CD Replication is done via the process of glass mastering and stamping. This is in contrast to CD Duplication where burning technology is used to create smaller quantity runs. CD & DVD replication is manufactured for quantities above 500 units.

Why Choose CD Replication?
Many people use the terms CD Duplication and CD Replication interchangeably. However, they are actually two different processes.
Both are similar in that they are used to put data, video or audio onto a CD or DVD but that is where the similarities end. CD Replication is used for runs of 500 and over and CD Duplication is used for smaller productions. (less than 500)


The Replication Process
With CD Replication we use the sub-master (cd-r or dvd-r) to create a glass master which in turn allows a set of stampers to be made.
Injection-molding makes exact clones of the master, using the stampers. A coat of reflective aluminium is added then sealed with a
protective coat of lacquer hardened by ultraviolet light. After this the discs we send the discs through another process for the disc
label to be added. A process called offset printing is used to add the label which produces the highest quality print for replicated discs.
Offset printing is 175 lines per inch (vs. 85-135 lines per inch for silkscreen). The more lines per inch the better the quality.

Audio, data and video sub masters need to be written in DISK-AT-ONCE MODE (DAO). All sub masters must be checked for errors / glitches - please check for more information on sending your masters.
