Book Binding

DSCN1121.jpgBook binding is known as the method by which printed sheets are put together to form books, magazines, catalogues, folders, directories, or product packaging. Based on specifications we offer paperback binding and hard cover binding or perfect binding. In the process of binding a book, the sheets must be cut, folded, gathered, glued, stapled, stitch, or sewn.


Methods of Binding

This type of binding is utilizing an adhesive to hold loose pages together. Perfect binding is also known as Adhesive Binding. The basic process of this type of binding is applying adhesive to the spine of gathered pages, which keeps the pages securely bound when dried.

Interscrew binding consist of binding loose pages using interscrews. In this type of binding not adhesives are used to keep the papers together. Some of the most frequent documents that use this method are restaurant menus, portfolios and catalogues etc.

Comb binding is method of securing loose printed pages using a piece of plastic with teeth (the comb) that fits into rectangular holes in the paper. The combs that are used for this method comes in various sizes. The size comb used is dependent on the size of the document to be bound.

Reinforced side sewn binding is a very permanent solution for book blocks both of coated or uncoated papers. The thread sews through the “side” of a book block, taking away 1/4″ of the gutter margin. Side sewn binding will not lay flat, but will be held together very securely. We use this for children’s books, photobooks, year books
