Standard Custom Printed Card Wallets are made to hold a single disc, although we also offer "Double Card Wallets" that can take a second disc or a booklet. Card Wallets are both lightweight and durable making them an ideal "mailout" solution.

We apply a protective matt or gloss varnish as standard but for an even more professional finish we also offer a "Matt Lamination" and other finishing options (see below).

',"#FFFFFF"); messages[7] = new Array('http://www.discfactory.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/lancing_pack.jpg','

A Lancing Pack is similar to a card wallet but also has an additional flap (or flaps) providing a bigger canvas for artwork design and information to be added.

',"#FFFFFF"); messages[8] = new Array('http://www.discfactory.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/cd_jewel_case.jpg','

The standard Jewel Case is probably the most common CD packaging available. It holds anything from a single front insert up to a 32 page booklet and when opting for a clear tray has the option of printing a "double sided" traycard.

Whether opting for a standard CD Jewel Case, a Slimline option or even a Multi-Disc set definitely consider adding a Slip Case or O-Card for an even greater impact! (see below)

',"#FFFFFF"); messages[9] = new Array('http://www.discfactory.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/super_jewel_box.jpg','

The CD Super Jewel Box is the same size as the regular CD Jewel Case but has a stackable hub meaning it is suitable for 2 discs as standard. Variations include a multi-disc flip tray as well as a slimline version.

We also offer a DVD "king" size version in our Super Jewel Box range.

',"#FFFFFF"); messages[10] = new Array('http://www.discfactory.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/maxi_case.jpg','

The Maxi Case is a crystal clear slim case most commonly used by the music industry for CD singles.

The printed paper insert for the front of the Maxi Case is often referred to as s J-Card as it has a "J" shaped lip that extends around the case to provide an extra area that is normally used to provide track information about the disc.

DVD cases have a clear outer wrap which holds a printed insert and the discs are held in place via a push button hub.

Most commonly seen as black the DVD case does come in a variety of other colours with the "clear case" allowing for a double-sided printed sleeve that can also be seen when the case is open. Double and even Multi-Disc cases are available using hinged swing trays.DVD cases can also hold a booklet up to 32 pages.

Whether you require a single DVD Case, a Slimline option or even a Multi-Disc set definitely consider adding a Slip Case or O-Card for an even greater impact! (see below)

C-Shells are a great impact resistant packaging solution. They are not only half the weight and thickness of a standard Jewel Case but also shatterproof making them ideal for mailouts.

',"#FFFFFF"); messages[14] = new Array('http://www.discfactory.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/ejector_case.jpg','

The Ejector Case is very innovative. The disc slides smoothly into the case and then to eject the small coloured lever is pressed and the trigger mechanism pops the disc out. This trigger is available in a number of different colours.

The case is made from polypropylene which like the "C-Shell" makes it lightweight and virtually unbreakable and so ideal for mailing as well.

The Slip Case is a printed cardboard cover that has an opening at one end. It is designed to enclose your CD Jewel case, DVD case, Blu-ray case, Digipak or Digifile.

It is often used to group Multi-Case sets but is equally popular on single disc products, giving real added-value to a product. It is especially eye-catching when combined with one or more of our professional finishing options such as "Matt Lamination", "Embossing" or perhaps "Spot UV"(see below).

',"#FFFFFF"); messages[19] = new Array('http://www.discfactory.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/ocard_info.jpg','The O-card is very similar to the Slip Case the difference being that the printed cardboard cover has an opening at "both" ends.

Matt Lamination is a process in which a thin transparent plastic film is applied to the surface of card packaging.

This gives the packaging even more rigidity, making it not only highly durable but making the treated surfaces water resistant too.

Matt Lamination also has the added benefit of giving the finished surface a soft "satin" finish that is really smooth to the touch.',"#FFFFFF"); messages[21] = new Array('http://www.discfactory.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/gloss_lamination_info.jpg','

Cello-wrapping give your product a highly professional finish and lets your customers know they are getting a brand new product.

Embossing creates raised areas by stamping them into the paper. This technique is commonly used to raise titles or logos but can also be used on its own to stunning effect.

This process is a great ways to give your packaging a tactile contrast and eye-catching finish, especially when used in conjunction with metallic inks or hot foiling!

',"#FFFFFF"); messages[27] = new Array('http://www.discfactory.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/debossing_info.jpg','

The opposite of "Embossing"... Debossing presses selected areas of the packaging downwards by stamping them into the paper. This technique is commonly used to raise titles or logos but can also be used on its own to stunning effect.

This process is a great ways to give your packaging a tactile contrast and eye-catching finish, especially when used in conjunction with metallic inks or hot foiling!

',"#FFFFFF"); messages[28] = new Array('http://www.discfactory.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/metallic_printing_info.jpg','

This allows for an amazing metallic shine. This finish is accomplished by actually putting metallic particles in the ink so they reflect light in a way that is not possible with regular inks.

Metallic printing is a great way to enhance the final print of both your disc and packaging - and you are not just limited to silver and gold - simply choose an ink from the Pantone Metallic Library.

Note: If you need a mirror-like metallic finish for your packaging, consider using Hot Foil Stamping instead.

',"#FFFFFF"); messages[29] = new Array('http://www.discfactory.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/serialization_info.jpg','

Serialization involves putting a unique serial number or code on each individual disc or packaging.

',"#FFFFFF"); messages[30] = new Array('http://www.discfactory.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/spot_uv_info.jpg','

Spot UV still uses a High Gloss UV varnish to give the packaging a ultra shiny finish but instead of having the entire packaging coated you can specify to have only specific areas coated which can create some amazing eye-catching effects.

For the packaging this is best used in conjunction with "Matt Lamination", with "Reverse Board Printing" also giving a nice effect. Spot UV is also an option the disc itself!

',"#FFFFFF"); messages[31] = new Array('http://www.discfactory.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/hot_foiling_info.jpg','

This is where a shiny metallic foil is bonded to the printed surface. This gives a striking mirror-like finish you can achieve in no other way.

',"#FFFFFF"); messages[32] = new Array('http://www.discfactory.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/reverse_board_print_info.jpg','

Reverse board printing provides a lovely natural matt finish as it is printing to the uncoated side of the card.

It does have a higher ink absorption rate than coated card but we take that into consideration when we setup our print press for these jobs to ensure great results.
