Saddle Stitching
Saddle stitching is one of the cheapest binding options for books and magazines under 48 pages. You can print the cover on the same paper as the rest of the booklet or the cover can be printed on heavier stock if you prefer. Saddle stitching is suitable for brochures, booklets and newsletters.
Please keep in mind when designing your books for saddle stitching that you consider the following; Page counts must be in increments of four pages When the book is folded in half and stitched on the spine the pages at the centre of the document will stick out further than the cover / external pages. To tidy up the book the front edge is trimmed off which is called a forage trim. Be mindful that when the book is trimmed, components such as page numbers, images and text could be trimmed off if this is not taken into consideration when you are designing the document.

COVID-19 Coronavirus Outbreak

First and foremost, we would like to wish all Australians the best of luck in the coming months, and we hope that you and your families remain safe and well.

We would also like to update you on the evolving Coronavirus (COVID-19) situation from the Book Printing Companies perspective, as it can affect our customers, suppliers and staff in various ways. The Book Printing Company is a family owned business, and along with many other family owned businesses throughout Australia, we are concerned about the possible implications, and the effect that the COVID-19 Coronavirus outbreak will have on our families, friends and employees from both a health and economic perspective. Because of this we have consulted with our fellow workers and suppliers and we have made the following decisions so that we can best support other Australian owned businesses during these difficult times.

We have prioritised the health and safety of our employees by implementing preventative measures to protect their well-being. This in turn, will help to minimise business disruption and provide our customers with a continuity of service. All staff who can work from home, will be working from home effective immediately. Our offices will be closed to the public to ensure that exposure to the COVID-19 Coronavirus is almost eliminated. However, normal print production will be guaranteed.

In regards to suppliers, we have determined that for us to assist other Australian owned businesses, we will be buying from fully owned Australian businesses in the first instance where possible. If you are not currently a supplier and you fit within this scope, please email us at admin@bookprintingcompany.com.au
