bookbinding

GT PRODUKTION

We also offer bookbinding services

Our various adhesive and brochure techniques enable us to cover formats between 75x105mm and 300x380mm.
The adhesive technique is the most common approach in bookbinding and is used from a book block thickness of 1.75mm. To bind a brochure or book, the sheets are joined using glue (Hotmelt or PUR), so that they form a book block. Usually, it is then inserted in a cover.
