For what reason decide on bespoke packaging
A regular box leaves unfilled space around the product, enabling it to rattle in transit until foam or paper is inserted to stop movement.
Standard packaging with a side sticker is the simplest route, but it serves no specific customer.
Custom Pack Studio makes custom-made packaging for your product, making sure that the box, print and finish complement your brand rather than overshadowing it.
We manufacture bespoke boxes, mailer boxes, gift packaging and printed accessories for businesses throughout Treharris and the surrounding valleys, with orders spanning one sample to a complete pallet delivered straight to a warehouse door.
Nothing we produce needs a minimum order, allowing you to set stock and storage costs aside until a product has shown that it sells.
Share your packaging requirements, and we will tailor the recommendation to the product itself.
What bespoke packaging implies
With custom packaging, your box is designed around the product from day one, so its dimensions and print fit precisely what you are packing.
You select the measurements, allowing a custom-sized box to hold the product firmly without movement resulting from excess space in a standard size.
The structure, board weight, print and finish are tailored to match what is packed and how it travels.
Printing your logo on a stock box creates personalised packaging, involving less work than a entirely customisable design.
With customised packaging, each panel, fold and finish can be customised, even for one run, allowing you to create packaging that fits precisely without any compromise.
Package options we craft for Treharris firms
We make a full range of packaging boxes, each manufactured to bespoke sizes and printed in full colour with your artwork.
Selecting the appropriate style of box and packaging format is dependent on your products and the way they are handled. Our packaging specialists will guide you through the available choices.
Shop cartons and marked packaging
Reverse tuck end cartons are a conventional retail packaging format for less heavy products, such as cosmetics and supplements, with flaps that tuck into place at the top and bottom alike.
Crash lock boxes are a stronger form of lock box, made from cardboard with a base that snaps flat upon opening, stopping heavier products from forcing the bottom out.
Parcel and online retail boxes
A custom mailer box safeguards your product throughout the courier network, while turning delivery into part of the brand experience and strengthening visibility as it is printed inside and out, not solely across the outer face.
Gusseted versions of these custom printed boxes create extra depth, giving bulkier items room to sit securely.
Keepsake boxes, solid boxes and gable boxes
Rigid boxes, magnetic close gift boxes and additional branded boxes provide products purchased as gifts the refined presentation customers anticipate, whilst sparing them the effort of wrapping.
Gable boxes, featuring a fold up carry handle, are well suited to food presents and hampers.
For premium ranges, we occasionally specify SBS board, solid bleached sulphate, a bright, food-safe paperboard, instead of standard carton stock. Finishes including foil and soft touch lamination enhance the overall effect.
Design guidance for your Treharris identity
Every order includes packaging design support, irrespective of how far your artwork has progressed.
Have a logo and brand guidelines? Our design experts create print ready files, verifying that colours stay accurate on board because packaging requires higher resolution than a website image.
You do not need experience in design to create packaging that fits your brand. Our team can start with only a logo. Together, they develop the structure and professionally produced print ready artwork, while guiding you through each technical decision along the way.
Our online tool allows you to customise a box and preview its appearance on screen before printing, while Pantone colour matching maintains consistency whenever you make a repeat order.
If you need packaging produced in both English and Welsh, our team treats it as a standard artwork requirement, in the same way as any other language or colour change.
Bespoke packaging for the Treharris’s industries
Food and drink
Welsh Lamb and Welsh Beef both have Protected Geographical Indication status, and all food packaging that comes into contact with meat or dairy must comply with food contact standards, regardless of which side of the border it is made on.
We have BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level, confirming our food packaging is made in controlled, traceable conditions that retailers review before stocking products onto their shelves.
Refreshments and spirit-making
During the last two decades, Wales has developed a genuine drinks scene, spanning Brecon Beacons distilleries and newer gin and whisky producers throughout the north.
Bottle presentation boxes must withstand transport while preserving their shelf appeal, with finishes such as foil stamping and embossing providing much of the impact for a limited release or seasonal gift set.
