SLEEVES, INSERTS ETC.
We have a close working relationship with 2 UK based printers, both of which supply the pressed record industry with printed sleeves. The print and construction quality of your sleeves will match those found in a record store.
There is a broad range on options and finishes available; from Spot Gloss UV, Gloss UV, Gloss or Matt Lamination, Anti-Scuff HD Matt Lamination, Die cut holes and more.
Whether you need a standard 12” record sleeve, a gatefold 7” sleeve, or perhaps printed polylined inner sleeves? 10” album sleeve? All these and more are possible. We can also supply printed inserts and booklets.
For some of the options mentioned above there is no minimum quantity; for others the minimum quantity is 50 units.
All artwork is meticulously checked before being submitted to print to ensure the best possible result. There is no additional fee for this service, and we do not add a handling fee.

CENTRE LABELS
When it comes to printed centre labels we have several options available, either via our print partners, or in-house.
Option 1: professionally (digitally) printed on Graphic Vellum Permanent Split Back (self adhesive, uncoated material, 70gsm).
Option 2: printed in-house on a desktop digital printer. We can offer matt, gloss or textured paper. The standard paper colour for all of the labels is white. However, for matt and textured, there are coloured paper options such as yellow, red, blue, green, black, cream, grey, etc.
Option 3: print the labels yourself. The matt white paper labels are included in the cost of our lathes, and we can supply a template.

ON-BODY PRINT
For something extra special we can also print directly onto the vinyl itself. There are so many possibilities – from the phosphorescent beauty we made for Behemoth; the fractured white design for Chelsea Wolfe; the text based design for both Ulver and Meechy Darko; or the colourful ’shield’ print for Gate Master.
