Custom Saddle Stitch Notebooks
Saddle stitching drives two or more wire staples through the folded spine. It is by far the lowest-cost construction we make, which is exactly why it is the standard for national education tenders and mass promotional runs.

Why It Works
Why buyers choose it
Lowest possible unit price
Minimal material and a single fast process step. For large education tenders this is normally the only viable construction.
Fastest production
Our saddle stitch lines run at very high speed, so 100,000+ pcs orders still ship on a normal schedule.
Light shipping weight
No spine glue or board means more units per carton and lower freight cost per book.
