Unibind to unveil SlideBook, the easy editable photo book, at Photokina 2010
Create and recreate photo books with Unibind’s newest innovative binding solution
Puurs, 20-09-2010 – – Unibind, specialist in binding systems for photo prints and personalization solutions for photo books is to present a unique binding method at Photokina 2010. Updating photo books is now possible thanks to SlideBook, the editable photo book from Unibind. The SlideBook – which will be launched at Photokina 2010 – uses a revolutionary binding method, developed in collaboration with The Eastman Kodak Company. It combines the Unibind PhotoBook with a new binding profile that secures the prints and is slid into the cover spine. The SlideBook means users can now edit their photo books without a specialist binding machine.
Unibind and Kodak will present this new binding system at Photokina. Brigitte Peleman-Vantieghem, CEO at the US office says: “The success of Unibind is built on our innovative power. Research and development are very important to us. The main part of our R&D projects are market- driven and are based on demands from our partners. When Kodak contacted us with a need to have an easy-to-bind photo book that could also be updated, we agreed that the best place to introduce this innovative product would be the Photokina fair.”
How does the SlideBook work?
The SlideBook overcomes all the common obstacles to binding photo prints. With the SlideBook’s unique binding method, photo prints are anchored inside the ‘slide’ profile by simply perforating them and securing them on the binding pins. The profile is then closed and slid into a Unibind PhotoBook, where it is fixed and hidden in the cover spine.
The SlideBook has universal appeal because anyone can use it – no special binding system or binding knowledge is required. The ‘slide’ profile can be used again and again – just slide it out of the cover, open it up and add new prints. Which means users can update their photo books as often as they like.
In addition, the perforation process guarantees perfectly aligned photo prints, creating an impeccably presented photo book. The SlideBook is available in various sizes.Photokina takes place September 21-26 in Cologne. Unibind can be found in Hall 4.1, at booth F040-G049.
