Binding

Wire-O binding

Double-loop wire closes through a row of holes and makes a spine that looks more formal than plastic coil. The book lies flat. It is the binding for a proposal you want someone to leave open during a meeting.

All six bindings are products we print. Next-morning production is not confirmed for every binding or quantity. Ask when you quote this one.

Where it earns its place

  • Proposals

    A leave-behind that stays open on a conference table without a hand holding it.

  • Presentation books

    Pitch decks and capabilities books that should look bound, not stapled.

  • Reports

    Client reports where a wire spine is cleaner than a plastic coil.

  • Lookbooks

    Pieces that are paged through flat, including calendars and short visual books.

How the binding behaves

Wire-O is a double-loop metal wire. The loops pass through holes along one edge and close into a narrow spine. Pages turn easily and the open book lies flat. It does not fold fully behind itself the way a coil book can. If the piece has to flip completely back, say so — coil may fit the use better, and we will confirm that with the quote.

Preparing this file

  1. 01

    Single pages

    Export one page per PDF page, in reading order, with fonts embedded.

  2. 02

    Binding margin

    Leave the punched edge clear of type and critical images. We confirm the margin for the trim size.

  3. 03

    Covers

    Front and back can be a different sheet from the inside. Describe that in the notes instead of assuming a stock.

  4. 04

    How it will be used

    Tell us if people need to write in it, hang it, or fold it back. The wire choice follows the use.
