Buy NZ Made champions New Zealand businesses by licensing the iconic Kiwi trademark, representing over 1200 locally owned and operated brands. When their leadership team changed in 2021, they needed new business cards something sharp, on-brand and built to last. As proud long-time campaign members and trusted print supplier to them, they turned to us to bring that vision to life.

We laid out the graphics and printed a set of 90 x 55mm cards on sturdy 350gsm Silk Matt stock. Then we then added a scuff-resistant matte laminate to protect them from wear. The finishing touch? A bold spot UV varnish applied, glossing the NZ Made icon and subtle typographic lines directly onto cards unrprined background. This created a sharp contrast between the high-gloss elements and the matte background, a crisp white-on-white effect that feels premium and looks even better in hand.

This wasn’t a finish we’d done before, with no samples to share and no guarantees. But the Buy NZ Made team trusted our eye for detail. That calculated risk paid off. The result? Striking business cards that honour an iconic brand, and hold up beautifully out in the real world.

Another 5-star review we’re proud to share:

Kingsley Attwood, a photographer and designer with a bold, creative vision, came to us with something truly unique: a full set of custom-designed playing cards, with each of the 52 cards featuring its own illustration. Kingsley had already poured a ton of work into the design and needed a print partner who could bring it to life with care, precision, and premium quality.

We provided tailored guidance to help Kingsley prepare the artwork for production, covering how to build bleed, organise file sequencing and format everything correctly using Photoshop (which isn’t exactly known for being print-friendly). We reviewed initial layouts, offered practical advice and ensured every file was press-ready before kicking off production. Clear communication and upfront planning made the process smooth, even with a project as detailed as this one.

The final sets were printed on our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070, chosen for its pinpoint accuracy and consistent colour output. We used a durable 300gsm satin stock and applied a scuff-resistant laminate to give the cards a premium feel and long-lasting finish. Each card was then precision-cut on our digital die-cutter to ensure exact sizing and alignment across the set.
