Bespoke Packaging Boxes: Everything you need to know
Sometimes off-the-shelf packaging solutions simply can’t meet the requirements of your product, but that doesn’t mean you need to compromise. Our bespoke packaging boxes could fit the bill!
At Springpack we’re focused on providing the best service to you. This is why we keep the cost-effectiveness of your packaging at the forefront of our mind, and make design decisions that will benefit you going forward. Bespoke packaging boxes are an extremely popular option, as they are specifically made to fit the needs of a product.
What is bespoke packaging?
Bespoke packaging refers to packaging products that are entirely unique to your product and even your brand.
As mentioned, custom packaging boxes are one of the most commonly requested bespoke products as they provide a secure and eco-friendly way to safely package goods that require special packaging.
However, bespoke boxes are also popular because they can be personalised with company branding, including the company logo and/or name. This can be a great way to showcase high-quality products and even heighten brand awareness.
Although bespoke boxes are sought-after, there are plenty of other bespoke packaging options that can be considered, a few examples are listed below:
- Custom packaging tape
- Custom postage bags
- Bespoke boards/wraps
- Printed Tape
If any of these custom packaging products would suit the needs of your company then simply get in touch to discuss your packaging requirements with our experienced team.
Where to buy custom packaging boxes?
As a leading supplier of packaging products in the UK, Springpack offer a ‘specials’ service which allows us to provide bespoke packaging to our customers. We’re fully on board with meeting your exact needs, which is why we’ll go over your requirements and measurements in detail to ensure we get things right the first time.
Whether you’re looking for more environmentally friendly packaging, need something to provide an extra layer of protection or simply have a uniquely shaped object to package effectively – we have experience with it all, simply contact us today.
What is the lead time on specials?
Lead times on bespoke packaging products very much vary depending on the product requested. Some bespoke cardboard boxes can be delivered to you within 1-2 weeks depending on the complexity of the item
In comparison, some specialist films can take up to 6 weeks. As a very general guide, we aim to get our products to you within 2 – 8 weeks. This allows time for our full 5 step packaging specials process to be completed. These steps include:
Discussing requirements
It’s important for a supplier to understand the exact requirements of your custom made packaging product in order to take this forward and design a product that will meet your needs. During this stage, the sizing, branding and material requirements for your packaging boxes will be outlined.
Designing custom packaging
Once your requirements are understood the design of your custom packaging product can begin. This may require a completely new design of a product from scratch, or making alterations to existing packaging products to help them fit your needs. Regardless of which option is chosen, we will be considering the best ways to provide optimum protection, as well as other factors like cost-effectiveness.
How much is custom packaging?
Much like lead times, the cost of custom packaging boxes in the UK can vary depending on the product. For example, large bespoke boxes with printed logos may be more costly than personalised printed tape. That’s why it’s so important to discuss your requirements with your packaging supplier.
At Springpack, we’re focused on providing the best service to you. We keep the cost-effectiveness of your packaging products at the forefront, and make design decisions that will benefit you going forward.
