Sleeves
In order to protect your records, ever record must be packed into at least an inner bag - unless a discobag is selected (discobags are outer sleeves made of carton which is glossy on the inside, so an inner sleeve is not necessary). We can offer either plastic or paper inner bags (paper inners can be plain white, plain black or printed).
Spine
We can manufacture outer sleeves with or without a spine. We recommend spines if you want to print the band name and album title, for example, on the side of the sleeve.
You can fit 2 x standard weight records into a 3mm spined outer sleeve or 3 x standard weight records into a 5mm spined outer sleeve.
We recommend a 5mm spined outer sleeve if you wish to fit 2 x heavy weight records into an outer sleeve.
Splatter Vinyl
Splatter vinyl records is where assorted colors of vinyl are sprinkled onto a background color and then pressed. See our gallery. The splatter vinyl record looks best when using clear vinyl as the background that way the colored sprinkles of vinyl stand out. No 2 records are same.
Stampers
A Stamper is what is used to press your record and what puts the music on the vinyl.