Cosmetics and personal care
Cosmetic and skincare brands require cartons that protect delicate glass containers and compacts, whilst providing an appealing display on retail shelves.
We manufacture cosmetics packaging featuring soft touch lamination, foil and embossing, while rigid boxes complement a premium range that needs to support a higher price point.
E-commerce and membership labels
Packaging intended for retail shelves or marketplace fulfilment centres is significant, but, subscription brands experience a distinct challenge.
Each month, the same customer opens an almost identical box, making a uniform finish every bit as important as the initial design.
Packaging created to match your product’s precise dimensions keeps items secure during transit, lowering damage claims and returns from ecommerce orders.
Inside, a fitted insert or printed tissue holds the product securely during transit, while the print greets the eye the moment the box opens.
For a subscription brand that places monthly reorders, using identical box dimensions keeps pallet space and warehouse racking predictable, an ever more valuable advantage once volumes exceed a few hundred units.
Delivering to Treharris from our Scotland facility
Everything is produced at our Irvine facility, with UK delivery to businesses in Treharris supplied as standard.
After your proof is approved, most orders arrive at a Treharris address within two to three weeks, corresponding to the delivery timeframe for our packaging throughout the UK.
Custom Pack Studio belongs to KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, an established packaging manufacturer printing and producing print and packaging since 1997. Its seasoned team produces the boxes using its own presses!
You get a proof and, where required by the format, a physical sample before full production starts. Reorders use the same artwork, allowing you to scale up without restarting the process from the beginning.
Employing a single box company for packaging throughout your whole product range makes the process straightforward.
You receive one invoice and work through a single point of contact, rather than pursuing several suppliers, each offering different prices for separate weeks.
Renewable packaging as expected
Every box we produce is 100% recyclable because the board itself makes possible that recyclability.
Our board and paper begin with FSC and PEFC certified sources, while each sheet is traced through an audited supply chain to responsibly managed forests.
We are cutting down on single use plastic and EPS foam void fill throughout our processes as neither is readily recyclable, causing disposal difficulties after a parcel is opened.
Where the design permits, biodegradable or paper-based protective materials are employed in their place.
Not any minimum purchase for Treharris companies.
Throughout much of the industry, custom packaging requires minimum orders of 500 or 1,000 units, obliging you to finance stock and storage prior to determining whether a product will sell.
We have no minimum order whatsoever.
Small businesses may order a one sample, limited runs for testing, or a complete production run once demand has been established, with the unit price varying according to the quantity ordered.
Prior to production starts, you will always be sent a written quote. The high quality materials and packaging products provided for a run of fifty are identical to those supplied for a run of ten thousand.
Prior to placing a large order, get a printed sample to assess its print, colour and its fit in your hand.

Personalised packaging Treharris Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer specialised packaging to Treharris?
Indeed! We manufacture everything in Irvine and deliver across the UK by default, including every part of Treharris and across Wales, with no additional charge simply because you are farther from the factory.
What the least order to place packaging in Treharris?
No minimum order is required. You can order a one box or several thousand in whatever format, with pricing scaled to quantity in a written quote provided before production starts.
Which packing components can I modify?
Every format gives you complete flexibility to alter the size, structure, board weight, print and finish, making sure the resulting packaging meets your brief exactly. Your branded packaging order can also be printed on the inside as well as the outside.
Can you offer packaging product samples before we submit an order?
Absolutely! Your sample is delivered printed and finished exactly as it would be in production, enabling you to verify the colours satisfy your brief and ensure the board feels right before approving a bulk order.
Is the container recyclable and environmentally friendly?
All packaging boxes are fully recyclable. We exclude plastic laminates that prevent recycling, except where food safety makes them necessary, while biodegradable protective materials are made available when the format allows.
Can someone place another order for the same layout later?
Yes, reorders are made from the same artwork file, so increasing an order or placing it again for a new season never requires the packaging to be redesigned from the beginning.
