Explore the Eco Friendly Options of CD Packaging

Whether you are a company searching for clients, a musician searching for a recording label or simply a motivational speaker searching for the right audience, making use of an impressively packed CD or DVD is one of most effective methods of conveying your message. All you require is a right company that specializes in CD packaging.
There is an old adage that ‘a book should not be judged by its cover’. Unfortunately, this adage does not apply to today’s intensively competitive world. Despite of the high calibre or superlative quality of the product, it is the packaging that succeeds in delivering the enticing effect that influences people to buy your product. Packaged-oriented consumers have their own standards of evaluating a product. The fact applies to the CD industry as well and that is why CD packaging is given more importance as compared to the CDs themselves.
There are many companies that offer standard tape to CD conversion, CD/DVD duplication and replication services, and packaging for CDs. Some innovative companies also offer environmentally friendly packaging styles and designs. If you are planning to opt for earth friendly packaging designs then you have two major options before you.
Your first option is to reduce the amount of plastic that is being included in the packaging being used by you for your DVDs or CDs. Packaging industry has always focused on making use of plastic as the material is cheaper as compared to other options. Normally, a jewel case made up of polystyrene is used for the packaging of DVDs and CDs. Instead of going for this kind of packaging, you can go for Digipak, which is made up of thick printing card and contains only plastic shelves for holding CDs or DVDs.
Your next option is to completely get rid of the plastic and make use of packaging made entirely from the thick printing card. If you want trays then you can make use of the ones made up of Paper foam, which is a completely recyclable mixture of cellulose and starch. A large number of artists are using this product in the packaging of their music CDs and DVDs.
You can make use of internet to locate the companies that offer services like CD or DVD packaging, Tape to CD conversion, CD replication and more. Just check with them to know if they offer going green solutions.
