Fastbind Elite ™: the heavy duty glue binder

Fastbind Elite: Hard Cover Book

With the Fastbind Elite, it is easier than ever to bind hard cover books.

Just insert your cover. Block it. Insert the content between endpapers. Turn and apply the glue to the spine. Turn back and release the book. Apply pressure to form the groove on both sides. Your book is ready.

This is the perfect solution for on-demand and personalised books.

• No adjustments between sizes from matchbox up to A4+.
• No adjustments for thickness, up to 50 mm or 1.97 in
• The only supplies needed are the endpapers.

Elite: Soft Cover Book

With the Fastbind Elite, making a soft cover book takes less than 30 seconds.

There are no adjustments for format or thickness, from 1 to 1000 pages and up to A4+.

Fastbind Elite is equiped with our special PGO system. PGO is a silent dust-free roughening unit. It allows you to get the strongest bond even with heavy stock and coated papers.

Soft cover books can be, for example:

• Fully printed wrap-around covers (paperback novels, A5 paperbacks)
• Wrap-around plain ready-to-use A4 covers, full or with a window (financial reports, administrative documents)
• Wrap-around premade A4 covers with a transparent front (student papers, office presentations)

Fastbind provides all the consumables for these three soft cover options, including printable covers.

Elite: Stripe-back Book

If you don’t have a large format printer and still would want a fully personalised cover, the strip-back is the solution for you.

You print your front and back covers separately, in the format of your book or document.

You pick the Fastbind stripe of your choice, depending on the book thickness and your preferred color.

You bind you book using the stripe, as shown in the side video.

You get a fully personalised document! No need for special equipment.

This is the best option for student papers and office documents.

Elite: Tear-off Pad

With Fastbind Elite, you do not require a cover to bind your papers together. Just reuse the silicon protective sheet from an adhesive paper and use it as you would the cover. After binding, you can easily remove it from the spine. You can reuse the same silicon paper again and again to avoid waste.

You create your pad in less than 20 seconds on any Fastbind perfect binder. Use this technique for:

• Corporate slips (orders, deliveries, etc) with carbon paper
• Mini-message pads
• Recycling the back of used paper for a draft tear-off block!

Elite: Transparent Soft Cover

With Fastbind Elite and all Fastbind hot melt binders, you bind books with soft covers under 30 seconds without any special set up between works.

Fastbind transparent covers for standard formats (letter or A4) are bound the same way as wrap-around covers and customized covers.

One size fits all document thickness and you can trim the excess cover with the optional trimmer. There are several colors available.

This is the perfect solutions for binding regular documents for administration, offices and for student papers.
