Paper, Covers & Durability
Interior Stocks
Uncoated for heavy note-taking, satin for mixed text and images, or gloss when you want maximum colour pop. We’ll recommend grammages that balance opacity, weight and durability.
Covers & Protection
Add gloss or matte lamination to resist scuffs in bags and on benches. For extra toughness, consider a heavier cover or our hard cover wire-bound option.
Binding Options
Choose spiral (coil) for flexible page turns, twin-loop wire for a refined look, or comb binding for economical office manuals. All options open flat for easy reference.

Which is better—spiral, wire or comb?
Spiral (coil) is flexible and rugged for everyday use, wire looks more premium and stacks neatly, while comb is a cost-effective option for office manuals. We’ll help match the binding to your use case.
Can I add tabs or dividers?
Yes—section tabs and divider pages work well in spiral, wire and comb bound books. Ask for recommendations when you request your quote.
