UPC Bar Code

A bar code is a must for retail sales. Stores won't sell products without them. If you were to buy one from the UCC, not only would it cost you $750, but the process would also take several weeks. Not when you order a CD replication package from Disc Makers. We'll give you a genuine unique UPC bar code that can be tracked by any distributor or retailer inventory system for only $20. And once you register your bar code with SoundScan (which is free and easy to do), your sales records will be tracked by the industry leader.

SoundScan Registration

We'll register your bar code with Nielsen Soundscan, so all your retail CD sales will be credited to you.

Spine Labels

Spine labels make your Jewel Case and DVD Case products look more professional (and some stores require them). Add a $50 setup charge and 6¢ per disc (includes label printing and application). For spine labels on board products, call your product specialist.

Jewel Case and DVD Sleeves

Retailers love CDs and DVDs in sleeves because of their premium look. Our sleeves are printed on14 pt. C1S board and feature full-color printing on outside, with your choice of high-gloss or matte UV coating. 1,000 for just $390. Add 10¢ ea. for insertion. Learn more.

Make a Statement with 4/4 Printing

Our standard jewel box packages include 4/1 (pronounced “four over one”) insert printing, which in print-shop-speak means full-color printing on the outside of the folder and black and white on the inside. If you want color on both sides of the jewel box folder, go 4/4. You’ll be as colorful as you want to be -– at a price within your budget. Call your product specialist for a quote.
