Premium Branding on Every Pour: Rigger Hang Tags for Kainui Brew Co
Kainui Brew Co is a standout Northland brewery with a loyal following and a bold, creative range of small-batch beers. Known for crafting fresh, taproom-filled flavours in Kerikeri’s lush vineyard country, their team needed a smart, premium way to label their takeaway riggers, without sacrificing flexibility or style. Already trusting us for keg collars and tap badges, they came back for hang tags that could handle the chill and still look sharp in hand.
We designed and printed 2,000 custom rigger tags, tailored to their brand. Each tag was printed on 300gsm Top Flight carton board, sturdy enough to handle fridges and cold storage without curling or soaking through. We ran the job on our Konica Minolta AccurioPress for sharp CMYK print on the front and a clean black-only reverse, perfect for staff to jot down batch details. Once printed, tags were die-cut using our standing brewery die, an efficient choice that keeps the job fast and cost-effective while still delivering a quality result.

Custom Notebook Printing NZ – Premium Branded Notebooks for Your Business
Make Your Brand Part of the Everyday
Custom notebooks are one of the most practical branded products a business can invest in. Unlike disposable giveaways, they get used daily — keeping your name in front of clients and staff long after the event is over. Whether you’re a law firm, corporate, education provider, or creative organisation, a well-designed notebook is a professional, functional gift that stays on desks, in bags, and in hands for months. Based in Wellington and delivering NZ-wide, we make it easy to create notebooks that showcase your brand with impact and utility.
Professional Quality, Built to Last
Our notebooks are made locally with a focus on quality, flexibility and speed. Choose from A4, A5, or bespoke sizes, with saddle-stapled or wiro binding to suit your needs. Covers can be printed in vibrant full colour, or finished on premium coloured boards like Colourplan for a subtle, professional edge. Inside pages are fully customisable, whether that’s branded templates, calendars or simple lined sheets. We use digital print giving you short-run flexibility with cost-efficient bulk production. See how we’ve helped organisations like Succeed Legal, City Gallery Wellington, and Wilderlab bring their brands to life in notebook form.
Another 5-star review we’re proud to share:
My favourite printers! I have worked with the Colourcraft team for 5+ years on a huge variety of print projects. Colourcraft produces high-quality prints, has great communication, is always timely, and all of that at a great price. Knowing the work is in trusted hands makes my life as a graphic designer so much easier.

Field-Ready and Built to Last: Custom Notebooks for Earth Sciences New Zealand
When Earth Sciences New Zealand (formerly GNS Science) needed a set of tough, functional notebooks for their field teams and outreach efforts, they came to us. With over 150 years of applied science behind them, from seismic monitoring to marine research, they needed a product that was practical, portable and professional. These notebooks had to hold up to field use, feel premium in hand and reflect the credibility of New Zealand’s top-tier earth and water science authority.
We took that brief and delivered. The finished product: 1000 sleek A6 notebooks, screen printed in white ink onto rich black 250gsm Notturno stock, an uncoated premium paper known for both durability and texture. Inside, the 36 internal pages were digitally printed on 100gsm Advance Laser, featuring a 5mm dot grid—ideal for diagrams, sketches, and real-time observations in the field. Binding was kept simple and cost-effective with a clean saddle-stitch, creased and trimmed to size for pocket carry.
This wasn’t just a notebook—it was a functional tool, built for scientists, made to withstand rugged use, and designed to be handed out with pride at industry events. Screen printing the white ink gave the covers a sharp, high-contrast finish that digital methods simply couldn’t match.

Premium Impressions: Custom Key Cartons for Faisandier Group
Faisandier Group is a Lower Hutt-based property developer known for building high-quality townhouses across the Hutt Valley. They've been with us since day one—literally. When the company launched in 2016, they knew who to call for print. So when the team came to us with a packaging problem, we listened. They were handing over keys to new homeowners (often first-time buyers) in cheap, generic plastic boxes. It didn’t reflect the care and quality they put into their homes. They needed something better. Something worthy of the moment.
We designed and produced a bespoke two-piece key carton crafted specifically for Faisandier’s handover experience. Each box is built from thick, 320gsm Popset Black card, screenprinted with a subtle spot UV varnish that delivers a black-on-black branding effect, understated but premium. The cartons are diecut to final shape, supplied flat and unassembled, giving Faisandier flexibility for storage and use. It's a small format (85 x 65 x 30mm), but it hits hard on presentation.
Once we delivered, Simon left us a google review that says it better than we ever could:
“The finest printer in all the land! I've been working with Colourcraft for years and they've never let me down. Conversely, I have let them down many times with ridiculous requests due to my lack of planning and preparation and they have never complained or cut me loose, amazing really.
When all those other printers get wobbly legs and start dropping out of the race, crying out for water and complaining that their legs are sore... Colourcraft are gliding majestically out in front, effortlessly, unmercifully crushing their competition with the greatest service a customer could ever hope for.
Their expert advice and guidance has steered me in the right direction when my hair-brained ideas could have ended in absolute disaster. They know their stuff. I'm stirred to write a poem about how much I appreciate Colourcraft but I think this review will lose all credibility if I do, so I shall refrain. I'd give them 6 stars if Google would let me. Colourcraft is Wellington’s printer of choice.”

Design Tribute to Crown Lynn: Emporio Coffee’s 8oz Cup
Wellington’s Emporio Coffee asked us to create artwork for their 8oz takeaway cups. The design was part of a series celebrating Crown Lynn, New Zealand’s iconic ceramics brand. Our job was to capture that heritage look while keeping the Emporio brand consistent and true to their style.
We weren’t printing the cups ourselves — Emporio had a specialist manufacturer lined up — but our role was to create the production-ready artwork. That meant carefully adapting a Crown Lynn pattern to work on a tapered coffee cup. Because the cup narrows towards the base, we had to pre-distort the design so that once wrapped and formed, it would appear perfectly proportioned. We also colour-matched the pattern directly from a ceramic sample to capture the authenticity and detail that Crown Lynn is known for.
Here’s what the team shared in their Google review:
“Emporio Coffee has been working with Colourcraft since 2016 when they became our neighbours in Walter Street. We often require a broad range of labelling and promotional material varying from large to small quantities. Ben and the team have always been incredibly helpful, friendly and professional. They are very accommodating and always make time to discuss our projects, create solutions and produce very high quality products. I would highly recommend Colourcraft.” – Simon Maguire, General Manager
