What custom packaging means
We create bespoke packaging engineered fully around your specific product by offering you full control over the measurements, look, print and finish!
Are you prepared to discover how altering a regular carton is in fact a completely distinct and considerably more restricted ballgame?
Our understanding of a fully customisable box involves that we precisely tailor the dimensions to match your individual product, determine the best board weight based on anticipated handling, and print print to whichever panels you require.
To begin with, we thoroughly map out the packaging around the product from the very start of the design process.
Custom Pack Studio partners with food manufacturers, cosmetic organisations, digital retailers and artisanal distilleries throughout the whole country.
The custom packaging we make
We produce diverse box styles to your layout specifications. Each order features custom sizing and vibrant full colour printing of your unique branding.
To determine the perfect format for your product, we assess its type, sales process, and distribution approach, and our supportive team is here to support you at each stage.
Folding cartons
Traditional retail packaging regularly utilises the standard types of reverse tuck-end boxes and crash-lock bottom boxes.
With closing flaps at the top and base, the gentle reverse tuck end carton neatly supports more lightweight items like cosmetics and supplements.
Designed with a base that automatically secures itself upon expansion, the crash-lock box successfully supports substantial items to prevent possible structural failure, whilst both styles are supplied flat and can be fully constructed in mere moments.
Postal and mailer boxes
Bespoke mailer boxes secure your e-commerce products during transit and convert standard shipping into a valuable promotional tool.
Double-sided printing changes a standard mailer box from a simple transit package into a memorable unboxing journey whilst maintaining the robustness required to withstand the postal system.
We also craft gusseted ecommerce boxes, offering the perfect, ample fit for goods requiring a more generous or more flexible fit.
Sleeves and wallets
A slip-on jacket encases a branded item or an internal container to offer prominent merchandising without sacrificing the original box, thus offering an extremely efficient and cost-effective refinement for short-term lines and special releases.
Is your packaging ready for a lift? This incredible wallet-style box packages your items like a sleek folder to deliver an ultra-premium, flat display that is absolutely perfect for prints, cards and slim retail products!
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
Branded gift boxes offer the premium presentation retail customers expect for gift purchases whilst completely eliminating the need to wrap anything.
First, pick rigid boxes, magnetic-close boxes and printed inserts, then apply finishes like foil stamping, embossing and soft-touch lamination to produce premium packaging that easily warrants a greater price point.
Packaging design support if you do not have a designer
Ready to turn your ideas to life? We provide full design support as part of our package, however complete your artwork may be!
Should you possess defined brand guidelines alongside print-ready creative files, we will carefully align with your requirements to prepare everything for the manufacturing process.
We recreate supplied JPEG or alternative image logos for production printing because packaging needs greater resolution than digital platforms require.
Starting with just a conceptual outline, our specialist specialists will conceptualise both the structural template and the finalised graphics for your project, whilst customising a bespoke packaging design when conventional containers prove unsuitable. We regularly guide you through each technical decision, thoroughly clarifying our selection of structural materials and graphic clarity along the journey.
Alternatively, you may, you could utilise our online creator to tailor a carton and add your own logo before reaching out, or arrange a creative meeting if you would rather discussing your ideas beforehand.
Custom packaging for Sherwood’s industries
Do are you looking for excellent packaging for your food and drink, distillery, cosmetics or e-commerce business? We develop brands with eye-catching packaging and wraps right across Sherwood!
Each sector has its own individual set of criteria, ranging from strict food safety compliance to the flawless finish required for a luxury carton!
Food and drink
The culinary industry within Scotland is equally expansive and extremely disputed, required that product packaging ensures complete safety upon touch whilst simultaneously attracting interest on the retail shelf.
As holders of the well-regarded BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, we confirm that our food packaging is produced within carefully controlled and fully traceable environments. This strict standard delivers total compliance before retailers accept any product for their shelves.
Whisky and craft spirits
Our specialists manufacture bespoke printed bottle cartons and display packaging for craft spirit producers and whisky distilleries, using high-quality finishes including spot foil, debossing and tactile lamination.
Are you launching a limited release? Thanks to this great zero minimum order policy, each distillery can at present easily print small batches without being forced to buy huge quantities!
Cosmetics and beauty
We create bespoke printed cartons for the beauty, hair care and dermatology industries, refining each design with luxury embellishments including raised detailing, eye-catching foil applications and sophisticated soft-touch lamination.
Cosmetic product presentation requires the careful safeguarding of delicate glass and pressed powders while at the same time attracting attention on retail shelving, a twofold responsibility mainly achieved through the utilising of premium surface coatings.
E-commerce and subscription brands
Want to delight your buyers? We produce branded mailer boxes, printed tissue and fitted inserts for digital retailers and subscription brands!
Bespoke packaging shaped specifically to the item ensures its secure passage through the mail system, which in the end reduces the high burden of breakage and product replacements.
In addition, a bespoke printed carton offers the recipient a far more immersive unboxing experience than plain , generic packaging offers.

