Catalogues
PRESENT YOUR OFFERING IN A QUALITY CATALOGUE
Catalog printing is the ideal way to present your product range. Our vivid art print paper yields dazzling photos, optionally with a matt or glossy finish. We offer online catalog printing between 64 and 356 pages plus cover. The latter is available in 170 gsm to 300 gsm quality printed with one, four or five colours. All booklets are perfect-bound or sewn bound. There is no minimum quantity for ordering catalogues (short runs).
CATALOGUE BINDING WITH HOT-MELT AND PUR ADHESIVE
We offer three binding types to turn single pages into a catalogue. The two adhesive binding types use hot-melt or PUR adhesive. Hot-melt adhesive is a thermoplastic material which is hot and liquid when applied on the paper sheets and solidifies as it cools down. This adhesive method provides the advantage that drying or curing times are eliminated allowing the products to be handled soon after. As a result, we can print, glue and dispatch your catalogue or booklet in virtually no time. PUR, in contrast, is a reactive glue that solidifies by drawing moisture out of the air. As with hot-melt binding, PUR adhesive is applied hot, however, at a lower temperature. Therefore, PUR binding is better suited for heat-sensitive materials than hot-melt glue. Another positive of PUR glue is that it is stronger and more durable than hot-melt adhesive. We therefore recommend PUR adhesive binding for online catalog printing of high-weight papers.
SUPERIOR QUALITY: SEWN BOUND CATALOGUES
Sewn binding is considered the most durable of all binding methods. Instead of hot-melt and PUR perfect binding, sewn binding employs multiple threads to sew the untrimmed paper sheets together mechanically. Accordingly, sewn bound catalogues are more durable than perfect bound booklets and hence better suited for heavy use. Another pro of sewn binding is the ability of the pages to open flat. Catalog printing combined with thread stitching provides a superior appearance.
