Book Printers Cirencester
As professional book printers Cirencester, we offer multiple options:Â
Perfect Bound Books
If you’re looking for a lightweight, sleek and professional finish, perfect binding offers a popular and affordable method. Commonly used for books, catalogues, annual reports and marketing materials, perfect bound books are a versatile option for those looking to print multiple pages that cannot be stapled because of the thickness. During the binding process the cover and pages of the book are glued together at the spine, then the pages are perfectly trimmed to give sharp, even edges and a flawless finish.
We have a range of papers and finishing options available including matt lamination, Spot UV and foil blocking.
Hardback Books
If you’re looking for an extra durable cover, we also offer customised hardback books. The inner pages are are sewn together into a hard casing made of rigid material that’s great for withstanding wear and tear.
