Pressed for the trad session, the Big Burns Supper, the album launch at The Stove.

Plan backwards from your gig or festival date

Dumfries and Galloway runs at its own pace. A folk trio recording at home and pressing 100 CDs for a run of pub sessions across DG. A singer-songwriter launching at The Stove or Theatre Royal Dumfries. A Kirkcudbright artist who treats the album sleeve as much like a piece of art as the music inside it. The Big Burns Supper crowd through January and February, the regional folk festivals through summer. Short runs, premium print, on the doorstep before the date in the diary.

From audio and artwork approval to finished CDs at the door, the door-to-door window is 13 working days — twelve for duplication, full-colour CD print and assembly in Glasgow, plus one for Royal Mail Special Delivery to any DG postcode. We press an hour and a half north of you, which makes Glasgow the closest mainland pressing point to the whole of south-west Scotland. Whether the address is central Dumfries (DG1, DG2), Castle Douglas (DG7), Kirkcudbright (DG6), Newton Stewart (DG8), Annan (DG12), Lockerbie (DG11) or Stranraer (DG9), it’s next-working-day, tracked and signed for. Tighter window for a festival weekend? Express is £30 extra and prioritises your slot, but message us first to confirm capacity. We don’t take express orders we can’t hit.

Want to feel the print quality before committing to a full run? Order a proof copy — a fully assembled CD pressed using your own audio and artwork, posted to any Dumfries or DG address. £4.99 covers Royal Mail postage. No commitment to a full run, no follow-up sales pitch.

05 / In their words

What artists say about us.

Real bands · real releases

Absolutely first class service. Professionally printed and produced CDs. Tom assisted through the whole process. A true gentleman. I would have no hesitation in recommending CD Unity to anyone at any level in the music industry.

Excellent service from the initial steps to my 200 albums being delivered to the doorstep. Mega happy with the CDs — great price, great quality printing and audio. I couldn’t recommend this service enough.

A fantastic job producing CDs for our album. I had a short time frame to get them produced in, and the company managed to get high-quality CDs sent to us in plenty of time before our deadline.

06 / Common questions

Dumfries CD duplication FAQ.

Got a question? Call 07769 383 510
How long does CD duplication to Dumfries take?
Twelve working days for production plus one working day for Royal Mail Special Delivery to your DG postcode. Replication takes 16 working days. Add a couple of days if you’re including booklets or 6/8-panel sleeves.
What’s the minimum order for CD duplication Dumfries?
25 units for duplication, 300 units for replication. Most Dumfries folk, trad and singer-songwriter releases land between 50 and 200 units — that range is where we live.
Can I order a sample before committing to a full run?
Yes. Order a proof copy — a fully-assembled CD using your own artwork and audio, posted to any Dumfries or DG address. £4.99 covers Royal Mail postage, we cover the rest. The proof copy is standalone — you only order a full run if you want to.
Do you deliver across all of Dumfries and Galloway?
Yes. Royal Mail Special Delivery covers every DG postcode — central Dumfries (DG1, DG2), Castle Douglas (DG7), Kirkcudbright (DG6), Newton Stewart (DG8), Stranraer (DG9), Annan (DG12), Lockerbie (DG11), Moffat (DG10) and on through DG13–DG16. Tracked and signed-for as standard.
Are you the closest CD press to Dumfries and Galloway?
Geographically, yes — Glasgow is around 90 minutes north of Dumfries by road and a touch further from the western reaches of DG. Other UK presses sit much further south. The practical upshot is that DG orders pick up our standard Scottish Royal Mail service rather than a longer journey from the Midlands or south of England.
Are your CDs eco-friendly?
Our Ecopak and Card Sleeve formats are fully recyclable, printed on 350gsm and 300gsm card with no plastic tray. We’ve been pressing eco-friendly CDs since 2018 and it’s the default for most of our Dumfries and Galloway clients.
Can I get my Dumfries order mastered too?
Yes. We work with mastering engineer Tom S. Ray. Send us your mix and we’ll handle mastering, duplication, ISRC and CDDB in one go.
Do you charge for ISRC and CD-Text embedding?
No. ISRC code embedding and CD-Text are included with every Dumfries order, alongside audio transfers and free artwork amendments.
How can I pay for my Dumfries order?
Card, PayPal or Klarna at checkout. All major cards accepted. Klarna lets you spread the cost over instalments at no extra charge.
