13" Dual Pocket Outer Sleeve
The storage pocket of the sleeve will be 13" x 13". This is for those very large gate-fold albums (like Mofi/Blue Notes/Tone Poets) and very narrow box sets approx. 3/8" thick, appearing on the market lately.
This is a true archival product.
Our CPP sleeves have excellent properties including clear transparency, scratch resistance, heat resistance, and moisture proof. CPP (cast polypropylene) film has a clear advantage over standard BOPP, polyethylene, Mylar or PVC sleeves.
What are the advantages of cast polypropylene? CPP has higher tear and impact resistance, better cold temperature performance and moisture transmission properties than standard sleeves. CPP won't turn cloudy over the normal life of the product, unlike other films. CPP is very hard to crease unlike BOPP and has some stretch forgiveness.
Cast film is usually used in applications that require superior optical properties such as gloss, transparency, surface smoothness, and good tear resistance.
Are they a little pricey compared to other low cost sleeves? Yes, but they are a true premium product to protect your expensive, irreplaceable record collection for years to come. No other product will give you this amazing clarity.

We no longer collect EU VAT in our shop. This is due to ongoing issues with the IOSS EU VAT system in many EU states. It's creating lots of extra work for us and frustrating customers so we have decided to stop collecting VAT until the system is working properly.
On the bright side it means that we can offer better shipping prices with DPD on orders over 2 kg.
Orders are held for 24 hours before the fulfilment process starts to allow customers to change or cancel the order.
Orders usually dispatch within 48 hours, but depending on order volume at the time it could take longer.
Orders are not fulfilled during weekend and bank holidays.
Please note that Royal Mail 24 and 48 refers to the transit time and not delivery time from when the order is being placed.
If you need the order urgently please drop us a line and we can fast track it. Usually that means that we can get it out the same day.
