A6 Stapled Booklet Printing in Croydon, London and The UK

A6 stapled booklets are small, handy, and useful. If you need event programmes, pocket guides, church service sheets, or mini brochures for your business, they're easy to carry and simple to print. Without hassle, just a neat, affordable booklet that does the job.

At I You Print, we've been printing A6 stapled booklets in Croydon for years. From a few copies for a local event to 10,000 for a trade show, we know how to get it done right. If you are in a hurry, we offer same-day A6 booklet printing in London and fast delivery across the UK.

Here's how you can customise your booklet to make it just right for you.

Lamination Options

Lamination's not a must, but if your booklet's going to be handled a lot, passed around, stuffed into pockets, and pulled out again, it's something worth thinking about. It adds a layer of protection and gives the cover a different feel.

We offer the full set of lamination styles:

• No Lamination – Just paper, clean and simple. No shine, no fuss.
• Gloss Lamination (Single or Double Sided) – Adds a slick, shiny surface that really makes colours pop.
• Matt Lamination (Single or Double Sided) – A flat finish, smooth but without any gloss. Looks understated and modern.
• Soft Touch Lamination (Single or Double Sided) – This one feels velvety. If you want your booklet to feel premium without looking flashy, this is a solid choice.

For menus, product guides, or anything that's going to get flipped through a lot, we'd say go with gloss or soft touch. For something more subtle, Matt does the trick.

Cover Stocks

Your cover is the first thing people see, so it's worth choosing a paper stock that suits the tone of your booklet. We've got a wide selection from light, flexible covers to thicker, more substantial options.

• 90gsm or 120gsm Uncoated – Light, natural feel. No coating, great if you want to write on it.
• 115gsm / 150gsm / 170gsm Silk – Smooth, slightly coated, not too shiny. A safe, classy middle ground.
• 130gsm Gloss – Bright and reflective. Great for high-colour or photo-heavy covers.
• 250gsm / 350gsm Silk or Uncoated – More like a card than paper. These are ideal if you want your booklet to feel sturdy in hand.

If you're going for an A6 product catalogue, a school info booklet, or a church magazine, we'd recommend something around 170gsm silk or higher for the cover, enough thickness to feel durable without being bulky.

Turnaround Times

We get it, sometimes you need it fast. Really fast.

That's why we offer:

• Same Day Express – For when it's last-minute.
• 1 Working Day – Quick, but not panicked.
• 3–4 Working Days – Our standard for most jobs. Ideal if you've got a bit more breathing room.

We've built a bit of a reputation for same day A6 stapled booklets in London. If you're nearby in Croydon, just give us a call, if we can make it happen, we will.

Inside Page Stocks

The inside of your booklet matters just as much as the cover, depending on what it's for.

Here are the stocks we use for the internal pages:

• 90gsm Uncoated – Light, paper-y feel. Like what you'd find in a novel.
• 115gsm Silk – A step up in weight, with a soft finish.
• 120gsm Uncoated – Slightly heavier, with that natural texture.
• 130gsm Gloss – Shiny and good for image-heavy pages.
• 150gsm / 170gsm Silk or Uncoated – More premium feel. Great if you're printing something important like a manual, software guide, or brochure.

If you're doing something visual, like a mini trade show catalogue or A6 menu booklet, go with silk or gloss. For simple programmes or memorial booklets, uncoated can feel more respectful and clean.

Embellishment Options

These are the finishing touches that make a cover pop. A little something extra to catch the eye or feel a bit special under the fingers.

Here's what we offer:

• Spot UV (Single or Double Sided, High or Low Build) – This is where specific parts of the cover get a clear gloss shine. Great for logos or titles.
• Gold Foil (Single Sided) – Adds a classy, warm metallic finish. Often used for keepsake items like wedding or funeral booklets.
• Silver Foil (Single Sided) – Modern and sharp. Looks brilliant on dark covers or corporate designs.

You don't need embellishment but if you're printing something meaningful, or just want to make a stronger impression, it can be worth it.

Binding Edge

Sounds minor, but it changes how your booklet is read.

• Long Fold Edge – Like a standard book, opens side to side.
• Short Fold Edge – Opens top-to-bottom, like a notepad. Great for horizontal designs or menus.

Both are neatly stapled. It's really just about how you want it to function.

Page Counts

Because of how stapled booklets are made, the page count has to be in multiples of 4. That includes the cover.

We print anywhere from:

• 8 Pages – Ideal for event programmes or a quick price list.
• Up to 72 Pages – Good for manuals, catalogues, or detailed guides.

If you need help figuring out how many pages you've got, drop us a message. We'll help you sort it out.

Print Quantities

We can print as few as 25 copies or as many as 50,000.

• Doing a local fundraiser? We've got you.
• Need national distribution for your product booklet? No problem.
• Want a cheap A6 booklet printing option in Croydon for your café menu? We've done loads of those.
