What's the difference between the packaging options?
Eco-Sleeve is the most lightweight, economical and environmentally friendly package option.
Eco-Wallets are a larger version of the eco-sleeves as they have more panels and allow for single or multi-pocket options for extra discs or inserts, booklets and posters. They are compact and lightweight too.
Digipaks are an all cardboard package with a plastic tray glued to an inside panel. These also come in single or multi-tray options for including extra discs and pockets for inserts, booklets or posters.
Shrink wrap vs no shrink wrap: Shrink wrap provides protection when shipping and carrying to and from gigs and mailing out.

What finishes do you offer on printed packaging?
Our recommended finish on any paper stock packaging option is an aqueous (water-based) coating. Just about every printed jacket you’ll find in a store is finished this way. We also encourage it because it’s the most eco-friendly option. In addition to an aqueous coating, we offer a matte finish which gives a softer, muted look. We also offer a UV gloss finish which results in a very shiny appearance, and there’s always the option to leave your packaging uncoated.
