Six Things You Should Know Before You Buy a Unibind Binding System

by Die Cutting Machine Buddy on October 24, 2011

Unibind is an ideal solution for companies that are looking for a high quality, professional document binding system. Presentations bound with Unibind have an elegant professional appearance that is unmatched by any other binding system on the market. However, like any binding system, there are a few limitations to the Unibind system. This article is designed to help you better understand some of the limitations of the Unibind binding system so that you can make a fully informed purchase.

1. All Unibind binding covers utilize a steel spine for the edge of your book. The steel spine provides extra strength to your bound documents. However, because the spine is steel it is not flexible like the spines of some other binding styles. This means that Unibind cannot be considered a lay flat binding system (you can’t open it flat onto a table. If this feature is important to you, comb binding, coil binding or wire binding might be a better option for you.

2. Unibind covers are only available in a few sizes. Letter size Unibind covers are the most common and are designed for use with 8.5” x 11” documents that are bound on the long side. Unibind covers are also available for half letter sized documents (8.5” x 5.5” bound on the 8.5” side). Unibind SteelBack spines are available in 8.5” and 11” lengths for binding the most common sizes of documents (letter, legal, half letter and 11” x 17”). However, if you anticipate binding other sizes of documents then Unibind is probably not the best option for you.
