Why Food and Drink Brands Choose Custom Pack Studio

We’ve spent decades in the packaging field and have worked with nearly every type of food business you can think of.

From takeaways and bakery chains to drinks brands, ready meal manufacturers, artisan producers, and major retailers, we’ve done the lot.

Working at Kennedy Smith gave our team thorough knowledge of exactly what the food and drink industry demands.

We learned exactly what it takes to meet strict safety standards, tight deadlines, and the quality expectations of major supermarkets by working on packaging for some of Arden’s biggest brands.

We understand the specific difficulties you face because of that broad experience.

The regulations aren’t a mystery to us.

We’re well aware of the sustainability pressures.

Years of experience have shown us what works on the shelf and what doesn’t.

Food is a rapid business.

Keeping up with shifting requirements, tight delivery schedules, and the high standards your customers expect takes the right packaging supplier.

That’s exactly where Custom Pack Studio comes in.

What Is Custom Packaging

Competitive Quality Food and Drink Packaging in Scotland

We keep our prices competitive without once cutting corners on quality.

Food safety standards? Met. Performance? Precisely as it should be, on every product we deliver.

Keeping a ready meal fresh in the freezer or making a craft chocolate bar look outstanding on the shelves – our packaging handles both.

Delivery Across Scotland – Reliable Every Time

We ship across the whole of Arden and right across Scotland.

On-time delivery matters, and we know that when you need your packaging, you need it without delay.

This isn’t just a promise; it’s really how we do business every single day.

Before a busy weekend or seasonal rush, running out of packaging simply isn’t an option.

Dependable supply across Arden and Scotland is what our delivery service and Irvine location deliver.

Exceptional Service for Every Customer

Exceptional client service starts the moment you get in touch with us.

Our team works with you to find the right packaging for your product, and we explain everything in plain terms.

We don’t use confusing jargon and we don’t hide costs, you just get honest advice from people who know this industry inside out.

Packaging Solutions for Arden’s Food Businesses

Every food and drink business brings its own packaging requirements.

The packaging a high-street bakery needs is completely different from what a premium whisky brand is after.

A ready meal company has requirements that don’t match a craft coffee roaster.

We fully get that.

That’s why we don’t push a standard option on every business.

We work as your ally to find precisely what works for your product, your brand, and your budget.

Our manufacturing capabilities and machinery mean small craft runs and large-scale production are equally within reach.

Order size doesn’t change the level of service you’ll experience.

Sleeve Packaging for Food Products

In the food and drink packaging world, sleeve packaging has become really popular, and it’s easy to see why.

Three things make it work: it’s flexible, good-looking, and affordable.

Basically, a sleeve is a printed wrapper that slides over your product or its primary packaging.

If you’ve got plain boxes or containers, sleeves are perfect for adding your branding.

Your stock packaging might work brilliantly for your product, but if it’s a bit dull, that’s a missed opportunity.

One printed sleeve transforms that generic box straight away into something that screams your brand name.

For seasonal ranges or limited editions, sleeves are brilliant.

No need to commit to thousands of brand new boxes.

All you do is print sleeves with your special design and slide them over your existing packaging.

Sleeves make everything from Christmas ranges and Valentine’s gift sets to new flavour launches easy and cost-effective.

Less material than a full printed box and simple to recycle – that’s what paper sleeves offer.

Sleeves show that you’re dedicated to environmental responsibility at every stage of the manufacturing process, from label design to last bite, and customers appreciate brands that think about sustainability.

Wallet Packaging for the Food Industry

Wallet packaging sounds more complicated than it really is.

Think of it as a flat piece of card that folds neatly around your product, with tuck-in flaps or a simple closure.

Across Scotland, food businesses choose wallet packaging because it’s practical, cost-effective, and looks impressive.

Wallets are excellent for protecting products during transport and retail display.

Everything stays contained and protected from damage, and the card material stacks cleanly for both delivery and storage.

Design space? Wallets provide loads of it.

You’ve got plenty of room across those flat panels for branding, product information, ingredient lists, and anything else you need to tell your customers.

Made-to-order wallet designs that fit your specific product precisely are what we create.

There’s a difference between almost right and properly right, and we always deliver the latter.

Samples are produced so you can test before committing to a full order, and our team measures everything accurately to make sure it’s right.

How We Work With You on Quality Packaging

Our process works for everyone: intuitive for beginners, powerful enough for experienced users.

Whatever your experience level, from first product launch to experienced brand management, we’ve got options that fit how you like to work.

Expert Design Help

After a bit of design support?

Years of experience and expert ability come from the professional graphic designers we’re connected with.

If you’re not sure what your packaging should look like, or you want to ensure everything is perfect, our design contacts can guide you through the full process.

What catches customers’ eyes on the shelves? They know, because they understand food packaging inside out.

Bring Your Own Design

Already know exactly what you want, or have an existing design from a different designer?

With our straightforward ordering process, your ideas come to life efficiently.

Supply your artwork and our team handles the rest, making sure it works properly with your chosen packaging format.

We’ll handle the technical side while you stay in control of the creative decisions.

Start With Templates

Not sure where to begin?

A range of professionally designed templates is ready to get you going.

You won’t find generic designs that look like every other packaging here.

People who understand the food and drink industry and know what quality looks and feels like created these templates as proper starting points.

You pick a template, customise it with your brand colours and details, and that’s professional packaging sorted without starting from scratch.

A few words from Custom Pack Managing Director, Joni Tan:

“One thing I delight in hearing after a meeting is ‘well, that was easy.’

Every product deserves to be presented well, whatever stage you’re at. Whether you want to talk it through with us or just jump straight into our online design tool and do it yourself, we’ve made sure there’s a straightforward route in for every kind of business.

No minimums, no hidden costs, no hoops to jump through. Custom Pack simply offers great packaging, made right here in Scotland.”
