Custom Packaging by Accelerate Brand Studio, Johannesburg

Packaging is the only piece of brand collateral a customer is guaranteed to touch. It has to protect the product, open the way you intend it to, and look like the price you charged.

We manufacture presentation boxes, rigid gift boxes, cosmetic packaging and embossed retail packaging, with foiling, Spot UV and precision-cut inserts that hold the product exactly where it should sit.

What we produce

  • Rigid presentation and gift boxes — magnetic-close, lift-off lid and drawer styles
  • Cosmetic and retail packaging — printed cartons and sleeves
  • Precision inserts — laser-cut foam and board that hold product in place
  • Embossed and foiled packaging — premium finishes applied in-house
  • Corporate gifting boxes — built around a specific kit or product set
  • Die-cut cartons — custom nets and folding designs

Why produce this with Accelerate

We run print and manufacturing in the same business, across two divisions — Brand Studio and Brand Workshop. That means a project needing custom packaging alongside other branding does not get split between suppliers, so brand colour stays consistent and there is one person accountable for the deadline.

We are based in Randburg, Johannesburg and deliver nationwide. Every enquiry gets a written quote with a firm deadline within 24 hours on business days.

Custom Packaging FAQs

The questions we get asked most about custom packaging.

Can you make custom presentation boxes for our product?
Yes. We manufacture rigid presentation boxes to your product's dimensions, including magnetic-close, lift-off lid and drawer styles. Send us the exact product dimensions and weight and describe how you want the box to open — that opening action is usually what makes packaging feel expensive.
Do you make packaging inserts that hold the product?
Yes. Laser-cut foam and board inserts are made to the product's profile so nothing shifts in transit and everything presents correctly when the box is opened. This is the detail that separates a considered gift set from items loose in a box.
What finishes can be applied to custom packaging?
Metallic and matt foiling, embossing, debossing, Spot UV and velvet-touch lamination — all applied in-house. Because we also do the print finishing, the packaging and any printed collateral inside it can be finished to match rather than being sourced separately.
Can you do cosmetic packaging?
Yes. Printed cartons, sleeves and rigid boxes for cosmetic and beauty ranges are standard work for us, including the premium finishes that category expects. Tell us the shelf environment the product is going into so we can specify a finish that survives handling in retail.
What information do you need to quote packaging?
The product's exact dimensions and weight, the quantity, the box style you have in mind and any finishes you want. If you are not sure of the style, describe how you want it to open and we will suggest options — that is usually faster than working from a reference photo alone.
