The flexibility and cost effectiveness of saddle stitch binding makes these booklets extremely popular with our trade customers. Saddle stitched means binding pages together using staples at the spine. It’s a straightforward technique, ideal for any document up to 64 pages and offers a sharp, professional finish at a low price. If your document has 40 or more pages, we'll square back the spine to help stop it springing open.
Saddle stitched books are the perfect solution for printing smaller booklets such as magazines, brochures and reports. Other uses include programmes, marketing booklets and even comic books. All saddle stitched booklets must be created in multiples of 4 pages, thus a single page, folded in half, becomes four printed pages. Fast turnaround is always available on all our HP Indigo printed saddle stitched booklets.
Our trade customers can choose from a wide range of luxury papers in a variety of weights, sizes and finishes. Most use heavier stock for the cover and many opt for matt or gloss lamination for extra strength. 150gsm or lighter works best for inner pages to stop your booklet springing open.

Matt or Gloss Lamination
We recommend you laminate your cover. Lamination is applied after the printing process and will protect your saddle-stitched booklets from general wear and tear. Matt lamination gives a softer, more contemporary look to your booklets while Gloss lamination enhances vibrancy and gives a higher shine. Lamination is only available on stocks over 250gsm and not available on luxury papers.
