At Print Me. Bind Me. we offer the perfect binding services. This is the process in which we evenly stack all the pages together to create one book block and then glue the pages together with the cover with a thermal glue. Thermal glue is extremely strong and flexible so it ensures a long lasting quality and a perfect look. After the glue adheres the book is trimmed on the sides to make sure that the final product is both classy, clean and professional. Finally a layer of clear coating is applied to the book for long durability.
The Benefits of Binding a Book:
- High quality and professional look
- Low cost
- Possible to print book title on the spine
- Short turnaround time
This binding style resembles a paperback book and comes in a wide variety of sizes. Perfect binding can be used for documents up to 300 pages (600 double sided) and like a paperback, accommodates color printing on both the covers and spine. Add lamination to the covers for a high shine and professional look. It’s a sure fire way for any document to stand out from the competition.
