cd & dvd duplication - Heartland Productions

We can duplicate any number of discs from one to thousands.

Many jobs can be completed within two working days,
and a SAME DAY SERVICE may also be available.

How are copies made?

 There are two processes available, burning (or duplication) and manufacturing.

From your original CD, DVD or video, we can produce any number of copies. 1-thousands.  Various print and packaging options are available.

Burning

Your master disc is duplicated on to premium CD-R or DVD-R discs using high-speed duplicating machines incorporating top quality Pioneer drives.

This process is generally suitable for quantities of up to 1000 and where turnaround is required in days rather than weeks.

The machines will duplicate exactly what is on your original disc without any loss of quality. It is not possible to make any changes to the master disc during duplication.

Printing onto discs

The discs have a white ink-jet printable surface allowing good quality printing of text, graphics & images. However, when preparing artwork please try to avoid large areas of a single colour, particularly black, as this can adversely affect print quality. Please note that we do not print or apply paper labels to discs.

If you don’t have finished artwork, just email your text & images with a rough idea how you want them laid out, and we’ll do the rest. We’ll email you a proof and if that’s OK, we’ll send you a printed disc for final checking.

Ink jet printing prices

The cost for ink-jet printing is calculated separately from the duplication price, and is dependent on how much print covers the disc. There are four options available.

On disc printing - Ink Jet option 1
On disc printing - Ink Jet option 2
On disc printing - Ink Jet option 3
On disc printing - Ink Jet option 4
Option 1
£0.12
Option 2
£0.24
Option 3

Option 4
£0.48

Notes:
These pictures are for illustrative purposes only. The actual amount you pay will be subject to sight of your artwork. Options only applicable to ink jet printing and not to screen or litho print, where no such restrictions apply. 
Printing prices are per disc irrespective of quantity and exclude VAT. Printing is directly onto the white surface of the discs. We do not print or apply paper labels. Print set-up charge from £15.00 + VAT. Includes proof disc. Changes and amendments will be chargeable. All print related costs are subject to sight of supplied artwork and layout requirements.

If time permits, once we have your original disc and artwork, we will produce a proof disc so that you can approve both the print and content prior to duplication.

Printed covers, leaflets & inserts for CD jewel cases & DVD library cases

Notes: Prices are per cover/insert and exclude VAT. Printing of paper parts is subcontracted to a local printer. However you may supply your own printed material for us to insert. An insertion charge of 5p per item will apply. If you require print dimensions for paper parts please contact us.

Manufacturing

Manufacturing is generally suitable for larger runs of a 1000 plus, although the minimum run is 500 units. The process involves the factory producing another master called a ‘glass master’ and the copies are ‘pressed’ or stamped’ on a production line. Turnaround times are typically between 10 to 21 days from proof signoff.

Depending on order requirements, manufacturing is normally cheaper than burning, particularly on runs of 1000 or more.

Apart from cost, the main advantage of manufacturing is in disc printing. Top quality five colour process litho or screen printing is available with none of the restrictions of ink-jet printing. There is also a very large range of printed parts & packaging options to choose from.
