Bookbindery and Restoration

"Because the book, which is squeezed into the hand press with the iron pressing tool, no longer seems to be a union of many sheets, but rather a single piece, the pressing tool always seems to me to be a symbol of my work. Yes, it multiplies the strength of my hands and reminds me that the good old handicraft is still the best" (Meister des Pressbengels).

I have been working enthusiastically with the Diller bookbindery for 30 years. For over 50 years it has stood in Frankfurt am Main for masterfully handcrafted bindings. Since 2017, bookbinding master craftsman Ingmar Pons has been running the company at the usual high quality level.

I recommend the Diller bookbindery as an artisan bookbindery for your individual and high-quality book covers, from simple brochures to leather binding with embossed titles. The wide range of materials, from leather, parchment or coloured paper, offers us almost unlimited possibilities for the design of the book covers. In addition, books in need of repair are professionally renewed according to old bookbinding tradition in order to preserve. The production of folders, slipcases, boxes or cassettes made to measure complete the spectrum of binding art. Of course, the Diller bookbindery also offers you a binding service for magazines or a printing and binding service for your final thesis and company presentations.
