The Jacket (or sleeves as they are also called) - CDs in jackets are the most popular items that we make here at Atomic Disc. Why you ask? It's because they're so darn cute and economical. Identical to vinyl jackets, only smaller. Custom fit for one CD. High quality rigid cardboard printed sleeves with a smooth satin finish. There is even a little extra room to slip in an insert if you want to print some lyrics up! And after they're packaged in our unique crystal clear eco-bags, these custom CD sleeves look pretty stellar. The competition uses that icky shrinkwrap, you'll be glad you won't. Our CD Jackets use 100% recyclable, FSC® certified materials and are printed using green friendly ink. This is CD printing at its best!

Duplication (500 or less)

Duplicated discs (often called burned discs) are made by burning tiny holes in the dye layer of a recordable CD-R. It is the same process as when you burn a disc on your home computer. This is more cost effective for small runs and takes much less time to produce. We use the highest quality CD-Rs on the market to ensure maximum quality and compatibility. There is not really any audible difference between replication and duplication. There might be a small percentage of older CD players or car stereos that is unable to play duplicated CDs. This is rare, but it does occasionally happen.

Replication (500 or more)

Replicated discs (often called pressed discs) are made by first creating a glass master, then stampers that make exact clones using high-tech injection-molding. A coat of reflective aluminum is added and finally it gets sealed with a protective coat of lacquer hardened by ultraviolet light. Because of this extensive set up process, it is common to require a minimum of 500 discs for replication.
