Description

Use these boxes to protect your valuable CD (compact disks) collection from harmful ozone, UV light, mold, mildew, and electronic discharge. 

Boxes are constructed from acid and lignin free Heritage® Corrugated Board, with a 2 piece shoe box style construction.  Boxes are shipped flat and require assembly without glue.

Inside dimensions are 10" x 5-1/4" x 5-3/4" with a 1.5" deep lid.  

The base of the box has a unique curved wall to allow for a snug fit and easy removal of the contents from the box.  

It is recommended that CD storage be supplemented with Corrosion Intercept Inserts to extend longevity. These are thin disks that sit behind the CD in its jewel case, to absorb harmful gases that cause deterioration.

Stores approximately 25 CDs in cases.
