Right here in Central, we’re an independent packaging partner that provides tailored solutions for food businesses at every stage, from local takeaways and bakery start-ups to established food businesses distributing across Scotland and beyond.

So what makes us unique?

We pay attention, and we mean it.

Whether you’re a craft producer launching your first product or a premium brand in need of specialist packaging, we treat every client the same way.

Our team takes the time to understand your packaging requirements, your brand, and what matters most to your company.

Our BRC Global Packaging (High Hygiene), ISO 14001, and FSC/PEFC accreditation gives you peace of mind that every item in our wide product range meets the highest standards of food safety, sustainability, and compliance.

Environmental Packaging for Food

Why Food Businesses Pick Custom Pack Studio

We’ve been in the packaging field for decades, working with almost every type of food business imaginable.

We’ve supplied them all: takeaways, bakery chains, drinks brands, ready meal manufacturers, artisan producers, and major retailers.

What the food and drink industry requires is something our team learned at Kennedy Smith, gaining detailed knowledge along the way.

We worked on packaging for some of Central’s biggest brands and learned precisely what it takes to meet tough safety standards, tight deadlines, and the quality expectations of major supermarkets.

That extensive experience means we understand the specific challenges you face.

Every regulation that applies, we know it.

Sustainability concerns? We get them.

We’ve seen what works on the shelf and what misses the mark.

The food industry moves at pace.

Evolving requirements, tight delivery timelines, and the high standards your customers require all need a packaging supplier that can keep up.

We’re exactly the kind of supplier you need, and that’s where we come in.

What Is Custom Packaging

Food and Drink Packaging Scotland – Quality at Competitive Prices

We provide competitive prices without cutting corners on quality.

The products we provide meet food safety regulations and perform precisely as they should, without exception.

From keeping a ready meal fresh in the freezer to making a craft chocolate bar look outstanding on the shelves, our packaging works.

Delivery Across Scotland – On Time Every Time

Our delivery service covers all of Central and extends right across Scotland.

Packaging needs to be there on time, and we know that better than anyone.

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

A busy weekend or seasonal rush is no time to be short on packaging.

Our Irvine hub and delivery service mean reliable supply across Central and Scotland.

Durable Packaging - Placeholder

Outstanding Service for Every Customer

From the moment you get in touch with us, you’ll experience exceptional client service.

Finding the right packaging for your product is what our team does, and we explain everything in plain terms along the way.

No confusing jargon, no hidden costs – just honest advice from people who know this field inside out.

Packaging Solutions for Central’s Food Businesses

Packaging needs are different for every food and drink business.

A high-street bakery needs something completely different from a premium whisky brand.

The packaging needs of a ready meal producer don’t overlap with those of a craft coffee roaster.

We understand it, and we’ve always known it.

We don’t push a one-size-fits-all option on everyone, and that’s the point.

Finding exactly what works for your product, your brand, and your budget is how we work as your ally.

We’ve got the machinery and manufacturing setup to handle both small craft runs and large-scale production of packaging products.

We give the same level of service whatever order volume.

Sleeve Packaging for Food and Drink

Food and drink businesses have made sleeve packaging extremely popular, and for good cause.

Adaptable, good-looking, and cost-effective – that’s what makes sleeve packaging work.

Think of it as 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.

Maybe you’ve got stock packaging that works perfectly for your product, but it’s a bit dull.

A printed sleeve is all it takes to turn a generic box into something that screams your brand name straight away.

Seasonal ranges and limited editions are where sleeves truly come into their own.

No need to commit to thousands of completely new boxes.

Get sleeves printed with your special design and slide them right over your existing packaging.

Christmas ranges, Valentine’s gift sets, new flavour launches – sleeves make it easy and cost-effective every time.

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

Brands that think about sustainability get customer trust, and sleeves demonstrate your commitment to environmental responsibility at all stages, from label design to last mouthful.

Packaging Wallets for the Food Sector

Despite the name, wallet packaging is actually pretty simple.

A flat piece of card folds around your product, usually with tuck-in flaps or a simple closure to hold it.

Why do food businesses across Scotland choose wallet packaging? Because it’s practical, cost-effective, and looks fantastic.

Product protection during transport and retail display is where wallets really excel.

The card shields food from damage, keeps everything contained, and stacks tidily when it’s time for 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 communicate to your customers.

We create made-to-order wallets that fit your specific product precisely.

We don’t do almost right, we do actually right.

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

How We Work – Quality Packaging Done Right

Our process works for all levels: accessible for beginners, powerful enough for professionals.

We’ve got options that fit how you choose to work, whether you’re launching your first product or you’re an experienced brand manager.

Professional Design Consultation

Not sure where to start? Want some guidance?

We’ve got connections with professional graphic designers who bring years of experience and expert support to your project.

You might not know what your packaging should look like, or you might want to ensure everything is perfect, either way our design contacts can guide you through every step.

They understand food packaging inside out and know what grabs customers’ eyes on the shelves.

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.”
