A package for an optical disc and an optical disc sleeve includes upper and lower formed plastic sheets sized to receive and support therebetween the optical disc and the optical disc sleeve in side by side relationship. The lower sheet is shaped to support the optical disc and defines an annular depression made up of a central hub, an inner ledge, an annular floor surrounding the inner ledge, an array of raised stiffening structures formed in the annular floor, and at least one outer ledge positioned around the annular floor. The upper sheet is shaped to cover the optical disc and the optical disc sleeve and includes a closed end receptacle shaped to receive an end portion of the hub. The hub forms a friction fit with the central opening in the disc to hold the disc on the hub. The upper and lower sheets define peripheral shoulders shaped to fit together to increase the rigidity of the sheets.

A package for an optical disc having a central opening and for an optical disc sleeve shaped to enclose the optical disc, said package comprising: upper and lower formed plastic sheets sized to receive and support therebetween the optical disc and the optical disc sleeve in side by side relationship

A package for an optical disc having a central opening and for an optical disc sleeve shaped to enclose the optical disc, said package comprising: upper and lower formed plastic sheets sized to receive and support therebetween the optical disc and the optical disc sleeve in side by side relationship, at least one of the plastic sheets being transparent to allow the optical disc and the optical disc sleeve to be seen through the transparent plastic sheet, said upper and lower sheets forming upper and lower exterior surfaces of said package; one of said sheets comprising a closed end, hollow hub which in its relaxed state is larger than the central opening of the optical disc, said hub deformable such that the optical disc can be pushed in place on the hub and the optical disc, once inserted on the hub, is held on the hub by an interference fit between the hub and the optical disc; the other of said sheets defining a closed end receptacle shaped to receive an end portion of the hub; said lower sheet defining a depression shaped to receive the optical disc; said upper sheet shaped to cover the optical disc and the optical disc sleeve; said upper and lower sheets defining peripheral shoulders shaped to fit together to increase the rigidity of the sheets; said hub defining an array of axially oriented external edges positioned to form a friction fit with the optical disc.
