The offset book print and finishing market is changing. The runs are shorter, but the demand for quality and differentiation has never been higher. Take your book finishing to the next level with the asterEL Sewn Book Finishing. It's easy to use, easy to maintain, and provides the luxury feel of sewn book blocks at a reasonable cost, and Book Automation can help you configure the best solution.

Why consider sewn book blocks for your book finishing?

The story begins with usability. Sewn book blocks lay flatter, making them perfect for applications where the book should remain open, like textbooks, cookbooks, and instruction manuals.

Durability is another improvement over other book binding methods. Because the pages are sewn together before being wrapped in the cover, the book pages stay secure. Pages are less likely to come loose from the binding, even after extended use. From children's books to reference books, sewing the book block ensures that no matter how many times the book is opened and closed and no matter how many bookmarks are placed in its pages, the binding will remain secure.

Finally, sewn books are elegant and flexible as a value-added option to book manufacturing customers. While the book-finishing process may look more complex, the asterEL is the quickest entry-level solution for creating competitive differentiation for your customer’s book needs.
