Books are one of the most popular print products intended for private use.

The perfect binding choice for your next book! Perfect bound books, or “soft cover” books have pages that are glued together at the spine to form the ideal binding.
Our perfect binding uses PUR glue, which provides the ultimate marriage of strength and flexibility, making for a much more durable book. All for the same price as standard glue.
You can let your creativity run wild when it comes to having your books printed by printing.coop.

Build and configure the ideal Custom Saddle Stitch Bound Book and add structure and style with a heavier cover paper.
Ideal for your catalogs or portfolios, this type of binding is reserved for books with small paginations.
Our hardcover books feature a wraparound printed cover. Particularly suitable for limited editions, coffee table books and projects that call for additional cachet and durability.
For applications that require more structure and sturdier binding, Wire-O Coil Bound Books are an ideal solution.
End papers do not have to be created separately, they are already included in the calculation. One end paper in the front and one in the back.
No, the cover pages themselves cannot be printed inside for production reasons. However, we offer the printing of a so-called dust jacket, which can also be refined. This loose cover is placed around the book and wrapped around the front edges of the cover.
The softcover consists of 275 gsm softcover board. The hardcover is made of 2 mm thick binder's board and a cover of 150 gsm picture printing paper. The picture printing paper is refined by a cellophane finish, which is either matt, matt scratch-resistant or glossy. Furthermore, an offset facing paper with a thickness of 120 gsm is applied to the front and back.
A colour cover is a kind of hardcover with linen structure. For this purpose, a binder's board with a thickness of 2 mm is used, which is covered with a typical linen cover. You can choose between different colours for the linen cover. In addition, the linen structure can be refined with hot foil stamping.
The polyester headband closes the gap between spine and book block when the book is closed and visually enhances the book. It is glued to the upper and lower edges of the spine and thus protects the book from dust and stress. If a book has a headband, it is possible to add a ribbon (also called a bound bookmark) from a minimum spine thickness of 10 mm.
For adhesive-bound books with hardcover cover, it is possible to order headband and bound bookmark from the following grammages and page numbers:
Book paper (or publishing paper) is particularly suitable for letterpress printing. This is the name given to the classic paper commonly used in books. It appears "bulkier" than picture printing paper and has the advantage of not being reflective due to its matt surface. Printing paper is only offered for adhesive binding.
Hardcover give your book an exclusive look, offer stable protection and are mainly used for large works. Softcover books are often the classic "paperbacks". Thanks to the flexible paper cover, they are much lighter than hardcover books and therefore ideal as a travel companion, for example.
Yes, we print your book even in small editions starting from one piece.
The perfect binding process combines sheets into a book block and bonds them by applying a special PUR adhesive to the milled spine of the block. Saddle stitching uses a book binding thread to sew the printed sheets into individual brochures after folding. These are then sealed at the spine of the book with a PUR layer of glue. If a book is used intensively and should still be in the best possible condition after years, high-quality sewn binding is recommended. This also has the advantage that double pages remain cleanly open and the book as a whole gives an exclusive impression. Nevertheless, books with less expensive perfect binding are also of very high quality. In addition, headband and a bound bookmark can also be ordered for perfecting binding, if the number of pages exceeds a certain number.
