The frog pocket - a clever detail in notebooks

The frog pocket in the notebook

Notebooks are not just for writing - they often offer clever extras that make everyday life easier. One such detail is the frog pocket, a flexible slip-in pocket that keeps things organised. But where does this unusual name actually come from?

The name "frog pocket" is probably derived from the throat folds of male frogs during the mating season. Similar to these expandable cavities, the frog pocket in a notebook can adapt flexibly and offers space for loose sheets, receipts or business cards. This practical solution can be found in many high-quality notebooks - be it from Moleskine, Leuchtturm1917 or Filofax.

The frog pocket is a well thought-out and appreciated addition to many notebooks. The choice of the right adhesive tape is crucial if it is to realise its full functional added value. FIXUM products offer the necessary adhesive strength and flexibility to integrate these practical details permanently and securely into notebooks.

Adhesive tape in sheets - the ideal solution for bookbinders

FIXUM offers high-quality adhesive tapes that are specially tailored to the requirements of bookbinding. They are an unbeatable solution for precise and economical gluing, especially in sheet form. They enable flexible processing, can be used immediately and are ideal for manual applications. However, double-sided adhesive tapes also play an important role, especially when attaching frog bags.

Our adhesive tapes, which are also available in sheets:

Not just for frog bags - other applications for sheet goods

The versatility of FIXUM sheet material goes far beyond the frog pocket. It also offers the necessary flexibility and strength for other important bookbinding tasks, such as joining endpapers and book covers.

The endpaper - a stable connection between the cover and book block

The end paper plays an essential role in bookbinding. It connects the cover to the book block, stabilises the book and also protects the first and last pages. It also gives the book a high-quality look as it covers the inside of the cover. In modern book production, the endpaper is often produced separately, decorated and only joined to the book block at the end.

Whether for gluing frog pockets or joining endpapers, FIXUM sheet material offers a flexible and efficient solution for a wide range of bookbinding applications. In this way, bookbinders can ensure that their products are not only functional but also of the highest quality.
