How do we bring your custom plastic packaging to life?

Custom Design Brief

The brief is the most important part. This stage allows us to get a much better understanding of your business. We take time to understand you and your businesses needs. We take into consideration the Company (You), Competitors and most importantly the Customer!

Concept Bespoke Design

After we have understood your business aims, we get to work. We begin by sketching and planning your customised plastic packaging options. We aim to make your vision a reality.

Bespoke Packaging Prototype

Once we finish with the design, we are able to send out an individual sample to allow you to test the products durability, look and feel. It is important to make sure you are happy with the prototype as this is what will be representing your brand for the foreseeable future.

Luxury Bespoke Packaging

Do you have a premium brand? Quality, authenticity, and exclusivity are all markers of luxury packaging. Polymac Packaging can help elevate your brand to new levels.

Packaging for all product types

With bespoke packaging, you can find a packaging solution no matter the type of product you’re handling. So whether you’re packaging delicate goods, or heavier and more robust products, Polymac Packaging is able to supply you with packaging which keeps your product protected.

We can discuss with you the most appropriate packaging type, as well as any bespoke sizing or gauges you may need, to ensure you utilise the correct packaging whilst minimising wasted material.

Packaging for all applications

Bespoke packaging ensures your products are prepared for the requirements of their application, storage or shipment. All events and situations can be accounted for, whether that’s meeting strict health and safety regulations or taking your branding to the next level, our bespoke service enables you to meet all requirements.

Polymac Packaging’s printing capabilities ensure we can design packaging which conveys the right message.

What is Bespoke Packaging?

A Bespoke packaging Solution refers to custom, tailor-made packaging solutions. These solutions are designed to meet the unique needs and style of your product. Unlike standard, off-the-shelf options, bespoke packaging allows for a distinctive design that reflects your brand's personality, enhances the customer experience, and ensures product safety.

This approach involves selecting the appropriate materials, design, and printing techniques to create packaging that is both visually appealing and functionally effective. Bespoke packaging highlights the care, quality, and attention to detail invested in your product, emphasising customisation, brand identity, and customer engagement.

What are the Benefits of Bespoke Packaging?

Bespoke packaging offers numerous advantages for your brand, including distinguishing your products in a competitive market, delivering a memorable unboxing experience, lowering shipping costs, and improving product safety.

Unique Branding and Unboxing Experience
Customised packaging sets your products apart, offering a unique unboxing experience that enhances brand recognition and customer loyalty. By tailoring your packaging, you communicate to your customers that their satisfaction and the overall experience matter to you.

Cost Efficiency in Shipping
Tailored packaging can significantly reduce shipping costs. Designing packaging that fits your product snugly eliminates unnecessary space and weight, leading to lower shipping expenses. Over time, these savings can be substantial, making bespoke packaging a cost-effective choice.

Enhanced Product Protection
Bespoke packaging is designed to fit your product perfectly, offering superior protection against damage during transit. This not only ensures that your products reach customers in pristine condition but also reduces the costs associated with returns and replacements.

How Do I Design My Own Packaging?

Designing your own packaging with Polymac Packaging is straightforward, even if you're not a design or packaging expert. Here's how we support you through the process:

Share Your Ideas
Begin by discussing your initial concepts with us. No matter how preliminary or rough, your ideas are the foundation of the design process. We'll work closely with you to refine these ideas and ensure they're practical for production.

Design Drafting
Our team will then draft designs that incorporate your brand's identity, including logos, colours, and any specific requirements you have. We'll recommend materials and finishes that suit your brand’s aesthetic, budget, and sustainability objectives.

Prototype and Review
Once the design is approved, we'll create a prototype for you to review. This stage is crucial for fine-tuning the details, allowing you to make adjustments until the final design meets your expectations.

How Long Does the Production Process Take for Bespoke Packaging?

The production process for bespoke packaging at Polymac Packaging typically spans 2-4 weeks. This timeframe covers the stages from design approval through to manufacturing and finally, delivery to you. It's important to note that more complex designs or specific material selections can extend this timeline. Our goal is to ensure your packaging meets the highest standards of quality and precision, even if it means spending a little extra time on perfection.

Can Bespoke Packaging Be Environmentally Friendly and Sustainable?

Bespoke packaging can indeed be environmentally friendly and sustainable. A variety of eco-friendly materials are available for creating unique packaging solutions that don't compromise sustainability. These materials include recycled cardboard, biodegradable plastics, and plant-based inks, which are excellent for reducing environmental impact.

It's important to note that using plastic in your packaging doesn't necessarily conflict with sustainability goals. Plastic can be a viable option, especially when using recycled content. At Polymac Packaging, we incorporate up to 30% recycled plastic in our packaging solutions, demonstrating our commitment to environmental responsibility.
