PUR glue is still a bit more expensive than other adhesives, but in our opinion it is still the best form of perfect binding on the market.
Our latest Wohlenberg, which was supplied by Manroland, is equipped with a 16-station Sprinter gatherer and 60i three-knife trimmer. It is capable of producing up to 7,000 books per hour.
The main enhancement is the improved automated set-up. Information can be fed into the system from a computer screen, which adjusts the mechanics within the binder to a new size. Automation extends right through to the three-knife trimmer unit.

I swear by my... Wohlenberg PUR binder
When we founded the company, we decided that PUR binding would be the only form of perfect binding that we would provide. Wohlenberg embraced PUR binding technology early on, and this is the third binder we have purchased from the company.
