CDs in luxury hardback digipaks with linen or velvet covers
For small run orders of 25 items or more
If you are after the ‘wow’ factor with a completely rigid digipak beautifully wrapped in linen or velvet, then this is just for you. These digipaks use a hardboard construction for a heavy weight that doesn’t bend and has a white CD or DVD plastic tray, but the case is beautifully wrapped in linen or velvet from a wide selection of colours. They really do look stunning with a high quality construction and are very unusual, but obviously do cost a fair bit more than standard printed card digipaks which are not completely rigid and don’t have the same tactile feel or premium presentation.
Suitable for both CDs, DVDs or Blurays, these digipaks are available for orders of 25 units or more.
The digipaks have hidden magnetic catches for closing.

Material colours available
Quality of construction
The fabric work, craftsmanship and overall quality of build are very high, giving a really premium feel. The panels are completely rigid unlike a standard digipak and the quality impression is backed up by the weight of each hardback digipak, weighing 129g without a disc, in comparison to a standard printed card 4 page digipak at about 39g. The hidden magnetic seal for keeping the digipak closed is also a nice touch.
Adding booklets to the hardback digipaks
Standard size CD booklets can be glued to the inside left panel with either eight or twelve pages (however please deduct the back page from the total number of visible pages as this one is glued to the digipak). We do not recommend more than 12 pages as the thickness then starts to push the digipak open a bit and the weight of the other pages can put extra stress on the glued page.

Printing on the fabric digipaks
We can now provide full colour UV LED printing (including white) on the linen and velvet digipak outer covers, however the printing tends to work best if it is just used for smaller logo or title areas, allowing the natural material colour to still show through on the majority of the pack. Most people tend to just go for a print on the front cover, however we can also print on the spines and rear cover if you wish. Each of the three print areas cost £0.40+VAT each, so if you want to print on all three areas then please add £1.20+VAT to the prices above.
Dimensions
The hardback digipaks are slightly larger than a standard 4 page digipak or CD jewel case, measuring 146mm wide x 135mm deep and 12mm thick when closed and 301mm in width when full open.
Cellophane or shrink wrapping the hardback CD digipaks
If you would like your CDs in a clear wrap for a glossy protective finish that is ideal for retail environments or presentation purposes then please add £0.08+VAT per disc for either a shrink wrap or a cellophane resealable wrap.
Artwork template downloads (also suitable for editing in Photoshop)
Coloured CDs
Make your discs stand out or fit with your artwork colouring by adding a unique coloured glossy content layer (underside) in either red, green, blue or black, purple or orange making them quite different and individual from the standard silver base discs. Adding a coloured base costs £0.10+VAT per unit.
CD presentation frames
The frames are fully finished, ready to hang and include additional copies of your release and can even be provided with a full colour printed metal plaque with your artwork on to celebrate the CD release or as a memento for the band members. The frames can include both a copy of the disc and also the packaging and are available in black or white borders with black or white backgrounds.

Type of printing on the CDs
Our disc printing is an on-body full colour UV-LED print for quantities of less than 300 or a silk screen / litho print for larger quantities. Our vinyl-style CDs come with full colour printed labels in the middle as this is more authentic, however we can do on-body printing of the vinyl discs by special request. With our UV-LED printing we can also print partial white bases and spot gloss effects (spot gloss would add £0.50+VAT per disc). We can also leave the white base out altogether if you would like to get a reflective print or colours. The picture illustrates the same artwork printed onto both a reflective silver base and white base on our UV LED printer (either option is the same price).
Add some full colour printed guitar picks
When placing an order with us, why not add some custom printed guitar picks with your band logo on? The picks are available in different thicknesses for acoustic/electric and bass guitars and also lots of different base colours. We can then print full colour on-body artwork with partial white base layers and spot gloss layers if required. Ideal for not only playing with, but also for merch stands, added value online CD/cassette/vinyl sales or freebies for fans.

Do you need a barcode?
If you will be selling your discs through a retail store then you will probably need to register a unique barcode for your release and apply it to the rear outer artwork of your product to make it possible for them to sell via their product barcode scanner.
In Europe we use the EAN 13 barcode system and in North America the UPC system is used. We can register an EAN 13 barcode for you and embed the barcode graphic within your disc packaging artwork for just £12+VAT. The only information that we will require from you will be the name of the band/artist and the title of the release, then just leave a suitable space in your artwork and we will register the barcode and add it to your artwork for you, all for just £12+VAT.
For further information about barcodes, please read our barcode FAQs.
