Finishing and Bindery Service
USQ Printing Services offers a range of finishing and binding services. These include:
|
Bringing sections of work together in correct sequence. |
|
Binding for a finished book where the staples appear on the very spine and centre of the book. Pages need to be in multiples of four. Limited to books up to approximately 88 pages of 80gsm Bond. After this the books may need to be hand stitched which is very labour intensive. |
|
Binding for a finished book where the cover wraps around the text pages including the front, spine and back. Glue mechanically wiped onto the spine area seals the cover to the text. A greater margin is required on the inside of pages to allow for ease of reading. Very durable. |
|
When a printed document requires folding for completion: ie A3 folded to A4; A4 folded to A5; A4 folded twice to DL. |
|
A plastic film heat bonded to the paper, e.g. book cover, business cards, etc. Can be either gloss or matt and can be applied to either both or just one side of a item. Cannot be applied to just a portion/spot of the printed item, i.e. just a logo or picture. |
|
Applying a plastic film bonded by heat and pressure to a printed sheet for protection or appearance. |
