The Miracle that is Perfect Binding

Whether you're new to bookbinding or a long time veteran, it's hard to deny that the perfect binder has proven itself to be a wonderful resource for on-demand book manufacturing. The quality of perfect binding is constantly improving, bringing what many playfully call “not-so-perfect binding” closer to the strength and flexibility of sewn bindings. Another link in the chain of the evolution perfect binding and on-demand book manufacturing are undergoing is the LBS Combined Endsheet.

The Combined Endsheet offers the speed and ease of perfect binding with the durability, permanence and value of cased-in editions. It is made up of two folded endsheets joined at the fold by a strip of cloth reinforcing tape. Simply load the endsheet into the cover feeder on your perfect binder (instead of your paper cover). The result is a reinforced bookblock ready to case-in.

LBS has samples available for testing. Let me know if you’d like more information.
