Professional Hardback Binding Options
The longevity and “feel” of your book depend on the binding method. We offer three specialist techniques:
Section Sewn Binding: The gold standard for books. Pages are gathered into sections and sewn through the center, allowing the book to lay flat when opened—perfect for photography and art books.
Case Bound (Perfect Bound): The most cost-effective method where the inner book block is securely glued into the hard case cover.
Side Sewn Binding: Pages are stitched approximately 6mm from the spine edge for a distinct, industrial, and incredibly strong finish.
PUR Bound Books
Perfect binding (PUR) is the industry standard for creating a clean, professional “flat back” spine. At SRP Design & Print, we use high-strength PUR adhesive to ensure your books are durable, cost-effective, and premium in appearance.

Our Perfect Bound Printing is ideal for:
- Self-Publishing: Novels, Memoirs, and Biographies.
- Business & Education: Textbooks, Annual Reports, and Instruction Manuals.
- Events & Marketing: High-end Magazines and Commemorative Event Programmes.
