Give your lookbooks, catalogues and company literature a natural, tactile finish with uncoated brochures. Their soft, matte appearance suits both image-rich layouts and text-heavy pages, while the writable surface makes them a practical choice for guides, forms and workbooks.
Choose from 8 standard sizes or enter a custom size to suit your content, with portrait and landscape options available.
Print in full colour for photography and illustrations, choose Pantone for specified brand colours, or select black-only printing for straightforward price lists, manuals and technical documents.
Two paper stocks are available: Uncoated and Premium Uncoated. Both have a soft, matte appearance and are easy to write on, making them ideal for training guides, order forms and brochures your readers will annotate. Choose Premium Uncoated for a more substantial feel and a smoother surface.
For a decorative cover detail, add Spot UV to highlight logos and headlines, or choose foiling for a metallic accent.
Order your uncoated brochures today, printed and finished at our Southampton facility.

Our standard uncoated brochures are bound together via saddle-stitching. This method assembles brochure pages by first nesting several folded double-leaf spreads on top of each other (starting with the middlemost pages and finishing with the outer cover leaf).
The brochure pages are then stitched together by threading lengths of metal wire (similar to staples) through all pages along the central crease line.
Better Printing can also provide uncoated brochures with other binding methods including perfect binding – call us to discuss your requirements!
You can view our page count options in the table below. Each paper sheet (or ‘leaf’) of your brochure will have two printed pages (pp); one on each side of the paper. Brochure covers consist of four pages, and are included in addition to the page counts listed in the table below.
If you’re still unsure about page counts, or you need a different number of pages to the options here, call us on 023 8087 8037 to discuss your requirements.
Better Printing offers A5 (148mm by 210mm) and A4 (210mm by 297mm) sizes as standard. Please note that these measurements refer to the size of the brochure when closed.
Custom uncoated brochure sizes are also available; so if you have a different size in mind, call us on 023 8087 8037 to discuss our bespoke options.
The right print method will depend on a number of factors; including the product type, quantity and turnaround time you require.
Better Printing can produce your order on either litho or digital, with both available in-house. Our sales team can recommend the most cost-effective solution for your needs and will confirm your preferred method before going to print.
We recommend supplying artwork as single pages in the same order as you want them to appear in the finished brochure. Please avoid supplying your artwork in printer’s pairs or double page spreads, as this may extend production times of your print order.
All uncoated brochures are produced in portrait orientation (with the stitching along the longer edge of the brochure) as standard, but you can specify landscape orientation if required at the checkout stage.
Yes – we can print on recycled stock for a more eco friendly brochure. Just get in touch with our friendly team today!
