Saddle Stitching

Saddle Stitching: A Sturdy Binding Method for Brochures & Magazines

Saddle stitching (also known as staple binding) is a binding technique where wire staples are inserted through the spine of a printed product. This method is especially suitable for brochures, catalogues, magazines, and thin booklets. Saddle stitching keeps the pages firmly together and allows the publication to open flat for easy browsing. It's an ideal choice for low-page count print products as it is cost-effective and quick to produce.

During production, we first fold the printed sheets, then insert staples along the centre fold. This gives each brochure a strong bind and a neat, professional finish. Saddle stitching works especially well for materials people browse through often, such as company brochures or event programmes.

Advantages of Saddle Stitching

• Durability: Provides a strong and long-lasting bind.
• Versatility: Suitable for various formats and page counts.
• Cost-effective: Much more affordable than many other binding methods, especially for small print runs.
