Full Color
Illustrated Covers
NOW Available - Economical Color Hardbinding
Expand beyond the limits of foil!

Authors enjoy these binding benefits:

• Free Spine Imprint and back imprint - full outside color wrap.

• High End Appearance let your imagination be your guide on a colorful journey.

• Economical alternative to Standard or Deluxe cover.

• Low-Cost Graphic Cover Design - many times free. 

• Choose how much or how little color you use. 

• Tailored for marketing in a "full color world". 

• Library Corners - unless other desired.

Gregath's basic color printed hard covers carry a clear lamination for eye-catching appeal and long-lasting durability.  From bold graphics, one of a kind text and colorful photos to Coats-of-Arms – this is a great way to add color and interest to your hard cover presentation!  Additionally, from a marketing standpoint, many bookstores will not stock books on their shelves, unless they have a  full color cover.  This is also a great way of tying books in a (family) series together but yet make them almost completely different as well.  With the 4-color cover you have the front, back, and spine you can design and add different elements into included in the binding charge, rather than a specific, set size in foil on front OR back, of with deluxe covers.

This full color process is a cost effective hard binding alternative to the dust jacket. Note, however, full color hard covers do not include flap or end sheet imprint/printing in standard pricing.  Special end sheets can be ordered, but the most economical is white blank end sheets.  All books are guaranteed for quality of workmanship and materials.

Books, as part of an ongoing series, can be recognizably part of a series - without being exactly the same bindings. Each book has it's own "soul", celebrate it.

Perfect for books up to 2" thick. Standard offerings are based on the project size. Contact us if you wish a particular service, or selection.

Standard color binding methods based on your actual book size:

• Sewn - books up to 3/8" thick (appox. 200 pages)

• Double-Fan Adhesive - books up to 2" thick (600-800 pages)

We offer full color softbinding methods in a variety of types as well.

Please note that, though LBI standards do not endorse color lamination, this product meets or exceeds as many standards for quality, durable binding as we could find.
