What makes you choose bespoke packaging
A standard box has room around the item, allowing it to rattle during transit until somebody fills the space with foam or paper to keep it still.
Selecting off-the-shelf packaging with a sticker on the side may be straightforward, but it belongs to nobody in particular.
At Custom Pack Studio, custom-made packaging is shaped around your product, ensuring the box, print and finish support your brand instead of overshadowing it.
We manufacture bespoke boxes, mailer boxes, gift packaging and printed accessories for businesses across Somerton and surrounding valleys, with orders varying from one sample to a pallet delivered straight to a warehouse door.
We require no minimum order for any item we make, allowing you to avoid stock and storage costs until a product’s sales potential is determined.
Tell us about your packaging requirements, and we will customise the recommendation to suit the product itself.
What bespoke packaging represents
Custom packaging forms the box around your product from the outset, with its dimensions and print tailored to what you are packing.
Select the dimensions, enabling a custom-sized box to hold the product securely without avoidable movement caused by a standard size.
The structure, board weight, print and finish are also individually designed to suit the contents and their journey.
Printing a logo onto a stock box creates personalised packaging, representing a more modest undertaking than a completely customisable design.
With bespoke packaging, each panel, fold and finish can be tailored, even for a single run, enabling you to create packaging that fits precisely without any compromise.
Packaging formats we produce for Somerton companies
We make a full range of packaging boxes, made to custom sizes and printed in full colour using your artwork!
The best-suited box style and packaging format are based on what you sell and how it is handled, while our packaging specialists will guide you through the choices!
Commercial cartons and logoed packaging
Reverse tuck end cartons remain a well-known retail packaging choice for lighter products, such as cosmetics and supplements, with flaps that fold neatly into both the top and bottom.
Crash lock boxes are a stronger form of lock box, constructed from cardboard with a base that snaps flat upon opening, preventing heavier products from forcing the bottom out.
Shipping and electronic commerce boxes
A bespoke mailer box protects your product across the courier network, transforming delivery into an exciting part of the brand experience while increasing visibility through printing on the inside as well as the outside, not merely the outer face.
These custom printed boxes are offered with gussets, providing extra depth to hold larger items securely in place.
Keepsake boxes, solid boxes and gable-top boxes
Rigid boxes, gift boxes with magnetic closures and other branded boxes give products bought as presents the polished presentation customers anticipate, without customers needing to wrap them.
Gable boxes, with a fold up carry handle, are excellent for food gifts as well as hampers!
For premium ranges, we may choose SBS board, solid bleached sulphate and a bright, food safe paperboard, rather than standard carton stock, while foil and soft touch lamination enhance the final effect.
Design support for your Somerton organisation
Each order includes support with packaging design, irrespective of how far your artwork has progressed.
Got a logo and brand guidelines? Our design experts create print ready files, verifying that colours remain accurate on board because packaging demands higher resolution than a website image.
Previous design experience is not required to create packaging that reflects your brand. We can start with nothing more than a logo, creating the structure and professionally designed, ready to print artwork alongside you, while explaining each technical decision clearly as it comes up.
Our online tool lets you personalise a box and view its appearance before printing. Pantone colour matching maintains each repeat order consistent.
Do you need your packaging printed in both English and Welsh? Our team handles it as a standard artwork requirement, in the same way as any other language or colour change.
Personalised packaging for Somerton’s businesses
Cuisine 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.
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.
Beverages and liquor makers
Over the past two decades, Wales has developed a genuine drinks scene, from distilleries in Brecon Beacons to more recent gin and whisky producers farther north.
Bottle presentation boxes must withstand transit 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 makeup products
Cosmetic and skincare brands need cartons that protect fragile glass and compacts while looking presentable on the shelf.
We manufacture cosmetics packaging featuring soft touch lamination, foil and embossing, whereas rigid boxes give premium ranges the presence to support a higher price point.
E-commerce and subscription businesses
Retail and display packaging is key when a product is positioned in a shop or marketplace fulfilment centre, whereas subscription brands face a different evaluation.
