An alternative to ring binders for hard copy binding, using metals posts instead of a ring mechanism.

'O' Ring Binder 'D' Ring Binder

Benefits:

  1. Good for holding a small number of sheets.
  2. Special sizes with the posts positioned at different spacing are possible.
  3. Neat presentation especially for press releases, business proposals and mailings.
  4. Can be used for restaurant menus.
  5. Most popular sizes A4 and A5 but any size is possible.
  6. Choice of post length up to 25mm. Standard are 3, 6, 8, 13, 20 and 25mm. Beyond 25mm, the product does not perform well.
  7. Press fastener caps come in a choice of standard colours.
  8. Cover can come with a cut-out so that a title sheet shows through.

Limitations:

  1. If extra sheets are to be added, pages have to be removed,
  2. Contents do not lie flat when opens like a ring binder.
  3. More expensive than a conventional ring binder because of the manufacturing processes involved.
