Perfect Binding

Perfect binding uses hot glue to secure your pages together. The freedom that comes with the wraparound cover of a perfect binding is ideal for showing off your design work to give an instant impression. Perfect binding is an effective way of showing off double page spreads as it can open ‘near flat’.

There are some limitations with perfect binding such as some paper weights, thickness of document and if the binding edge is over 297mm. If you are after an A4 format perfect binding, this can be completed on a same day or 2 day service. It requires 3 days to complete an A3 perfect binding. Perfect binding is a favourite style of binding as it is quick and has an aesthetic appeal.

Optional Features

As much as perfect binding can give your artwork a great platform to shine, there are factors which should be considered. The below can weaken the spine. To combat this, it is recommended having the pages stitched to strengthen the spine. This is an additional £15 per book.
