What Is Coil Vs Comb Binding
Coil binding is a way to hold pages together using a spiral-shaped coil. This coil runs through small holes along the edge of each page, creating a strong but flexible binding.
One of my favorite splurges for material prep is a coil book binding machine. I spent years using the comb binding system but was frustrated when the binding was continuously pulled out. The coil binding is a game changer and I use it for everything. It’s great for adapted books, curriculum workbooks, or even staff materials.

Here's a short explainer of two popular Binding Options. 1. Smyth Sewn Binding is a durable binding that wraps completely around the book allowing for a printable spine. Ideal for hardcover books, planners and journals with 20 or more pages. 2. Spiral Binding is a continuous coil made of very durable plastic or metal. Spiral bound books open 360 degrees (cover to cover) which allow them to fold flat and lie flat for easier reference (or to hang on a wall). This binding style works extremely well with tabs and 250+ pages.
