What's the perfect binding process like?
There are various stages in the perfect binding process. First, the printer stacks together the book's interior pages to create a block. The block's spinal edge is then roughened up using abrasives or blades. This helps increase the bonding area for the glue by exposing more paper fibres.
Glue is then applied along the edge of the block. The next step is to wrap the cover around the edge of the block. The cover sticks to the glue along the edge of the block. Finally, the three edges of the book are trimmed to give it a refined look.
Perfect bound hardback book binding is ideal for fiction novels, manuals, thick product brochures, catalogs, corporate reports & cookbooks.
Benefits of hardcover book printing
Hardback-perfect bound is a popular hardback book binding technique. Here is why it is perfect for hardback books:
Best for books with low or high page counts
It is suitable for books with a high word count. For example, it is perfect if you want to print a brochure with many pages. Also, hardback-perfect bound is still a great technique if you want to publish a book with a low page count. This makes it ideal for a wide range of projects.
Easy to stack
The design makes it easy to stack. With some hardback book binding methods, arranging books may be challenging, especially if you have only a small space. You can stack hardback books vertically or any other way without much difficulty.
Produces attractive books
Books have a stylish appearance. You can customise hardback books using numerous techniques based on the type of book or preference. This is one of the main reasons hardback-perfect bound is excellent for fiction novels, magazines, and advertising brochures.
Cost-effective
