Choosing the materials for your project is one of the most exciting parts of the process, the paper stock, cover material, binding style, and other seemingly small details, all play into the overall feeling of the project and message to the audience. Explore the material samples and custom options below, if there is something you have in mind but cannot find in our samples or the vendors provided, let us know and we’ll help find what you are looking for.
Paper Stock
The cover papers we stock have been selected to compliment our interior paper stocks. If you don’t see a cover stock that feels right for your project, consider sourcing a custom paper stock and send it directly to our factory. For detailed information, see the custom stocks section.
Paper Sample Book
Our sample book includes each of our interior paper stocks, cover stock, and endpapers. Each stock is printed double-sided with 4 Color and 1 Color (Black Only) so you can see how images reproduce on each paper stock. The interior papers we stock have been thoroughly tested in our pressroom and bindery. We carry a wide variety of stocks ranging from lightweight newsprint-inspired papers to more substantial fine art papers, categorized into two price tiers, Standard and Premium.
