What SigLoch is

SigLoch makes digital post press finishing machines for short run print: perfect binders for bookbinding and die-less flatbed cutters for any shape.Built in Trivandrum by Bindwel, they are designed so a digital print bureau can finish a job in-house instead of outsourcing it or turning it away.

THE PROMISE

The first sample is right

A rejected sample does not cost you a sheet of board. It costs you the order behind it. SigLoch machines are built so the sample you hand over is the one that gets approved.
