What is wire binding?
Also known as wiro binding, spiral binding or coil binding, wire binding is our most popular bound product. Pages are punched on one edge (the 'binding edge') and securely bound together with a C shaped metal wire.
The size of the wire and the number of holes punched varies in line with your page count and spec.
The binding edge used depends on the document orientation and paper size. For portrait wire bound documents, left long and top short edge binding is available. For landscape wire bound documents, left short and top long edge binding is available.
For Tabloid documents, only short edge binding is available.
What is wire binding used for?
Wire bound documents can lay flat and pages can be turned easily, making it an ideal choice for proposals, presentations, portfolios, reports, manuals, diaries, planners and more.
It's our most popular bound product for a reason - it's flexible, professional, secure and cost-effective.
Which document sizes are available?
4.25 x 5.5" (Quarter Letter), 5 x 7", 5.5 x 8.5" (Half Letter), 8.5 x 11" (Letter), 11 x 17" (Tabloid)
