Wire Bound Booklets
Wire Bound Booklets are custom printed booklets bound with Wire-O, a twin loop of wire that runs through punched holes along the left long edge. Each booklet has separate printed front and back covers. The booklet opens completely flat and the pages fold right back on themselves, so it stays open on a desk or bench and can be written in comfortably. This is the binding many people call spiral or wiro binding, but it is a twin loop of wire, not a plastic coil.
They are ordered by schools, training providers, trades, community groups, small businesses, cooks and makers for workbooks, training manuals, recipe books, planners, presentations, reports and instruction books. Full colour is printed on every page, both sides, from the customer's own artwork.
Ordering is simple: choose the size, inside stock, cover, laminate, wire colour, page count and quantity, upload a print ready PDF, and approve the emailed proof before printing begins.

A wire bound booklet is custom printed and bound with Wire-O binding, a twin loop of wire that runs through punched holes along the left long edge. It has separate printed front and back covers, no staples and no glued spine. The booklet opens fully flat and the pages fold right back on themselves, which makes it easy to write in on a desk or bench. This wire binding is what many people call spiral or wiro binding, but it is a twin loop of wire, not a plastic coil.
