Book binding Perth

The difference between a sleek, professional booklet and a stack of loose paper is simple: book binding. Turn your next project into something special with MBE West Perth’s quality book binding services.

Book binding involves securely attaching individual sheets together to create a book, manual, portfolio, and more. There are a range of types available depending on the objective and context of your booklet. But no matter which one you choose, it’s always satisfying to hold a neatly bound document in your hands.

Types of book binding

Wire binding

Wire binding, also known as wire-o binding, is a robust and durable method that’s perfect for heavy-duty use. With its secure closure, it’s excellent for documents that need to withstand a lot of handling, such as training manuals or recipe books.

It comes in two types. Double-loop wire provides a secure and neat finish, ensuring your pages lie flat and turn easily. Meanwhile, comb binding offers a budget-friendly solution that’s flexible and easy to add or remove pages, making it ideal for reports and personal projects.

Spiral binding

Spiral binding, also known as coil binding, offers a casual yet stylish finish that’s well-suited for a variety of applications from school projects to business presentations. The spiral coil makes your document easy to handle and turn, because there’s no tension on the spine. However, once bound, your pages are set.

Selecting the right binding for your booklet depends on several factors, including purpose, page count, and presentation. As a general rule, for formal reports or manuscripts, consider spiral binding for a polished look. For easily updatable materials like training manuals, wire-o binding can offer that flexibility. However, the best technique will depend on your unique project and budget.

Use professional Perth book binding

Once you’ve decided to bind your book, it’s worth thinking about whether you need any additional features such as cover tabs and dividers for partitioning. Will your papers need sorting and collating, or drilling and post binding?

Then there are the specific questions like page count (depending on the type, we can do anywhere from 4 to up to 500!), cover details, and more. We’re here to answer these and help guide you through the process.
