Why Choose Plastic Comb Binding?
Plastic comb binding is a versatile option for documents that need to look professional while remaining practical to use.
Opens flat for easy reading
Comb-bound documents can open flat, making them useful for manuals, training materials, workbooks, reports and reference documents that need to be read or written in regularly.
Pages can be added or removed
Unlike permanently glued or stitched binding, a plastic comb can be opened so that pages can be added, removed or replaced when a document needs updating.
Suitable for business documents
Plastic comb binding is commonly used for reports, presentations, proposals, manuals, training guides, workbooks, handbooks and other multi-page documents.
Add protective covers
Clear front covers and card or other backing covers can be used to protect the finished document and give it a more professional appearance.
Practical for regularly updated documents
Comb binding is particularly useful where documents may need to be revised or updated over time, such as training manuals, internal procedures and working documents.

Plastic comb binding is suitable for a range of multi-page documents and can be combined with printed covers, backing boards, tabs and other finishing options.
Document sizes
- A4 documents

Binding edge
Documents can generally be bound along the long or short edge, depending on the finished format and layout.
Page capacity

Covers

Artwork
Keep important text, images and other essential content clear of the binding edge so that punched holes do not interfere with your artwork. If you are unsure about the correct margin, ask us before sending your artwork.

Printing and Plastic Comb Binding in Wimbledon
Need your documents printed and bound rather than simply bound?
SW19 Design and Print can produce the printed pages and finish them with plastic comb binding, helping you manage the complete job through one local print service.
We can advise on suitable paper stocks, document covers, page layouts and finishing requirements before production. This can be particularly useful for business reports, manuals, presentations, training materials and workbooks. See also our booklet and brochure printing.
If you already have print-ready artwork, you can send your files for a quotation. If you are unsure how your document should be prepared for binding, our team can advise you.
Plastic Comb Binding or Wire Binding?
Both plastic comb and wire binding can produce professional documents that open flat, but they suit slightly different requirements.
Plastic comb binding is useful when you want the flexibility to open the binding and add, remove or replace pages.
Wire binding provides a clean, professional finish and is often chosen for reports, presentations, notebooks, manuals and documents where a more permanent presentation is required.
If you are unsure which option is right for your document, contact SW19 Design and Print and we can advise you based on the number of pages, paper, format and intended use. See our wire binding service for more information.
