Notebooks worth putting your name on

A good, branded notebook gets used, kept and seen — putting your name in front of customers, delegates, students or staff long after it’s handed out. At Langham Press, we produce custom printed notebooks that are practical enough to use every day and finished to reflect the quality of your brand.

From corporate notebooks and event giveaways to personalised notebooks for schools, colleges and organisations, choose from a wide range of papers, cover finishes and binding styles, including wiro and perfect binding.
Whether you want a premium cover for a corporate gift or a practical lined notebook for everyday use, we’ll help you choose the right specification for your purpose and budget.

Produced by our experienced team in Cambridge, our custom printed notebooks can be supplied in quantities to suit your project, with delivery available across the UK.

Paper sizes
  • A4 (210 x 297mm) - plenty of writing space for meetings, training courses and workshops, particularly when used alongside printed handouts.
  • A5 (148 x 210mm) - our most popular notebook size. Large enough for comfortable notetaking but compact enough to fit easily into a bag or laptop sleeve, making it ideal for conferences, delegates and corporate notebooks.
  • A6 (105 x 148mm) - a compact, pocket-sized option that works well for promotional giveaways, events and handy desk jotters.
  • Bespoke sizes - available when you need something made specifically for your project.
We can also produce custom notebooks to fit alongside other printed materials, such as presentation folders, conference packs or presentation boxes. Tell us how the notebook will be used and we’ll help you choose the most practical size.
Paper stock
  • Inner pages: 80gsm to 120gsm
  • Covers: 250gsm to 400gsm
  • Glued pad backing boards: heavier board for support
  • Sustainable options: recycled and FSC® certified papers and boards available
For bound notebooks, the inner pages are held together using a binding such as wiro or perfect binding and are designed to remain part of the book. The cover uses a heavier stock to protect the pages and give the notebook a more substantial feel.

For glued pads, the individual sheets are glued together along one edge and designed to be easily removed after use. A rigid backing board supports the pad and makes it easier to write on without a desk or other hard surface underneath.

For the writing pages, 80–90gsm is a practical everyday choice that keeps larger page counts economical. Moving up to 100–120gsm gives the pages a more substantial feel and can reduce show-through when writing on both sides.

Recycled papers and FSC®-certified notebooks are available on request, subject to the materials and specification selected. Please specify FSC® certification when requesting your quotation or placing your order.
Binding
  • Wiro binding - double-loop wire through punched holes
  • Bio-coil binding - biodegradable alternative to conventional binding coils
  • Glued pad binding - sheets glued at the head for easy removal
Wiro binding uses a formed metal wire through punched holes along one edge. It allows the notebook to open completely flat and fold back on itself, making it a practical choice for meetings, conferences, training and note-taking on the move.

Bio-coil binding offers similar flexibility using biodegradable binding coil. It’s worth considering when reducing the use of conventional plastics and choosing more sustainable materials are part of the brief.

Glued pad binding is different from a bound notebook. The sheets are glued together along one edge and designed to tear away individually. It’s ideal for desk pads, order pads, meeting pads and branded promotional notepads where pages are intended to be removed as they’re used.
Lithographic Printing
  • Lined or plain
  • Fully bespoke page designs
  • Branded internal pages
  • Custom headers, footers and page numbering
  • Page count adapted to the intended use
For custom notebook printing in Cambridge, Langham Press can personalise the inside pages as well as the cover. Unlike an off-the-shelf notebook, the internal pages can carry your branding, repeating headers or footers, page numbering or a completely bespoke layout designed around how the notebook will actually be used.

That could be a branded meeting notebook with spaces for attendees, actions and owners; a site-visit pad with fields for dates, job numbers and sign-off; a training workbook with exercises built into the pages; or a weekly planner designed around the way your team works.

The page count can be tailored too, so whether you need a slim conference notebook, a practical notepad or a substantial year-long planner, you only include the pages the job needs.
Quantities
  • Start with just 20 notebooks
You don’t need to order hundreds to create a notebook that’s properly yours. Our minimum order is just 20 copies, making custom printed notebooks practical for small teams, one-off events, conferences and individual projects.

Shorter runs are typically produced digitally to keep smaller quantities cost-effective, while lithographic printing can become more economical as quantities increase. We’ll recommend the print method that gives you the right balance of quality and cost.

Lithographic printing — litho for short — is a great choice when you need a larger quantity of high-quality print with consistent colour from the first copy to the last. It’s particularly well suited to brochures, books, magazines, reports and other publications where quality and cost across a longer run matter.

The process uses printing plates to transfer ink via a rubber blanket onto the paper. It takes more time to set up than digital printing, but once the press is running it can produce larger quantities very efficiently and economically.

If your job could be produced either way, we’ll compare litho and digital and recommend the process that gives you the right balance of quality, quantity and cost.

Litho printing uses printing plates to transfer ink onto paper and is particularly suited to larger print runs, offering excellent colour consistency, sharp detail and a wide choice of papers and finishes. Digital printing prints directly from a digital file without the need for printing plates, making it ideal for shorter runs, fast turnaround, personalised printing and projects where quantities or content may vary.

Not generally. Digital printing allows us to produce very small quantities economically, so if you only need a handful of copies, that’s fine. Litho printing has more setup involved and becomes more cost-effective as quantities increase. Tell us what you need and how many you’re likely to use, and we’ll recommend the most sensible quantity and print method for your budget.

Quickly. Send us the details of your job and we’ll usually get a quote back to you the same working day. If you know the quantity, finished size, paper and finishing you need, include those too — but if you’re not sure, that’s fine. Tell us what you’re trying to produce and we’ll help you work out the best specification.

Not necessarily — it largely depends on how many copies you need. Litho has higher setup costs because printing plates must be produced and the press prepared, so for smaller quantities digital will usually be more economical.

As the quantity increases, however, the cost per copy can fall significantly, making litho particularly cost-effective for larger print runs. It also offers excellent colour consistency and a wide choice of papers and finishes.

As a general guide: shorter runs tend to suit digital, while larger runs often favour litho. Tell us what you’re producing and how many you need, and we’ll compare the options and recommend the most cost-effective way to print it.

For all jobs we provide a pdf proof so you can check that everything looks right before we print the job. A printed proof for you to check can be built into the estimate so you just have to ask when you request your quote.

Straight-forward. You tell us your requirements and we send a quote. Once you are happy you send us your artwork, we then provide a pdf proof for sign-off. We then print, finish and despatch your job.

FSC®-certified print available on request, alongside recycled paper options, vegetable-based inks, 100% renewable electricity and our waste-reduction initiatives.