Because the same customer opens up an nearly identical box every month, keeping a consistent finish is as important as the initial design.
High-quality e-commerce packaging, produced exactly to fit your product packaging, holds items safe in transit and lowers damage claims and returns.
Inside, a fitted insert or printed tissue keeps the product securely during transport, while the print greets the eye the moment the box opens.
For a subscription-based brand that reorders monthly, keeping consistent box dimensions maintains predictable pallet capacity and warehouse racking, becoming increasingly important as volumes exceed several hundred units.
Dispatching to Somerton from our Scottish studio
Everything is produced at our Irvine facility, with standard UK delivery to businesses in Somerton.
After proof approval, the majority of orders reach a Somerton address within two to three weeks, in line with our packaging delivery schedule across the UK.
Custom Pack Studio belongs to KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, a packaging manufacturer producing print and packaging since 1997, meaning an long-standing team creates the boxes with its own presses.
You sign off on a proof and, where required by the format, a physical sample before full production begins, while reorders keep the original artwork, ensuring larger quantities require no new preparation.
Employing a single box company for your full product range simplifies packaging.
You receive one invoice and work with one contact, steering clear of multiple suppliers quoting different prices for different weeks.
Renewable packaging as the norm
Every box we make is 100% recyclable as the board itself makes possible that recyclability.
Our board and paper are sourced from FSC and PEFC certified sources, while audits trace each sheet through the supply chain to responsibly managed forests.
Across our processes, we are reducing single use plastic and EPS foam void fill because neither is easily recyclable, while both pose disposal challenges once a parcel has been opened.
Where the design permits, biodegradable or paper-based protective materials are employed in their place.
Zero minimum purchase for Somerton enterprises
Across a large part of the industry, custom packaging demands minimum orders of 500 or 1,000 units, leaving you to finance stock and storage before ascertaining whether the product will sell.
There is no minimum order requirement at all.
Small businesses are able to order a single sample, a restricted trial run, or a full production batch once they have proved demand, with per unit pricing adjusted for each order quantity across the range.
You receive a written quotation before production begins, while the high-quality materials and packaging products provided for a run of fifty are the same as those provided for a run of ten thousand.
Before ordering in bulk, request a printed sample to check the print, colour and fit in your hand.
How to submit a personalised packaging order
Provide your brief by calling 01294 314 919 or via the online design tool, then let us know the product, quantity and about how it is sold.
Design and proof. We develop packaging designed for your product, prepare the print layout, and provide a proof for your review.
Ask for a physical sample if the format calls for one, then sign off once you are content with the colour and construction.
Production and delivery. Your order is printed and finished in Irvine, then delivered to your Somerton address, normally within two to three weeks.
Personalised packaging Somerton FAQs
Will you furnish made-to-order packaging to Somerton?
Yes. All items are manufactured in Irvine, with standard delivery throughout the UK, including every part of Somerton and throughout Wales. We make no additional charge for distance from the factory.
What the order needed for packaging at Somerton?
No minimum order is required. You can order a one box or several thousand in whatever format, with pricing adjusted according to quantity in a written quotation issued before production starts.
Which sections of the packaging can be modified?
Every aspect of the format, including size, structure, board weight, print and finish, can be adjusted, so that the packaging aligns precisely with your brief. Branded packaging may also be printed internally and externally.
Can I be sent samples of your wrapping products before making a purchase?
Yes. The sample is printed and finished to exactly the same standard as a production run, enabling you to confirm that the colours match your brief and that the board has the correct feel before authorising a bulk order.
Can the packaging become recyclable as well as will it decompose?
Each box is 100% recyclable. We do not employ plastic laminates which prevent recycling unless food safety makes them necessary, while biodegradable protective materials are offered where the format allows.
May someone submit the same design order again?
Yes, reorders use the original artwork file, meaning that increasing an order or placing it again for another season does not require the packaging to be redesigned from scratch.
