Saddle Stitching

Cost-effective & Timeless.

Saddle stitching involves inserting forms on top of other forms over a saddle and driving stitches through the gathered piece's "backbone". It's a timeless, cost-effective binding method. To enhance your basic saddle-stitched book design, consider incorporating other E & M finishing services such as die cutting, foil stamping and embossing/debossing, folding, and gluing. E & M now offers child-safe clinched staples on all stitched work.
