Custom Vinyl Packaging

Make your vinyl release an experience: we create custom packaging for 7", 10" and 12" records — from double and triple gatefold sleeves to extras like posters and booklets. Add a bonus-CD or DVD in mini-pockets, design multi-opening sleeves, or take it further with die-cuts, pop-ups, and embossing for that ultimate wow effect. Working closely with our specialist team of designers and developers, we craft unique packages that don’t just hold your music — they invite fans to touch, admire, and collect.

Digibooks and Vinylbooks

Digibooks and Vinylbooks are ideal for special editions, anthologies and commemorative releases. Hard backed and perfect bound with the appearance and tactile feel of high quality art books. This packaging can combine the liner notes, photography and  artwork of traditional packaging with integrated housing for vinyl, CD, DVD and Blu-ray. Bespoke pockets and die-cuts for value-adding inserts with premium vegetable based inks and 100% FSC certified card and paper provide a luxury product with environmentally focused ISO certified packaging.

Diecuts and embossing

Die cutting is the process used for cutting out sections of card packaging. These can be simple shapes, such as circular holes or even lettering. Die cut a slipcase to reveal the digibook inside or a record sleeve to reveal inner sleeve artwork. Embossing and debossing is a technique that creates raised (or depressed), three-dimensional designs on card with specially manufactured stamps and can be combined with special ink and varnish to create unique designs.

Special inks and foiling

Custom packaging can be taken to another level with the addition of special print finishes such as pantones, fluorescent inks and spot varnish. Foil blocking gives a highly reflective, metalic finish to the print surface and though most frequently seen in gold or silver, hot foils are available in a range of colours. Special inks and hot foiling  combined with die-cuts or embossing and textured card opens up a range of design options.

recycled mboard and eco vinyl packaging

Custom eco-packaging

We generally use 100% FSC certified sustainable paper or card stock and recycled board for eco-friendly CD, vinyl and DVD packaging with environmentally friendly bio inks and varnishes. We can create laser cut card fitments to avoid the need for plastic foam in bespoke boxsets and replace plastic carriers with die-cut pockets or wallets to secure CDs and DVDs.
