Your One-Stop Loose Leaf Binding Source

You can send us your loose leaf books already collated and ready for us to complete, or we can collate your flat sheets, then bind them using any of the following methods:

Plastic Coil Spiral

Newest and fastest growing of the loose leaf binding methods.  Popular for cookbooks, calendars and computer manuals.  Since plastic coil bound books step up when opened, crossover graphics should be avoided.

Coils stocked in black, but colors available quickly via special order.

Coilmaster® Jr. Coil Inserter & Finisher

Our new Coilmaster® Jr. semi-automatic coil finishing machine enables even faster production on coil books up to ¾" thick.

Double Loop/Wire-O

Looseleaf binding is a great solution for products that need to lie flat. Double loop wire binding, commonly referred to as Wire-O, is a durable binding method that permits books to lie flat, opens 360º and is perfect for manuals, cookbooks, calendars and more.

Wire elements stocked in black, but colors available quickly via special order.

Wire-O-Bind
Wire Cutter & Closer

Our Wire-O-Bind machine automatically cuts, inserts and closes double loop wires fed from a roll to enable booklets to be produced very economically.

Plastic Combs/GBC

One of the oldest and most economical loose leaf binding methods.  While experiencing some declining popularity, plastic combs are still preferred for certain cookbooks and manuals that might require pages to be changed at a future date.

Readily available in black, but other colors are available via special order.

Custom Punching

We do punching for our customers who have their own loose leaf equipment but find it more economical to send out their punching for those larger jobs.

Our high speed punch makes short work of those jobs that can tie you up while other things get left behind.  Call for special pricing on runs as low as 10,000 sheets.

We can also punch jobs containing index tabs, but need a ¼" margin on each end of the sheets for automatic punching.  Oversize covers need to be punched separately then added during final assembly.
 

Punch Dies

Plastic Coil Spiral Punch:  Round hole, 3/16" holes, .248" spacing, commonly called 4:1, but the slightly tighter hole spacing fits paper sizes better than the old style .250" pattern.

Wire-O 3:1 Punch: Square holes, 5/32" square, 3 holes per inch for wire sizes up to 9/16".

Wire-O 2:1 Punch: Square holes ¼" square, 2 holes per inch for wire sizes 5/8" and above.

GBC/Plastic Comb Punch: Standard punch pattern for all sizes of plastic combs.

Velobind Punch: Standard punch pattern.  NOTE: We don't yet have the assembly machine for Velobind, but we can punch the sheets for you.  We will purchase the machine if there is enough interest.
