
A wallet-style box wraps around cards, prints or slim products, offering a refined finish without the bulk of a full carton.
No minimum quantity, irrespective of the scale of your Portstewart company.
Perhaps you are wondering whether beginning your journey means ordering a thousand boxes immediately. After all, throughout the industry, minimum orders of 500 or 1,000 units are often considered standard.
For small Portstewart brand, that figure can rule out bespoke packaging even before the idea has even had an opportunity.
That is not the way we operate.
Order one box to check the print before committing, or fifty for a market stall or soft launch. Whatever the size of your run, you will receive a reasonable price.
Scale up production to meet whatever quantity a retailer requires when they have signed you up.
Irrespective of order size, you receive the same print quality and finish, all made on the same production line. Great packaging should never be determined by the quantity you order!
Pricing that scales with order size, with no additional charges.
As your order grows, so does the pricing, while each quotation is confirmed in writing before production starts.
The specified figure is the amount invoiced, while repeat orders use the same configuration and artwork, helping to manage costs as your business expands.
Artwork support if you are without an in-house design professional, Portstewart
You don’t need a designer on your team to order from us. Design support is included with every order, regardless of the stage your artwork has reached.
Provide the finished artwork, ready for print, and we will ready it for the press, verifying that colour and resolution stay accurate on the printed board itself.
Just provide your logo and a rough concept, then, our team will develop the custom packaging design and produce the print ready files alongside you!
Our online design tool creates your box in 3D, enabling you to customise it and preview the result before printing begins.
You can also arrange a design consultation if you would rather discuss the options with someone rather than look at them on screen.
Portstewart company sectors that we handle packing for
Only a few sectors face greater scrutiny over food and drink packaging, an area that we specialise in.
Our BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level means Northern Ireland producers are provided with cartons and food contact packaging made in controlled, fully traceable conditions.
This is the certification retailers typically need prior to listing a product.
Online retailers in Portstewart ship across the country, while a mailer box made for the product helps minimise damage and returns. It additionally makes opening the order more exciting than receiving a standard parcel.
Gift and hamper brands, subscription boxes and independent beauty makers complete the blend, each requiring different packaging solutions.
Foil stamping gives a opulent finish to a gift box, whereas a fitted insert keeps a bottle secure throughout transit.
Our objective is to develop customised solutions that complement your product precisely while making a long-lasting impact.
Sustainably sourced materials validated by genuine certification
Each box we manufacture is 100% recyclable, using quality board and paper sourced through FSC and PEFC certified supply chains. The materials can be traced through audited processes to responsibly managed forests.
We do not use plastic coatings or laminates that stop a box from being recycled, except where food safety requires them. In such cases, we will explain this clearly without disguising the reason.
Producing everything in our Scotland factory also helps reduce our delivery footprint, compared with importing eco-friendly materials or anything else from abroad.
