How overseas shipping is rocking the music industry

One of the many detrimental effects of the COVID-19 pandemic has been the reshaping of international shipping transit. Shipping docks have understandably gone through labour shortages as the virus spread, causing delays, bottlenecks, and storage issues. What shipping companies have found is that businesses are willing to pay extra for their goods to ship in a timely manner, and as a result they’re raising shipping prices to all-time highs across the board.

This isn’t an issue that’s just affecting the shipping industry, but all industries that rely on international products. Whether that means computer components or the plastic funnel in your coffee machine, companies are seeing delays and rising costs due to opportunistic changes in the price of shipping containers.

So what does this mean to musicians and those running labels? You may notice a slight price increase in the cassette industry sometime in the future to offset these rising costs. Duplication.ca is holding out for as long as possible before we need to increase our prices. Whatever we can do to keep our prices as low and affordable as they currently are, we’ll do it. Of course, there may come the day when a price increase is necessary, so we would suggest to place your orders soon if you want to stay ahead of the curve. We also suggest early orders to beat the crowd once tours and live shows really kick into high gear.

We've always been contrarian since the inception of the company by pushing analog during a digital era. We say to hell with increasing shipping costs, we want our clients to save money on cassettes and CDs, not lose money. That's why we're holding a flash sale this weekend where you can save 10% off cassette duplication and 15% off CD replication.

CD pressing may also be affected by the prices of overseas shipping, but the foreboding current issue is the polycarbonate shortage in the plastics industry. We reported on the shortage last January, and fortunately we still have a healthy flow of polycarbonate coming into the Duplication.ca warehouse. We are able to manufacture CD and DVD pressing at full capacity, with quick turnaround and high-quality print and packaging.
