As an independent packaging partner based right here in Newcastle, we offer custom solutions for food businesses of every size, from local takeaways and bakery start-ups to larger brands with Scotland-wide distribution and beyond.
Why are we not like the rest?
Put simply, we pay attention.
We treat every client the same, whether you’re a craft producer currently launching your first product or a established brand in need of specialist packaging.
Our team sits down with you to understand your packaging needs, your brand, and what matters most to your company.
With BRC Global Packaging (High Hygiene), ISO 14001, and FSC/PEFC accreditation, our facilities mean that every product in our extensive range meets the highest food safety, sustainability, and compliance standards.
Why Food Businesses Choose Custom Pack Studio
Our decades of experience in the packaging sector mean we’ve worked with nearly every type of food business out there.
From takeaways and bakery chains to drinks brands, ready meal manufacturers, artisan producers, and major retailers, we’ve done the lot.
The experience our team gained at Kennedy Smith gave us thorough knowledge of what food and drink businesses truly need.
We learned exactly what it takes to meet tough safety standards, tight deadlines, and the quality demands of major supermarkets by working on packaging for some of Newcastle’s biggest brands.
The specific difficulties you face aren’t new to us, and that extensive experience is why.
We know the rules.
We understand sustainability issues.
We’ve seen years’ worth of what works on the shelves and what misses the mark.
Things move fast in the food business.
Changing requirements, tight delivery timelines, and the high standards your customers expect all need a packaging supplier that can keep up.
That’s precisely where we fit in.
Food and Drink Packaging Scotland – Quality at Competitive Prices
We offer competitive prices without cutting corners on quality.
Every product we deliver meets food safety standards and performs exactly as it should.
That applies whether you’re keeping a ready meal fresh in the freezer or making a craft chocolate bar look outstanding on the shelves.
DependableDelivery Service
Newcastle and Scotland are completely covered by our delivery service.
Timing matters, and we know that when you need packaging, you need it without delays.
More than a pledge, it’s how we do business every single day.
A busy weekend or seasonal rush is no time to run out of packaging.
We keep you covered without fail across Newcastle and Scotland, thanks to our delivery service and Irvine hub.
Our Outstanding Customer Service
From the moment you contact us, you’ll get exceptional client service.
Our team works with you to find the right packaging for your product, and everything is explained in plain English.
Honest advice from people who know this field inside out, with no confusing industry speak and no hidden costs.
Tailored Packaging Options Across Newcastle
Every food and drink business has different packaging needs.
The packaging a high-street bakery needs is worlds apart from what a premium whisky brand is after.
A craft coffee roaster’s needs and a ready meal manufacturer’s couldn’t be more different.
We totally get that.
We don’t push a generic option on every client, and that’s the point.
Finding exactly what works for your product, your brand, and your budget is how we work as your ally.
Our manufacturing capacity and machinery mean small craft runs and large-scale production are both fully within reach.
Regardless of your order volume, the level of service stays the same.
Sleeve Packaging for Food Products
There’s a good reason sleeve packaging has become extremely popular in food and drink packaging.
Sleeves are flexible, eye-catching, and great value.
Think of it as a printed wrapper that slides over your product or its primary packaging.
If you’ve got plain boxes or containers, sleeves are perfect for adding your branding.
You might have stock packaging that’s totally functional but a bit boring to look at.
One printed sleeve transforms that generic box instantly into something that announces your brand name.
If you’re running seasonal ranges or limited editions, sleeves are a brilliant option.
No need to buy thousands of entirely new boxes.
Print your unique design onto sleeves and slide them over your existing packaging.
Christmas range, Valentine’s gift set, new flavour launch – sleeves make it straightforward and budget-friendly.
Less material than a full printed box and easy to recycle – that’s what paper sleeves give you.
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.
Packaging Wallets for the Food Sector
Despite the name, wallet packaging is really pretty straightforward.
A flat piece of card, tuck-in flaps or a simple closure, and it folds snugly around your product.
Wallet packaging is functional, affordable, and looks impressive, which is why food businesses across Scotland choose it.
Transport and retail display protection is something wallets manage really well.
Your food is shielded from damage, kept in place, and the wallets stack tidily for delivery and storage.
Wallets give you loads of design area.
All those flat panels mean plenty of room for your branding, product information, ingredient lists, and anything else you need to get across to customers.
We create tailored wallet designs that fit your specific product precisely.
Not almost there – actually right, every time.
Our team takes careful measurements and produces samples, so you can test everything before committing to a full order.
