We’re an independent packaging partner based right here in Drybridge, providing custom solutions for businesses of every size, from local takeaways and bakery start-ups to larger food businesses with distribution across the UK and beyond.
What sets us apart?
We actually listen.
Craft producer launching your first product? Established brand after specialist packaging? We treat every single client the same manner.
Your packaging needs, your brand, and what matters most to your business are all things our team takes proper time to understand.
Our facilities are accredited to BRC Global Packaging (High Hygiene), ISO 14001, and FSC/PEFC, giving you peace of mind that every single item in our huge range of products meets the highest standards of food safety, sustainability, and compliance.
Why Food and Drink Companies Trust Custom Pack Studio
We’ve been in the packaging field for decades, working with nearly every type of food business you can think of.
We’ve helped takeaways, bakery chains, drinks brands, ready meal manufacturers, artisan producers, and major retailers – the lot.
Kennedy Smith is where our team built deep knowledge of what the food and drink sector requires.
Working on packaging for some of Drybridge’s biggest brands taught us precisely what it takes to meet strict safety standards, tight deadlines, and the quality expectations of major supermarkets.
That broad experience gives us a genuine understanding of the specific difficulties you face.
We know every rule.
We get the sustainability concerns too.
We’ve seen enough of what works on the shelves and what doesn’t.
Food is a rapid sector.
You need a packaging supplier who can keep up with shifting requirements, tight delivery timelines, and the high standards your customers demand.
This is where we come in.
Quality Food and Drink Packaging Scotland at Competitive Prices
Competitive prices are a given here, and we never cut corners on quality.
Every product we deliver meets food safety standards and performs exactly as it should.
It doesn’t matter if you need to keep a ready meal fresh in the freezer or make a craft chocolate bar look fantastic on the shelves.
Dependable Delivery Service Across Scotland
Drybridge and Scotland are entirely covered by our delivery service.
When you need packaging, you need it on time, and we get that.
This isn’t just a promise; it’s actually how we do business every single day.
You can’t afford to run out of packaging right before a busy weekend or seasonal rush.
With our Irvine location and solid delivery service, we keep you supplied reliably across Drybridge and Scotland.
Exceptional Client Service
You get exceptional client service from us, and it starts the moment you get in touch.
Our team works with you to find the right packaging for your product, and we explain everything in plain terms.
No confusing jargon, no hidden costs – just honest advice from people who know this sector inside out.
Packaging Options for Drybridge’s Food Businesses
No two food and drink businesses have the same packaging requirements.
A high-street bakery needs something completely different from a top-shelf whisky brand.
The needs of a ready meal company don’t match those of a craft coffee roaster.
We know that better than the rest.
We don’t push a one-size-fits-all answer on every client, and that’s the point.
Finding precisely what works for your product, your brand, and your budget is how we work as your ally.
Whether it’s small craft runs or large-scale production of packaging products, our machinery and manufacturing capabilities can handle both.
No matter your order size, the level of service stays the same.
Food Sleeve Packaging
It’s no wonder that sleeve packaging has become really popular in food and drink packaging.
Three things make it work: it’s versatile, good-looking, and great value.
A sleeve slides over your product or its primary packaging as a printed wrapper, it’s as simple as that.
Plain boxes or containers? Sleeves are the perfect way to add your branding.
Your stock packaging might work well for your product, but if it’s a bit plain, that’s a problem.
That generic box turns into something that announces your brand name the moment a printed sleeve goes on.
Sleeves are ideal for seasonal ranges or limited editions.
Forget ordering thousands of brand new boxes.
Get sleeves printed with your special design and slide them straight over your existing packaging.
Sleeves make everything from Christmas ranges and Valentine’s gift sets to new flavour launches easy and cost-effective.
Recycling is easy with paper sleeves, and they use less material than a full printed box.
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 Food Businesses
Don’t let the name fool you – wallet packaging is really pretty simple.
Essentially, it’s a flat piece of card that folds around your product, with tuck-in flaps or a simple closure to hold everything in place.
It’s practical, great value, and looks impressive – three reasons why food businesses across Scotland go for wallet packaging.
Product protection during transport and retail display is where wallets truly perform.
The card shields food from damage, keeps everything together, and stacks tidily when it’s time for delivery and storage.
One of the best things about wallets is the design room they offer.
With all those flat panels, there’s plenty of room for your branding, product information, ingredient lists, and anything else your customers need to read.
We design custom wallets that fit your specific product perfectly.
Not nearly – precisely right, every time.
Our team takes precise measurements and produces samples, so you can test everything before committing to a full order.

Our process is built to be easy for beginners but capable 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 leader.

Years of experience and expert skill come from the professional graphic designers we’re connected with.
Our design contacts guide you through the entire process, from figuring out what your packaging should look like to making sure every detail is spot-on.
They know food packaging inside out and know what catches customers’ eyes on the shelf.
