What Can Mechanical Binding Do For You?

Depending on your book project, there are binding solutions that will fit your needs. Though Smyth sewn books are beautiful and strong, sometimes something from the mechanical family of binding simply works out better. Today we’re going to be talking through some of the mechanical binding options and what they can be used for. Ready to jump in? Let’s get started.

Hosting a company event? Employ a cost effective solution with mechanical binding.

Sometimes a book project requires a quick and cost effective solution. Company events that need manuals or notebooks for their large conferences or retreats probably aren’t looking for text-book style materials to pass out to their employees. They’re looking for light and flexible materials that they can pass around and place in lightweight laptop bags. Wire-O binding or plastic coil binding would probably work best for these situations. Their flexibility and affordability make them the perfect option for those of you who need a large host of materials.

Flexible binding solutions are excellent for students too!

Student materials are often very expensive, but when you choose to utilize the power of mechanical binding, you can give your students a much more cost effective set of learning materials. Furthermore, when you use plastic comb binding, you can actually add pages to the book for additional notes or information down the line. Not only that, but many mechanical binding options easily lay flat when they are opened, making them much easier to take notes from or work with in a classroom setting.

There are hardback options with mechanical binding too!

If you’re looking for the best of both worlds, then you might look to fully concealed wire-bound hardback books. This option uses the Wire-O method, but keeps the wiring covered beneath a hard cover. You still have all of the benefits of using mechanical binding such as cost effectiveness and the ease of maneuvering, with the class and elegance of a hard cover.
