I want a custom designed box... can you help?

The answer is possibly yes but first there are a couple of things you need to know about us and after that, a few things we'll need to know about your requirements in order for us to help.

Firstly and most importantly, are you looking for a minimum of 2,000 - 5,000 boxes? 

If the answer is no then I'm afraid we are unlikely to be able to help you with a fully bespoke solution. Our factory is geared to the production of large volumes in order to offer competitive and cost-effective pricing. If you are looking for 50 boxes to a specific size, with you own printed design and you need them delivered a week next Friday, then unfortunately our business is not set-up for this type of box production. 

If you are looking for a lower volume and have time constraints on delivery then the best option is to see if one of our stock sizes will work for you. Even if it isn't the perfect solution and you may need to add extra tissue paper to make your products work, this would be a quicker and cheaper option. Remember Nunet or Chiltern Foil can help to personalise our stock boxes so you can achieve a unique own-branded solution at a much lower cost than producing an entirely custom box. 

If you are looking for 2,000 - 5,000 boxes then you will also need around 12-16 weeks development and manufacturing time. This process can be quicker if you have a very fixed idea of what you need.

If you are looking for 2,000 - 5,000 boxes and you have the lead time needed to develop your project, we would be delighted to hear from you. Please visit our 'Bespoke' page for information on what we need to know in order to help you as quickly as possible. You may also want to take a look at our '10 Tips for developing your own box'.

The Christmas colours we’ll be seeing everywhere in 2026

Christmas colours are changing. Traditional red, green and gold are certainly not disappearing, but in 2026 they are becoming deeper, softer and considerably more sophisticated. Across fashion, interiors and product design, we are seeing a move towards colours with greater depth and personality. Burgundy is replacing brighter Christmas reds, sage offers a softer interpretation of festive green, chocolate brown is emerging as an unexpectedly luxurious neutral, while teal brings something completely different to the traditional Christmas palette.

What your corporate Christmas gift says about your brand
What your corporate Christmas gift says about your brand

by Nicole Hines September 22, 2026 9 min read

Most corporate Christmas gifts begin life as a procurement exercise: a budget, a recipient list and a delivery date. In reality, they are something rather different. A corporate gift is a piece of brand communication that arrives physically in the hands of someone whose opinion of the sender matters. That makes the presentation more important than it might first appear.
