Different types of book binding
The best binding method for your publication depends on the page count, durability requirements, aesthetic appeal considerations, handling, and budget. These are too many factors to scrutinize by yourself, so you should better talk to our team to perform a book analysis for you.
After analysis, we will advise you on one of the following book binding options you can delegate to Print It ZA:
- Perfect binding for softcover novels, catalogs, textbooks, and other publications
- PUR binding for annual reports, exclusive magazines, and sleek catalogs
- Saddle stitch binding for all book types with a lower number of pages
- Wire-o binding for workbooks, manuals and more
