What are the advantages of Wire-O Binding?

There are several characteristics of the Wire-O binding method that make it very suitable for many different applications.

The structure of the coil allows the book to open flat and stay open, which is ideal for manuals, guides, or recipe books. The book can also be opened 360 degrees without "losing" the cover, ideal for a book that needs to be held in one hand or placed into a book holder. In either case, there is no spine to break and the pages will not be curled or folded over, increasing the longevity of the book.

As the coil comes in several sizes, this binding method can easily accommodate a large range of page counts, from 8 to 400 inside pages, plus the cover. The binding can also be placed either on the top or on the left edge, allowing for flexibility in the use of the piece.

Wire-O binding is a more professional and sturdy finish than plastic coil binding and it comes in many colours.

Finally, Wire-O is ideal for books that require section tabs. However, due to the variability in the number and positioning of the tabs, this is only available through a custom quote request.
