What sets us apart?
Put simply, we pay attention.
Craft producer launching your first product? Premium brand looking for specialist packaging? We treat every single client the same way.
Understanding your packaging needs, your brand, and what matters most to your company is something our team takes real time to get right.

Why Pick Custom Pack Studio for Food Packaging
We’ve been in the packaging sector for decades, working with just about every type of food business imaginable.
Takeaways, bakery chains, drinks brands, ready meal manufacturers, artisan producers, major retailers – whatever it is, we’ve done it.
What the food and drink sector requires is something our team learned at Kennedy Smith, gaining thorough knowledge along the way.
Some of Summertown’s biggest brands trusted us with their packaging, and we learned precisely what it takes to meet rigorous safety standards, tight deadlines, and the quality expectations of major supermarkets.
Because of that broad experience, we understand the specific pressures your food business faces.
We’re across all the requirements.
We’re well aware of the sustainability issues.
On the shelf, we know what works and what falls flat.
Food is a fast-moving sector.
Your packaging supplier needs to keep up with evolving requirements, tight delivery timelines, and the high standards your customers require.
We’re exactly the kind of supplier you need, and that’s where we come in.
Quality Food and Drink Packaging Scotland at Competitive Prices
We keep our prices competitive without once cutting corners on quality.
Every product we supply meets food safety standards and performs precisely as it should.
Whether it’s keeping ready meals fresh in the freezer or making craft chocolate bars look outstanding on the shelves, our packaging performs.
DependableDelivery Service
Our delivery service covers all of Summertown and extends right across Scotland.
Packaging needs to arrive on time, and we get that better than anyone.
More than a claim, it’s how we operate business every single day.
Before a busy weekend or seasonal rush, running out of packaging simply isn’t an option.
Our delivery service and Irvine location mean we can keep you stocked consistently across Summertown and Scotland.
Outstanding Customer Service
You get outstanding client service from us, and it starts the moment you get in touch.
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 sector inside out.
Tailored Packaging Options Across Summertown
No two food and drink businesses have the same packaging requirements.
Compare a high-street bakery to a high-end whisky brand, and you’ll see completely different packaging needs.
The packaging needs of a ready meal manufacturer don’t overlap with those of a craft coffee roaster.
That’s something we fully get.
We don’t push a standard option on everyone.
As your packaging ally, we find exactly what works for your product, your brand, and your budget.
Both small craft runs and large-scale production of packaging products are covered by our machinery and manufacturing capacity.
No matter your order volume, the level of service stays the same.
Sleeve Packaging for the Food Sector
In the food and drink packaging sector, sleeve packaging has become hugely popular, and it’s easy to see why.
Adaptable, eye-catching, and great value – that’s what makes sleeve packaging work.
A sleeve is basically 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.
Stock packaging that works perfectly but looks a bit dull? We’ve seen it loads.
Slide a printed sleeve on and that generic box is instantly transformed into something that shouts your brand name.
If you’re running seasonal ranges or limited editions, sleeves are a ideal option.
You won’t need to order thousands of completely new boxes.
Just 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 affordable.
Paper sleeves use less material than a full printed box, and they’re straightforward to recycle.
Brands that think about sustainability earn customer trust, and sleeves demonstrate your commitment to environmental responsibility at all stages, from label design to last mouthful.
Wallet Packaging for the Food Industry
Despite the name, wallet packaging is really pretty simple.
Essentially, it’s a flat piece of card that folds around your product, with tuck-in flaps or a simple closure to hold everything in place.
It’s practical, affordable, and looks impressive – three things why food businesses across Scotland choose wallet packaging.
Wallets are brilliant for protecting products during transport and retail display.
Everything stays together and protected from damage, and the card material stacks cleanly for both delivery and storage.
You get loads of design area with wallet packaging.
Plenty of room for branding, product information, ingredient lists, and anything else you need to communicate – that’s what all those flat panels provide.
We create made-to-order wallets that fit your specific product perfectly.
Roughly right isn’t good enough – we go for precisely right.
Everything is measured carefully, and we produce samples so you can test before committing to a full order.

What catches customers’ eyes on the shelves? They know, because they understand food packaging inside out.
Design Your Packaging Yourself
Have your own design ready or know exactly what you’re after?
With our simple ordering process, your ideas come to life fast.
Your artwork, your format – our team will check everything works smoothly together.
We manage the technical side so you can stay in control of the creative decisions.
Template-Based Design
Not sure where to jump in?
Our professionally designed templates are on offer to give you ideas.
Forget generic designs that look like all the other packaging – ours are different.
They’re proper starting points, built by people who understand the food and drink industry and know exactly what quality looks and feels like.
Professional packaging without starting from scratch is as simple as picking a template and adapting it with your brand colours and details.
