Packaging your cassette is important, it's the first thing a customer will notice when picking up your tape at the merch table. At Duplication.ca we have tons of packaging options, so we don't blame you for being a little overwhelmed. This email is to help narrow down what's the right packaging for your album! You can find all of these items on the online store and the Dupe Shop, or you can add them to your order via our cassette duplication calculator. Let's get started.
NORELCO CASSETTE CASES The Classic
Norelcos are the golden standard for cassette packaging. The regular transparent cases allow your fans to peep your beautiful J-card art immediately. We also have opaque and tinted colour cases, giving your artwork a colourful glow that will help it stand out from the pack.
Let your packaging do all the talking! This wraparound cardboard case eliminates the need of a J-card. They're fully printable and compatible with inkjet, silkscreen, and stamps. Once printed they are glued shut so you can snuggly fit your cassette in without the tape accidentally slipping out or getting stuck. Available in chipboard, glossy white, or matte white.
These boxes are very similar to Norelcos but with malleable plastic. In addition to them being tough and durable, our Norelco cases are super transparent, not the foggy design from yester-year. Their lightweight and thin design makes them optimal for cheaper mailorder.
CLEAR VINYL CASSETTE ALBUM Something for the collectors!
These larger cassette albums are similar to the old audiobook packaging style, meaning they fit wonderfully on your shelf or bookcase. Since the case is transparent you can display a two-sided trapsheet - graphics on both sides! It also has a slit on the inside front panel for inserting a card or other material. The album snaps closed ensuring protection for your cassette and inserts.
The outer overlay features an unsealed spine, just like a DVD case, so your front cover wraps around the entire case. There is enough space when the case is closed to also house a lyric sheet booklet, download cards, and bonus goodies like pins and patches. Perfect for special edition releases. Also available in an opaque black!
PRINTED SLIPCASES We know you like cases, so we encased your case in a case
Full colour printed slipcases are great for multi-cassette releases. They snuggly hold Norelco boxes together, but are still easily accessible though the side opening. We have slipcases that can hold up to 4 Norelco cases, perfect for boxsets! And now we have slipcases intended just for one cassette case, working like a book jacket. It's a great way for adding extra artwork or liner notes to your release.
These impeccably designed boxes are are a great alternative to our standard O-card sleeves, but with the added bonus of a larger surface area for printing and liner notes. When the box is closed it's an all-encompassing case for cassette, but when unfurled its cross shape (hence the name) reveals a huge amount of printing space for your design and liner notes. Moreover, double-sided printing allows for twice as much space and an opportunity to expand your artistic vision. Available in 15pt board and upgradeable to an even thicker 18pt board.
All these products, and way way more, are available on our online store. You can also combine them with your cassette duplication orders. If you don't see the package listed on our quote page, simply add them to the notes and we'll swap 'em in!
