Simple, fast, beautiful. Whether you’re binding a personalized presentation or a photobook, every Fastback® bind begins with three fundamental building blocks: a binding machine, an adhesive spine strip and an elegant cover.
Binding machines
The Fastback range uses a thermal adhesive bind to create strong, beautiful tape binding, and bookstore-quality hardcovers and paperbacks (perfect binding).
Spine strips
Engineered adhesive strips are the foundation of this more
durable bind. There are three principle categories: tape binding strips, Perfectback® strips (for paperbacks) and hardcover strips.
Covers
There are three types— Presentation Covers for tape binding, Fastback Hardcovers for hardback presentations and Photobook Hardcovers for photobooks. All are available in a wide array of shades and textures to add richness and style to your books and presentations.