Establishing operations in Sherwood allows local enterprises profit from minimised waiting periods and significantly reduced distribution expenses.

Did you know Custom Pack Studio is part of KennedySmith (Press) Ltd? They’re a excellent packaging manufacturer making print and packaging in Scotland since 1997!
Produced on those dedicated presses of those specialist artisans, your packaging is manufactured to the strict and exacting finishing standards expected of an industry leading name.
We supply a virtual layout and a physical prototype for validation before beginning complete production.
Sustainable packaging as standard
Each item we manufacture is completely recyclable owing to the inherent characteristics of the cardboard material.
By sourcing our board and paper from FSC and PEFC certified origins, we help ensure each sheet remains fully traceable through an checked pathway to sustainably managed forests.
Used heavily for postal cartons and postal boxes, corrugated board provides robust protection whilst staying one of the most frequently recycled packaging mediums across the country.
Our organisation is actively removing single-use plastic and EPS, which is the expanded polystyrene white foam frequently employed for packaging void fill, across our day-to-day procedures due to the significant challenges these materials present for recycling and the consequent ecological damage they cause when thrown away.
Whenever designs allow, we favour sustainable paper or reusable protection, choosing to reduce waste instead.
Order one box or ten thousand
Custom packaging generally requires an order commitment of 500 or 1,000 items.
When businesses test a new creation or release a brief marketing range, they may risk acquiring inventory and warehousing space prior to validating consumer demand.
Are you ready to launch? We enforce no minimal order limits, meaning you can order everything from a single box to a massive run of ten thousand! This keeps a tiny initial order the ultimate lower-risk strategy to test your market.
We provide clear written quotes for any volume before manufacturing starts, and because return orders use the original artwork, you can grow without the need to redesign your packaging.

Custom packaging Sherwood FAQ
What counts as custom packaging?
Need packaging solutions tailored precisely to the product’s exact dimensions? Everything from the size and board weight to the structure, print and finish is designed for a precise fit that highlights your brand! Adding a logo on a standard box is just personalised packaging. True custom packaging is carefully designed from the product up!
Is there a minimum order?
Not at all. There are no minimum order minimums on any option, so you can ask for one box or many thousands. This pathway supports solo creators and anybody trying a new piece. Estimates vary with quantity, and you receive a written quote before making.
Do you deliver to Sherwood?
Our local facility produces goods sent straight to businesses in Sherwood. Local production ensures faster turnaround times and significantly lower transport costs for Scottish brands.
What are your lead times?
After you have approved your initial proof, the majority of commissions require a couple of weeks for finishing, though simpler cartons are often made more quickly. Should you have a specific date to meet, please tell us during your first enquiry so we can confirm if this timescale is achievable.
Can you help if I do not have a designer?
We routinely turn a straightforward concept and logo into completed, print ready files, including a dedicated design consultation during the process. As an alternative, you can initiate the project yourself using our virtual creator before handing it to us.
Is the packaging recyclable?
Crafted from FSC and PEFC certified board, every single box is fully recyclable. We intentionally avoid plastic laminates and coatings that impede this recycling process, unless food safety absolutely demands it, and we always discuss your options first.
