This style of stapled booklet or brochure is ideal for a small, cost-effective promotional publication such as a short product booklet, a newsletter, a programme of events or a schedule, a short introduction publication or a price list, These go very well with ourA4 foldersto add some gravitas to conferences and meetings.
If you have a big idea that needs to look professional on a budget, saddle stitched publishing is what you need. We also offer other A sized saddle-stitched options as well as custom-sized booklets so you can pick whatever fits the bill.
We have a great range of high-quality options for you to choose from:
Wide range of inner and cover paper stocks
Wide range of cover laminations, and from 8 to 68 pages
The minimum order is 1 brochure.

If you are looking for a slightly more lengthy brochure or magazine you could try perfect bound books, these are bound with glue and look like a paperback or magazine you'd find on the magazine rack.
If budget is your main priority (and we can completely appreciate that) but you'd like to add an extra layer of protection to make these last a little longer, ...
