CD Sleeves Printing

CD Sleeves in One 5 by 5 Inch Die-Cut Size

One product covers this category: a 5 by 5 inch die-cut card sleeve that holds a CD or DVD, printed full color on the front. Your choices are the stock, the finish and the count, from 100 sleeves for $438.25 down to about $0.20 a sleeve at 10,000, printed in 5 business days. Musicians, software teams, churches and conference organizers use it for albums, installs, sermon recordings and recorded sessions.

A branded sleeve tells the person opening the mailer that you planned the package. A plain white one reads like an afterthought, on the doorstep or the merch table.

Seven Stocks and Two Finishes

Pick the stock by where the sleeve goes, then add the finish.

Every stock takes the standard finish or a high gloss UV coating on the printed front.

Who Reaches for Custom CD Sleeves

An independent artist can run an album in sleeves, a software company can tuck them into product shipments, and a wedding photographer can deliver a highlight reel in a sleeve that matches the couple's theme.

A sleeve slips into a standard envelope with the disc and weighs a fraction of a plastic case, which suits a church, a school or a small studio mailing recordings.

Picking a Stock That Fits the Job

A 16pt gloss card guards the disc in the mail and feels substantial in hand. Gloss with high gloss UV brings out album art and photography, while an uncoated or linen stock keeps corporate and training discs quiet and professional.

Trade show giveaways can go bold and shiny. Internal software distribution usually wants clean and quiet. Either way you're not locked into one look, and you can match the sleeve to the audience instead of the other way around.

Getting the Artwork Right the First Time

Start from a layout sized to the sleeve so your trim and bleed line up, keep important text and logos back from the edge, and build your file in CMYK at 300 DPI so the color lands the way it looks on screen.

One CD-specific habit saves a lot of grief: leave the disc opening area clear of anything you can't afford to lose. Nothing gets tucked behind the disc or clipped at the cut. If you don't run design software, you can build the whole thing in the browser and upload your images directly.

Pairing Sleeves With the Rest of the Package

Sleeves rarely travel alone. Matching CD covers round out an album presentation, and a die cut label seals each sleeve with a branded sticker. If you're boxing discs alongside physical product, our packaging products printing covers the boxes, wraps, and inserts that finish the set.
