Perfect Bound Book Printing: Versatile Solutions for Irish Businesses

Perfect bound books offer a professional finishing touch for a wide range of documents. In Ireland, they're particularly popular for:

  • Annual reports for Dublin-based corporations: Perfect binding provides a sleek, professional look that reflects the company's attention to detail and quality.
  • Product catalogues for Irish retailers: The durability and high-quality presentation of perfect bound books make them ideal for showcasing products in industries from fashion to agriculture.
  • Literary works by emerging Irish authors: Perfect binding gives self-published and small-press books a polished, commercial feel that can compete with traditionally published works.
  • Academic publications for universities across Ireland: The ability to bind large numbers of pages makes perfect binding ideal for theses, dissertations, and research papers.
  • Marketing materials for Ireland's thriving tourism industry: Perfect bound books allow for high-quality image reproduction, crucial for showcasing Ireland's scenic beauty and cultural attractions.

Is Perfect Bound Book Printing Right for My Project?

Perfect binding is ideal when you need:

  • A professional, high-quality finish: Perfect for projects that require a premium look, such as high-end real estate brochures or annual reports for Irish tech start-ups.
  • Durability to withstand frequent handling: Ideal for frequently used documents like employee handbooks or reference guides for Irish businesses.
  • Flexibility to accommodate various page counts: Suitable for both short promotional booklets and comprehensive product manuals, adapting to the diverse needs of Irish industries.
  • Cost-effective solutions for both small and large print runs: Beneficial for small Irish businesses and large corporations alike, offering economical options regardless of quantity.

The Perfect Bound Book Printing Process

  1. Page collation and preparation: We carefully arrange your pages in the correct order, ensuring a seamless reading experience.
  2. Spine edge roughening: This step improves adhesion, crucial for withstanding Ireland's variable climate conditions.
  3. Application of PUR glue: Our use of the most durable PUR glue ensures your books remain intact, even in Ireland's humid coastal areas.
  4. Cover wrapping and adhesion: We precisely wrap and adhere the cover, creating a professional, unified look.
  5. Precise trimming: The final step ensures clean, professional edges that meet the high standards expected in the Irish market.

How to Print a Booklet: Page Count Guidelines

  • Minimum: 28 pages, ideal for short reports or promotional materials for Irish SMEs.
  • Maximum: 700 pages (A4 portrait), perfect for comprehensive industry reports or detailed product catalogues. 700 page limit depends on inner paper type and weight.
  • A4 Landscape: Up to 450 pages (26mm spine thickness), suitable for wide-format presentations or landscape photography books showcasing Ireland's scenic vistas.

Customise The Size & Finish

Tailor your perfect bound book to your specific needs:

  • Sizes: A4, A5, 1/3 A4, or custom dimensions to suit unique Irish business requirements.
  • Cover options: 250gsm to 350gsm in silk, gloss, or uncoated, allowing you to match the brand's aesthetic.
  • Inner pages: 100gsm to 200gsm in various paper types, catering to different content needs and budget considerations.

Paper Options

Silk
Silk coated paper has a smooth feel with a discreet surface sheen. It offers excellent ink to paper contrast, and printed colours appear distinct and clear. A recycled option is available. (Cover 250gsm – 350gsm; inner text 130gsm – 150gsm)

Gloss
Gloss coated paper has a shiny surface and very smooth finish. Colour is sharp and stands out well. Ink dries quickly and the need for lamination is reduced. (Cover 250gsm - 350gsm; inner text 130gsm – 200gsm)

Premium uncoated
Our premium uncoated paper is absorbent. Printed inks appear flatter due to this absorbency, and the paper has a soft finish. A recycled option is available. (Cover 250gsm – 300gsm; inner text 100gsm – 120gsm)

Finishes

Matt lamination gives a soft, contemporary effect. Gloss lamination gives a higher quality shine finish than gloss card. Lamination is most useful with solid colours or images to enhance their vibrancy or where you want to protect your printed documents. The most popular option is to matt laminate your cover.
