Books and stationery need more than standard logistics. From climate-controlled storage and letterbox parcels to pre-orders and B2B deliveries to bookshops, Monta has the solution to match your publishing brand. Whether you manage your own warehouse or outsource your fulfilment to us, we make sure every product reaches the reader on time.
Books are vulnerable to moisture, dust and temperature fluctuations, and high-quality stationery deserves the same level of care. Monta stores books and paper products in clean, climate-controlled conditions to prevent quality loss during storage. Packaging is matched to the product, from sturdy envelopes for paperbacks to bespoke boxes for limited editions and art books.
Climate-controlled storage: Books and stationery are kept in clean, dry conditions that protect against moisture, dust and temperature fluctuations.
Bespoke packaging: From paperback to limited-edition art book, every product gets packaging suited to its size and value.
Damage-free shipping: Monta uses packaging materials that protect against damage in transit, including on international shipments.
FIFO picking: Products are dispatched in order of arrival for accurate stock rotation per title.
Insert materials: Personalised thank-you cards, bookmarks or promotional materials are added to any order on request.
D2C and B2B delivery for publishers, self-publishers and online bookshops
From pre-order to bookshop, one fulfilment partner
Monta handles both direct-to-consumer orders and deliveries to bookshops and retailers from the same operation.

Monta combines this with the scale and European network needed to serve larger volumes and multiple sales channels at the same time.
Pre-orders with a release date: Set a publication date and MontaPortal automatically releases orders as soon as stock is available.
D2C and B2B: Monta delivers to both consumers and bookshops and retailers, including the right packaging and documentation for each channel.
International network: From warehouses in the Netherlands, France, Germany and the United Kingdom, you can reach readers across Europe quickly and cost-effectively.
Letterbox parcel: Paperbacks and thin titles are sent as letterbox parcels wherever possible, for lower shipping costs and more convenience for the customer.
Fan shop and merchandise: Monta also handles stationery, merchandise and personalised fan-shop parcels alongside your book range.
Real-time stock visibility: MontaPortal always shows your current stock per title, location and sales channel.
