The Bench Room
A document binding workshop built around the comb, the punch and the trimmer
Peterhanun Limited is a Hong Kong document services company that treats binding as a craft rather than a checkout counter. Our bench room in Sheung Wan holds a punch rail, a comb opener, a paper drill, a guillotine trimmer and a rack of bound dossiers, and that is where every order is made by hand. We are not a copy centre and we are not a stationery shop. We take loose pages, loose drawings and loose annexes, and we return finished documents that hold together under daily handling in a busy office or a tender submission room.
Most of our work arrives from legal teams, engineering practices, training departments and administrative offices that need a fixed number of books on a fixed date. A tender pack has to be collated in the right order, punched on the right margin and bound so that the evaluating committee can open it flat. A training manual has to survive a full week of classroom use without pages escaping. An annual report has to look deliberate on a boardroom table. Those requirements drive every decision we make about paper, comb diameter and cover stock.
We keep the whole workflow under one roof so nothing is handed off to a stranger. Enquiries come through our contact page, we confirm a slot and a deadline, we print or receive the source pages, we punch and bind, and we deliver. Because the workshop is small and hand-driven, we can also absorb the awkward jobs that larger operations refuse: mixed paper sizes, tabbed divider sets, single-copy runs, foil-stamped covers and rebuild work on older bindings that are already falling apart.
Our stock bench covers Comb and Wire Binding, Tender Document Assembly, Training Manual Runs, Lamination and Foil Finishing, Same-Day Print Bursts and Archive Binding and Boxing. The sections below explain how each one fits together and how we plan a run from the moment a request reaches reception@peterhanun.lat.
