So why do we recommend 250 Micron in thickness when it comes to book covering. The simple answer is that is is the toughest and the best on the market and will also literally turn your softback book into a hardback book.
With the costs of schoolbooks and library books ever increasing it is becoming more and more obvious that we have to figure out a way to make them last longer. Conventional slip on dust jackets are very handy to put onto a book but they don't protect the structure of a book as they are more of a jacket rather than a product that will actually adhere and bind to a book. They are also removable and can quickly get damaged thus allowing the book to get damaged too.
Whereas if you put on a self adhesive cover such as a 250-Micron DIAMONDclear it will be permanently adhered to your book, be glossy clear, turn your softback cover into a hardback cover thus making it last longer and keep it better protected and keep the book in circulation for a much longer period. Obviously there is a slight difference in the price between a slip on jacket and a DIAMONDclear, but in the long term the DIAMONDclear will be a better investment in protecting your book due to quality and protection it gives over any other type of book protection that is available.
Libraries, Colleges and Schools have been using this product for years and have saved money and waste by using DIAMONDclear products. With books been such a high investment it is best practice to protect them as best you can and also to keep them in circulation for as long as possible too. This is better for your pocket and also for the environment too.
