Food Packaging Manufacturer for Customised Solutions
Talk to us about custom food packaging
Need a food packaging solution designed to suit your food product?
Bonson specialises in custom food packaging, developing and manufacturing customised packaging solutions for food producers. We’re well known for chilled food packaging and packaging for frozen foods, and we’re catering to the surge in demand for ready meals; however, there are many other food types Bonson can help with. For example:
- Baking staples
- Breakfast foods
- Bliss balls
- Nuts and seeds
- Powders
- Spreads
- Sauces
If you manufacture products that need semi-rigid or rigid food packaging, then we can design and manufacture food containers to suit. Even if your food item is not mentioned above, let’s have a chat.
Packaging designed around your product
Food packaging has so many jobs to do beyond just containing a product. It needs to suit the food itself, work with your production and filling processes, and provide the functionality your customers need.
If you are a food manufacturer, we can help you develop packaging around the requirements of your products, just as we have done for many leading brands that you’ll find in supermarkets and food retailers throughout Australasia. It’s not only the big food producers we help – smaller ones also appreciate our depth of industry experience that can help
them grow.
We can help you explore options for:
- Product-specific shapes and sizes
- Different capacities and portion sizes
- Stackable and space-efficient formats
- Sealing options such as secure lids and closures
- Packaging that is easy for consumers to handle and use
- Presentation and branding opportunities
- Packaging suited to automated filling and production processes
- Assessing performance suitability through the supply chain
From packaging concept to manufacture
A customised food packaging project doesn’t have to start with a fully formed design. You may simply know that your current packaging isn’t working as well as it could, or that you need a different format for a new product.
Bonson can work with you to develop a practical packaging solution and take it through to manufacture. Our experience in custom packaging means we can consider the product's requirements, production process, and end user from the outset.
Whether you’re launching a new food product, looking to improve an existing package or need a packaging format that isn’t readily available off the shelf, we can help you investigate the possibilities. From start to finish we aim to make the process as easy as possible.

The right packaging depends on more than the food product itself.

We can help you work through these requirements to determine what your packaging needs to do.
