General Packaging Questions

What types of packaging does Blake Made offer?

We specialise in bespoke packaging solutions for luxury brands — including rigid boxes, folding cartons, gift packaging, ecommerce boxes, and sustainable paper wraps. All designs are custom-made to suit your brand and product requirements.

Do you offer both primary and secondary packaging solutions?

Yes. We design both primary packaging (in direct contact with your product) and secondary packaging (such as branded outer boxes or presentation packaging).

What makes your packaging ‘luxury’?

Luxury packaging is defined by premium materials, high-end finishes (like foiling or embossing), and custom structural designs. We combine aesthetic appeal with functional excellence to elevate your unboxing experience.

Sustainability & Materials

What sustainable materials do you use?

We use FSC®-certified and recycled board, biodegradable laminates, and water-based inks. Our goal is to minimise environmental impact while maintaining the highest standards of quality and luxury.

Is Blake Made packaging fully recyclable?

Most of our packaging is recyclable, depending on the chosen materials and finishes. We also offer guidance on eco-optimising packaging during the design process.

Do you offer plastic-free packaging?

Absolutely. We have a range of plastic-free, mono-material solutions ideal for brands looking to reduce their environmental footprint.

Can you help us reduce packaging waste?

Yes. We offer consultancy on material efficiency, compact design, and supply chain optimisation to help brands reduce waste and over-packaging.

Design & Customisation

Can I customise the shape, colour, and finish of my packaging?

Yes. All packaging is designed bespoke. You can customise size, construction, colour palette, material, branding finishes, and inserts.

What are your luxury finishing options?

Options include hot foiling, spot UV, embossing/debossing, velvet or soft-touch laminates, and custom-fit inserts.

Do you offer packaging design services?

Yes. We offer in-house creative support to bring your vision to life or work alongside your existing design team.

Process & Timelines

What is the lead time for custom packaging?

Typical lead times range from 4–8 weeks after design approval, depending on complexity and quantity. Express options are available upon request.

Can I see samples before committing to a full order?

Yes. We provide physical prototypes or digital mock-ups so you can review structure, materials, and finishes before final production.

What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?

There’s no one-size-fits-all MOQ. The minimum quantity we produce depends entirely on the product, specification, complexity, and size. While we typically produce runs in the tens of thousands, we’re happy to explore smaller volumes where there’s a strong brand fit or long-term potential.

Industries & Use Cases

Do you create packaging for specific industries?

Yes. Our experience spans fashion, beauty, gifting, alcohol, and financial services. We understand the nuances of packaging in regulated or high-impact sectors.

Can you help us with seasonal packaging or limited edition runs?

Absolutely. Whether you’re launching a Christmas range or a new product line, we offer short-run packaging with luxury appeal.

Do you offer secure packaging for financial services?

Yes. We create tamper-evident, branded packaging solutions that meet compliance standards for secure document and asset delivery.

Pricing, Orders & Delivery

How much does bespoke packaging cost?

Pricing depends on materials, quantity, size, and complexity. We’ll provide a tailored quote after reviewing your requirements.

Do you ship internationally?

Yes. We deliver globally, with logistics partners in the UK, Europe, USA, and beyond.

Can I reorder or restock easily?

Yes. Once a packaging structure is approved, reorders can be placed quickly through your dedicated account manager.

Can Blake Made hold stock for repeat orders?

Yes. For ongoing partnerships, we can offer stockholding solutions depending on order volume and production cadence. This enables faster turnaround for reorders and greater supply chain flexibility.
