The Supercover

In books, the first thing that wears out is the cover. In spite of the fact that quality materials and modern technologies are used for its production, it is this element of any publication that is the most frequently used. Therefore, the most unstable. But, this issue is partially solved by the dust cover.

Supercover: the concept and purpose

A book jacket is, first of all, a special removable cover. It is also made of paper and fastened on top of the hardcover. First of all, it is wider than the format of the cover of multipage literature. To clarify: the added margin – these are folded flaps. Subsequently, they and fix the jacket on the edition. Most importantly, it is a striking element of the publication. Consequently, it is hard to imagine the book and printing market today without it.

Despite the fact that it requires additional funds for its manufacture, several tasks are solved at once.
 
  1. Firstly, an additional element of decor.
  2. Secondly, a new advertising space.
  3. Thirdly, to protect the publication from, for example, deformation, moisture and dirt.

In order to produce high-quality printing products for our customers, we primarily use the following types of papers:

  • coated;
  • offset;
  • designer paper.

In addition, for an additional protective function, printed sheets are laminated with a glossy or matte film, and then cut out the necessary size of the jacket. Subsequently, the resulting cover wraps books. This process is performed both manually and on special equipment. The method is determined by the desire of the customer, the budget and the volume of circulation.

Of course, there is another important factor: the extra margin is, above all, a great opportunity for advertising. This is especially valuable for publications that act as corporate printing, such as business souvenirs. Your clients, partners and, above all, your employees will appreciate your creative approach to dialogue and cooperation with such presentations.

What can be printed on the additional cover?

Today, modern printing, in particular publishing services, allow you to make an informative and, most importantly, spectacular cover dust cover on the binding. In developing the design, of course, use a variety of design methods. Among the textual information can be, for example:

  • title;
  • author’s name;
  • bibliographic data;
  • An abstract or review (in full or in abstract form);
  • reviews by critics;
  • insignia and awards (e.g., “Novelty,” “Top Sales,” “Nomination”);
  • links to Internet resources (websites, social media, and messengers, of course);
  • Barcode, ISBN, author’s mark;
  • publisher’s data.

Supercover: Variety

The jacket is mainly used for editions with a particularly artistic appearance. On the flaps, of course, there is small print information about the book, sometimes supplemented with small pictorial elements.

The binding of the jacket is divided into several types:

  • ordinary;
  • The multi-binding with the combined or parallel folding;
  • die-cutting of a shaped hole;
  • “banderole”;
  • double;
  • bookmark cover.

Most of our orders for the manufacture of a superfold are of the first variant, the ordinary type. Firstly, it covers the whole surface of the binding, and secondly, the flaps are turned inside the cover. Such a cover, most importantly, is the simplest and most budgetary, and, additionally, the protective and decorative functions are preserved.

To summarize. A hardcover cover is a kind of bright wrapper, which is applied to the binding and is held by means of flaps (bends).
