  • Luxury Folding Cartons

    Elevate your product

    Do you have a luxury product that needs elevated packaging? Achieve an incredibly luxurious aesthetic executed with folding carton packaging. It is vital to consider this from the earliest structural and graphic design stages. This can include elevating touches: webbing on lid closures to avoid consumers seeing raw cut edges; internal flood printing to enhance unboxing and carry further brand storytelling; brand specific die-cuts and apertures to take you away from the conventional.

    Luxury Print Finishing

    Onto print finishing techniques such as foil blocking, fluted foil-embossing (the ultimate luxury process!), embossing and debossing. Combined, these will turn a conventional folding carton into a luxury pack, perfectly suited to uphold your luxury brand and product.

Contract Packing

Following the production of your packaging, we can pack your product into it. Once your primary product has been packed into its secondary packaging, it typically goes into a shipper. This is packaging that holds multiples of your packed product and something we also produce, before being packed into corrugated cases. When it’s all packed to your specifications we can ship back to you or any UK destination. This service helps our clients who are struggling with the time restraints product packing can have on their business. Find out more about this and our other services and the technology that makes them happen.
