CD DVD Recycling

CD and DVD Recycling is a relatively new service, offered by several companies and organisations. As a CD and DVD Duplication and Replication company, we feel it is important to inform our customers and the public about the various services on offer.

The Little Bazaar takes environmental issues very seriously. We currently offer Eco-friendly packaging for CD and DVD Replication, which are completely biodegradable and are manufactured with materials from sustainable sources. We also offer carbon offsetting for CD and DVD Duplication and Replication. We estimate that between 0.1 and 0.5 tonnes of carbon dioxide are produced by CD and DVD orders, depending on the size. We usually offset a full tonne per order, just to make sure.

For our CD and DVD Duplication and blank media printing services, we use a lot of blank CDs and DVDs. We usually end up having to discard a significant quantity of discs and cases that do not pass quality control. Although it is a small number compared to the quantity that is not discarded, it still adds up to quite a lot. We are now happy to say that we are able to recycle these materials, and you can too.

The following website describes companies and organisations who offer recycling of materials used in the CD and DVD Duplication and Replication processes. Rather than throwing away CDs and DVDs, why not recycle them?

What\'s the difference?

CD duplication is the copying of data from one disc to another through the process of burning, especially in large commercial quantities.

Though many people use the terms duplication and replication interchangeably, there are gross differences between the two. Though both processes transfer information onto CDs or DVDs, duplication is the process of burning dots that mimic what we call pits onto a CD surface and is normally undertaken by Duplication Companies. The device which does the burning is called a burner can be inexpensively found on home PCs.

CD replication on the other hand obtains an imprint from a glass master and stamps the data in binary form ontp the disc. In duplication, the duplicate is of the same or inferior quality as the original. No attempt is made to change the quality or constitution of the data transferred. CD Duplication is also cheap to do and therefore the favorite of computer enthusiasts who don\'t have the large budget to do replication.
