Customized Spiral-bound Business Planners

Spiral-bound planners possess unique features that make them extremely popular for note-taking, writing, and drawing:

1. Easy Flipping: Spiral-bound planners use coils to hold pages together, facilitating easy writing without being hindered by which hand is dominant.
2. Flat Writing Surface: The design of spiral-bound planners allows them to lay flat when open, providing a stable surface for writing.
3. 360-Degree Turn: Pages can be turned 360 degrees, allowing the planner to be folded completely to the back, which is handy in limited spaces.
4. Tear-Out Without Fallout: The coil binding allows for pages to be torn out without compromising the integrity of the planner’s main structure.
5. Durability: Spiral-bound planners typically use sturdy covers and pages to ensure durability over long-term use. Options for waterproof or tear-resistant protective covers are available to enhance durability.

Spiral-Bound Business Planner Product Series:

PU Hardshell Cover​

• Features: The PU material simulates the appearance and feel of natural leather, offering elegance and a rich texture with numerous variations. Available in nearly a thousand different patterns and colors, the use of stiff, thick Cardboard as the core adds a touch of luxury.
• Durability: The hardshell cover is more robust and durable than soft or non-laminated paper covers. It provides better protection for the pages inside, preventing creases or damage. The hardshell cover offers excellent support and security, helping to maintain the notebook’s shape and appearance.
• Suitable Scenarios: Ideal for business settings, it presents a high-quality and professional look that is more formal in business environments, making it an excellent choice for corporate gifts or company events. It superbly enhances the corporate image.
• Examples: National Cheng Kung University Research and Development Foundation / Elsevier

 

PU Soft Leather Cover

• Features: The soft leather cover is more flexible and comfortable. The main difference from the PU hardshell cover is the thickness of the Cardboard used in the core.
• Durability: While it may be slightly less durable than hardcovers, it still offers a reasonable level of durability.
• Suitable Scenarios: PU soft leather is lighter than other materials, which helps create lightweight, portable notebooks. This makes them convenient for users and ideal for general daily note-taking and planner enthusiasts.
• Example: COLORR

 

Printed Hardshell and Soft Leather Covers

• Features: Capable of printing complex patterns and high-quality images.
• Durability: Hardshell covers offer relatively better durability. Soft leather is slightly more delicate but still maintains adequate durability.
• High Design Quality: This provides superior print quality that can accommodate more complex designs, patterns, and colors. Printed items can be laminated for primary stain and water resistance. Additional design effects, such as gold stamping, can be applied after lamination, enhancing the visual appeal of these notebooks.
• High Customizability: This can be customized in various ways, including company logos, slogans, and special printing effects.
• Suitable Scenarios: For general daily note-taking, student use, or designers seeking stylistic diversity.
• Example: BankPro

 

Fine Art Paper Hardshell and Soft Leather

• Features: Fine art paper that retains the tactile sensation of the paper’s fibers is utilized. The unique texture of this art paper enhances the presentation of brush strokes, textures, etc., elevating the artistic value and adding depth and dimension to the product.
• Durability: Fine art paper covers focus on tactile feel and do not undergo lamination to preserve the fiber feel. Consequently, these products are prone to soiling and damage. Even with hardshell support, fine art paper is relatively fragile, and without a cardboard backing, it becomes even more vulnerable.
• Examples:
  Hardshell: Fonterra
  Soft Leather: Warner Music
