DL Stapled Bound Brochures: Professional, and Made to Travel

Our DL stapled bound brochures are sleek, modern, and perfect for delivering your message in a way that's easy to carry. Measuring 99 mm x 210 mm, these tall, slim booklets stand out instantly, even if they're handed out at an event, included in a postal campaign, or displayed in a counter stand.

We've printed DL stapled brochures in Croydon for restaurants wanting takeaway menus, DL stapled brochures in London for travel companies creating holiday itineraries, and DL stapled brochures UK-wide for everything from product catalogues to real estate listings. If you're after something professional, cost-effective, and memorable, in case it's for a small run in your local area or a nationwide campaign, this is a format worth your attention.

The Size: Why DL Works So Well

A DL brochure measures 99 mm x 210 mm, one-third of an A4 sheet. The slim, vertical format naturally draws the eye because it's different from standard A5 or A4 booklets. That makes it ideal for DL stapled menus, DL event programmes, DL travel brochures, and DL product catalogues.

There's also a practical benefit, DL stapled brochure printing UK-wide is cheaper to post than larger sizes. You can send them out without folding, keeping them neat and professional while cutting down on postage costs.

Stock for Inside Pages: How It Feels in the Hand

Before someone even reads a word, the paper stock gives an impression. A light uncoated stock feels friendly and informal. A heavier silk or gloss stock feels polished and premium. We offer a full range so you can choose exactly what suits your brand:

  • 90 gsm uncoated – Lightweight, natural texture, and easy to write on.
  • 115 gsm silk – Smooth sheet with a gentle sheen
  • 120 gsm uncoated – Tactile and writable.
  • 130 gsm gloss – Bright and shiny.
  • 150 gsm silk – Premium and clean.
  • 170 gsm silk – Smooth and professional.
  • 170 gsm uncoated – Thick and natural finish.

For budget DL stapled brochures in Croydon, 150 gsm silk is a safe choice, it is smart, durable, and affordable. If you're after eco-friendly DL stapled brochure printing, our uncoated papers are all FSC-certified and fully recyclable.

Binding Fold / Edge, How It Opens

Our DL stapled brochures use classic saddle stitching, folded sheets stapled along the spine. You can choose:

  • Long edge bound –opens like a standard booklet and works for most designs.
  • Short edge bound – Opens on the short side and is handy if your design runs landscape or you like the look of a horizontal flip.

Most local DL stapled booklet printing in London sticks to long-edge binding, but short-edge can really make a design stand out if you want something less common.

Covers, First Impressions Count

The cover is your handshake with the reader, it sets the tone before they even open it. You can match your inside paper or go for something thicker. We offer:

  • 90 gsm uncoated
  • 115 gsm silk
  • 120 gsm uncoated
  • 130 gsm gloss
  • 150 gsm silk
  • 170 gsm silk
  • 170 gsm uncoated
  • 250 gsm silk
  • 250 gsm uncoated
  • 350 gsm silk

Page Count, From Brief to Detailed

We can print DL stapled bound brochures from 8 pages to 72 pages (including the cover). The total page count must be in multiples of four, that's just how folded sheets work.

  • 8–16 pages – Perfect for short menus, event schedules, or price lists.
  • 32–48 pages – Great for catalogues, travel brochures, and detailed guides.
  • 72 pages – The maximum for stapled binding; beyond that, we suggest perfect binding for strength.

Lamination for Style and Protection

Lamination does two things: it protects your cover from marks and scratches, and it changes how it feels.

  • No lamination – Natural look and eco-friendly
  • Gloss lamination (one or both sides) – Shiny and bright
  • Matte lamination (one or both sides) – Smooth with less glare
  • Soft touch lamination (one or both sides) – Velvety feel and premium finish

For luxury DL stapled brochures, soft touch is a favourite. Use spot UV for shine and extra finish.

Embellishments, Stand Out in Style

Do you want to make your brochure impossible to ignore? Add an embellishment:

  • Spot UV high build – Raised and glossy highlights.
  • Spot UV low build – Flat and glossy accents.
  • Single-sided gold foil – Classic and elegant luxury.
  • Single-sided silver foil – Sleek and modern.

We've created foil-embellished DL stapled brochures for high-end brands, they always stand out on a counter or in someone's hand.

Turnaround, From Urgent to Planned

We understand deadlines, sometimes you've got months, sometimes you've got hours. That's why we offer:

  • 1 working day – Perfect for smaller runs.
  • 3–4 working days – Best for larger quantities.

If you need same-day DL stapled brochures Croydon or urgent DL stapled booklet printing in London, we'll confirm feasibility before you place your order.

Quantities, Small or Large Runs

We can print from 25 to 50,000 DL stapled brochures. That means we're just as comfortable handling a small batch for a one-off event as we are producing tens of thousands for a national campaign. Whatever the number, every copy gets the same level of care.
