Hard cover binding is important for books that will be kept and treasured for years to come as it is the most durable and long-lasting of all binding types.
Why Hard Cover Binding is Better
Hard cover binding compliments your publishing efforts with very little additional cost, especially on runs of 50 or more. It adds a “touch of class” you won’t achieve with other binding types – there is no substitution for the look and feel of a hard bound book.
First impressions are often the selling point and nothing achieves your desired look better than our quality Cover Materials. We offer various non-woven cloths, imitation leathers, bonded leathers or printed/laminated cover material. Your titles are hot-foil stamped in gold, silver, or various colors, or can be offset or letterpress printed.
A complete run of books can be bound or as an alternative we can economically hard-case bind a portion of the books to compliment your perfect binding order. For special. Limited Editions, a Limitation Page can be easily added to your hardbound books.
