Our Board Books are Built with Quality, Durability & Safety in Mind
Board books must be printed and bound directly on thick paperboard. Board
books must be durable and made to withstand the chomping, chewing,
bending and attempted tearing that babies and toddlers love to make
part of their early reading experience.
All of Pint Size’s board books are printed directly on a thick
paperboard, creased, folded, collated, bound, trimmed and then
round cornered and sometimes shaped. We take great pride in our USA
board book factory and our use of premium USA materials. We make
sure that every board book that we produce is made using safe
materials and processes that provide the highest level of quality
and production consistency. We regularly safety test our board
books with a certified independent testing lab in order to insure
that our board books are always in compliance with United States
CPSC requirements for all ages.
RFQ regarding boardbook:
1. What is considered a board book?
A board book is a type of children's book printed on thick
paperboard.
The paperboard is printed and used for both the cover and the
interior pages.
Board books are very durable and consequently are intended for
small children, who often tend to be less gentle with books.
2. Why Board Books are Safer for Babies
Designed for babies from birth to age 3, board books are safer than
their counterparts. They fit perfectly in their little hands, can
be easily held, turned, stacked, and tossed. However, babies also
like to explore everything with their mouths, which is one of the
reasons why board books are safer. You’d rather have them chew the
corner of a board book than munch and swallow pieces of paper.
Additionally, Pint Size Productions uses safe materials that are
made in the USA. Our board books are coated with either gloss UV or
Aqueous matte coating. And we never laminate our board books due to
the hazard of using film lamination on a baby book. We also
regularly safety test our board books with a certified independent
testing lab to make certain our board books are always in
compliance with the United States CPSC requirements.
3. How many pages should a board book be?
When setting up your board book design, choose facing pages in your
layout software. When generating the PDF for printing, choose
“Spreads” to generate the final printing files. Kids' board books
are usually between 8 and 12 spreads (16 to 24 pages) with color
pictures, and either no text or text up to about 300 words.
