Slipcases are a fantastic way to add class, style, and extra protection to your hardcover books. They are made of stiff card stock like a box, but tailored to the size of your book, with one side left open so that when the book is inserted, only the sine is revealed. They can be made to house one or more books.

Binding for Hardcover Books
By default, we recommend “sewn hardcover” binding rather than the simple glue-only binding which other printing services offer. Sewn hardcovers give a vastly superior result both aesthetically and practically with a negligible difference in cost. Your choice will depend on your budget, the style and length of your book, and other factors, of course. But this hardcover binding option achieves high-end results which always impress. You can open a sewn binding flat with no damage to the spine, too, which makes it ideal for appreciative browsing and repeat reading.
How We Make Sewn Hardcover Binding
In this binding, we organize the interior pages into “signatures” which are then printed, cut, and sewn, and glued into a hard casing covered with cloth or paper and then a printed sheet which forms the cover. Sewn hardcover binding is the most resilient and professional-looking, especially if you add special treatments such as embossed titles, debossed titles, soft touch lamination, gilt edges in gold, black and other colors, and metallic foil stamping; or a custom-made printed dust jacket, a slipcase, marker ribbons, and sewn decorative headbands.
