Obi-Strips

For decades the North American market has been missing out on a great element of Japanese record packaging: the obi-strip. These strips were used for CD and vinyl releases to give the customer extra information not found on the back of the case. Not only were they informative, but they added to the design of the packaging, often incorporating or extending the imagery found in the album artwork. We can print thick 15pt cardstock obi-strips vertically or horizontally in full CMYK so you can incorporate it with your artwork as you wish. These are a great way to get your CD to stand out from the pack of standard CD cases.

Belly band obi-strips wrap around the front and back of the CD case.
