Reasons behind the popularity of Digipack CD packaging

As Digipacks are made of soft cardboards they don't crack like jewel cases do. In fact, after prolong use the paper begins to peel apart and separate and can be used later after recycling.

The trays in Digipacks are soft and thus provide full protection to the outer layer of the CD and DVD discs from getting scratched.

Digipack look nice as it has got more space to show the creativity of the graphic designers. Moreover, anything that is packaged differently has a better chance of attracting users and standing out from the crowd.

Digipak packaging is quite durable as most of the Digipak CD packaging service providers coat the raw printed paper with a protective UV matte or UV gloss finish.

One strong reason for the increased popularity of Digipak is due to its being a more environmentally friendly packaging solution as compared to jewel cases because they are usually made of recycled papers. The printed cardboards used in Digipak are biodegradable as well as recyclable.

In a Digipak packaging apart from the discs it can also store booklet and poster pockets.

The best thing about Digipak packaging is its various configuration options. Here from a single CD or DVD disc folder to compilation binders or boxed sets can be ordered which is not possible with other forms of packaging such as jewel cases, unprinted wallets, CD slim cases or calm shells.

Moreover, Digipak can be decorated with elaborate graphics inside and out. Due to use of high quality of graphically versatile paper in Digipaks, text and images in bright vibrant colors can be embossed in glossy finish.

Even though Digipacks are bit more expensive as compared to traditional liner notes and jewel cases, it is the positive side of this CD packaging option that has helped in making it popular in the market.
