Packaging for London
What a food pack sold in London has to show
Food and drink packs sold in the UK follow UK food labelling rules. Three of them shape the design itself, so we plan them before artwork starts.
Text size
Mandatory text at 1.2 mm x-height
All mandatory food information in a font with a minimum x-height of 1.2 mm, or 0.9 mm if the largest surface of the pack is under 80 cm².
GOV.UK: food labelling, giving food information to consumers
Field of vision
Name and quantity seen together
The name of the food and its net quantity must be visible at the same time, and so must the alcohol strength on drinks over 1.2%.
GOV.UK: food labelling, giving food information to consumers
Food contact
Packaging marked for food use
If you pack food yourself, the packaging must be suitable for food use: marked “for food contact” or with the wine glass and fork symbol.
GOV.UK: food labelling and packaging
Before your pack goes on sale in the UK
What packaging sold in the UK has to meet
5 checks, in this order. Each links to its official source on GOV.UK or legislation.gov.uk.
Check first
Packaging EPR starts at two thresholds in the law.
You are an obligated producer if your turnover was “more than £1,000,000” and you supplied “more than 25 tonnes of packaging” in the UK. Above “more than £2,000,000” and “more than 50 tonnes”, you are a large producer.
Packaging Regulations 2024, reg. 24 (legislation.gov.uk) · GOV.UK: check if you must comply with EPR for packaging
- Check 1: Check if you are a packaging producer Brand owners, packers and fillers, importers, sellers of filled packaging and online marketplaces can all be producers. If another company packs or imports goods in your branded packaging, you are still the producer. GOV.UK: check if you must comply with EPR for packaging
- Check 2: Register and report your packaging data Small producers register and report packaging data every year, by 1 April. Large producers register each year, report every 6 months, meet recycling obligations and pay a waste disposal fee for household packaging to PackUK. GOV.UK: extended producer responsibility for packaging · GOV.UK: EPR for packaging as a small producer
- Check 3: Check the Plastic Packaging Tax Register if you manufacture or import 10 tonnes or more of finished plastic packaging components in 12 months. The tax applies to components with less than 30% recycled plastic. GOV.UK: Plastic Packaging Tax, steps to take
- Check 4: Put the mandatory food information on the pack Name of the food, ingredients with allergens, net quantity, a best before or use by date, and the name and address of the food business. Alcohol strength on drinks over 1.2%. GOV.UK: food labelling, giving food information to consumers · GOV.UK: food labelling and packaging
- Check 5: Show the net quantity in metric units Grams, kilograms, millilitres or litres on packaged food over 5 g or 5 ml. The ℮ mark is optional. GOV.UK: food labelling and packaging · GOV.UK: packaged goods, weights and measures

Questions buyers ask
Packaging design in London: FAQ
Ask us on a call
How much does packaging design cost in London?
The same everywhere, in euros: €1,500 for a pack strategy consultation, from €2,000 for one SKU (4 to 6 weeks) and from €10,000 for a full range (6 to 10 weeks). Larger portfolios are quoted individually. Fixed scope, no setup fees. Details on our Packaging page.
How long does a packaging design project take?
A single SKU takes 4 to 6 weeks. A full range pack system takes 6 to 10 weeks: strategy and audit (weeks 1-2), structural and visual design (weeks 3-7), print-ready handoff and launch (weeks 8-10). A strategy consultation takes 2 to 3 weeks.
What happens in the first step?
Every engagement starts with a pack strategy consultation, and the scope is locked before any design work begins. The consultation (€1,500, one-time) is a paid strategy session, separate from our free 30-minute call: a 90-minute discovery interview, a category and shelf audit of your top 5 competitors, a recommendation memo with priorities and a follow-up call within 14 days. If you are not sure yet, start with the free 30-minute call: bring your product, your range or your current pack.
Can you work with our existing dieline or pack structure?
Yes. Our Starter project for a single SKU includes structural design or dieline adaptation, so we can use your existing dieline. Full range projects include structural design across the range: form, dieline, materials and structural prototyping.
Do you deliver print-ready files, check barcodes and work with our printer?
Yes. You get production-ready files your print partner can take straight to plate: dielines, color separations, retailer compliance and barcode validation. Single SKU projects include barcode and retailer compliance validation; full range projects add retailer compliance verification per market, launch planning and the handoff to your print partner.
Do you have an office in London, and do you work with brands outside London?
Yes. Our London office is at 32 London Bridge St, London SE1 9SG. We share your time zone, so calls happen in normal working hours. Meet us in person at our London office or at any of our 10 offices, or by video. We also work with brands outside London: 250+ brands so far, including the nearby cities listed at the end of this page.
Which UK packaging rules apply, and do I have to pay the Plastic Packaging Tax?
Packaging EPR applies if your turnover was “more than £1,000,000” and you supplied “more than 25 tonnes of packaging” in the UK (regulation 24). The Plastic Packaging Tax applies only if you manufacture or import 10 tonnes or more of finished plastic packaging components in 12 months, and only on components with less than 30% recycled plastic. Recycled plastic must also be allowed under food safety rules for your product. Food packs also follow UK food labelling rules. Packaging Regulations 2024, reg. 24 (legislation.gov.uk) GOV.UK: Plastic Packaging Tax, steps to take GOV.UK: food labelling, giving food information to consumers
What must a food label show in the UK?
The name of the food, the ingredients with allergens, the net quantity, a best before or use by date and the name and address of the food business, plus the alcohol strength on drinks over 1.2%. Mandatory text needs a minimum x-height of 1.2 mm (0.9 mm on packs whose largest surface is under 80 cm²). GOV.UK: food labelling, giving food information to consumers
