We’re based right here in Forres as an independent packaging partner, providing made-to-order solutions for businesses of every size, from local takeaways and bakery start-ups through to larger food businesses with distribution across Scotland and beyond.
What truly sets us apart?
We really hear you.
We treat every client the same, whether you’re a craft producer currently launching your first product or a premium brand searching for specialist packaging.
Our team takes the time to understand your packaging needs, your brand, and what matters most to your company.
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.
Custom Pack Studio – Why Food Businesses Work With Us
Almost every type of food business you can name has worked with us, backed by our decades in the packaging industry.
From takeaways and bakery chains to drinks brands, ready meal manufacturers, artisan producers, and major retailers, we’ve worked with them all.
Our team’s background at Kennedy Smith gave us thorough knowledge of what the food and drink industry requires.
Some of Forres’s biggest brands trusted us with their packaging, and we learned exactly what it takes to meet strict safety standards, tight deadlines, and the quality expectations of major supermarkets.
Because of that wide-ranging experience, we understand the specific challenges your food business faces.
We know the regulations.
Sustainability issues are something we get.
We’ve seen plenty of what works on the shelf and what falls flat.
In the food industry, things move fast.
Keeping up with changing demands, tight delivery schedules, and the high standards your customers require takes the right packaging supplier.
That’s where we come in.
Fair Prices on Quality Food Packaging Scotland
Quality stays high and prices stay competitive – we don’t cut corners.
Food safety requirements are met by every product we supply, and each one performs exactly as it should.
Whether that’s keeping a ready meal fresh in the freezer or making a craft chocolate bar look incredible on the shelves.
DependableDelivery Service
We deliver across the whole of Forres and right across Scotland.
On-time delivery matters, and we know that when you need your packaging, you need it without delay.
More than a claim, it’s how we operate business every single day.
A busy weekend or seasonal rush is no time to be short on packaging.
Consistent supply across Forres and Scotland is what our delivery service and Irvine location guarantee.
Customer Service That’s Exceptional
The moment you reach out to us, you’ll experience the first-class client service we provide.
Our team works with you to find the right packaging for your product, and we explain everything in plain language.
We don’t use confusing industry speak and we don’t hide costs, you just get honest advice from people who know this field inside out.
Specialist Food Packaging Across Forres
Every food and drink business brings its own packaging needs.
The packaging a high-street bakery wants is worlds apart from what a top-shelf whisky brand is after.
Ready meal companies and craft coffee roasters have completely different requirements.
We understand that better than the rest.
We choose not to push a standard answer on every business.
Finding exactly what works for your product, your brand, and your budget is how we work as your partner.
Our machinery and manufacturing capabilities mean we can handle both small craft runs and large-scale production of packaging products.
The level of service stays the same whatever order volume.
Food Sleeve Packaging
Sleeve packaging is hugely popular in the food and drink world right now, and for good reason.
You get something that’s flexible, eye-catching, and affordable all at once.
It’s simply a printed wrapper that slides neatly over your product or its primary packaging.
Adding branding to plain boxes or containers is exactly what sleeves are perfect for.
You might have stock packaging that’s totally functional but a bit dull to look at.
One printed sleeve transforms that generic box straight away into something that shouts your brand name.
Sleeves are ideal for seasonal ranges or limited editions.
Thousands of new boxes? You don’t need them.
Sleeves with your new design slide straight over your existing packaging, simple as that.
Whether it’s a Christmas range, a Valentine’s gift set, or a new flavour launch, sleeves make it straightforward and budget-friendly.
You use less material with paper sleeves than a full printed box, and they’re straightforward to recycle too.
From label design to last mouthful, sleeves show your commitment to environmental responsibility at every stage, and customers respect brands that think about sustainability.
Packaging Wallets for the Food Sector
The name might imply something complicated, but wallet packaging is actually simple.
It’s a flat card that folds around your product, usually held with tuck-in flaps or a simple closure.
Why do food businesses across Scotland choose wallet packaging? Because it’s practical, affordable, and looks fantastic.
Wallets are brilliant for protecting products during transport and retail display.
The card shields food from damage, keeps everything together, and stacks cleanly when it’s time for delivery and storage.
You get loads of design room with wallet packaging.
With all those flat panels, there’s plenty of room for your branding, product information, ingredient lists, and anything else your customers need to know.
We create tailored wallet designs that fit your specific product precisely.
We don’t do almost right, we do precisely right.
Our team takes precise measurements and produces samples, so you can test everything before committing to a full order.
