Companies around the world are constantly looking for new ways to customize their reports, presentations and proposals with a professional look that represents their brand. Current options for accomplishing this task include comb binding, wire binding, proclick, zipbind, unibind, spiral coil and thermal binding. However, in the world of binding new and innovative presentation solutions are extremely rare. That is what makes the Powis Parker Fastback Image Strip such an exciting innovation.

Fastback Image Strips are designed for use of businesses to enhance the image of bound documents by utilizing printed images on the strip itself. There are three distinct versions of the Image Strips that have been created by Powis Parker, however all three share the same basic physical dimensions. The Image Strip has a wider width that allows for a vibrant visible theme image when bound to the front cover of any document. The strips are available in one size (Narrow) and are accessible as a Branded, Standard Theme or Custom Design options. All three varieties of these strips are designed to work only with the Fast Back 9 binding machine and require no additional steps or preparation before binding. You simply place the strip in the Fast Back 9 binding machine and binding occurs. Plus, these strips meet the same environmentally friendly standards that Powis Parker has strived to uphold by having a built in sustainable feature that allows for a document bound with this strip to be recyclable.
