Los Angeles Book Printing - Same Day Booklet Printing in Los Angeles

Looking for book printing services? Perfect binding is the most desirable type of binding and it is instantly recognizable especially since you see the soft cover books on the shelves of bookstores everywhere. The perfect bound cover has a very professional and clean look. Even though it has a sophisticated and appealing look, it is far less expensive than a hardcover book.

Perfect binding can be achieved by using 2 types of glues, one is PUR Adhesive and EVA Adhesive.  EVA glues which is a more older way of perfect binding are applied with a glue pot utilizing an applicator whereas the PUR Glue bonds to the book through a chemical reaction. PUR Glue is a newer, stronger way of binding the book especially since all the digital stocks have become more popular in recent years.

Although PUR glue requires half of the thickness be applied as EVA, it does cost more but at the same time PUR uses smaller amounts of adhesive over EVA. Gold Image Printing utilizes a top of the line machine, fully automated complete with touchscreen PUR Binder where set-up is faster and PUR application is more sophisticated and accurate.

PUR bound books are almost impossible to tear out whereas the EVA glue can constantly notice the book falling apart. PUR Perfect binding is not susceptible to hot temperatures once cured so you can store your book in the hottest places and it will not reactivate the glue but EVA glue will warm up and melt and jeopardize the spine of your book therefore falling apart.

Here at Gold Image Printing, we are exclusively using PUR adhesive on all perfect bound books, this investment has allowed us to grow in the book industry and also allowed us to utilize a lot of our specialty treatments to book covers such as foil stamping, digital foil or digital full color printing and use PUR glue with no issues with the book. Since we offer a variety of paper stocks, we can easily perfect any of these for the cover on your next book project without any issues.

Our bookbinding comes with a recommended 100 LB point glass cover. This is an eye-catching option for your paper. And great for full color printing. It’s a bit heavier and I have a gloss that covers it. Other products that go well with this are brochures or booklets. Another recommended paper stock would be our 100 ElLB last text. This is a standard glossy paper stock. Are you looking for an opaque base that allows the colors of your book to be richly presented? Then try the shiny finish.
