DigiPak

Definition of a digipak (Digi-Pak)!

A Digipak is used mainly for CD singles or special editions of CD albums. The style of a digipak differs from a normal CD case (Jewel Cases) as they typically consist of a gatefold paperboard or card stock outer binding. These cases are capable of holding more than one plastic tray to hold the CD/DVD.

Example of Digipak!


















There are various different examples that can be used. For example the one shown is a fairly popular design with a front cover, an inside flap and 6 overal sides. Whereas the digipak for The Gorillaz - 'Demon Days' album has a front cover and 3 inside flaps that fold out, including the front cover, create the shape of a vertical cross showing the 4 band members images around the cd tray, which is in the centre. Also may add attention to the actual CD!
