Peleman Cover Tower — Thermal Binding Cover Storage System & a Binding Machine Stand 

Binding Products is the UK's authorised independent distributor for Peleman Industries, supplying the complete range of professional thermal binding solutions and accessories — including the Peleman Cover Tower. Formerly known as the UniTower and the Workstation, the Cover Tower is the official Peleman storage and workstation accessory designed specifically for use with thermal binding machines and Peleman binding covers. Whether you are setting up a dedicated document binding station in an office, copy shop, print bureau, or professional services environment, the Cover Tower is the smart, space-saving solution that keeps your binding workflow organised, efficient, and professional.

What Is the Peleman Cover Tower?

The Peleman Cover Tower is a purpose-built, dual-function workstation accessory for professional thermal binding environments. It serves two key roles simultaneously: as a dedicated storage system that holds up to four boxes of Peleman thermal binding covers, keeping them neatly organised and always within arm's reach; and as an elevated stand for your thermal binding machine, raising it to a comfortable working height on your desk or workstation.

Compact, stackable, and solidly built, the Cover Tower is engineered by Peleman to integrate seamlessly with their range of thermal binding machines — particularly the Thermal Binding Machine 8.1, 8.2, 8.4, and 120. It eliminates the clutter of loose cover boxes on your desk, reduces the risk of covers being damaged or misplaced, and creates a clean, professional binding workstation that enables faster, more consistent document production.

This product was formerly known as the UniTower and the Workstation under the Unibind brand. The product remains unchanged in design and function — only the name has been updated to align with the unified Peleman brand identity.

Technical Specifications

Two Functions in One: Cover Storage and Machine Stand

1. Thermal Binding Cover Storage System

One of the most common operational challenges in any busy binding environment is the management of binding cover stock. Boxes of Hard Covers, Soft Covers, Crystal Flex Covers, Spine Covers, and Cover Sets can quickly accumulate on a desk, creating clutter, slowing down workflows, and increasing the risk of covers being damaged, bent, or lost. The Cover Tower solves this problem directly.

With space for up to four Peleman cover boxes, the Cover Tower allows you to store your most-used cover types — sorted by size, spine capacity, colour, or material — in a single, structured unit that sits neatly beside or beneath your binding machine. Every cover type you need for your daily binding tasks is immediately visible and accessible, eliminating the time wasted rummaging through drawers or shelves for the right box. For offices and copy shops that regularly rotate between different cover types, this is a genuine productivity and quality-of-life upgrade.

2. Thermal Binding Machine Stand

The Cover Tower also serves as an elevated platform for your Peleman thermal binding machine. Placing your binding machine — particularly the larger Thermal Binding Machine 8.2, 8.4, or 8.1 — on top of the Cover Tower raises it to a more comfortable, ergonomic working height, reducing the need to bend down or awkwardly reach across a flat desk surface during busy binding sessions. This is especially beneficial in high-output environments such as copy shops, print bureaux, and corporate print rooms where operators are standing at a workstation for extended periods.

By integrating cover storage underneath and the binding machine on top, the Cover Tower creates a fully self-contained, purpose-built binding workstation from a single compact unit — minimising desk footprint while maximising accessibility and workflow efficiency.

Stackable Design — Scale Your Cover Storage as You Grow

The Cover Tower's stackable design means that as your binding operation grows — whether you add new cover types to your range, increase your order volumes, or expand your team's binding capacity — you can simply add a second (or third) Cover Tower and stack it on top of the first. This gives you a scalable, modular cover storage solution that grows with your business without taking up additional desk or floor space.

For copy shops, print bureaux, and large corporate offices that stock multiple cover types across different sizes, spine widths, and colours, stacking Cover Towers provides an organised, professional cover management system that keeps everything visible, accessible, and neatly categorised.

Pro tip: Dedicate each Cover Tower tier to a different cover type — for example, Crystal Flex Covers on the bottom, Hard Covers in the middle, Soft Covers on top — so your team can instantly locate the right cover for every binding job without interrupting their workflow.

Compatible Peleman Thermal Binding Machines

The Cover Tower is designed to sit perfectly with the following Peleman thermal binding machines on top — providing a stable, level platform and convenient cover storage beneath:

•       Thermal Binding Machine 8.2 (formerly Unibind S125 / XU138 / UniBinder 7.1) — advanced automatic crimping, binds 1–340 sheets

•       Thermal Binding Machine 8.1 — binds and crimps documents up to 120 sheets with innovative heat-first process

•       Thermal Binding Machine 8.4 (formerly Unibind S325 / XU338 / UniBinder 7.3) — high-capacity with 4 heating compartments, binds up to 340 sheets, 16 documents simultaneously

Who Needs a Peleman Cover Tower?

The Cover Tower is an essential accessory for any organisation that uses thermal binding on a regular basis. It is particularly valuable in the following environments:

•       Copy shops and print bureaux — high-volume binding environments where speed, organisation, and cover accessibility are critical to productivity

•       Corporate offices with in-house binding — teams that regularly produce bound reports, proposals, and presentations benefit from a tidy, always-ready binding workstation

•       Law firms and legal practices — where multiple cover types may be needed across different matter types and a clean, professional workspace is essential

•       Estate agencies — binding multiple property presentation packs daily requires fast access to the right covers without searching

•       Accountancy and financial services firms — regular production of bound financial reports and client packs in a professional setting

•       HR and training departments — producing bound onboarding packs, training manuals, and employee handbooks at volume

•       Educational institutions — schools and universities with regular binding needs for student reports, coursework, and teaching materials

•       Architects and engineering firms — large-format binding at volume benefits from an organised, dedicated workstation

•       Anyone managing multiple Peleman cover types — the Cover Tower is the professional solution for keeping your cover inventory neat, safe, and instantly accessible

Setting Up Your Peleman Cover Tower Workstation

Setting up the Cover Tower as part of a professional thermal binding workstation takes just a few minutes:

1.     Position the Cover Tower on a stable desk or workstation surface at your preferred working location.

2.     Load the four cover box slots with your most frequently used Peleman thermal binding cover types — organise by cover type, size, or spine capacity for fastest access.

3.     Place your compatible Peleman thermal binding machine (8.1, 8.2, 8.4, or 120) on the flat top surface of the Cover Tower.

4.     Connect your binding machine's power supply as normal — the Cover Tower simply elevates it to a comfortable height.

5.     Begin binding — all your covers are immediately below the machine, sorted and accessible. Replenish each cover box slot as stocks run low.

6.     Need more storage? Stack a second Cover Tower underneath the first, doubling your cover box capacity from 4 to 8 boxes.
