What custom packaging means
Our custom-made packaging is meticulously designed to house a certain item, giving you the option to pick the measurements, the configuration, the graphics and the final coating.
Modifying a ready-made carton with a printed brand mark poses a contrasting and far more restricted undertaking.
By choosing our bespoke packaging, you will receive customised casing dimensions tailored to your item, relevant board durability picked for its intended journey, and personalised printing over your preferred surfaces.
We create the packaging carefully around the product from the very first stage.
Custom Pack Studio supports food manufacturers, cosmetics companies, internet retailers and artisan distillers throughout Stockethill.
The custom packaging we make
We produce an wide selection of packaging styles, which are all adapted to your custom dimensions and completely printed with your artwork.
Determining the best-fitting template for your merchandise rests solely upon its inherent nature, the sales channels, and the logistics of final delivery, all of which our specialists will guide you through selecting.
Folding cartons
Traditional shop packaging typically utilises the common types of reverse tuck-end boxes and crash-lock bottom boxes.
Designed with top-and-bottom closure flaps that insert in opposite directions, the reverse tuck-end carton offers an effective packaging solution for lightweight products, such as cosmetics and dietary supplements.
Engineered with a base that automatically and securely secures itself upon expansion, the crash-lock box reliably supports substantial items to prevent possible structural failure, whilst both styles are delivered flat and can be fully constructed in just a few moments.
Postal and mailer boxes
For e-commerce merchants, a custom-made mailing carton safeguards your merchandise whilst undergoing transit and enhances the unboxing experience into a important element of your marketing.
Who likes dull brown parcels? Double-sided printed mailer boxes offer e-commerce shoppers an impressive unboxing experience, plus they are robust enough to readily survive the post!
We additionally make gusseted e-commerce boxes, which perfectly house items requiring a greater or adjustable fit.
Sleeves and wallets
These slip on sleeves cover your goods or internal tray to deliver quick branding whilst maintaining your existing packaging, offering an effective and cost-effective solution for promotional ranges and short-term stock.
Enveloping the contents like a refined portfolio, this wallet-style packaging opens out to present a cleanly flat and sophisticated showcase that is ideal for showcasing brochures, photographs and slender merchandise.
Gift boxes and presentation packaging
To raise items purchased as gift items, employing bespoke gift packaging provides the premium finish your customers expects while taking away the stress of wrapping.
Sturdy rigid boxes, magnetic closure packaging and specially printed inserts are extremely effective for this application, whilst elegant embellishments such as hot foil blocking, embossing and tactile soft-touch lamination elevate the presentation to premium packaging that clearly justifies a premium price tag.
Packaging design support if you do not have a designer
We integrate design support into our service, accepting your artwork at any stage of creation.
On receipt of your established corporate guidelines and production-ready designs, we will diligently tailor our processes to these specifications and prepare your assets for ultimate manufacture.
When a brand mark is sent in a JPEG or alternative image format, we meticulously reproduce it for production requirements because printed packaging demands a significantly greater level of visual clarity than a digital platform demands.
From your very first flash of inspiration, our committed team shapes bespoke box structures and flawless print-ready artwork, developing custom sizes when no standard box fits. Your ideas direct our approach. We outline the key technicalities, from board weight to print resolution, as we create.
Alternatively, you may employ our virtual design software to customise a container and incorporate your bespoke branding prior to contacting us, or arrange a tailored meeting should you would like to discuss your requirements beforehand.
Custom packaging for Stockethill’s industries
We produce bespoke packaging for beverage businesses, food brands, cosmetic brands and online retailers throughout Stockethill.
Each industry sets its own criteria, whether it is safety in food contact to the exquisite finish a high-end carton requires.
Food and drink
In the broad and highly competitive food and drink sector of Scotland, packaging must satisfy rigorous safety standards for direct product contact while at the same time drawing visual interest on the retail shelf.
As a company holding the prestigious BRC Global Packaging accreditation at High Hygiene level, we make our food containers within meticulously regulated and completely auditable environments which supermarkets inspect prior to authorising any merchandise.
Whisky and craft spirits
Our business manufactures bespoke printed bottle cartons alongside premium presentation boxes tailored specifically for independent spirit producers and Stockethill distilleries, incorporating sophisticated embellishments like foil decoration, raised embossing, and luxurious soft touch lamination.
By removing minimum order requirements, our method enables a distillery to produce a small batch for a boutique release without the need of buying bulk quantities.
Cosmetics and beauty
Seeking showstopping packaging? We create printed cartons for skincare, haircare and beauty brands, featuring eye-catching soft-touch lamination, foil and embossing!
Make-up product displays demands the meticulous safeguarding of delicate glass and pressed powders while simultaneously commanding attention on store shelving, a double responsibility primarily achieved through the use of durable surface coatings.
E-commerce and subscription brands
We help online sellers and recurring order brands by thoughtfully designing custom mailer boxes, printed tissue paper and fitted inserts.
Tailored packaging secures the item from transport hazards while reducing the expense of breakage and replacements.

Sustainable packaging as standard
Each unit we make stays entirely appropriate for recycling, and this eco-friendly feature derives directly from the make-up of the board itself.
We obtain all of our paper and board only from FSC and PEFC certified origins, making sure that each individual sheet is completely traceable through a rigorously audited chain of custody directly back to responsibly managed forests.
Relied on to shield mailer and shipping formats, corrugated board provides robust, reliable protection, standing tall as one of the UK’s most commonly recycled packaging materials.
We are steadily removing single-use plastic and expanded polystyrene from our operations because these materials present severe recyclability challenges and create significant environmental damage once discarded.
Why not swap to eco-friendly, paper-based shielding choices and completely design out waste wherever your scheme permits?
Order one box or ten thousand
