We love zines—they’re the gritty underdogs of print marketing. Unlike glossy, corporate designs, zines are bursting with colour, creativity, and an organic, unpolished charm that draws people in. Available in A4, A5, and A6 sizes, they’re compact enough to slip into a pocket or stack neatly in a magazine rack.
Our Zine Printed Booklets are bound with staples, a method known as saddle stitching. Ideal for projects ranging from 8 to 64 pages, these booklets are created by folding sheets of paper and stapling them along the fold line. The result is a sleek, professional appearance that remains cost-effective and visually striking, making it the perfect choice for a wide range of applications across various industries.

Low-res looking imagery, cut-and-paste elements, bold font choices, and unusual layouts are a nod to the days when layouts were manual and printing was a more laborious and extravagant process.
Nowadays with the invention of incredible design software, creating a zine is comparatively easier. They are brilliant when you want to stand out from the crowd by choosing to be deliberately different. They make fantastic lookbooks and portfolios or publications for specific shared interests and hobbies. Zines are a great style of publication for indie magazines.
If you're looking for something that appears disruptive, a zine is the publication style for you. They are rough and ready but in a deliberate way. Their style reflects the days when underground publications were illicit so were quickly spun up, laboriously photocopied, and dog-eared from being shared. Today, they look less handmade but pack a real punch in their ability to look out of place enough to pique interest. Read more about zines on our blog.

It is recommended you do not place words, page numbers, or images too close to the edges of each page. We would recommend a safe zone on all sides of at least 5mm for saddle-stitched brochures.
We highly recommend applying lamination to covers with heavy ink coverage. Lamination serves as a protective layer for the cover, preventing any potential marking caused by ink transfer or rubbing off during transit or storage.
