We’re an independent packaging partner based in Stepps, and we offer tailored solutions for businesses of every size, whether you’re a local takeaway, a bakery start-up, or an established food business distributing across Scotland and beyond.
Why are we a cut above?
We really pay attention.
Every client gets the same treatment from us, whether you’re a craft producer launching your first product or a established brand after specialist packaging.
We take proper time to understand your packaging requirements, your brand, and what actually matters to your business.
Our facilities are accredited to BRC Global Packaging (High Hygiene), ISO 14001, and FSC/PEFC, giving you peace of mind that every single item in our wide range of products meets the highest standards of food safety, sustainability, and compliance.
Why Food and Drink Companies Pick Custom Pack Studio
With decades of experience in the packaging field, we’ve worked with almost every type of food business you can think of.
We’ve helped them all: takeaways, bakery chains, drinks brands, ready meal manufacturers, artisan producers, and major retailers.
Kennedy Smith is where our team built deep knowledge of what the food and drink sector demands.
Through packaging work for some of Stepps’s biggest brands, we learned precisely what’s demanded to meet tough safety standards, tight deadlines, and the quality expectations of major supermarkets.
That broad experience gives us a genuine understanding of the specific challenges you face.
We know the regulations.
Sustainability pressures? We understand them.
Years of experience have shown us what works on the shelves and what falls flat.
Food is a rapid industry.
A packaging supplier that keeps up with shifting demands, tight delivery schedules, and the high standards your customers demand is what you need.
That’s precisely where we fit in.
Quality Food Packaging Scotland at Prices That Work
We deliver competitive prices without cutting corners on quality.
Food safety standards? Met. Performance? Precisely as it should be, on every product we provide.
Whether it’s keeping ready meals fresh in the freezer or making craft chocolate bars look incredible on the shelves, our packaging performs.
Dependable Delivery Service
All of Stepps and the wider Scotland are covered by our delivery service.
We know that when you need packaging, you need it on time.
Every single day, that’s how we do business, it’s not just a claim.
Running out of packaging before a busy weekend or seasonal rush isn’t an option.
Based in Irvine, our delivery service keeps you supplied without fail across Stepps and Scotland.
Customer Service That’s Outstanding
Our first-class client service kicks in the moment you make your first call.
We work with you to find the right packaging for your product and explain everything in plain English.
You won’t find confusing jargon or hidden costs here, just honest advice from people who know this industry inside out.
Stepps Specialist Packaging Solutions
Every food and drink business brings its own packaging needs.
The packaging a high-street bakery wants is worlds apart from what a premium whisky brand is after.
A craft coffee roaster’s requirements and a ready meal manufacturer’s couldn’t be more different.
That’s something we completely appreciate.
We don’t push a generic solution on every business, and that’s the point.
We work as your partner to find exactly what works for your product, your brand, and your budget.
Whether it’s small craft runs or large-scale production of packaging products, our machinery and manufacturing capacity can handle both.
The service you get is the same, regardless of how big or small your order is.
Sleeve Packaging for the Food Industry
Sleeve packaging has become really popular in the food and drink packaging sector, and for good cause.
Sleeves are flexible, attention-grabbing, and affordable.
Think of it as a printed wrapper that slides over your product or its primary packaging.
Adding branding to plain boxes or containers is precisely what sleeves are perfect for.
Maybe you’ve got stock packaging that works perfectly for your product, but it’s a bit plain.
A printed sleeve transforms it right away, turning a generic box into something that shouts your brand name.
Sleeves are great for seasonal ranges or limited editions.
There’s no need to order thousands of completely new boxes.
Print your special design onto sleeves 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 simple and affordable.
Paper sleeves use less material than a full printed box, and they’re straightforward to recycle.
Sleeves show that you’re committed to environmental responsibility at every stage of the manufacturing process, from label design to last mouthful, and customers appreciate brands that think about sustainability.
Food Wallet Packaging Options
Wallet packaging might seem complicated, but it’s really pretty uncomplicated.
It’s a flat card that folds around your product, usually secured with tuck-in flaps or a simple closure.
It’s practical, cost-effective, and looks fantastic – three reasons why food businesses across Scotland go for wallet packaging.
For protecting products during transport and retail display, wallets are excellent.
The card shields food from damage, keeps everything contained, and stacks neatly when it’s time for delivery and storage.
Design room? Wallets give you loads of it.
Plenty of room for branding, product information, ingredient lists, and whatever else you need to share – that’s what all those flat panels give.
We create tailored wallet designs that fit your specific product exactly.
Not nearly – properly right, every time.
We measure everything accurately and produce samples so you can test before committing to a full run.
