Severnprint's bindery and finishing options

"Many print items are judged by the quality of, not only the printed images and text, but also by the quality of the finish."

 

At Severnprint we know the importance of accurate trimming, folding and binding. The Severnprint bindery is one of the best equipped in the region.

  • folding miniature to B1
  • saddlestitching
  • loopstitching
  • perfect binding
  • laminating
  • die cutting
  • wiro binding
  • spiral binding or spiro
  • plastic coil binding
  • ram bundling

 

Having these trimming, finishing and binding options within our own factory means

  • we don't lose time sending jobs to specialist finishing companies
  • we avoid extra transport saving cost, but more importantly from an environmental point it saves on 'print-miles'
  • we keep control of the quality
  • digital print items also have access to the specialist bindery more usually only available to litho printers
