  • Because they are mineral rather than chemical their vinyl records are non-toxic and recyclable
  • The sound quality is exceptional due to the purity of their vinyl and their quality control. 
  • Their quality control is second to none as all records are triple checked by eye and handrather than by machine.
  • All their machines are powered by green energy, green gas and solar energy from local suppliers
