Blu-ray may be all well-and-good for the major motion picture studios, but independent videographers and film makers don’t often see a cost/benefit number that lines up in their favor. The result of that is a strong demand for DVD5 and DVD9 replication by the ‘indie’ industry.

Despite those realities there’s still an alternative, so at Precision Disc we’re please to provide Blu-ray Duplication services in a wide range of packaging solutions.

Packaging options include the standard blue Blu-ray cases with printed paper inserts and, of course, any of our popular Digipak and Eco-Sleeves. We’ve also got some interesting ‘combo’ packages that feature DVD5 or DVD9 *plus* a duplicated Blu-ray companion disc.

That being said, if there’s a specific packaging solution you’re looking for but don’t see it published on our website, just give us a call. The fact that we have our own in-house commercial printing division (which includes digital printing, offset printing, variable printing, die-cutting, folding, gluing and packaging) means that we can provide the custom solution that you’re looking for.

This month we resurrected an old favorite DVD CD Duplication package…

It’s versatile. It’s sleek. It’s practical. It’s eco-friendly. It’s the ever-popular CS100 Eco-Sleeve – and we’re offering 15% off our regular retail price this month!

Sign up to our VIP Member Program to take advantage of this offer – it’s completely free and it’s really simple to join up.

Simply get a CS100 DVD CD Duplication quote from our website quote system and then take 15% off the net price. The discount does not apply to applicable tax, shipping or any other items over-and-above the CS100 web-quote price. Also, no rush orders please.

As with all of our package prices, this special offer includes full colour disc print, disc content duplication or replication (depending on the quantity),  all set-ups, film, assembly and even barcode and wrap should you require them.

Questions? Comments? Don’t hesitate to give us a shout – we hope that we can be of service to you!

Celebrating our 10th year in business, Precision Disc Manufacturing Corp. is the sole DVD CD Replication plant in Western Canada. With offices and manufacturing facilities located in Surrey, BC (a suburb of Vancouver) in Canada, we ship to clients throughout North America each and every day.

 There’s a lot more to Precision Disc than just discs – did you know we’re also a commercial print shop?

With so much importance being put on the packaging products that go along with our discs, applying ourselves to the more traditional print market was an obvious and natural progression for us! We print posters, stickers, flyers, postcards, brochures, business cards and much more!

We also provide variable print services, which is a form of on-demand printing where elements or information within the graphic design can actually change on each printed page without interrupting or slowing down the printing process. Variable printing is an extension of digital printing technology which integrates a computer database with the printer via specialized software.

At Precision Disc Manufacturing Corp. we produce variable print for clients on our state-of-the-art and eco-friendly HP Indigo digital printing presses. With print quality and colour reproduction that often rivals (if not exceeds) that of traditional offset print, your product will always look its best!

The KBA 74 Karat is considered to be one of the ‘greenest’ print presses on the planet and, while we definitely require an environmentally-friendly printer for our product line of DVD and CD eco-packaging solutions, the KBA 74 Karat also delivers very high quality print reproduction for our discerning clientele.

“We’re delighted to have been able to purchase this particular press.” states company president
Paul Durnie, “It fits perfectly into our mandate for environmentally responsible technology and processes, and it’s the perfect fit for growing our print division and new ‘green’ product offerings. The press-sheet size, quick make-ready and printer speed made the 74 Karat a must-have for us.”

For a 29” printer of this calibre, the KBA 74 Karat has a very compact footprint (12’-9” long, 7’-3” wide and 7’-0” tall) and everything about this printer is designed for efficiency and user-friendliness. For example, the machine holds two cassettes of imaging plates (sufficient to print 10 jobs) which are imaged and changed automatically within the printer.

A complete job change with automated plate change, imaging and inking only takes about 15 minutes, with a maximum of just ten make-ready sheets. That’s quite amazing for an offset printer, when you think of the waste that is prevented by such efficient operation and technology.

And speaking of efficiency, the KBA 74 Karat has a maximum production speed of 10,000 sheets per hour, with waterless offset plates that can allow print-runs of up to 100,000 copies.

This press does away with paper waste, ink sludge, toxic cleaners and chemical developers that are typically associated with offset printing. Through its use of soy based inks, completely waterless printing technology, and inline aqueous coating, the KBA 74 Karat provides the highest quality eco-friendly print solutions you’ll find anywhere without sacrificing print quality one bit!

When combined with Precision Disc’s existing Indigo printers, not only does the KBA 74 Karat enhance our print production capacity and speed, the 29” press sheet also increases the number of products we can provide.

Printer features and highlights: 

• Waterless offset – brilliant colour, sharp dots
• Soft reproduction of the finest gradients
• No ghosting
• Superb solids
• In-line water based (aqueous) finishing.

• Resolution: 100 dots/mm = 2,540 dpi
• RIP: Creo Brisque

Precision Disc

The evolution of digital printing has revolutionized the printing industry. While traditional offset printing is considered an industrial process, digital printing is a computerized process – which by its very nature is less wasteful and less demanding on resources compared to conventional print. Less waste + less consumption = a more environmentally friendly method of printing.

Digital printing has eliminated many stages of traditional printing that were time, energy and resource-consuming. This includes processes that were accompanied by liquid waste, solid waste and fumes – some of which actually require specialist treatment for disposal. Additionally, digital printing eliminates the use of chemistry for film and plate processing, as well as the substantial waste of materials used in the ‘make ready’ stage of offset printing.

Digital Printing Eliminates ‘Make Ready’

With an offset printer you cannot simply press a button and immediately begin printing. Time is required to prepare the machine to run a specific job which includes a lot of wasteful ‘test’ printing onto paper. This isn’t simply down-time for the machine as the time and expense of the make-ready process is passed through to the client in the cost of the finished goods.

With digital printing there isn’t any ‘make ready’ required and, due to this, digital printing allows for much shorter run lengths and quicker turnaround times. This in turn leads to less consumption and waste – it is estimated that prior to the advent of digital printing over 50 percent of all print was thrown away unused.
