Custom Printed Packaging
We work closely with a broad variety of manufacturing partners enabling us to supply any number of bespoke packaging products. Some of our supplier relationships began when we started in 1975 and continue today, whilst others have formed in more recent years as developments in new technologies, materials and machinery have resulted in new companies being established. Our supplier base is widespread, encompassing manufacturing facilities throughout the world, including a large number of operations based in the UK and Europe.
Bespoke printing enables you to promote and advertise your company & products to both new and existing customers. Not only can graphics, logos and text help remind and influence existing customers, they can also help attract and encourage new sales through brand awareness, confidence and visual impact. Having your packaging branded with your company logo, name or other elements helps exude a feeling of high quality. All of which can add a level of reassurance to buyers and sellers. Brand recognition is also an excellent method of growing a business’s reputation and expanding customer reach.
Printing can also be used to convey product details such as instructions for use, ingredients, nutritional information or warning/useful messages/instructions ("glass", "handle with care" or "this way up").
We can supply a large range of custom printed products, including:
- Industrial Bags & Sheets (Most plastics, biodegradable, paper rolls and cardboard pallet sheets).
- Sacks (clear or coloured polythene, woven polypropylene and paper options).
- Carrier Bags (Polythene, Patch-Handle, Variable-gauge, Paper, Film Front, Jute & Cotton).

Bespoke Products / Specifications
Our capabilities include:
Shrink wrap / Shrink films – bespoke sizes and thicknesses.
In many cases, we can offer considerable cost savings where customers have been using another supplier’s product.
With recent innovations in polymers, we can often down-gauge the specification but still offer increased strength with puncture and tear-resistance whilst keeping consistent performance.
Cardboard – bespoke sizes, styles and board grades.
From quite simple designs to complex units, we can offer everything from outer boxes with internal inserts, to pallet box systems and cardboard dolavs with plastic corner pillars. Corrugated board and solid board variants.
Bags (various materials and types):
- Paper / Plastic / Biodegradable / Jute / Cotton
- Grip-seal
- Top-tac (peel and seal)
- Hook bags
- Wicketed
- Gusseted
- Block-headed
- LDPE / HDPE
- Film-front bags (plain or bio) and much more...
Paper Sacks – Highly popular choice due to their recyclable and reusable properties.
Our paper sacks are either 2ply or 3ply depending on their size, all classed as "wet-strength" and can be printed (MOQ applies).
Here at Carters Packaging Ltd, we can support you in getting tailored packaging across a wide selection of different products, although please be aware orders will have to meet a specific minimum quantity. We can supply everything from an MOQ to vendor-managed stock and multi-branch/site delivery.
