Bookbinding is one of humanity’s oldest storytelling arts, dating back over 2,000 years to hand-stitched scrolls and parchment wrapped in wood or leather. With the invention of the printing press in the 15th century, bound books became more accessible—transforming bookbinding from a craft into an industry.

By the 20th century, spiral coil binding emerged as a flexible, durable, and cost-effective solution for manuals, reports, workbooks, and other documents that demand functionality and style. Its ability to lay flat or fold back completely makes it a go-to choice for schools, government agencies, and commercial printers.

At PEL Manufacturing, we’ve built our reputation on delivering high-quality spiral coil binding supplies and equipment—offering a wide selection of coil sizes, colors, and custom configurations. Whether you need spiral coils, heavy-duty punching dies, or precision inserters, we’re proud to provide American-made products backed by decades of hands-on expertise.
