endsheets for perfect binding
The quality of perfect binding is constantly improving, bringing what many playfully call not-so-perfect binding closer to the strength and flexibility of sewn bindings and making it a more viable option for hard cover books. LBS offers three endsheets designed to combine the speed and ease of perfect binding with the durability, permanence and value of cased-in editions.

endsheet FAQ
Q Why do I need special endsheets for perfect binding?
A Book binders choose endsheets designed to work with their perfect binder to eliminate one or two steps in the binding process without sacrificing quality.
The Universal™ and Combined™ endsheets take advantage of the cover feeder on automatic perfect binders to apply both endsheets and cloth spine lining without extra effort or time.
Folded Tabbed Endsheets are attached as the book is being bound. The paper tab protects the endsheet's fold during milling plus the extra layer helps to fortify the endsheet at the hinge of your book.
All three of these endsheets eliminate the need for tipping-on folded endsheets after the book is bound. The Combined and Universal endsheets also eliminate the need to cap or line the spine.
If you prefer to tip-on your endsheets, LBS can help you with our Folded Single Folio and our complete offering of Reinforcing Materials.
