As we approach the end of January i saw this short reflection and thought it was worth sharing:
Try to take life day by day, so that you don’t become overwhelmed.
Yesterday is gone and tomorrow hasn’t arrived yet.
Be grateful for the little things.
Enjoy nature.
And try not to get stressed over things you can’t control.

We’ll help you maintain this with our professional CD, DVD & BLU-RAY duplication.
Real people here to help you with your project every step of the way.
Call or email us for advice:

We look forward to working with you!

We are very proud to work with Bonnier Books on the production of the Audio CD for the series broadcast on BBC2 called Gone Fishing with Paul Whitehouse and Bob Mortimer.
These are still available to purchase and are a really funny extended audio version of the days spent fishing together,in various locations in the UK.

Bonnier Books are promoters of great and absorbing audio books .
Its worth having a look at their new titles available in hard copy book format as well as audio cd digpaks.

Chatting to a customer yesterday made me think about how much we are able to recycle and be eco-friendly, even in our industry which has traditionally been very plastic orientated.
We have promoted all our Eco-friendly products for some years and we only use FSC Certified and Sustainable Card and Paper.
In addition to that we recycle all incoming supplies boxes and use them to double box and protect our outgoing orders.
Our general ethos is to try to recycle anything we can …from bubble bags, & boxes to over-run discs / spoiled discs.
All of this makes sense to protect our environment and makes great business sense too .
Let me know if you have any other ideas that we can adopt ,which maybe i havent thought of !

Lots of people ask us what is the best way to send content to us for CD & DVD duplication.
The choice is yours; you lose no quality whichever way you decide to send it to us.
You can either send us a hard copy master in the post or upload your files to us here to create a master for you.
We have to have a physical master for the duplication process to work so if you send files to us we create a cd/dvd master from those.
We can create a master disc from WAv Files,ISO,IMG,NRG. DDP or Bin/Cue
If you choose to send your files to us electronically you receive a link from us by email after you check out and this allows you to upload to us by WeTransfer. If you choose this option on check out is costs either £10 or £25 depending on which files you are sending and whether you need metadata adding.
If you are in any doubt or need any help with your order just call us on 01702 530 354, or come onto live chat and we can clarify things for you.

We have massively decreased the price of all our card products for two reasons:
To give you a boost to buy in your merchandise to sell at your gigs; it will make your money go a bit further!
To promote the use of eco-friendly card products in our industry, which is historically very plastic orientated.
The price drop includes single card wallets, double card wallets, lancing packs and digipaks.

Fans love to have something tangible to take home after a live music event.
Make some cash and sell your Cd’s after a gig; dont make them too expensive and you’ll sell more.

This is the time to sell!
We have reduced the prices on all our card products which are the most popular at the moment. They are nice and compact and unbreakable, so great for taking to gigs.
You’ll find the prices by using the link below:

I thought it was worth reminding our customers that at Duplication Centre we also specialise in Waterproof Print.
https://www.waterproofprint.com
Using our State of the Art Richo Pro C7100sx we produce waterproof print in 300 gsm and 170 gsm for outdoor pursuits,outdoor cafes & restaurants, aqua sport and other marine needs, maps, walking & hiking, leaflets & flyers….and the occasional poster for a lost cat!!!
I have to add in here, post Covid pandemic, that our waterproof stock is perfect for any use that you have where you need to constanty wipe or clean the paper.
We are proud to say that among our customers we have the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds who use our waterproof books in their bird hides and pond dipping areas where wipeable paper is essential.
