Here’s why you should pick bespoke packaging
A standard box leaves room around the product, enabling it to rattle in transit until foam or paper is added to prevent movement.
Conventional packaging with a label affixed to its side might be convenient, yet it is intended for no particular audience.
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 make custom boxes, mailer boxes, gift packaging and printed accessories for businesses across Stansty and the valleys beyond. Orders can be as small as one sample or as large as a pallet delivered directly to your warehouse door!
You can order any quantity of what we make, so stock and storage expenses remain unnecessary until you have confirmed that a product sells.
Tell us about your packaging requirements, and we will adapt the recommendation to fit the product itself.
What bespoke packaging indicates
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, ensuring a made-to-measure box keeps the product secure rather than allowing it to rattle within excess space created by a standard size.
Every aspect, including the construction, board weight, printing and finish, is adapted to the contents and the way they are transported.
Printing a logo on a stock box creates personalised packaging, needing less work than a completely customisable design.
With bespoke packaging, every panel, fold and finish can be adjusted, even for just one unit, enabling you to create custom packaging that fits exactly.
Packaging styles we create for Stansty companies
We supply an comprehensive range of packaging boxes, made to custom dimensions and printed in full colour with your artwork.
The ideal box design and packaging format are based on what you sell and the way it is handled, while our packaging specialists will guide you through the choices!
Commercial containers and logo packaging
Reverse tuck end cartons are a common retail packaging option, suitable for lighter products such as cosmetics and supplements, with closure flaps folding into both the top and bottom.
Crash lock boxes are a sturdier kind of lock box, formed from cardboard and having a base that snaps flat when opened, preventing heavier products from forcing the bottom out.
Delivery and internet shopping boxes
A custom mailer box safeguards your product across the courier network, while turning delivery into an extension of the brand experience and boosting visibility by printing on both its interior and exterior, not solely its outer face.
These custom printed boxes are available as well with gussets, providing additional depth so bulkier items can rest securely without shifting.
Present boxes, rigid boxes and gable boxes
Rigid boxes, magnetic closure gift boxes and other branded packaging provide gifts with the presentation customers anticipate, without requiring them to wrap anything themselves.
Gable boxes, including a fold up carry handle, are well suited to food gifts and hampers.
For premium lines, we may select 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.
Build aid for your Stansty enterprise
Every order comes with packaging design assistance, regardless of how far your artwork has progressed.
If you have a logo and brand guidelines, our design experts prepare print-ready files and check that colours stay accurate on board, because packaging needs greater resolution than a website image.
You do not need prior design experience to create packaging that represents your brand. Our team can start with a logo alone, establish the structure and produce professionally designed artwork ready for print in collaboration with you, explaining each technical decision when it arises.
Our online tool allows you to customise a box and preview its look before printing. Pantone colour matching maintains each repeat order consistent.
If packaging is needed in both English and Welsh, our team treats this as a standard artwork requirement, handling it precisely as it would any other language or colour change.
Tailored packaging for Stansty’s own industries
Nourishment and beverages
Welsh Lamb and Welsh Beef both hold Protected Geographical Indication status, while food packaging contacting meat or dairy must comply with food contact standards, regardless of where it is produced on either side of the border.
We have BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, ensuring our food packaging is made in controlled, traceable conditions reviewed by retailers prior to stocking products onto their shelves.
Drinks and distilling establishments
Over the past two decades, Wales has established a genuine drinks scene, from distilleries in Brecon Beacons to more recent gin and whisky producers further north.
Bottle presentation boxes need to withstand transit and appear smart on the shelf as well! Finishes including foil stamping and embossing provide much of the impact for a limited release or seasonal gift set.
Beauty products and self-care
Cosmetic and skincare brands need cartons that protect fragile glass and compacts whilst presenting well on the shelf.
We create cosmetics packaging using soft touch lamination, foil and embossing, while rigid boxes make a premium range feel worthy of its higher price point.
Online commerce and membership brands
Packaging intended for retail shelves or marketplace fulfilment centres is significant, however, subscription brands encounter a specific challenge.
Each month, the same customer returns to an nearly identical box, making a reliable finish just as important as the original design.
High-grade e-commerce packaging, made precisely to fit your product packaging, keeps items secure in transit and reduces damage claims and returns.
A tailored insert or printed tissue secures the product during transit, while ensuring the print remains visible straight away when the box opens.
Subscription-based brands that reorder each month can maintain pallet space and warehouse racking consistent by retaining one box size. This becomes increasingly important when order volumes rise above several hundred units.
Sending to Stansty from our Scottish factory
All products are manufactured within our Irvine facility, with standard UK delivery to businesses in Stansty.
After proof approval, deliveries to a Stansty address typically arrive within two to three weeks, following the timetable for all our packaging throughout the UK.
Custom Pack Studio belongs to KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, an established packaging manufacturer that has been producing print and packaging since 1997, with its experienced team producing boxes on its own presses.
You sign off on a proof and, where required by the format, a physical sample before full production begins, while reorders retain the original artwork, meaning larger quantities require no new preparation.
Using a sole box company for packaging across your entire product range makes the process straightforward.
Everything passes through one invoice and a single point of contact, sparing you the frustration of chasing several suppliers quoting varying prices for separate weeks.
Environmentally friendly packaging as routine
Every box we produce is fully recyclable, with that recyclability rooted in the board itself.
We source our board and paper from FSC and PEFC certified suppliers, with every sheet traced through an audited chain of custody to responsibly managed forests.
We are minimising single use plastic and EPS foam void fill across our processes because neither can be readily recycled, and both cause disposal difficulties once a parcel has been opened.
Where the design allows, biodegradable or paper-based protection is utilised in their place.
No minimum purchase for Stansty firms
Across the industry, custom packaging commonly requires minimum orders of 500 or 1,000 units, leaving you to finance stock and storage before finding out whether your product will sell.
There is no requirement for a minimum order .
Smaller businesses can select a single sample, a brief trial run, or a full production run after demand is proven, with per-unit pricing scaling across each quantity in between.
You will always receive a written quote before production begins, while the high quality materials and packaging products supplied for a run of fifty are identical to those provided for a run of ten thousand.
Before placing a large order, ask for a physical sample to evaluate its printing, colour and how it fits in your hand.

Custom boxing Stansty Common Questions
Do deliver bespoke packaging to Stansty?
Yes. We produce every product in Irvine, and then deliver throughout the UK as standard, reaching each corner of Stansty and all of Wales without adding a additional charge because the destination is further away from our factory.

There is no minimum order. Whether you require one box or several thousand in whatever format, you will receive quantity based pricing via a written quote before production begins.
Which packing components can I personalise?
Each format allows adjustments to size, structure, board weight, print and finish, ensuring the packaging matches your brief precisely. Branded packaging can additionally be printed on both the inside and exterior.
Can you possibly send demonstrations of your packaging solutions products before I go ahead and place an order?
Yes. You get a sample printed and finished exactly as it would be in production, enabling you to check that the colours meet your brief and the board feels suitable before authorising a bulk order.
Might the packaging prove to be recyclable as well as can it also be biodegradable?
Each box is completely recyclable. We steer clear of plastic laminates that prevent recycling, unless food safety makes them necessary, while biodegradable protective materials are provided wherever the format permits.
Can we purchase again the same design in the future?
Certainly! Repeat orders utilise the original artwork file, which means you can increase an order or repeat the order for a new season without redesigning the packaging from scratch.
