As an independent packaging partner based right here in Barrhead, we offer custom solutions for food businesses of every size, from local takeaways and bakery start-ups to larger brands with Scotland-wide distribution and beyond.
Why are we a cut above?
The answer is simple: we pay attention.
From craft producers launching their first product to well-known brands looking for specialist packaging, every client gets treated the same manner.
Your packaging needs, your brand, and what matters most to your company are all things our team takes proper time to understand.
Every item in our huge product range meets the highest standards of food safety, sustainability, and compliance, backed by our BRC Global Packaging (High Hygiene), ISO 14001, and FSC/PEFC accreditation.
Why Food Businesses Choose Custom Pack Studio
Nearly every type of food business you can name has worked with us, backed by our decades in the packaging industry.
Bakery chains, takeaways, drinks brands, ready meal manufacturers, artisan producers, major retailers – we’ve done the full range.
Kennedy Smith is where our team built deep knowledge of what the food and drink industry demands.
We worked on packaging for some of Barrhead’s biggest brands and learned precisely what it takes to meet rigorous safety standards, tight deadlines, and the quality expectations of major supermarkets.
The specific pressures you face aren’t new to us, and that wide-ranging experience is why.
We’re across all the requirements.
The sustainability issues your business faces, we understand them fully.
Years of experience have shown us what works on the shop floor and what doesn’t.
The food sector moves at pace.
A packaging supplier that keeps up with changing requirements, tight delivery timelines, and the high standards your customers demand is what you need.
And that’s where we come in.
Quality Food Packaging Scotland at Rates That Work
We offer competitive prices without cutting corners on quality.
Food safety standards? Met. Performance? Precisely as it should be, on every product we supply.
Whether it’s keeping ready meals fresh in the freezer or making craft chocolate bars look fantastic on the shelf, our packaging delivers.
Consistent Delivery
We cover all of Barrhead with our delivery service, and it extends right across Scotland.
Timing matters, and we know that when you need packaging, you need it when promised.
That’s not just a claim, it’s how we do business every single day.
The last thing you need is to run out of packaging right before a busy weekend or seasonal rush.
Dependable supply across Barrhead and Scotland is what our delivery service and Irvine hub guarantee.
Our First-Class Customer Service
Our exceptional client service kicks in the moment you make your first call.
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 industry speak and we don’t hide costs, you just get honest advice from people who know this sector inside out.
Packaging Solutions for Barrhead’s Food Businesses
No two food and drink businesses have the same packaging requirements.
Compare a high-street bakery to a premium whisky brand, and you’ll see completely different packaging needs.
The requirements of a ready meal producer don’t match those of a craft coffee roaster.
We understand that.
We don’t push a standard solution on everyone, and that’s the point.
Instead, we work as your ally to find precisely what works for your product, your brand, and your budget.
Small craft runs and large-scale production are both well within our machinery and manufacturing capacity.
Order volume doesn’t change the level of service you’ll receive.
Food Sleeve Packaging
It’s no surprise that sleeve packaging has become extremely popular in food and drink packaging.
It’s versatile, attention-grabbing, and great value.
In plain terms, a sleeve is a printed wrapper that slides over your product or its primary packaging.
For adding branding to plain boxes or containers, sleeves are the perfect option.
You might have stock packaging that’s totally functional but a bit plain to look at.
A printed sleeve transforms it right away, turning a generic box into something that screams your brand name.
If you’re running seasonal ranges or limited editions, sleeves are a ideal choice.
No need to buy thousands of brand new boxes.
Just 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 straightforward and budget-friendly.
Less material than a full printed box and straightforward to recycle – that’s what paper sleeves give you.
Customers value brands that think about sustainability, and sleeves show that you’re serious about your environmental responsibilities at all stages of the manufacturing process, from label design to last mouthful.
Food Industry Wallet Packaging
The name might imply something complex, but wallet packaging is actually simple.
A flat piece of card, tuck-in flaps or a simple closure, and it folds neatly around your product.
Why do food businesses across Scotland choose wallet packaging? Because it’s practical, great value, and looks fantastic.
Product protection during transport and retail display is where wallets really excel.
Everything stays together and protected from damage, and the card material stacks neatly for both delivery and storage.
Loads of design space comes as standard with wallet packaging.
All those flat panels mean plenty of room for your branding, product information, ingredient lists, and anything else you need to get across to customers.
We produce tailored wallets that fit your specific product exactly.
Nearly right isn’t good enough – we go for actually right.
Before you commit to a full order, our team measures everything accurately and produces samples for you to test.
