Based right here in Riverside, we’re an independent packaging partner providing made-to-order solutions for all business sizes, from local takeaways and bakery start-ups to larger food businesses distributing across Scotland and beyond.
So what makes us unique?
The answer is simple: we hear what you need.
We treat every client the same, whether you’re a craft producer currently launching your first product or a premium brand looking for specialist packaging.
What matters to your company, your packaging requirements, your brand – our team takes the time to understand all of it.
We’re accredited to BRC Global Packaging (High Hygiene), ISO 14001, and FSC/PEFC, so you can be sure that every item in our huge product range meets the highest food safety, sustainability, and compliance standards.
Why Food and Drink Businesses Choose Custom Pack Studio
Our decades of experience in the packaging industry mean we’ve worked with nearly every type of food business you can name.
Takeaways, bakery chains, drinks brands, ready meal manufacturers, artisan producers, major retailers – you name it, we’ve done it.
Working at Kennedy Smith gave our team deep knowledge of precisely what the food and drink sector needs.
Some of Riverside’s biggest brands trusted us with their packaging, and we learned precisely what it takes to meet tough safety standards, tight deadlines, and the quality expectations of major supermarkets.
The specific challenges you face aren’t new to us, and that broad experience is why.
Rules? We know them inside out.
Sustainability pressures? We know them.
Years of experience have shown us what works on the shop floor and what falls flat.
The food sector moves quickly.
A packaging supplier that keeps up with shifting demands, tight delivery timelines, and the high standards your customers require is what you need.
We’re precisely the kind of supplier you need, and that’s where we come in.
Quality Food and Drink Packaging Scotland at Competitive Prices
Competitive prices are guaranteed here, and we never cut corners on quality.
Food safety standards are met by every product we provide, and each one performs precisely as it should.
Keeping a ready meal fresh in the freezer or making a craft chocolate bar look fantastic on the shelves – our packaging handles both.
Delivery Across Scotland – Reliable Every Time
Our delivery service spans all of Riverside and extends right across Scotland.
On-time delivery is everything, and we know that when you need your packaging, you need it right on time.
Every single day, that’s how we do business, it’s not just a claim.
Before a busy weekend or seasonal rush, running out of packaging simply isn’t an option.
Reliable supply across Riverside and Scotland is what our delivery service and Irvine base deliver.
Customer Service That Counts
We offer first-class client service from the moment you contact us.
We work with you to find the right packaging for your product and explain everything in plain English.
No confusing industry speak, no hidden costs – just honest advice from people who know this field inside out.
Packaging Options for Riverside’s Food Businesses
Every food and drink business has its own packaging requirements.
A high-street bakery wants something completely different from a premium whisky brand.
Ready meal producers and craft coffee roasters have completely different requirements.
All of that? We get it.
A standard option pushed on everyone? That’s not how we work.
Finding precisely what works for your product, your brand, and your budget is how we work as your ally.
Both small craft runs and large-scale production of packaging products are covered by our machinery and manufacturing capabilities.
We give the same level of service whatever order volume.
Food Sleeve Packaging
Sleeve packaging has become hugely popular in the food and drink packaging industry, and for good cause.
Versatile, good-looking, and great value – that’s what makes sleeve packaging work.
It’s basically a printed wrapper that slides right over your product or its primary packaging.
Sleeves are perfect for adding branding to plain boxes or containers.
Maybe your stock packaging works perfectly for your product, but it seems a bit dull.
That generic box becomes something that screams your brand name the moment a printed sleeve goes on.
Sleeves are great for seasonal ranges or limited editions.
There’s no need to order thousands of completely new boxes.
Just print sleeves with your new design and slide them over your existing packaging.
Christmas range, Valentine’s gift set, new flavour launch – sleeves make it easy and cost-effective.
Less material than a full printed box and simple to recycle – that’s what paper sleeves deliver.
Brands that think about sustainability get customer trust, and sleeves prove your commitment to environmental responsibility at all stages, from label design to last mouthful.
Wallet Packaging for Food Businesses
It might sound complicated, but wallet packaging is really pretty uncomplicated.
Think of it as a flat piece of card that folds snugly around your product, with tuck-in flaps or a simple closure.
Food businesses across Scotland choose wallet packaging because it’s practical, cost-effective, and looks great.
Transport and retail display protection is something wallets do brilliantly.
The card shields food from damage, keeps everything together, and stacks tidily when it’s time for delivery and storage.
One of the biggest things about wallets is the design area they give.
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.
Your product gets a made-to-order wallet design that fits exactly.
Nearly right isn’t good enough – we go for actually right.
Samples are produced so you can test before committing to a full order, and our team measures everything precisely to make sure it’s right.
