To get the most out of your Unibind Binding System it is important to understand the different types of supplies that are available from Unibind. Whether you are looking for a great way to make a hard bound document, to create a professional looking book with your own printed covers or would like to bind a high quality report with protective plastic covers on the front and back, Unibind has the spines and covers to get the job done. Here is a quick overview of the types of Unibind Binding Supplies that you can use with your machine:
- Perhaps the most unique product offered by Unibind is the Steelback Spine. Steelback spines are designed to give your presentation and reports a professional look while still allowing you to use your own covers. They include a colored spine with a removable paper liner. Once your document is bound, the paper liner can be torn off. The end result is a custom bound document, with your own cover set. This means that unlike thermal binding you are not required to buy a single piece cover for your reports and presentations.
- Unibind also offers a huge selection of hard covers which they call Steelbooks. Steelbook Hard Covers are a one piece hard-cover-case with thermally activated steel spine. You simply insert your pages into the spine of the hard cover book, drop it into your Unibind system and in approximately a minute you have a finished hard cover book. Steelbook Hard Covers are available in letter size, half letter size and there is a new line of photobooks that are bound on the 8.5″ side.
- Unibind SteelCrystal covers have a clear PVC front and back cover with an attractive colored steel spine. Steel Crystal covers are a one piece cover, meaning that your cover and binding spine are integrated into on piece. This makes these supplies exceptionally easy to use, simply place your document into a cover and place one or more covers in the UniBind system and the rest is automatic!
- SteelMat covers are similar to the SteelCrystal line of covers but have a frosted front and back cover (as opposed to the clear front cover on Steel Crystal covers). Steel Mat covers are a unique thermal binding cover that has a Matte (frost) front and back cover with an attractive colored steel spine. The “frosted” front cover is transparent so your image will show through, and offers a scratch resistant finish for longer life. They have a thermally activated adhesive in the spine that securely binds most paper stocks securely.
- Finally, Unibind offers a really unique line of Portfolios and DuoBinders that are incredibly unique. The portfolios offer a Velcro secured front flap in front of a box that is 15mm, 30mm or 45mm thick. DuoBinders are an adaptation of the portfolio in that they have the same box type storage with a ring binder mechanism in front. DuoBinders are perfect for packaging demo materials, samples, catalogs and more…
This is a quick summary of the different types of Unibind supplies that are available on the market. Of course, there are numerous sizes and colors available to suit almost any presentation that you want to bind. Check it out for yourself and see just how great your reports and presentations can look.
