Built for employee onboarding

Training manuals with wire binding make it easy for attendees to follow along during orientation and training sessions. Pages are attached to a durable wire coil that allows the manual to lay completely flat on a desk or table. This hands-free convenience helps employees take notes, practice tasks and reference procedures without holding pages open. With 8–352 pages available, you can include company policies, process guides, safety protocols, role-specific instructions and helpful resources. Choose left binding for traditional manual layout or top binding for flip-style reference guides.

Durable covers for workplace use

Select from 3 cover options to match your training needs: self cover that matches your inside pages, premium 250 gsm cover for added durability or premium plus 300 gsm laminated cover for maximum protection against daily handling. The laminated option helps training manuals withstand coffee spills, frequent use and transport between training rooms. Choose matte paper for easy readability or glossy paper to make diagrams, photos and charts stand out. Wire binding is available in classic silver or modern black to complement your company branding.

Training manuals with wire binding are great for employee onboarding, process documentation, safety guides, standard operating procedures and reference materials. The wire binding makes it easy to set the manual down flat on a desk without losing your place, which helps employees focus on learning rather than holding pages open.

Your training manual can have 8 to 352 pages (including covers), in increments of 2.

The cover paper depends on your selection of inside paper.

Self Cover: Your cover is printed on the same paper as your inside pages for a simple, cohesive look.

Premium: A thick, 250 gsm uncoated cover stock that provides an elevated look without lamination.

Premium Plus: Our highest-quality 300 gsm laminated cover, offering durability and a professional, premium look.

Wired binding is a style where wire loops are inserted through holes that have been punched through the edge of the booklet's cover and pages. We offer a choice of classic silver or modern black wire.

The choice depends on how you'll use your training manual. Left binding is the traditional choice for manuals, guides and reference materials. Pages turn from right to left like a book. Top binding works well for standing reference guides or materials displayed on an easel. Pages flip up and over.

Sample manuals are not available, but you can order a single manual. This is a helpful way to see how your printed training manual looks before you order a larger amount.
