Why select personalised packs
A conventional box has space around the product, letting it to rattle during transport until somebody fills the space with foam or paper to hold it still.
Standard packaging with a label affixed to its side may be convenient, yet it is designed for no particular audience.
Custom Pack Studio produces bespoke packaging tailored to your product, making sure the box, print and finish support your brand rather than overshadowing it.
We make custom boxes, mailer boxes, gift packaging and printed accessories for companies throughout Treherbert and the surrounding valleys, with orders varying from a single sample to a pallet load delivered directly to a warehouse door.
We have no minimum order requirement for any item we produce, enabling you to avoid stock and storage costs until a product’s sales potential is established.
Share your packaging requirements, and we’ll tailor the recommendation to fit the product itself.
What bespoke packaging signifies
Custom packaging starts with your product, with the box dimensions and print specification designed to suit exactly what you are packing.
By choosing the dimensions, you ensure that a custom sized box secures the product firmly, rather than letting it to rattle within the unnecessary space of a standard size.
Each element, ranging from the structure and board weight to the print and finish, is customised for the contents and their journey.
Adding a logo to a stock box creates personalised packaging, offering a less ambitious project than fully customisable design.
With bespoke packaging, each panel, fold and finish can be customised, even for a single item, enabling you to create packaging that fits precisely and without compromise.
Packaging options we create for Treherbert enterprises
We manufacture a comprehensive range of packaging boxes, each produced to custom dimensions and printed in full colour using your artwork.
Choosing the suitable style of box and packaging format depends on your products and how they are handled. Our packaging specialists will talk you through the available choices.
Store cartons and bespoke branded packaging
Reverse tuck end cartons are a favourite in retail packaging, well suited for lighter products like cosmetics and supplements, with flaps that tuck in at both the upper end and bottom.
Crash lock boxes are a more robust type of lock box, constructed from cardboard with a base that snaps flat when opened, meaning that heavier products cannot force the bottom out.
Parcel and digital commerce boxes
A custom mailer box protects your product across the courier network, turning delivery into an exciting part of the brand experience while increasing visibility by printing on both the inside and outside, rather than just the outer face.
Gusseted variants of these custom printed boxes provide additional depth, allowing bulkier items space to rest securely.
Keepsake boxes, solid boxes and roof-shaped boxes
Rigid boxes, gift boxes with magnetic closures and additional branded boxes provide presents with refined presentation customers expect, without requiring them to wrap anything themselves.
Gable boxes featuring collapsible carry handles 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, over standard carton stock, while foil and soft touch lamination improve the finished effect.
Build support for your Treherbert company.
We provide packaging design support with every order, regardless of your artwork’s current stage.
If you’ve got a logo and brand guidelines, our design experts create print-ready files and confirm that colours are reproduced correctly on board, as packaging requires greater resolution than website imagery.
You do not need experience in design to create packaging that fits your brand. Our team can start with only a logo. Together, they create the structure and expertly crafted print ready artwork, while guiding you through every technical decision throughout the process.
Our online tool allows you to customise a box and view its appearance before printing. Pantone colour matching keeps each repeat order consistent.
When your packaging needs English and Welsh text, our team handles this as a routine artwork request, just as we would manage any other language or colour amendment.
Tailored packaging for the Treherbert’s enterprises
Cuisine and beverages
Welsh Lamb and Welsh Beef each hold Protected Geographical Indication status, while packaging that contacts meat or dairy must satisfy food contact standards, regardless of which side of the border it is made on.
Our BRC Global Packaging certification at High Hygiene level verifies that food packaging is manufactured within controlled, traceable processes, meeting the checks retailers conduct before approving products for listing.
Beverages and distilleries
Over the last two decades, Wales has built a real drinks scene, encompassing Brecon Beacons distilleries and more recent gin and whisky producers across the north.
Bottle presentation boxes must withstand transit and appear smart on the shelf as well! Finishes such as foil stamping and embossing deliver much of the impact for a limited release or seasonal gift set.
