Who is TED? They do wonderful short talks (www.ted.com/talks) on innovative topics - you need to check it out. They are relevant here because we worked with them to develop a 10 disc set spec that that has become increasingly popular with our other clients. True to form , it was an innovative and eco-friendly spec. The package is a powerhouse and fantastic was to present a 10 or even 12 disc set. It also happens to be relatively inexpensive.

Please note, the quantity needs to be at least 300 sets. Making 300 is almost the same cost as 500, and that's not far from to 1000 qty manufacturing costs. Its all set up costs at this quantity. You will save a little on the shipping for the smaller qty's.

*Because this set has 10 unique jackets, you can lower the costs by sharing a pantone ink if you want to use Pantones. Let us know the details of what you are thinking of!

Another approach is to do a slipcase set, with multiple volumes:

We created portfolio boxes several years ago. They have a shelf for the discs (usually held in paper windows) and a booklet or other items (postcards, artcards, etc) to go inside.

Consider also, a fun 5inch box like this:

Software boxes, of any size, also work:

Traypaks use a clear tray to hold the disc. We can use two 5inch trays per panel (gives the package a 10 inch height) to create a package to hold 2 to about 12 discs. We do recommend a slipcase with this product to hold the package snugly together. You can use a panel for a booklet if you like. If you have an odd number of discs, we can create a foam panel filler that we wrap with paper and print!

We can use either single disc 7 inch tray, or a double disc tray, and create tall 7inch traypacks (finished size is closer to 7.5)

If using single disc trays, you would need two -three volumes to hold 10 discs.

If using double disc trays, you could use one 10pp Tall Traypak, or use the multi-volume approach.

We can use 5 inch trays as well and the resulting package is a bit more compact - a 5 inch height. Booklets with this configuration would also want to be a similar 5 inch height.

No problem at all. Pockets and foam hubs are interchangeable with trays. Any of the configurations we have discussed can be done with either method. Disc Pockets can overlap a little more than foam hubs. Foam hubs like to be staggered on panels if doing a larger height.

As one other thought, you can also use a cross or tray shaped jacket or traypak instead of going across in a straight line. If you did 5 or 6 discs per package, you would need 2 volumes to hold 10-12 discs.
