Binding – Wiro, Comb and Perfect

Photo showing Wiro Binding, Full colour image

Wiro - Typically used to bind reference books, reports, proposals, and calendars as all of the document’s pages lie flat when opened and can turn easily through 360 degrees. The document is held firmly in place by a double-loop wire inserted through holes drilled in their left edges. They are durable, but do not permit printing on the document spine or the insertion of new pages.

Comb – Simple and practical, using plastic combs is the most popular method of producing bound documents and unlike wiro pages can be added, removed or amended and if big enough the combs can be printed on.

Perfect - A type of un-sewn binding where the leaves of the book are held together at the binding edge by adhesive. It is well suited for use with books, thick magazines, etc. (minimum thickness of approximately 3mm).

Die-cutting and creasing
Photo showing Die cutting and creasing

Paper or board can be die cut to an irregular shape or have a shape cut out of printed sheets using a cutting forme. The process uses sharp metal rules on a wooden block and also blunt rules are used to create creasing lines which help the material to fold and to reduce cracking.

We use this most commonly on pocket folders or unusual shaped flyers, etc.
