Abstract

A container for compact discs comprises a lightweight sleeve formed of three thin sheets of polypropylene material that are die cut and heat bonded together. A front pocket has a deep U-shaped notch formed on its outer face and provides for insertion of a Compact Disc (CD). A back pocket is provided for a printed CD package insert. On both the front surface and the back surface, a pocket is formed at the top of the container to receive a narrow, information bearing strip, such as the title bar from a jewel box.
