Catalogue Printing Australia
High-Quality Catalogue Printing Services
If you’re looking for catalogue printing in Australia, you’re in the right place. At MBE, we help businesses create catalogues that don’t just look good—they work hard behind the scenes, driving sales, enquiries, and brand recognition.
In a world full of scrolling, a printed catalogue slows things down (in a good way). It invites people to linger, explore, and actually engage with your products.
Catalogue Printing Services
Our catalogue printing services are built to be simple, flexible, and reliable.
We offer:
- Digital and offset printing for varying run sizes
- Short runs for targeted campaigns
- Large-scale production for national distribution
- Premium finishing (binding, laminating, print embellishments)
From design to delivery, we make sure everything runs smoothly—no surprises, no last-minute stress.
On-Demand Printing Options
On-Demand Printing is perfect for when you need to keep your inventory costs, and storage needs low, need a little bit of flexibility, or require frequent changes to your catalogue content.
Here at MBE, we offer fast turnaround, on-demand printing with our digital print solutions.
On- Demand Printing is perfect for businesses that need to:
- Frequently update their products and/or services, whether it be pricing or offerings.
- Customise their catalogues to suit different markets or customers.
- Create seasonal catalogues, or one-off promotions.
- Promote a new product line.
Bulk Printing Options
Bulk Printing is delivered using offset printing and is better suited to larger print runs. As opposed to on-demand printing, bulk printing is generally used for catalogues that will have a longer lifespan, with no unexpected changes predicted, and a large database of recipients.
What you can expect from our bulk printing services:
Reduced cost per unit
The higher the volume, the lower each catalogue costs to produce.
Consistent Quality
As all of the catalogues are printed at the one time, the colour and resolution are maintained throughout the entire print run.
More Finishing Options
Using offset printing gives you greater choice to the finishes for your catalogue, including, but not limited to, Embossing, Spot UV and Foiling.
Catalogue Printing Paper Choices
Paper choice isn’t just technical—it’s emotional. It shapes how your brand is perceived before a single word is read.
Paper Types
Gloss
Bright, vibrant, and ideal for image-heavy catalogues.
Matte
Subtle and refined. Great for premium brands.
Uncoated
Natural and tactile. A softer, more organic feel.
Paper Weight (GSM)
• 80–120 GSM: Lightweight and cost-effective
• 130–170 GSM: Standard internal pages
• 200+ GSM: Durable, high-quality covers
If you’re unsure, we’ll help you find the sweet spot between cost, durability, and feel.
Eco-Friendly Options
We also have a wide range of eco-friendly paper stock options to choose from, and paired with our partnership with PrintReleaf, the environmental impact of your catalogue is already taken care of.
Binding Options for Catalogue Printing
We offer several binding options for catalogues, including:
- Wire binding
- Spiral binding
- Perfect binding
- Saddle stitching
NB – Binding options may be limited, depending on delivery deadlines, for on-demand printing. Perfect Binding can take up to a week longer than other binding options.
Custom Catalogue Printing Sizes
The size of your catalogue plays a bigger role than you might expect.
Popular Options
- A4: The go-to standard (210x 297mm)
- A5: Compact and budget-friendly (148.5 x 210mm)
- Square: Modern and distinctive
- Custom sizes: Designed to stand out
Sometimes a slightly unexpected format is all it takes to make someone pause instead of flip past. Talk to your local MBE expert for friendly advice regarding your next project.
