Perfect Binding
Perfect Binding Finish
Perfect binding is a type of finishing process which binds sheets together by using glue. This process is typically used for soft-covered items like paperback books, magazines, telephone books and more. Perfect binding offers the perfect way to finish your printed materials in a very professional manner ideal for commercial use. Perfect binding is a durable, low-cost packaging solution for any thicker printed material in which saddle stitching cannot accommodate. The method holds pages together by applying glue to the spine of the gathered pages.
When determining between perfect binding and saddle stitching, it’s important to consider the thickness and durability when you choose a binding type. Perfect Binding is typically used for larger paged publications which tend to weigh more, needing more support.
If your project consists of more than 40 pages, perfect binding is your best option. For thicker publications, a paperboard cover is attached to the binding adhesive. Perfect bound products have a rectangular backbone. To ensure the glue firmly holds the pages securely, the spine is ground leaving a rough edge and creating an improved application for the adhesive.
