So what makes us different?
Put simply, we hear you out.
Craft producer launching your first product? Established brand looking for specialist packaging? We treat every single client the same manner.
Our team works closely with you to understand your packaging needs, your brand, and what matters most to your business.

Why Food Businesses Pick Custom Pack Studio
Decades in the packaging sector have given us experience with nearly every type of food business you can name.
Takeaways, bakery chains, drinks brands, ready meal manufacturers, artisan producers, 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.
We learned exactly what it takes to meet strict safety standards, tight deadlines, and the quality demands of major supermarkets by working on packaging for some of Holywood’s biggest brands.
That wide-ranging experience gives us a real understanding of the specific challenges you face.
We know the requirements.
We understand sustainability issues.
What works on the shelves and what misses the mark – we’ve seen it all.
Speed is the nature of the food business.
You deserve a packaging supplier who keeps pace with evolving requirements, tight delivery schedules, and the high standards your customers expect.
This is where we come in.

We offer competitive prices without cutting corners on quality.
The products we provide meet food safety standards and perform precisely as they should, without exception.
From keeping a ready meal fresh in the freezer to making a craft chocolate bar look incredible on the shelves, our packaging delivers.
Reliable Delivery Service Across Scotland
Our delivery service covers all of Holywood and extends right across Scotland.
When you need packaging, you need it on time, and we get that.
More than a claim, it’s how we operate business every single day.
You can’t afford to run out of packaging right before a busy weekend or seasonal rush.
Based in Irvine, our delivery service keeps you supplied consistently across Holywood and Scotland.
Our Outstanding Customer Service
The moment you contact us, you’ll experience the outstanding client service we provide.
Our team works with you to find the right packaging for your product, and we explain everything in plain English.
No technical language, no hidden costs, just honest, straight-talking advice from a team that knows this sector inside out.
Custom Packaging Solutions Across Holywood
Food and drink businesses all have different packaging needs.
What a high-street bakery wants is completely different from what a high-end whisky brand needs.
The needs of a ready meal manufacturer don’t match those of a craft coffee roaster.
We understand it, and we’ve always known it.
That’s why we don’t push a standard solution on every business.
We work as your ally to find precisely what works for your product, your brand, and your budget.
Small craft runs and large-scale production are both well within our machinery and manufacturing capabilities.
The service you get is the same, whatever how big or small your order is.
Sleeve Packaging for Food Products
Sleeve packaging has become really popular in the food and drink packaging world, and for good reason.
Three things make it work: it’s versatile, eye-catching, and affordable.
In simple terms, a sleeve is a printed wrapper that slides over your product or its primary packaging.
Adding branding to plain boxes or containers is exactly what sleeves are perfect for.
Got stock packaging that does the trick but looks a bit dull?
Printed sleeves change it straight away, turning a generic box into something that shouts your brand name.
Sleeves work exceptionally well for seasonal ranges and limited editions.
You don’t need to order thousands of completely new boxes.
Print your new design onto sleeves and slide them over your existing packaging.
Christmas ranges, Valentine’s gift sets, new flavour launches – sleeves keep it simple and budget-friendly every time.
You use less material with paper sleeves than a full printed box, and they’re simple to recycle as well.
From label design to last bite, sleeves show your commitment to environmental responsibility at every stage, and customers value brands that think about sustainability.
Wallet Packaging for the Food Sector
Don’t let the name fool you – wallet packaging is really pretty straightforward.
Think of it as a flat piece of card that folds closely around your product, with tuck-in flaps or a simple closure.
It’s practical, cost-effective, and looks impressive – three reasons why food businesses across Scotland choose wallet packaging.
Transport and retail display protection is something wallets handle extremely well.
Your food is shielded from damage, kept contained, and the wallets stack neatly for delivery and storage.
One of the greatest advantages about wallets is the design room they provide.
You’ve got plenty of room across those flat panels for branding, product information, ingredient lists, and whatever else you need to communicate to your customers.
Custom wallet designs that fit your specific product exactly are what we create.
Nearly right isn’t good enough – we aim for properly right.
Samples are produced so you can test before committing to a full order, and our team measures everything accurately to make sure it’s right.
How We Work With You – Quality Packaging Done Properly
We’ve designed our process to be intuitive for beginners and capable enough for experienced users.
First-time product launch or experienced brand owner? Our options fit how you prefer to work.
Design Consultation Service
After some design help?
We’ve got connections with professional graphic designers who bring years of experience and expert guidance to your project.
If you’re not sure what your packaging should look like, or you want to ensure everything is perfect, our design contacts can guide you through the whole process.
Inside-out knowledge of food packaging and a sharp eye for what catches customers’ attention on the shelves is exactly what they bring.
Bring Your Own Design
If you know exactly what you need or already have a design from a different designer, we can work with that.
With our simple ordering process, your ideas come to life quickly.
Supply your artwork and our team takes care of the rest, making sure it works perfectly with your chosen packaging format.
We handle the technical side so you can stay in control of the creative decisions.
Start With Templates
Not sure where to begin?
A range of professionally designed templates is available to get you inspired.
These aren’t generic designs that look like all the other packaging.
They’re genuine starting points, built by people who understand the food and drink sector and know exactly what quality looks and feels like.
You choose a template, personalise it with your brand colours and details, and that’s professional packaging sorted without starting from scratch.