Skincare goods and grooming of the Treherbert
Cosmetics and skincare companies require cartons that safeguard delicate glass packaging and compacts while presenting an appealing appearance on the shelf.
We create cosmetics packaging with soft touch lamination, foil and embossing, whereas rigid boxes pair with premium ranges designed to support a higher price point.
Internet commerce and membership labels
Retail ready and display packaging are important when products sit in shops or marketplace fulfilment centres, while subscription brands encounter a distinct challenge.
Each month, the same customer opens an almost identical box, rendering a uniform finish just as important as the original design.
Accurately sized e commerce packaging holds products securely in transit, helping to prevent damage, reduce claims and minimise returns.
A fitted insert or printed tissue keeps the product secure in transit, while the print remains visible once the box is opened.
For a subscription brand placing repeat orders monthly, keeping consistent box dimensions makes pallet space and warehouse racking consistent, an increasingly important factor as volumes surpass a few hundred units.
Delivering to Treherbert from our Scotland atelier
Everything is made at our Irvine facility, with UK delivery to businesses in Treherbert provided as standard.
Following proof approval, the majority of orders reach a Treherbert address within two to three weeks, in line with our packaging delivery schedule across the UK.
Custom Pack Studio is part of KennedySmith (Press) Ltd, a packaging manufacturer producing print and packaging since 1997. Its long-standing team makes the boxes on its own presses.
You receive a proof and, where the format requires it, a physical sample prior to full production begins. Reorders retain the same artwork, so scaling up never requires again.
Using a one box company for packaging throughout your whole product range streamlines the process.
You get one invoice and deal with one contact, steering clear of multiple suppliers quoting different prices for different weeks.
Eco-friendly packaging as commonplace
Each box we make is 100% recyclable because its board is recyclable.
Our board and paper are obtained from FSC and PEFC certified suppliers, where each sheet traced via an audited supply chain to responsibly managed forests.
We are cutting back on single use plastic and EPS foam void fill throughout our processes, as neither material is readily recyclable and both create disposal difficulties after a parcel has been opened.
Where the design allows, biodegradable or paper-based protection is used instead.
There is no minimum purchase for Treherbert companies.
Across the industry, custom packaging commonly requires minimum orders of 500 or 1,000 units, requiring you to finance stock and storage before finding out if your product will sell.
There is no minimum order requirement.
Small businesses may order a single sample, commission a limited trial run, or move on to full production once demand is established, with unit pricing scaling at each quantity across this range.
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 supplied for a run of ten thousand.
Before placing a large order, obtain a printed sample to assess its print, colour and how it fits in your hand.

Custom boxing Treherbert Frequently Asked Questions
Will you offer custom packaging to Treherbert?
Yes. We manufacture all items in Irvine and provide standard delivery throughout the UK, including every part of Treherbert and Wales, without an extra charge simply because of the distance from our factory.
What the smallest order to make packaging with Treherbert?
No minimum order requirement applies. You can ask for one box or several thousand in whatever format, with pricing adjusted according to quantity in a written quote provided before production begins.
Which wrapping features can I tailor?
Every format gives you complete freedom to alter the size, structure, board weight, print and finish, making sure the resulting packaging meets your brief precisely. Your branded packaging order can also be printed on the interior as well as the exterior.
Can you please send demonstrations of your packaging solutions products before I go ahead and place an order?
Yes. The sample is printed and finished to precisely the same standard as a production run, enabling you to confirm that the colours match your brief and that the board has the right feel before authorising a bulk order.
Could the packaging prove to be recyclable and can it turn out to be biodegradable?
Every packaging box is fully recyclable. We omit plastic laminates that prevent recycling, except where food safety requires them, while biodegradable protective materials are offered when the format allows.
May someone make the same design order again?
Certainly, reorders use the original artwork file, enabling you to add to an order or get ready for another season without redesigning the packaging.
