Softcover Binding

Less expensive and faster than some other binding methods.

Perfect binding is the process for making a soft cover or paperback books and includes many variants according to client needs, such as corporate annual reports, brochures, manuals, non-fiction and fiction books, graphic novels, cost-efficient yearbooks, and various other publications that are a step up from saddle stitching. 

By utilizing various techniques in making softback books—such as lay-flat binding, PUR binding, and notch binding—soft cover binding can be used in very cost-effective ways to bind technical manuals, directories, instruction books, reference pieces, cookbooks and more. 

Perfect binding is done by building a book block out of pre-collated, pre-cut loose sheets and applying a soft cover. A digitally printed book block can also be used, especially with a versatile PUR glue. Hot melt EVA or PUR glues are used to bond the pages and apply the cover. The process for making soft cover books is less expensive and faster than some other binding methods. These differing techniques allow for a reliable and durable book, with exceptional looks.
