Other Binding Methods for Your Print Brochures

Brochure printing as a process is never complete without the finishing touches at the end of every project. There is more to just having brochures templates that create wonderful designs and layout to your project.

You must also pay attention and give proper considerations to the post-press process of brochure printing. The post-press operation is in fact, crucial because it has its own special guidelines, consideration, and even limitations.

Your brochure printing will never be complete without the proper binding method to hold all your pages together. Just like folding, this post-operation process is essential to ensure that your print ad presents a crisp and clean appearance that your target clients would find impressive.

When binding your brochures, you can choose from several methods. Basically, the binding principle is to make sure that your printed brochure would be able to hold its pages in place.

In addition to the most popular methods such as saddle-stitching, pasting, loose leaf, and the perfect and spiral binding, there are also other binding methods available. You can inquire and ask the assistance of your printing services provider to give you brochure templates with the most appropriate binding process that will suit your needs.

GBC Binding
This method was named after the company that initiated it – General Binding Corporation. What makes this method different from the others is that a plastic comb is applied when brochure printing to hold the pages together. GBC binding is appropriate for larger page counts and allows your brochures to lay flat when opened. Nevertheless, the process costs more than when you apply spiral binding to your full color print brochure.

Plastic Coil Binding
This is almost the same as that of spiral binding; but instead of a wire, a plastic coil is used to loop the pages in a spiral pattern down to the spine. It is also suitable for larger page counts and presents a flat document when you lay open your print brochures. The difference from spiral binding is that the plastic coil does not bend so you will have a more durable piece.

Lay Flat Perfect Binding
This is also perfect binding; however, the difference is that it lets your document lay flat when opened. This is especially suitable for manuals. The downside: it is more expensive than the usual perfect binding method.

Double-O-Wire Binding
This is another type of spiral binding where the outcome presents a series of parallel wire loops holding the pages together. Again, it is appropriate for large page counts, the document lay flat when opened, but will cost you more than any of the other loose sheet binding. In fact, it is the most expensive among all the loose sheet binding method.

Therefore, whenever printing color brochures, you must always remember that this process does not end even when you already got the pages hot from the press. You only have a finished product once you already have the proper binding method right so that it can hold your print advertisement together. Ask your provider now for the method that would suit your brochure needs.
