As you know, I like to feature popular packaging options here on this site.  One of my clients recently asked to go up a step from the Trimpak (what I call the “square” clam shell case http://tinyurl.com/5wa7s8)

While the Trimpak is square and can be filed well on a shelf, this client wanted something a bit more robust for their library of DVDs.

The result was the clear plastic polybox cases.

If you think about it, it’s really the equivalent of a slimline jewel case . . . but it’s of pliable plastic, very suitable for mailing as well as filing.

It’s a step-up in look, and consequently costs a bit more, but it may be worth your consideration.

Also, check out other posts in “David’s Blog” for some eco-friendly “Going Green” media replication tips that actually are less expensive than their standard counterpart:
