We can press records with laser-etched designs. The designs are lasered onto the lacquer. From that lacquer a negative, positive and stampers are made. The side with the laser-etched design does not have any audio.
A laser-etched record will give the best result if there are not too many large surfaces in the design. You can make up the design as a simple black and white document, the 'black' will be the area which will be lasered. Please use the template for supplying us the design, to make sure it is centred (the template can be found under artwork specs). The design can be supplied as a HighRes PDF, Jpeg or in Adobe illustrator format. We press a laser-etched record with a label on both sides (to prevent a warped record and pulled up middle hole) and preferably on 180-gram vinyl.
Lasered vinyl
UV Print
With a UV print you can combine the best of both worlds: excellent audio on one side and a sharp, unique print on the flip side. We advise to print on clear or white vinyl, as these give the best results. For more information about the options, please contact us on info@recordindustry.com
