Case Transfers and Digital Processing Safeguard and Brand Product, Save on Labor

More and more studios are distributing their DVD titles in the eco-case, and the jewel case has been the industry standard for CDs since they first released. The problem with these two cases is that they cannot withstand the rigors of library use. Neither are drop-box safe and both wear out easily with frequent open-and-closes.

Because media buy-back stores will not accept product taken from public libraries, library labels digitally incorporated into product artwork is a proven theft deterrent. Libraries can also eliminate tedious sticker placement and offer patrons branded materials with Midwest Tape’s VIP processing. Our exclusive program incorporates library labels into vendor artwork, perfectly placed and customized to your specifications.

Midwest Tape offers a series of processing options that not only safeguard and brand your product, but also helps you save on labor and shelve product faster by eliminating in-house processing and storage of supplies. Here are some of our most popular options:
