Built for the Spotlight: Oversized Presentation Cheque for Stuff Digital
Stuff Digital approached us to produce a large-format oversized cheque for a public award presentation as part of the Stuff Art Aotearoa Gold Award. The brief was simple: create a professional, visually clear cheque suitable for stage use and photography, delivered in time for a fixed presentation date.
The supplied artwork needed some technical adjustment to work at scale, so we reviewed the files early and flagged resolution limitations before production. We guided the client on appropriate sizing and proportions, ensuring the artwork was scaled correctly without distortion and prepared a clean PDF proof for approval. With clear communication and quick sign-off, the project moved smoothly into production.
The cheque was printed at 1200 × 540mm using our HP Latex 365, which produces sharp, consistent results with water-based, odour-free inks—ideal for indoor event use. It was printed one-sided in CMYK onto Avery Dennison MPI 2904 white gloss permanent vinyl, mounted to a 4mm paylite panel, and trimmed neatly to size. The finished piece was collected on schedule and used as intended for the presentation.
This was a straightforward project delivered efficiently, with a focus on accuracy, timing, and a clean final result.

Fueling Growth: Premium Booklets for Sportsfuel’s Quarterly Digest
Sportsfuel Supplements one of New Zealand’s leading online supplement stores—came to us with a clear mission: to create a high-quality, professionally printed booklet that would inform and inspire their customer base. They wanted a quarterly digest that reflected their values—trusted advice, premium products, and next-level service.
We kicked things off with a full mockup proof. It gave the Sportsfuel team a tangible feel for the final product and ensured every detail was locked before going to full production. Once approved, we printed 1,000 copies on Advance Laser 120gsm offset stock—a smart, quality paper that’s perfect for saddle-stitched booklets and delivers sharp text with crisp, clean colour.
Using our Konica Minolta AccurioPress C4070 (with inline IQ-501 colour control), we guaranteed flawless colour consistency from cover to cover. Each booklet was saddle-stapled, trimmed to size, and delivered on time—ready to ship out with Sportsfuel’s online orders.
A year later, Sportsfuel has printed three more editions, adjusted the magazine’s size to better fit their packaging, and is now exploring a 5x increase in volume. That’s real traction.
“Working with the team at Colourcraft has been an absolute pleasure! They were incredibly patient and helpful while assisting us to come up with our first print series. I would definitely recommend them and am looking forward to working with them again!” — Abbie Younger, Sportsfuel

Big-Day Ready: Custom Signs That Set the Scene
When Marilyn came to us, she was deep in the logistics of helping organise her son’s wedding, lending a hand with the kind of thoughtful details that make a big day feel truly special. Her role? Sort out two A1 signage panels: one to welcome guests, the other to lay out the seating plan in style.
Simple in theory—but as anyone who’s ever planned a wedding knows, the devil is in the details.
We worked closely with Marilyn to lock in the specs. We proofed the artwork, made sure everything was dialled in, then moved fast to deliver exactly what she needed—on time and stress-free.
Printed using our Roland XR-640, the panels came to life with rich colour and sharp clarity. We used Avery Dennison’s MPI 2904 vinyl—an ideal choice for vibrant, smooth application—mounted onto 4mm paylite for structure and a premium finish.
Marilyn said it best: “The signs did come out well and really fit in with the rest of the theme. Thank you for all your work to help get them printed.”
Need beautiful, reliable print for a big day? You bring the idea—we’ll handle the rest.

Printing Custom Labels for Emporio Coffee's Espresso Cleaner
Emporio Coffee has been a respected brand in the New Zealand coffee industry for more than two decades and we’re proud to call them clients (and neighbours).
Knowing only a clean machine can make a great espresso, it was only a matter of time before Emporio launched their own espresso cleaning product onto the market.
They came to us to lend a hand with the graphic design and print. Emporio had a clear vision for what they wanted, which made the layout of the graphics an easy task. After prototyping and refining the design, we printed a batch of matt permanent self-adhesive labels which featured a convenient peel tab for easy application.

Print Craftsmanship: Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori's Statement of Performance Expectations
At Colourcraft, we take immense pride in providing premium printing services with the attention to detail our clients deserve. In 2021 (and again in 2022), working closely with Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori, the Māori Language Commission, we printed their Statement of Performance Expectations report.
This vital document sets out the goals and expectations of Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori. As an organisation dedicated to promoting te Reo as a vibrant and evolving language, the commission entrusted us with the task of printing a visually stunning and durable printed copy of this significant report.
To create an engaging cover, we printed on a 300gsm Advance Laser stock and to enhance both the finish and durability, we applied a matt lamination to the cover creating a scuff-resistant soft-touch finish. Then we applied a spot gloss UV varnish, which created a glossy effect on elements of the covers graphics, adding depth and contrast to its design.
Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori's Statement of Performance Expectations is a testament to our commitment to delivering exceptional printing solutions that truly showcase the importance and impact of our clients' work. At Colourcraft, we hold our craftsmanship and attention to detail in high regard, and it is an absolute honour to have played a small part in this project, supporting Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori in their mission to strengthen New Zealand's national identity through the promotion and use of te Reo Māori.
