Kit & Assembly

 Small final touches to your book or project can make all the difference. From trade to fine, leather-bound books, our internal team works exclusively with print and bind kit assembly. We are ready to bring your project to life.

Simply provide your assembly guidelines, and we will offer pricing and mockups to get your project off the ground. Some of the primary handwork and kit and assembly work we have done in the past includes placing inserts and belly bands, labeling and bundling books, creating book sets, shrink-wrapping book sets, and placing books and/or sets in slips or clam shells.

Design Implementation

Please provide mockup images of your kit or assembly in JPG, PNG, or PDF format, along with any relevant specifications (orientation, distance, color, etc.). For simpler projects, providing written instructions may suffice, but additional visual mockups will reduce proofing and production times. Once the project is approved, APB will provide photos, videos, or other physical proof of assembly as requested.

Project Minimums

We implement a $75 minimum setup fee for handwork and kit and assembly. This allows us and our team to fully understand your project's set-up and mockup. This initial setup fee also allows for more transparent, lower "per unit" fees for projects as you scale.

 Production Timelines

Project timelines will be impacted by the complexity and scale of the kit and assembly, as well as the delivery of all components. Please contact your APB project manager for real-time production timeline estimates. In some cases, we may be able to offer expedited services.
