Hard cover case binding produces premium books with a thick, strong, and durable cover (the name comes from the hard outer ‘case’ used for each book).
At CMYK Colour Online we are the hard cover case bound book printing specialists. All our books are printed and bound in Australia (including the covers). Because of our unique assembly and binding process, we offer case binding at cheap, rock bottom prices without any compromise on quality.

This automated and innovative system allows for seamless binding and covering of case bound books in various formats and spine sizes without the need for time consuming sewing, stitching, hand assembly or manual gluing.
The hard covers for our case bound books are assembled using ultra-thick 3mm boxboard with a special in-built patented steel spine. The cover shell is wrapped (on the outside) with your printed design, with blank lining sheets (black or white) on the inside. We offer a range of finishes for the outside of case bound covers, including gloss laminate, matt laminate and linen finishes. For the internal/text pages we offer a wide range of stock weights and finishes to choose from. Our online pricing includes pages from 44pp through to 210pp (stock dependent).
