Reinforcing Materials

GS5L

An innovative solution engineered to replace Super and capping paper with a single material and workstation while reinforcing the book block from head to tail. The crepe layer allows the spine to be rounded and backed after application. This material has been patented by our partner company, Dr. Günther Kast GmbH & Co.

NEW FEATURE! The LBS production team now has the ability to mark the head or foot of your slit capping materials with a line of color. This new feature will reduce orientation issues when feeding book blocks into your casing-in machine and will eliminate the need for you to mark your capping materials with a pen or marker. To learn more, contact your LBS account manager at 800.247.5323.
