Booklets - Saddle Stitched
Saddle stitching is the most practical binding method for booklets up to around 64 pages. Two staples through the spine, pages lie flat when open, and the binding holds together with regular use.
Cover stock is heavier than internal pages giving structure and substance. A self cover option is available where the same stock runs throughout, which is a more economical choice for shorter runs. Economy and premium options quoted on every job.
One thing worth knowing: saddle stitched booklets must have a page count in multiples of four. If your content does not land on a multiple of four, you will need to add blank pages to make it work. It sounds simple but it catches a lot of people out when they are planning their content. Get in touch and we will help you work it out.
