What is case binding?

Casebound or hardback books as they are also known are created using a specialist method called case binding. The front and back cover of your hardback book is printed and wrapped around a greyboard to create the ‘case’ or hardback of your book. The inner or text pages are bound together using a strong PUR (Polyurethane Reactive) adhesive like our perfect bound booklets. White endpapers and fly sheets are then inserted. The un-printed endpapers are glued to the case on the front and back. The flysheets are also blank and inserted just before and after your printed pages.

UK shipping is free, exceptions apply.
