Beautifully Printed Books with a Personal Touch
Books aren’t just documents – they’re objects of meaning. Whether you’re printing a historical memoir, a short-run technical guide, or self-publishing your first title, we make sure your printed book is something you’re proud to share.
The Value of Print
We believe print has lasting power. Unlike digital files that disappear into folders, a printed book holds value – it’s kept, passed on and displayed. That’s why we handle every book with care, helping you design and produce something that will be read, remembered and revisited.
Publishing with Purpose
Publishing a book gives you credibility. Whether you're sharing knowledge, recording history or offering insight into your field, going to print puts your ideas into the world in a tangible and lasting way. We support both publishers and self-publishers, helping you manage everything from short runs to ISBNs.
Sustainable, Local Book Printing
All our book printing is done in-house at our Halifax print studio. We use recycled and FSC-certified papers, carbon capture schemes and a toner system that’s 94% compostable. It’s all part of our mission to offer responsible, local printing without compromise.
Binding Options
We offer a wide range of finishing options depending on your book's purpose and audience:
- Saddle-stitched (stapled spine): Ideal for 8–36 pages. A great entry-level option.
- Perfect bound: Clean, square spine for books 32+ pages. Gives a polished, professional look.
- Wiro-bound: Allows books to lie flat. Perfect for guides, training manuals and workbooks.
- Half-Canadian binding: Wire binding hidden behind a wraparound cover.
We also accommodate niche finishes including bolts, combs and tape-bound options when needed.
Print Experience That Matters
Our senior team has decades of experience in book production, from commercial printing to award-winning reprographics. We understand how to get the best from your artwork and your words. We bring those traditional repro skills into the digital age with precision, care and attention to detail.
