Based right here in Dollar, we’re an independent packaging partner delivering custom solutions for all business size, from local takeaways and bakery start-ups to established food businesses distributing across Scotland and beyond.
What truly sets us apart?
We actually listen.
From craft producers launching their first product to well-known brands looking for specialist packaging, every client gets treated the same manner.
We take proper time to understand your packaging requirements, your brand, and what really matters to your business.
BRC Global Packaging (High Hygiene), ISO 14001, and FSC/PEFC accreditation means every single item in our wide range of products meets the highest standards of food safety, sustainability, and compliance.
Why Food and Drink Businesses Choose Custom Pack Studio
Our decades of experience in the packaging industry mean we’ve worked with nearly every type of food business going.
Bakery chains, takeaways, drinks brands, ready meal manufacturers, artisan producers, major retailers – we’ve worked with the full range.
Our team’s time at Kennedy Smith gave us thorough knowledge of what the food and drink industry requires.
We learned precisely what it takes to meet strict safety standards, tight deadlines, and the quality expectations of major supermarkets by working on packaging for some of Dollar’s biggest brands.
The specific challenges you face aren’t new to us, and that wide-ranging experience is why.
The regulations aren’t a mystery to us.
The sustainability pressures your business faces, we understand them fully.
What works on the shelves and what doesn’t – we’ve seen it all.
The food industry moves fast.
Keeping up with changing demands, tight delivery timelines, and the high standards your customers demand takes the right packaging supplier.
That’s exactly where we fit in.
Food and Drink Packaging Scotland – Quality at Competitive Prices
We offer competitive prices without cutting corners on quality.
The products we deliver meet food safety regulations and perform exactly as they should, without exception.
That applies whether you’re keeping a ready meal fresh in the freezer or making a craft chocolate bar look incredible on the shelf.
DependableDelivery Service
We supply across the whole of Dollar and right across Scotland.
When you need packaging, you need it on time, and we get that.
Every single day, that’s how we do business, it’s not just a pledge.
The last thing you need is to run out of packaging right before a busy weekend or seasonal rush.
Reliable supply across Dollar and Scotland is what our delivery service and Irvine hub deliver.
Exceptional Client Service
Exceptional client service starts the moment you get in touch with us.
We work with you to find the right packaging for your product and explain everything in plain terms.
No confusing jargon, no hidden costs – just honest advice from people who know this sector inside out.
Specialist Packaging Options Across Dollar
Every food and drink business comes with its own packaging needs.
High-street bakeries and high-end whisky brands have completely different packaging priorities.
Ready meal companies and craft coffee roasters have completely different requirements.
We totally get that.
Instead of pushing a standard option on everyone, we take a different approach.
Your product, your brand, your budget – we work as your ally to find precisely what works across all three.
Our manufacturing setup and machinery mean small craft runs and large-scale production are equally within reach.
The service you get is the same, regardless of how big or small your order is.
Sleeve Packaging for Food and Drink
Food and drink businesses have made sleeve packaging extremely popular, and for good reason.
Adaptable, attention-grabbing, and affordable – that’s what makes sleeve packaging work.
A sleeve slides over your product or its primary packaging as a printed wrapper, it’s as simple as that.
Sleeves are perfect for adding branding to plain boxes or containers.
You might have stock packaging that’s perfectly functional but a bit boring to look at.
Slide a printed sleeve on and that generic box is instantly transformed into something that screams your brand name.
Got a seasonal range or limited edition coming up? Sleeves are brilliant.
There’s no need to order thousands of brand new boxes.
Sleeves with your unique design slide right over your existing packaging, simple as that.
Sleeves make everything from Christmas ranges and Valentine’s gift sets to new flavour launches easy and budget-friendly.
Recycling is straightforward with paper sleeves, and they use less material than a full printed box.
Sleeves show that you’re committed to environmental responsibility at every stage of the manufacturing process, from label design to last mouthful, and customers value brands that think about sustainability.
Wallet Packaging for Food Businesses
Despite the name, wallet packaging is really pretty 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, cost-effective, and looks great.
Transport and retail display protection is something wallets manage really well.
The card shields food from damage, keeps everything together, and stacks cleanly when it’s time for delivery and storage.
One of the best advantages about wallets is the design room they give.
Plenty of room for branding, product information, ingredient lists, and anything else you need to convey – that’s what all those flat panels give.
Your product gets a custom wallet design that fits precisely.
There’s a difference between roughly right and actually right, and we always deliver the latter.
Everything is measured carefully, and we produce samples so you can test before committing to a full order.
