Right here in Galashiels, we’re an independent packaging partner that provides made-to-order solutions for food businesses at every stage, from local takeaways and bakery start-ups to well-known food businesses distributing across Scotland and beyond.
So what makes us stand out?
We actually hear you out.
It doesn’t matter if you’re a craft producer with your first product or a established brand seeking specialist packaging, we treat every client the same manner.
We take proper time to understand your packaging requirements, your brand, and what truly matters 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 extensive product range meets the highest standards of food safety, sustainability, and compliance.
Food and Drink Businesses Choose Custom Pack Studio
Decades in the packaging industry have given us experience with just about every type of food business you can imagine.
Takeaways, bakery chains, drinks brands, ready meal manufacturers, artisan producers, major retailers – we’ve done the lot.
Kennedy Smith is where our team built thorough knowledge of what the food and drink industry needs.
Working on packaging for some of Galashiels’s biggest brands taught us exactly 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 difficulties you face.
We know the regulations.
Sustainability issues are something we understand.
We know what works on the shelf and what falls flat, because we’ve seen it all.
In the food sector, things move quickly.
Keeping up with shifting demands, tight delivery schedules, and the high standards your customers require takes the right packaging supplier.
That’s precisely where Custom Pack Studio comes in.
Quality Food Packaging Scotland at Rates That Work
You get competitive prices from us, and we never cut corners on quality.
The products we supply meet food safety standards 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 shelves.
Dependable Delivery Service Across Scotland
Galashiels and Scotland are entirely covered by our delivery service.
Packaging needs to be there on time, and we get that better than anyone.
We don’t just promise it, that’s how we run business every single day.
Running out of packaging before a busy weekend or seasonal rush isn’t something you can afford.
Dependable supply across Galashiels and Scotland is what our delivery service and Irvine location make possible.
First-Class Service for Every Customer
You get exceptional client service from us, and it starts the moment you contact us.
Our team works with you to find the right packaging for your product, and we explain everything in plain language.
Honest advice from people who know this sector inside out, with no confusing jargon and no hidden costs.
Specialist Packaging Solutions Across Galashiels
Packaging needs are different for every food and drink business.
Compare a high-street bakery to a premium whisky brand, and you’ll see completely different packaging priorities.
The packaging requirements of a ready meal producer don’t overlap with those of a craft coffee roaster.
We totally know that.
We don’t push a standard answer on every business, and that’s the point.
Your product, your brand, your budget – we work as your partner to find precisely what works across all three.
Both small craft runs and large-scale production of packaging products are covered by our machinery and manufacturing capabilities.
Whether your order is big or small, the service level stays the same.
Food Product Sleeve Packaging
In the food and drink packaging industry, sleeve packaging has become extremely popular, and it’s easy to see why.
You get something that’s flexible, attention-grabbing, and cost-effective all at once.
In plain terms, a sleeve is a printed wrapper that slides over your product or its primary packaging.
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 missed opportunity.
A printed sleeve is all it takes to transform a generic box into something that screams your brand name right away.
Seasonal ranges and limited editions are where sleeves truly come into their own.
Forget ordering thousands of entirely new boxes.
All you do is print sleeves with your unique design and slide them over your existing packaging.
Whether it’s a Christmas range, a Valentine’s gift set, or a new flavour launch, sleeves make it straightforward and budget-friendly.
Paper sleeves need less material than a full printed box, and recycling them is straightforward.
Your customers appreciate brands that care about sustainability, and sleeves are proof of your commitment to environmental responsibility at all stages of the process, from label design to last mouthful.
Food Wallet Packaging Options
Despite the name, wallet packaging is really pretty straightforward.
It’s a flat card that folds around your product, often secured with tuck-in flaps or a simple closure.
Across Scotland, food businesses choose wallet packaging because it’s practical, affordable, and looks impressive.
Wallets are excellent for protecting products during transport and retail display.
Everything stays contained and protected from damage, and the card material stacks tidily for both delivery and storage.
Design room? Wallets give you loads of it.
Branding, product information, ingredient lists, and more – all those flat panels give you plenty of room to convey everything to your customers.
Our custom wallet designs fit your specific product exactly.
Not roughly right, but precisely right.
Samples are produced so you can test before committing to a full order, and our team measures everything carefully to make sure it’s right.
