When a product arrives damaged, the customer doesn’t just ask for a refund. They photograph the crushed corner, the split seam, the dented panel, and they post it somewhere.
A shipping box that fails in transit costs you the replacement, the return label, and sometimes the customer.
Don’t let a damaged box damage your reputation.
Most of the time, the box was the wrong size for the product, the wrong board weight for the courier network, or a generic stock box that was never designed to protect your products in the first place.
Custom Pack Studio’s custom cardboard shipping boxes can fix this.
What are custom shipping boxes?
Custom shipping boxes are corrugated cardboard boxes made to your specific product dimensions, printed with your logo and brand identity.
It is specially built to the board specification to help your products arrive in perfect condition.
A stock cardboard box is a generic size from a catalogue.
A custom box is designed around your product, so the fit is snug, the board weight is matched to the transit risk, and your branding is on the outside rather than a plain brown carton.
Whether you are shipping something small, big, light, or fragile, we can help you find the perfect custom packaging for your product.
Corrugated cardboard box styles
Corrugated cardboard gets its strength from a fluted inner layer sandwiched between two flat board faces.
The type of cardboard, the wall count, and the box style all affect how the box performs in transit. We produce custom cardboard boxes across the main corrugated styles.
Single wall and double wall custom boxes for extra protection
Your shipping boxes’ main job is to protect your products during transit.
Our team will take the time to understand your product to guide you through whether single wall protection is sufficient or if you need the added layer of protection from our high-quality double wall cardboard.
Postal boxes and mailer boxes
For smaller products sent directly to consumers, our postal boxes and mailer boxes are available in custom sizes compatible with Royal Mail and courier services.
These boxes are designed to assemble without tape on most styles, which speeds up the packing station and keeps the exterior clean.
Small cardboard mailer boxes built to Royal Mail large letter and small parcel dimensions help keep mailing costs predictable across your order volume.
We build these to your exact size so the product sits correctly inside, rather than rattling around in a box that’s nominally the right weight band but the wrong shape.
Custom sized boxes for awkward products
Some products don’t fit standard box sizes well.
A tall, narrow product, an irregular shape, or a product that needs a specific internal layout to stay safe during transit needs a box that starts from the product rather than a size chart.
Whatever the size and shape, we help produce bespoke sizes across all our corrugated box styles.
Keep your products tight and secure during the delivery process with Custom Pack Studio.
Brand your corrugated shipping boxes with custom printing
A plain brown corrugated box does one job. But a custom printed box does the job and reinforces your brand every time it lands on a doorstep.
Custom packaging in every colour
Our custom shipping boxes are printed in full-colour with your logo, brand colours, and any design you want on the exterior panels.
Full colour printing means your boxes are visually appealing and carry a polished look, whether they’re going to a single consumer or filling a wholesale pallet.
Box solutions that match your brand’s identity
If you prefer the natural kraft aesthetic, uncoated brown board is available across our box range.
This can be perfect for food brands, artisan producers, and businesses where the unprinted look is part of the brand identity.
You can add a logo stamp or a one-colour print to natural kraft board without moving to full colour if that suits your aesthetic.
Interior printing solutions
Make an impact straight from arrival with interior printing.
By incorporating a brand message, thank-you note, or repeat purchase prompt on opening, you turn a functional box into a memorable unboxing experience.
Our design team is on hand to help you get the most from the space inside your box.
Sustainable cardboard shipping boxes
All our corrugated packaging boxes are made from recyclable materials.
The board contains recycled content, comes from FSC and PEFC certified sources, and is accepted in standard kerbside recycling collections across the UK to help reduce carbon footprint even more.
Your customers notice the choices you make in packaging.
Choosing recyclable, plastic-free shipping materials sends a clear message about your brand’s values before the product is even unwrapped.
No minimum order for custom shipping boxes
Large cardboard box companies require minimum order quantities that suit their machinery, not your business.
Low minimum order quantities are what most growing businesses need, particularly when launching a new product, testing a new box specification, or managing stock control across several product lines without tying up warehouse space in boxes you haven’t used yet.
Custom Pack Studio is proud to have no minimum order on any of our custom shipping boxes.
Boxes are available in bulk when your volumes support it, and every reorder uses the same approved artwork without any repeat setup cost.
Stock control becomes simpler when your box supplier can match your order cadence rather than dictating it.
