After putting together a package of digital media, whether that package is music, graphics or software, a shipping solution is required in order to ensure not only the safe transit of the media but also the integrity.
There are several options for mailers available when searching for the right DVD mailer for sale, but the choice not only is based in the look of the mailer or the simple usage; knowing the type of packaging for the DVD media itself is also important.
DVD media packaging generally falls into one of three types; the first, the simple sleeve, which can be paper, vinyl or sturdier paperboard. Most mailing requires the third type, since it prevents the bending and even breaking of the DVD disk.
The second most common type of DVD media packaging is the ever familiar jewel case. Although the design of available jewel cases have slimmed down over the years, it still is a requirement when looking for DVD mailers to consider the size and strength that a mailer will need to be in order to house a DVD with a jewel case. Usually, cardboard or paperboard mailers serve this type of media best, and there are options for styles.
The third type of DVD media is very familiar with everyone who has ever rented or purchased a movie, the Amaray case or dvd mailer box, which is the plastic casing that either holds graphic art representing the media or, it can just be a blank covering. Regardless of the look of the Amaray case, special packaging is of course required to handle the larger size, and the fact that there is some loose give inside between the disk and the case cover. These packages also need to be solid enough to make sure the interior case won’t crack. Even though it’s impossible to completely prevent ever having a damaged or cracked disk during shipping, a proper package will greatly lessen the possibility.
Lastly, when choosing paperboard products, rest assured that most packages offer recycled versions.
