Fixing brochure pages with a metal staple is a low-cost method. This is commonly used for small numbers of pages (up to 96 pages, depending on paper thickness).

Two types of staples are available:

Regular staples

Loop staples

Advantages:

  • Low-cost.
  • The brochure can be opened to 180 degrees, or even 360 degrees if necessary.
  • Techniques to transfer images from one page to another can be applied.
  • To ensure durability it can be stapled with four or five staples (for example, for schoolbooks).
