Custom Boxes Wholesale for UK Businesses
When your packaging needs grow, ordering box by box stops making sense. Our custom boxes wholesale service gives UK brands printed, branded packaging in bulk at a lower price per box, without giving up on quality or design. Whether you ship a few hundred orders a month or supply retailers across the country, we make wholesale packaging that fits your product and carries your brand.
Every wholesale order is made to your exact size, style, material and finish. You get free design support, a digital mockup before production and delivery anywhere in the UK. Orders start from just 50 boxes, and the more you order, the lower your unit price.
Why Buy Custom Boxes Wholesale?
- Lower cost per box: set-up costs are shared across a larger run, so each box costs less as your quantity increases.
- Consistent branding: every box in the run is printed to the same approved artwork and colours.
- Fewer reorders: one larger order keeps you stocked for longer and saves time on repeat purchasing.
- Made to fit: boxes sized to your product reduce empty space, protect better and cut shipping waste.
- Room to grow: start with a smaller run, then scale up to repeat wholesale orders as sales grow.

Materials for Wholesale Packaging
The right material depends on your product weight, how it is sold and how it travels.
- Paperboard (SBS, CCNB): smooth and lightweight, ideal for retail and cosmetic boxes with sharp print.
- Corrugated board (E-flute and above): extra strength for shipping and heavier products.
- Kraft board: natural, recyclable and popular with eco-conscious brands. See our custom kraft boxes.
- Rigid chipboard: a solid, premium feel for gift and luxury packaging.
Printing and Finishing Options
Wholesale does not mean plain. We print in full colour (CMYK) or exact Pantone shades using offset, digital or UV printing, inside and out. You can add foil stamping, embossing, debossing, spot UV, soft-touch or gloss lamination and window patches. See every option on our printing options page, or read about custom boxes with logo printing.
