Popular Trends for Vinyl Album Packaging

Between our clients’ creativity and our manufacturing ability, we make some pretty cool titles that you don’t see elsewhere. If you see features on titles we’ve made, or from a vintage title made elsewhere, we can try to incorporate that for you in your manufacturing. For example, one of our clients wanted a title like the Gorillaz hardcover vinyl book. We were able to produce a title for them based on this concept. Of course it helps to have a budget like a well known band to produce a similar title. Below are some of the latest trends we’ve made for vinyl records and mixed media sets.

Linen Vinyl LPs  with Foil Stamping
Swinging Sleeves with Center Hole Cut Outs
Fiberboard Material Swinging Sleeves (Manila Color)
Parchment Vellum Inner Sleeves or Fly Sheets
Vinyl Books (Riveted Hardcover with Swinging Sleeve Pages and Glued on End Panels) (like Gorillaz)
Side Loading Rigid Slipcase Box Sets, Wrapped with Linen
Spot Gloss / Spot Matte
Box Sets, 2 piece top & bottom (like NIN)
Box Sets, Hinged (Pizza Box Style)

Up and Coming Trend – Video Screens

Up and Coming trends might include adding a video screen to a box set. These are LCD screen that we embed in the packaging and program the video player buttons to work with your video. You might have a concert video, for example. As a bonus, the video can be changed out at any time with a usb upload.
